Never heard her music, but I stand 100% behind this statement. Looks like India.Arie's stepsister.

:larry: / :omgracist:

Cause she's black and plays the guitar? She looks and sounds nothing like India Arie. If anything, she sounds like Norah Jones.

No idea's original, there's nothing under the Sun; it's not how you do it, but how it's done.

There hasn't really been anything original since the mid 90s. She's not breaking any ground by any means, but she does what she does extremely well. Bailey Rae's voice is a LOT better than her female adult rock counterparts.

You go to considerable lengths to counter any negative opinion expressed about this woman, Icesickle.

Not really man. She looks nothing like Indie Arie and she's better than a lot of her contemporaries at what she does. That's all I'm saying.

Blastmaster sometimes has the taste of a 14 year old girl, I sometimes have the taste of a 35 year old woman. It is what it is. :lol:

She's alright... nothing groundbreaking but tolerable on a rainy Sunday.

I just want to add that I really hate how her Myspace profile reads:
Sounds Like - a little bit of everything
No.

Norah Jones can't make albums, but "Come Away With Me" is a great song. Fuck what you heard. Everything doesn't have to be :rockout: .

I don't think everything does. There's more synthy-pop and angst ridden AFI-type bands floating around than adult contemporary blues acts.

I doubt you've even heard two songs from this chick.

How is this "mudsharkin'"? I'd say the same thing about Norah Jones.
