Woman Powered

(10 am – promoted by ek hornbeck)

I changed the title because I had an epiphany.

Been meaning to do this music dump for a while.

I’ve been in radio long enough to remember the tail end of the old Drake Top 40 “Boss Radio” programming paradigm.

I’ve actually DONE that kind of radio, at an AM station that was owned by an auld guy who was something of a dinosaur. He finally died.

Rest in peace, Knox.

One principle was that you couldn’t play two R&B songs, or two female artists, back to back.

Having trashed the first rule with multiple diaries here, I figured it was time to assault the second.

Note the title, which includes the word, “POWER”, as in, with an “em” tacked on to the beginning.

This is why, even though I dig her shiz, you’ll not find anything from Amy Winehouse in this

particular collection.

The opening act was the opening act at a concert I went to a week ago Sunday with kossack Anubis Bard and our lovely wives. I’d never heard of her before. Her sound is too cute by half, and she’s just irresistible. I was instantly, instantly hooked.

Fans of the movie Juno, and/or a band called Moldy Peaches, you know who this is.

Obviously that begs the question:

Who was it Kimya was opening for?

now you know.

One thing I dig about these artists is that so much is so damn personal.

Ya know?

Speaking to the spirit – in more ways than one.

^{never again the burning}

Ya know?

And yet…some fights belong to us all.  

Anyway.

We gotta have a grand finale sooner or later.

Peace.
