2009 for me was about rediscovering Q-Tip. Still gotta review his Kamaal The Abstract album, give me a coupla days ;)
And I finally got into the Visioneers remix album; I didn’t expect it to be soooooo addictive!!

Meshell’s dropped a few places; still can’t get emotionally invested in her laterst album, ohwell.. My year has been very jazz-influenced with music from Robert Glasper, Freddie Hubbard and Brad Mehldau. Honorable mention: The Foreign Exchange, a great Dutch-American collaboration.
I kept trying to like Mayer Hawthorne, but his work, at least to me, is on the wrong side of retro-recycle pop. And The Chess Cadet Allstars are still in the top 15 of 2009!
