The Renaissance is here
Highly talented recording artist and just plain fucking cool guy, Q-Tip’s second ever studio album came out this month. It’s called ‘The Renaissance’, the first single ‘Move’ came out a while back and the video is a throw-back to MJ’s ‘Rock with You’.
You can look at the video here.
Though cool is the video better than the symphony of gyrating bodies in black&white that was Vivrant Thing? Maybe not.
Is the song as good as Breathe and Stop with its unstoppable, freight train like bass line? Maybe not.
Will it make you get up and shake you ass? For sure.
(Q-Tip seen here with Erykah Badu, whose own excellent album ‘New AmErykah, Pt. 1: 4th World War’ came out earlier this year, but thats another blog post.)
P.S. Why talentless, tone-deaf fucks like Akon and Will.I.am ever got recording deals while artists like these two are still alive is beyond me. One less reason to listen to the radio I guess.
P.P.S. And what kind of a name is will.i.am anyway? Someone please teach that guy some grammar and punctuation. And how to write half decent lyrics while you are at it.
He should call himself LAME.i.am
