Ani DiFranco, Not a Pretty Girl, recently got re-released.

This is one of my favorite albums of hers.

Jazz Mataz Volume 2, starring Guru of Gangstar.

Um, who I had, uh, you know, at this point, like I got cassette tapes of her at the feminist slash lesbian bookstore in DuPont circle called Lamas women's books and more.
