Wikked Lil' Grrrl!

While in yearbook class yesterday, my teacher decided to put some tunes on. At first I hardly noticeed it was on. Then I started realizing the music wasn't half bad. My teacher then told me to listen closely for who was featured on the song. It happened to be one of, if not the, my favorites: Andre 3000. Then I was told the main singer was Esthero. Hmm.. her name sounded quite familiar but I couldn't quite put my finger on it. I searched her under wikipedia and remembered she was the chick on the song "Weekends" by Black Eyed Peas (before the Fergie days). On the next track, she was crooning along with Cee-Lo.I'm thinking this chick must be cooler than I thought. She has also worked with Goodie Mob, Mos Def, Nelly Furtado, and Fonzworth Bentley just to name a few. In January, 2008, she participated in the Yes We Can video for Barack Obama produced by Will.I.Am. She also provided the voice of J.A.N.E. the spaceship on Kanye's Glow in the Dark tour. I'd look into this girl if I were you. Check her out on nearlycivilized.com.
