    My interest in #Haim wanes in inverse proportion to that group's fascination with classic rock tropes. Meaning: the non-rocking but stylish disco/R&B of "Relationships" - with its mid-tempo dancefloor groove, cutting lyrics ("I think I'm in love, but I can't stand fuckin' relationships"), and those beautiful #Falsetto high notes - is exactly where I prefer Haim would hover.

    #JeanGrae - "Intro" (2008)

    For a brief moment there, Jean seemed poised to be crowned queen of the world - or, at least queen of NY's underground #hiphop community. It never really happened, though not for lack of quality: I reckon her Jeanius album recorded w/ producer #9thWonder to be one of best #rap albums of the noughties. The #falsetto disco coo in that magical #Syreeta sample is dreamy, but it's Jean herself who lights this one ON FIRE

    "Roll your windows down / And turn the woofers up / New giddy city get that liquor in your tinted cups / Picture me kicking this pretty then remember the words"

    You might not, but me I still mourn the loss of #JuiceWRLD - in all his drug addicted, anxiety ridden, auto-tuned glory. He had lots to say! Sometimes, even in #falsetto. No doubt he would've said a lot more had he lived. RIP.

    Is it odd that when someone mentions New York rock 'n' roll, I don't first think #VelvetUnderground, or #Ramones, or even #SonicYouth - I think New Jersey's #TheRascals? Led by #falsetto-king #FelixCavaliere, their street corner #BlueEyedSoul is so evocative, I'm immediately transported down some hot, crowded avenue in the NYC-of-my-imagination.

    #LutherVandross - "Take You Out" (2001)

    I don't always love this man's material, but I'll never fail to give props to his velvet tenor - especially when it's this song. Plus he's improvising with a little #falsetto at the end. For once, #JayZ and I agree: this is late-life Luther greatness.

    The keen ears at @blogamf hipped me to #CrammedDiscs’ 2022 release of this lost 1987 album by Congolese-born/Belgian-raised #MauricePotoDoudongo. It's future forward electro-funk, ala #ZazouBiyake - or #Prince, fr christs sake! - but steeped in the rhythms and textures of #CongoleseRumba and #Soukous. Rich, joyful, and really quite beautiful, this one gets me moving and still sounds relevant today.

    Junkie #falsetto? I say unequivocally this is a thing (plus, there's medical research: sciencedirect.com/science/arti).

    Examples include #KeithRichards in the #RollingStones' "Coming Down Again", or #DaveKusworth's work with #NikkiSudden in #TheJacobites . . . or better still, those solo acoustic turns by #JohnnyThunders. For a while Johnny's voice got so jaundiced and gossamer-thin, you'd think his vocal folds had been replaced by corn husks! But it's what he left us, utterly affective, part and parcel to his essential beauty. Miss him.
