Well this was just about the best thing ever.
A few years ago I saw Merrill Garbus' co-fronted band Sister Suvi at a local bar and, while I thought they were fantastic with a future ahead of them, I never thought within a few short years I would be seeing what I saw last night: Garbus, in her current project tUnE-yArDs, playing band leader to Black Thought and Questlove of legendary Philadelphia hip-hop crew and Late Night house band The Roots. Check out this punchy version of (already punchy) "Gangsta" from the album W H O K I L L. I defy you not to have it stuck in your head for the rest of the week.
