georgia ann muldrow?

love it

I need to check her out. I've been getting into Musinah instead.

Muhsinah

If you like Platinum Pied Pipers and Sa-Ra, you'll most likely like GA.

Granted, yeah, album is a bit opaque, but I love it.

I grabbed some Dudley Perkins I want to check out in a bit.

Not new, but new to me.

yes, this is all the stuff I've been getting into of late? have u heard J*Davey?

oh, and did you ever check out that Foreign Exchange album? brilliant thing

anyway..

Muhsinah

J*Davey

Foreign Exchange/Muhsinah

i just learned about J*Davey today

excited to check it out.

is my excitement going to be validated?

xp

hot damn rev

if you would post some GA I should hear, that would be great!

Not going to convert the haters, but the new album "Seeds" is pretty cool! First time that GAM has handed over production duties (to Madlib), overall vibe seems to be a bit more idk "focused" than on recent albums.

like best love a lot

leroy off her debut is sublime... cannot wait to check out the new one.

so she has a big discography, what stands out?

Seeds and Olesi: Fragments of an Earth would be my favourite GAM albums

Gradually to drastically, changed in deep
I used to roam wild on the one way street
My ethereal son just picked up my tambourine
And put it on my head and he called me a queen

Weird as hell to see this revived now. Listened to a shitload of GAM this week.

Still love Leroy to absolute death

God but the new album, Overload, is brilliant.

just got oligarchy sucks and am loving it. will check overload. discography a bit daunting.

her vocal harmonies and jazzy chord changes... when it hits you, you feel no pain. I really need to explore more of her discography. what are your favorite Georgia Ann Muldrow records?

Mine:
- olessi
- owed to mama richie
- seeds
- worthnothings ep

Olesi and Seeds are the ones I know/like the best. Umsindo is good too iirc?

Seeds is alltime!

her latest, Mama, You Can Bet! which i'm still absorbing tbh, is already my fav Jyoti

I feel like I should like her, and I have tried several times, but her stuff just does nothing for me.

I'm relistening to Olesi for the first time in ages. It starts very abstract and opaque but quickly reaches a sweet spot between inviting you in and pushing you away, I like the dynamic, there is tension. And it does not matter so much that it's all fragmented because it's so well executed, afro-futuristic capsule after capsule, a world of its own. I can't help seeing her as a more introverted and darker Erykah Badu, but forward-thinking in her own way. Her music has this density and rugged blues quality.

Leroy is a stunning track. It's been a while since I immersed mysef in Olesi, but I remember the shadow of Katrina hanging heavy over it.

The new Moor Mother album is strongly in a Georgia Ann vein, and is excellent.

On to Umsindo and its P-Funk influence. GAM does not stop sounding fresh over 24 tracks, they're pretty well divided between songs and self-standing outros even if still all part of the same jam. Her singing intervals are so intriguing, it's like an inverted mirror of conventional singing. Conclusion, I still really like that album.

Also she has a new album rapped by Elzhi

Georgia's new EP collaboration with Keith Rice as LilBlackKids, 'Planet of the Blues: Part Two' is just great, they really vibe off each other, and the short length makes it a lot easier to ensure that it never feels like it's revisiting familiar ground.

(the first LilBlackKids EP was good too, but this is longer and much more substantial)
