It was a pleasure attending Hennessy’s Artistry Series last night in NYC at Terminal 5. The show, featuring The Roots, Common and many guests, was excellent. A highlight, and something I can now cross off of my “Must See” musical check list: Q-Tip performing “Bonita Applebum,” with the Roots and Common, no less! Q-Tip’s ‘The Renaissance’ and his “experimental” album ‘Kamaal The Abstract’ (a release delayed by over 9 years, finally released last month) have been some of my fave albums of the year. Seeing him live last night, performing ATCQ’s first single, was the icing on the cake.
