     What I'm listening to today: "Sike", Armani Caesar

     Allow me to set for you a scene. Ms. Caesar has come to a private club to partake in the art of Dance. Her dance is skillful and alluring, which causes many men to believe that they will have sex with her this night. But inwardly, she is laughing. For she knows that they will not

     What I'm listening to today: "Star Cry", Foxy Brown

     The Foxy Brown/Lil Kim archetype (confident, sexually liberated, sharp-edged) kinda disappeared from rap around 2000. But then there's the 2008 album Foxy Brown released after she got out of prison, with this "Remember me?" track.

     It's got this fascinating sequence where she sort of de-rapper-ifies, takes all her jewelry off and platinum records off the wall and ends by introducing herself with "Hi, my name's Inga".

     What I'm listening to today: "AA XXX", Peaches

     I think Peaches is supposed to be a big deal but I only know this one electropop song in which she sing-raps about being small-chested and incredibly horny, with frankly hilarious lyrics about how she is going to obliterate these twinks. I like the innocent type. Deer in the headlights. Rocking me all night

     Contains explicit lyrics.

     What I'm listening to today: "Swing My Way", K.P. & Envyi

     This song, a procedural-drama narrative of a woman picking up a hot guy at a bar, is a one-off collaboration between two Atlanta-area R&B singers who were between girl-group gigs in 1998. It was *huge* on Houston-area radio.

     This song stands out for its production being an amazing 50% blend of 1998 electronic dance music and 1998 R&B, in a way I've never heard another song attempt much less succeed at this hard.
