I agree her stuff is cool but people are making her like she is all that.
Some could say the same about Paul McCartney but then .......

It's true to say there are many people who can play bass better,
technically, than
Me'shell. But it's missing the point. It's not just that she's a good bass
player, or
that she writes killer basslines - it's the whole package - the tunes, the
lyrics, her
vocal style, the production, everything. The woman has got it going on,
there's no
doubting it.
