or check out her own album, kollage, this is one bad-ass lady rapper.
When Mark Farnia came through here on the Mushroom Jazz Tour he dropped
Spontaneity about half way through his set and the crowd definately
loved it. I heard her doing a tune on the radio last week but I didn't
catch the name of the song, I only heard the DJ say that it is unusual
to hear a hip-hop artist do a cover of another hip-hop artist. anybody
know what this might have been?
