There’s a lot of new music coming out right now but my friends and I cannot stop gushing over how much we love Sade.  Truly.  When I was a child I thought she was one of the most beautiful women in the world, not much has changed since then and she looks amazing at 51.  FYI, she is the most successful solo female artist in Britain, ever.

Let me say this, if you don’t t think Sade is cool, you have been asleep for the past 30 years.  I’ll even put money on that if you’re at some gallery in Silverlake and the dj throws on some Sade, all those grumpy hipsters are going to get down.  I swear.

New album out February 9, more info here.

M.I.A. says she is working “An Iranian-American princess/Sade look.”  (lots of gold jewelry and eighties French prêt-à-porter)  What do you know? So am I.
