Never being into rap much growing up, I have never really listened to A Tribe Called Quest. The first time I heard of Q-Tip was on the Chappelle Show with the vd muppets. On the recommendations of a friend and Ellen’s NPR listening, I listened to a few songs off of his new album, The Renaissance, and they are good. Check em out for yourself via myspace or hype machine.

And the Grammy for Best New Artist goes to…
HERE is a music video of Mike Tyson (yes, the Mike Tyson) singing with a Russian group called “RU”. He gets props for dressing up as the Captain of their magical musical vessle.

Mr. Roboto
So while feeling nostalgic for Arrested Development I came across a video with Buster in it before he bacame famous. I laughed and then remebered the scene where Buster is dancing in the car to this song and gets his hand stuck in the dashboard.

Ida Marie
Can’t remember how I first heard Ida Marie, but I can’t get these songs out of my head. Also, can’t tell if thats a good thing or bad thing; I do have a weak spot for girl singers. She sounds like the crappy ska and girl punk music that Joan listened to and loved in high school. Like it should have been on the “10 Things I Hate About You” soundtrack. Myspace it or Hype It
