"Ima Read" by Zebra Katz

Song: Ima Read (feat. Njena Reddd Foxxx)
Artist: Zebra Katz
Also try:  Cakes da Killa, Le1f, Mykki Blanco
Commentary: Part of the talented, radical queer rap vanguard, Zebra Katz is awesome. This music video is weird, but mostly comprehensible. I'm not sure I understand how Zebra Katz is trying to " empower " the word "bitch," but who knows. It certainly doesn't read as empowering when coupled with the space of fashion shows ... But I guess it's cool that Zebra Katz got that exposure.

Version:

"I am Star Wars!" by Smog

Song: I am Star Wars!
Artist: Smog
Album: Julius Caesar
Also try:  Bill Callahan, Destroyer, Times New Viking
Commentary: I've posted a song by Smog before, but this one is from a different era. With "I am Star Wars!" we get more lo-fi weirdness and less of the marvelously deep voice that is Bill Callahan's. Bill Callahan is part of the Drag City cohort who I count among my favorite musicians (cf. Will Oldham, Joanna Newsom).
