No it’s not Sunday and this isn’t a new clip (unless as we always talk about here if you’ve never seen it it’s new to you) but when you see/hear music and you happen to involve yourself with a movement (not just a blog, yeah I said it) called Grown Folks Music what do you do? Post. Plain and simple. Now could someone please remind me what all that hubbub was about concerning Esperanza Spalding and the Grammys back in February? Exactly. Popularity lasts for fifteen minutes, true artistry is eternal.

Hahaha…Ivan you weren’t playing when you said this was going to be posted quick! So how many covers of “Can’t Help It” does this make?
Nope I wasn’t playing. Hmm let me see I think this might make three: Stevie, Susaye Greene and Esperanza.
