I think that not only do I hear from bands that I haven't thought of in a while, like Pizzicato 5, which started off the set with Sweet Soul Review, songs that I haven't heard in a while that I love, Luscious Jackson,

I'm Alison Stewart.

I appreciate you listening, and I appreciate you.

I mean, it's and I, I think it, the first thing that flashed in my mind was what we talked about maybe a year ago, we were talking about lyrics and songs involving nudity.

and i mentioned um luscious jackson's uh naked eye and there's a repeated line in that song naked is a state of mind and i think in many ways that is the case that i for i would assume lots of people and certainly not everybody but that that sort of outlook and attitude permeates your entire being and your other beliefs and practices accordingly And so I think, although you look like you're going to patronize me, Heidi.

I patronize you.

I don't patronize anyone else.

This 96 alt-pop hit was their sole entry, peaking at number 36, which makes them a one-hit wonder.

You know, it's like all these ways that all of us old heads got into it really as kids in a way that it just captured us.

And I'm telling you, I'm one of those guys that's adding those songs to my playlist.

So lately, some of my go-to artists, this isn't comprehensive, but some of my artists that I'm diving deeper into and really gaining such a much, much better appreciation for is Nas.

just just a freaking lyrical genius and storytelling wizard um common i just i just uh wow wow just such a treasure trove um of course de la soul i i listened to them of course on the periphery back in the day but diving deeper there um and thanks to you guys uh luscious jackson that was cool i mean that i and i forgot about that sound uh that and and what an important part of um hip-hop history um and then you know even eminem like i gotta say i wasn't i was not a fan at the beginning.

Of course, Tribe Called Quest, absolutely.
