Thanks, Lex; checking it out right now.
And I think I've said this before, but I'm pretty sure Katy B is not a thing that exists in America.
― Evan R, Wednesday, 4 April 2012 21:33 (1 year ago) Permalink
haha well katy's been going on about what a genius teedra is since forever! so i have had these thoughts. it's more apparent in the songwriting, you know that deceptively casual way of phrasing something then dropping a really startlingly poetic image in the middle of it, than the singing

I'm pretty sure Katy B is not a thing that exists in America.
it took a while but lots of US journalists started talking about her last year.
― lex pretend, Wednesday, 4 April 2012 21:34 (1 year ago) Permalink
I've heard "Lights On" on US radio.

oh wow so she has
ULTIMATE CULT HEROES 5. TEEDRA MOSESChosen by: Katy BWhen I was about 15 my friend’s dad was always in touch with new soul records. He put his daughter onto Teedra Moses and we rinsed the life out of ‘Complex Simplicity’. She’s been out of the loop since her record label went bust, and has been writing for other artists and releasing mixtapes. But you know what? I want a new album, Teedra!

they're singing does seems similar though in that they both have a remarkable clarity in their voices
― prolego, Wednesday, 4 April 2012 21:42 (1 year ago) Permalink
^ yes. it's also true what lex said about the songwriting but you can also hear little moments where the capabilities of their voices converge and theyre just alike
seems very obviously an album katy has been karaokeing since forever
― r|t|c, Wednesday, 4 April 2012 21:45 (1 year ago) Permalink
Yeah but Katy B is a boring, middle of the road Noxzema girl pop singer, while Teedra Moses is, you know, interesting and talented

do i have to break out snoop.gif for the second time today?
― TALiB KWELi SODMG (The Reverend), Wednesday, 4 April 2012 21:47 (1 year ago) Permalink
yeah guess she can't push the envelope to its very bleeding edge like miguel does every single time huh
― r|t|c, Wednesday, 4 April 2012 21:49 (1 year ago) Permalink
i was just about to type almost exactly that sentence except with grimes, though miguel works too
― lex pretend, Wednesday, 4 April 2012 21:51 (1 year ago) Permalink
hahaha, ok, I'll back down from the Katy B bashing. I shouldn't try to troll too hard about an artist I clearly don't understand (and probably wasn't meant to understand) anyway.

miguel is amazing tho. please leave the playing yourselves to evan.

girl u know i love miguel, doesnt change the fact that what evan said about him was snoopgif-worthy
― r|t|c, Wednesday, 4 April 2012 21:57 (1 year ago) Permalink
yeah, I would hate to see my precious miguel/grimes get caught in the crossfire because of my own impudence... snoop.gif me, but let the music go free

That Teairra Marí album is really nice; definitely going to order one of the $0.24 used copies of it from Amazon
