Wow....what a pair...
Also on the cover, a mention of Queen Latifah: I saw her in Atlanta a few weeks ago singing from her new CD...jazz, blues, soul.....she was awesome. "Love and compassion are necessities, not luxuries. Without them humanity cannot survive."

I honestly think that Queen La is one of the best entertainers in hip-hop history. Few in the hip-hop generation transcend hip-hop from an entertainment standpoint. Will Smith (yes, Will Smith), Queen La, Mos Def, and heck, for that matter, Ice Cube and Ice-T are among the relative few. Good night, sweet Prince | 7 June 1958 - 21 April 2016

But it seems that she's taking this seriously and improving as a singer over time. tA Tribal Disorder http://www.soundclick.com...dID=182431 "Ya see, we're not interested in what you know...but what you are willing to learn.

But she has a presence and a charisma that elevates her talents as a singer (pretty good), actor (impressive, but then again, most MCs ARE actors) or MC (masterful).

Yes. I believe she understands her limitations (as Dirty Harry might say) as a vocalist and stays within herself. It'll be interesting to watch this next phase of her career. tA Tribal Disorder http://www.soundclick.com...dID=182431 "Ya see, we're not interested in what you know...but what you are willing to learn.

You guys should check out Joni's "Mingus" album. She does vocalese on some of his tunes. Lot of great stuff on there! | |
