So who else was...

[magnus]

....listening to India Arie before the Grammy nominations came out? This CD (or rather the pirated contents that would have been a CD if I'd bought it) is pretty damned good.

[magnus]

No one? OK, well who likes her now? Gotta be someone.

[wossa]

I liked her performance at the grammys.

I had never even heard of her before that.

[lex]

saw her last night on saturday night live. she is pretty good! oh yeah... :)

[magnus]

cool...it's a start. I don't know that I think she's great or awe inspiring but it's something different. I think she comes from that whole Roots-D'Angelo scene up there around Philly, and I can get into damn near anything that comes out of there of quality.

[gutter]

I still don't know who the heck she it he whatever is. And I don't watch award shows.

[Piper]

She's an R&B artist. Heard a bit of itm, but I'm not real familar. A cut above most of the crappy synth pop that gets passed off as R&B.

[BearBryant]

does she look good?

[magnus]

I don't remember. she's a black chick is all I remember.
I didn't watch the award show. All I know is that once she was nominated/won she was so big to some of my musician friends. Fuck that, I've been listening a while. Not avidly, but I'm not listening just because she was nominated.

inida arie has got something. whatever it is, you decide. download one of hers and decide for yourself. i think she has that quiet, serene type of beauty. then again, beauty is in the eyes of the beholder...

[Freakshow]

She's that weirdo that has a period in the middle of her name.

Inda.Arie

Is she trying to align herself with the internet?

[magnus]

yeah, that period in the middle is annoying. had to edit that out of a few files.

hee hee...that "dat" or period is a limitation! she can only go (dat) .arie! she's a file arie! cool beans!

if prince can name himself some squigly character, hey, why not dat arie? lex.xel....i'm dislexic!!!!!
