Kiley Dean is tha pimpinest of white girls to ever walk the earth. I remember hearing her for the first time during the summer of 2003 in California, when Power 106 started playing "Make Me A Song", a track giving props to Timbaland, Missy Elliot, Tweet, and Aaliyah. Everyone on the west coast was feelin the song... until they found out she was white. We had just finished up Aaliyah's candle light vigil in LA, and people felt it was too soon for a white girl to sign with a black label (Beat Club) and start singin about Aaliyah. All of the sudden, Kiley's spins dropped. I still love Kiley to death and jam her music every day but because "MMAS" was turned down by the public, it's hard to find KD anywhere outside of the stereo's of the fans that got to hear her last summer. I think Kiley is talented off her ass and deserves another chance.

      I fucking love this band. Featuring members from Tool, Primus, and a few others (i think), this band was originally thrown together by Maynard James Keenan as a side-project - it soon turned into a full blown band with two albums and some tours. I don't think APC gets as much attention as they should. It's an awesome chemistry they have going and both albums are entirely to die for. If you're a fan of Tool and/or Primus, you'll love A Perfect Circle probably about as much as I do - but I'm obsessed so maybe not...

      I'm not too big a fan of this girl, but tha woman can sing. The production on her tracks is always tight, the lyrics are always commerically acceptable, and, with the right promotion, I think she'll go somewhere with this. I heard about Teedra after I moved back from Cali - she was one of Butta's Bootleg artists with "You'll Never Find". I listened to it, loved the music, felt her on the lyrics, and started the street teaming. I think she's talented and deserves all that comes to her.
