Teedra Moses Puts It 'In the Wind' For New Orleans
Despite not releasing an album since her 2004 game-changing debut, Complex Simplicity, Teedra Moses has put out mixtapes at a steady clip. Her latest, Lionhearted, is volume three in the Young Hustla series, which have taken our mind off of the fact that her sophomore set, The Young Lioness, is caught in the Matrix. On the song "Put It In the Wind" from Lionhearted, Teedra puts on for her city--the city of her birth, that is--New Orleans. She interpolates some Marvin Gaye lyrics on the track and even spits a few bars as she sings about her birthplace in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina. Since there's no telling when or if The Young Lioness will see the light of day, pick up this mixtape to tide you over till then from Teedra's MySpace page.

bossalina007 | February 2, 2010 7:04 PM | PermalinkCop Lionhearted... a must for mixtapes. And you don't get that many R&B ones coming around. What Would Minnie Riperton Do :) if she was alive in these times, do the same thing? You must check our also her duet with Raheem DeVaughn "Get Yours". Sexy Soul Personified. This is the ish Grammy nominations are made of.

aaahhh-leeee-ciiii-aaahhhh | February 6, 2009 5:49 PM | PermalinkI knew you guys wouldn't let me down. The way I know this girl is times, I didn't start repping for her until 2007, and she came out in 2004. She's one of the best vocalists in the world. I love her.

Lo | February 4, 2009 11:24 PM | PermalinkTeedra Moses' talent makes me speechless. Complex Simplicity is a timeless CD, and that says a lot in this day and age. I cannot get over the fact that she's slept on as an artist.
Amera | February 4, 2009 10:19 PM | PermalinkI bought the mixtape!Support Teedra!
Sharonda | February 4, 2009 8:55 PM | PermalinkStill bump Complex Simplicity. Hope she finds a new label because her music is ten times better than the garbage that's all over radio today.
