"IDK" by Siri Imani

Artist: Siri Imani ft. TJG

"Ludacris" by Neptune Tha King

Song: Ludacris
Artist: Neptune Tha King
Album: Free Billy Day Concert (2020)
Commentary: I'll be posting more from this show (link above) from the concert of Cincinnati artists benefitting efforts to #FreeBilly, aka getting William Pennington out of prison. Go drop some cash there and download all the tracks Robert is offering up for free. I loved Neptune Tha King -- he was great live (I thought his vocals were overshadowed by autotune on the one album I've heard of his). This was a beautiful day of solidarity. Love to my fellow abolitionists out there #FreeThemAll

"Love Crimes (cover)" by the Afghan Whigs

Song: Love Crimes (Frank Ocean cover)
Artist: Afghan Whigs
Also try:  Frank Ocean, earlier Afghan Whigs stuff, the Twilight Singers, the Gutter Twins
Commentary: Fellow Cincinnatians the Afghan Whigs aren't really my thing. I was trying to get into their 90s music videos (they're really 90s), but couldn't do it. This cover is nice, though. The idea of fusing soul with punk rock is appealing. Maybe I'll like their new stuff.
