Most mainstream rap is a little too misogynistic/materialistic/racist/violent for our liking. Here is some beautiful, danceable, mostly-alternative hip hop you can bump, distinctly lacking in bling and bitches.
Have I expressed my deep and undying love for Kathleen Hanna before? If I haven’t, well, consider this a declaration. Because she is amazing and awesome and downright adorable. All of which came rushing back to me when this song popped up on my iPod the other day. … Continue Reading
In between work stuff, book stuff and figuring out whether or not I’d like to risk getting arrested going to a Malaysian Pride event (answer: I do not), I’ve really been missing the gay in my life. Fortunately, a girl can always turn to her friends or TV for a bit of a mood lift, and for everything else, there’s Youtube. … Continue Reading
So usually I go with a Disney villain theme for my Hallowe’en costume, but given that this year has been a big bunch of changes in everything else I’ve done, I thought I’d mix it up and go with a 90′s icon for a change. Plus, Neneh Cherry is a badass. And totally hot.

The first time I see Julie Ann Bee, aka Sea of Bees, is at the Dalston Roof Park when my friend points to a tall hipster in a brown tank-top saying, ‘Look at that really cool boy.’ That really cool boy then takes to the stage, picks up a guitar, and plays some of the quirkiest and emotive nu-folk rock I’ve ever heard. I just might be in love. … Continue Reading
Like, I’m not saying it’s a bad thing, it obviously isn’t. But I find myself listening to a song, liking it, figuring out the words and singing along, and then all of a sudden, I sound like the office pervert. … Continue Reading
