Suite for Ma Dukes by Miguel Atwood Ferguson. Live recording of a Dilla tribute concert with a 60 piece orchestra. Stakes Is High with Posdnuos and Talib Kweli is a standout. Album is on Bandcamp and the full concert video is on YouTube.

In the World: From Natchez to New York by Olu Dara. He’s the father of Nas (who guests on the album) and an accomplished jazz musician in his own right, but this isn’t a jazz album. Okra is in my top three songs about food.

Fela Soul by Amerigo Gazaway. A mashup of De La Soul and Fela Kuti. “Music is the weapon. Music is the future. Music is the weapon of the future.”

Why I cook with Frozen Vegetables (& you should too)

Haven’t watched this yet, to be honest. But I like Ethan Chlebowski’s videos for the most part.

I kinda wish Sonic Youth would update lyrics for Youth Against Fascism. They can keep the verse about Clarence Thomas, though.

Black robe and swill
I (still) believe Anita Hill
Judge will rot in hell
