Solange has always been an indie artist, most people just assume since her sister is one of the largest commercial artist in the world that Solange by whatever virtue of relation is as well. Not so not so at all.
Solange is such a breath of fresh air, definitely my kind of girl.
Note: Solange sampled Erykah Badu's "Bag Lady", who actually sampled Dr. Dre's "Xxplosive", who first sampled Isaac Hayes "Bumpy's Lament" I believe. #solangeknowlesdirtyprojectors
Can someone translate for me what Coco said? In what sense are she and Ice T "taking" those names? Maybe I was blinded by the butt, but (!) I don't get it. #solangeknowlesdirtyprojectors
@GirlFailer: I just listened to The Dirty Projectors for the first time today and was surprised to hear that they have a noticeable R&B influence. So I can see why this cover works so well. #solangeknowlesdirtyprojectors
@BestEuphemismEver: Not me, mostly because I'm not a huge Beyonce fan. Not to say she doesn't have a great voice/range, but her pop music style doesn't really appeal to me. I love that her sister has a similar voice, but applies it in a wonderfully different way. #solangeknowlesdirtyprojectors
@GirlFailer: You and me both! She's really just come to my attention in the last 6 months or so, and every time I've been impressed, either with her wit or her opinions or (now) her voice and music choices.
And if she's an all-around kewl chick, I can totally get behind the penchant for feathers and other wacky sartorial choices. I like the variety, I just don't like it when I feel like untalented people dress crazily for attention because they can't get it any other way (I'm looking at you, Bai Ling). #solangeknowlesdirtyprojectors
@pileofmonkeys: I get upset about it too. English is my second language and it irks me that I seem to know English better than some native speakers. #lindsaylohantwitter
@dumblonde: typically, people can speak a second language better than native speakers (of that same language) because they've had to study the rules and nuances of the language more than a native speaker would ever have to. my spanish grammar is way better than that of my native spanish-speaking clients. #lindsaylohantwitter
Tuesday night Uno game? The mansion has officially become the country's most exclusive nursing home, complete with lame activities. I wonder if Hugh's attendants also cut up his food and arrange the blanket on his knees? #lindsaylohantwitter
@tomatoe: Ha! Yes they did. It really puts a different spin on that one from the other day chastising fans who miss the old GND to get used to it and be happy Hef found new love. #lindsaylohantwitter
@Penny: "The Twins" is appropriate if they're talking about the team of Joe Mauer, Justin Morneau, Joe Nathan, and Carlos Gomez. Otherwise, no. #lindsaylohantwitter
@Penny: My Grandma's a twin and people still refer to her and my Great-Uncle as "the twins." Or use Brother and Sister instead of their given names. #lindsaylohantwitter
Yeah I know an crazy number of twins, fraternal, identical, old, young. The only ones I've referred to as "the twins" are toddlers. And that's only because I can never remember their damn names.
@MargaretMoony: Oh man. My great-aunt and great-uncle, my g'ma's younger siblings, were each a half of a twin-set. Each one's twin had died young. They STILL got referred to as twins. #lindsaylohantwitter

@Penny: From what I've seen of the show, they do whatever they can to play up the interchangeable bimbo porn type. They always dress alike, it's tres weird. #lindsaylohantwitter
I'm too embarrassed to follow celebrities on Twitter, so I just hop on Jez about this time every evening and look at the thumbnails for hints of any interesting names. ...is that weird? I'm not sure if I'm saving or damaging my pride. #lindsaylohantwitter
@cailizma: I have an elaborate mental rationalization wherein I decided that if I ever met one of the internet-savvy celeb dudes I secretly love (Levi is not one, for the record...which probably goes without saying, since he isn't "savvy" either), it would be really awkward if he found out that I followed him on Twitter. #lindsaylohantwitter
@BlueJeans: My roommate and I saw Dave Navarro in LA once, and we were all "Dave! We follow you on twitter!" and he was suuuuuuuper cool to us. Like cooler than he would be if we hadn't said that. So it can work to your advantage, too! #lindsaylohantwitter

But a little sad because I love Mary J. and now I cannot help but judge her. I am a bit of a jerk that way. #solangeknowlesdirtyprojectors
