caught a couple tracks so far, hmmmmmmm
the joint with Beyonce sounded weak to me, but Otis didn't grow on me until the 3rd/4th listen
not everyone will love it because the expectations on this collab are out to space

Some people will love it simply because they feel they HAVE to love it. I mean, it's Ye and Hov...

Been sippin' brandy tonight and chillin' with some Isaac Hayes.
Not a particularly adept vocalist but Isaac's musical arrangements and bravado are classic. His use of horns and strings is pretty goddamn ingenious, too.
As I've always said, I would've been a serious "pimp" in the seventies had I reached puberty then.

I'm drinking Knob Creek (rocks) and am listening to Nina Simone.

Ooh, now that's pretty sweet, too. Brook will be interested to know that our girl Esperanza Spalding is heavy into Nina as well.

I am a huge Nina fan. If you can listen to "Strange Fruit" and not get chills, you aren't human.

The Sounds of Blackness attempted to re-make Strange Fruit but the chose an a capella style. Mixed results. The vocals were solid but the mood seemed to lack something without the instrumentation.

Anyone re-making "Strange Fruit" or "Feeling Good" after hearing Nina's rendition would be like somone repainting the "Mona Lisa" or resculping Michelangelo's "David".
