My gf is taking a class in organizational management, and one of her textbooks contains the following passage:
"The ability to reframe is one of the most powerful capacities of great artists. It can be equally powerful for managers. Undergraduates at Vanderbilt University captured this in a class-iniated rap (for best results, rap fans should imagine the rapper Common doing these lines in a neo-soul, hip-hop style):
Reframe, reframe, put a new spin on the mess you're in.Reframe, reframe, try to play a different game.Reframe, reframe, when you're in a tangle, shoot another angle;look at things a different way."

the r&b conversion, it begins
btw there's lots of A+ discussion on the general badu thread too, which has a lot of initial reactions: Erykah Badu: C /D, S&D

I did say I'd be investigating hip-hop in 2009, didn't foresee being blindsided by R&B! Will check that thread...

lexpretend cf danger, "gotta keep that clip on mama's gun"
lexpretend …and of course "danger" sets its scene with erykah pacing the floor, baby in her arms
rodneyjgreene which of course ties into "Otherside of the Game", hence "Otherside" ---> "Danger" ---> "Soldier" = a vicious cycle of like father, like son

i was gonna say Honey vid is like cover connections but maybe not so much the connections part. IT IS however like having yr girl wear one of your shirts to bed ^_^
also this should be again:Here's a Youtube of a song from the new album, from a VH1 performance. It is called "Annie Don't Wear No Panties"

I don't think I voted in this or "Master Teacher" would have a '1' next to it.

well 4WW is a real creeper album...Rev said something about taking three months to get into, I think it took me even longer to REALLY get the second half...I mean I voted The Healer kind of automatically, and I would prolley still today, bcz I think it's one of the best songs of the decade, but it would be a lot harder now to not vote The Cell or Twinkle or Master Teachers (no votes?! wtf!) or even That Hump...

― 51ocki (k3vin k.), Sunday, 28 March 2010 16:07 (fourteen years ago) link
Of the ones that got no votes, I love both Master Teacher and Amerykahn Promise (I can sort of see why this didn't get the votes though, it's very much an introduction to the album). Still can't get into the last two on the album (That Hump and Telephone) - they just seem so generic in comparison with what went before.
