Last week, I posted “Healing Hands,” a new track from Citizen Cope’s forthcoming The RainWater LP. Now, the good folks over at Okayplayer posted a video for the BK singer/songwriter’s “I Couldn’t Explain Why.” Watch it here.

Hearing about Guru of Gangstarr’s current health condition immediately made me think about the first time I unintentionally met the legendary Boston MC.
Nikki & Rich x Highline Ballroom
February 24th, 2010 · Music To My Ears
I had the pleasure of checking out new Warner Bros act Nikki & Rich a few weeks ago and I was not disappointed. I guess I should also explain that I rarely have the desire to go to shows anymore so the fact that I actually went (based solely on the fact that I loved their EPK — check it below) AND enjoyed the show is saying something.

February 15th, 2010 · The Box Office
I was feeling a little alliteral this afternoon. Anyway, if you’re in the NY tri-state area tomorrow (Feb. 16) and you like graffiti, Germans, indie flicks or a combination of the two, then you should check out a FREE screening of Wholetrain.

No sarcasm for this post. Just wanted to share some good music. I am going to try and do that more (no promises re: sarcasm). Citizen Cope is back. I have been a fan of his since he dropped his self-titled debut in 2002 and recently put some new people on to him. Well, he’s got a new album, The RainWater LP, out digitally today (Feb. 9). The first single is murky yet funky “Healing Hands” (listen below). You can thank me later.

If you didn’t know, I love all things British… save for the food, dental hygiene and football. My kind of football is played on Sunday with pads. Anyway, I do love the BBC and British comedies. Check out Brit journalist/comedian Charlie Brooker’s take on what makes a great TV news story here.
Say It Isn't So, Little Bro?

So, I got a good news/bad news email today (or was it yesterday?). The good news is Little Brother is dropping their new album, Left Back, on April 20th… (waiting for applause to die down). The bad news is…
