Emotion Picture and amazing album
I played a few songs for my sister the other day and she was so surprised hay I would listen to music like this. It’s not just an African American Female rapper, Monae is an LGBTQ icon and a feminist stronghold. My favorite song is Django Jane for its impressive wordplay.

"I knew Ry Cooder's stuff, and I knew of Ali Farka Touré. I love 'world music', and I particularly love African and Moroccan-inspired music. It's my kind of go-to Sunday morning record. It calms me down. There's just something really magical about it. It was also the opening music for my first ever solo gig."

Book Favorite

"This sweeping piece about the decades-long migration of African Americans who left the South for the North, Midwest and West for better lives. This book helped me to understand my own family and offers so much information that it continues to be a much valued resource in my house. Beautifully written and leaves no stone unturned."

"This is another terrific piece of journalism written years ago about an even earlier time. It’s a portrait of the city of Boston during the racial strife of the ‘60’s and ‘70s. Lucas tracks the lives of three families — African-American, Irish, and upwardly mobile Yankee — to bring the struggles of that era back to life."

Rolling Stone's 393rd greatest album of all time
Superb rap and modern "world music" album, featuring the awesome Paper Planes (sampling the Clash's Straight to Hell) and another standout track 20 Dollar, which takes excerpts from Pixies' Where Is My Mind?
Including a range of Indian and African inspirations and MIA's phenomenal vocals, this is a really interesting album.
