One thing I've always loved from her right from the beginning is that she's a much underrated conceptualist and director of music videos, and I'm feeling her new one, "Honey":
The compositing seems just a teensy bit dodgy, but man, she is so fly.
And maybe I'm too much of a record store nerd, but I'm tickled pink (not literally, obviously) by all the cratedigger culture inside jokes and shout outs in there.
I wonder if MTV and BET will even bother to play this.
Anyway, I'm looking forward to her upcoming album, New Amerykah.

MTV is actually playing this. Shocked the hell out of me. Dope ass video.
oh for real? that's good to hear...
i guess i shouldn't be too surprised since MTV's slightly been taking more chances with their rotation of late, and "officially" endorsing artists like Common, Kenna and (*shrug*) Keyshia Cole.
i haven't really watched BET in ages, though, except for a few times i checked out...er, Keyshia Cole's show.
(kinda weird seeing you around here, OP! i like it, though!)
Ha! I'm a Keyshia Cole watcher too. I have to admit, it seems like one of the more authentic reality shows. That family is too ghetto to be fake. It's about the only thing I've watched on BET the last couple of years.
Man, I've been lurking here for about a year now lol
Do you like Meshell Ndegocello? I'm a huge fan! Check this out:

i used to love Meshell, but her more recent work has alienated me a little bit...
I agree. I don't know about the latest one, but the two before that really had me scratching my head.
