JHENE AIKO - My Mine



The amazing Jhene has sang for everyone from Kanye to Drake to Kendrick Lamar.  She's getting her first album together now, but, for those who couldn't wait to get their hands on her music, she's released a mixtape entitled "Sailing Soul(s)".  The L.A. based singer receives love from all of those big names she's worked with and more. Addicted to the beats and hooks, but her voice haunts my mind both day and night.

NENEH CHERRY & THE THING - Accordion (MF DOOM/MADLIB cover)



Three decades after her 80's hit "Buffalo Stance", Neneh Cherry has decided to step back into the limelight.  The swedish daughter of jazz legend Don Cherry has teamed up with norwegian free jazz trio The Thing (not Ben Grimm).  The collaboration has an album set to drop on June 19 called The Cherry Thing.  This video is track 5 of 8 and features a cover of the Doom/Madlib hit "Accordion", off the Madvillainy album.  Night vision only enhances the bizzare idea of scat jazzing MF Dooms' lyrical genius.  Peep it!!
