Cardiff Bus uses a different four letter word every day as a security measure on its app.
Monday's was OOPS. Apt as the app is pretty balls most of the time. Anyways it meant that I had Oops (Oh My) by Tweet (feat Missy Elliot) in my head most of the day...
I know it's not an original sentiment, I mean Bump & Grind have rinsed a successful club night out of it in Cardiff for years, but damn early 00s R'n'B was next level. Seriously, I think people will be name-dropping the productions of Timbaland, The Neptunes et al for years as a key influence and inspiration, the way that Motown has always been held in high regard.
How is this the first time that Missy has come up on the blog?
A Llantwit Major-based music blog for things post-punk, electronic and a little bit left of centre, with second-hand cultural musings, third-rate sociological stabbings and very rarely the odd mp3.
I also write the odd album review for Buzz Magazine and used to present Amser Electroneg on Bro Radio.
