Aloe Blacc - Billy Jean Cover

We told you about Aloe Blacc when we posted about how dope 'How To Make It In America' was. His song 'I Need A Dollar' is the theme song. Aloe has his third solo album 'Good Things' coming out in September. Here is a really good, slowed down cover of MJ's classic, Billie Jean.

Janelle Monae - Arch Android & More

I had a musical orgasm last night while watching Late Night w/ David Letterman. Janelle Monae (Myspace) was the musical guest, and let me tell you, she is what's right with music. Her music is a blend of every genre. Swing, Big Band, Soul, Motown, Jazz, Hip-Hop, Dance, you name it...she plays it. Girl's got the moves of James Brown, the pipes of Rihanna, and a backing band that could support either Sinatra or Big Boi... not to mention she is sooooo sexy. I was blown away by the performance. You can watch it below. She has her first full length album out now 'The Arch Android' so go buy it HERE

....but thats not all!

When I woke up today, there was a tweet from HPSU... they are working very hard to throw a free show at The Bushnel Park. Not much info is known yet, but some did leak out this morning. The show will be held July 23rd in honor of Hartford's 375th anniversary. THEY GOT JANELLE MONAE!!!!!!!!!!! I can't believe it! Last night was the first time I heard her, I was blown away, and now I get to see her for free at what will be Hartford's biggest summer party. See ya there yallll! I'l be sure to keep everyone updated when more info about the show becomes available
