The Notorious MSG

[Dialectic]

I know Lopes already posted about it on the frontpage, but I just wanna say again BUY THEIR LATEST ALBUM! It's brilliant. Go to www.notoriousmsg.com and get a t-shirt too while you're at it.

I think most people get what they're trying to do, but for those who don't, understand that what they're creating is a love letter to the Asian immigrant experience: they're acknowledging the stereotypes, the accents, the restaurants, the younger kids trying to be hip, and they're doing it with quality and style. They really, really are worth checking out and supporting.

I want to see if we can do an exclusive with them this summer when I have a bit more time.

Heh, I really want to see this come to fruition.

If you aren't moved listening to "Dim Sum Girl", you just don't have a heart.

If you can't appreciate a trio like this you have no sense of humor.
