"Common has grown a great deal since his first release, but throughout all of
his music lies a single thread of lyrical genius and true hip-hop that unites
all of his work into a single collection that must not be overlooked. Hailing
from Chicago, Common delivers a message that both the East and West must
respect and the world must applaud."

"The Femm Nameless is an 8 member all female Afro Beat Band from NYC. They are a
make up of musicians from all different ethnic and musical backgrounds, with
one joint sound...Afro One World Beat. With a full repertoire of tunes to last
for hours of hard dancing, the Femm take their inspiration from the like of
Fela Kuti, Nina Simone, and the Congos."
