I want that old thing back…

Oh Amy.

What is going on? Although now I’m starting to believe that her slurred delivery of her hit Rehab is just a part of the stage show.

On another note, if M.I.A. and Diplo are bigging up B-more Club music, then new artist Wale is taking it there for D.C. I didn’t really feel him on the Roots’ “Rising Up”, except for the “Olson-twinnin’” line. That’s classic! As is his downloadable, Seinfeld-inspired, “Mixtape About Nothing”. Extra points to Julia “Elaine” Louis-Dreyfus for dropping in (for real!!!) on “The Vacation from Ourselves”. His subtle use of Go-Go is really nice! Check “The Grown Up”. Go-Go mixed with hip-hop/electro and Stevie flavor.

One more:

Big-up Mos Def for showing love to Jay Electronica AND Jon Brion at his Mos Def Big Band Carnegie Hall show. Beautiful.

Enjoy.
