    What was so crazy was that a bunch of "Beliebers" decided to hack into her wikipedia page and write some falsehoods about her. I think wikipedia corrected it by now, but seriously. She is a talented musician who was humbled by the award and was gracious in her speech. I look forward to hearing more from her.

    Local girl makes good. No doubt she is a talented musician but the fact that she's super fine is working majorly in her favor. I was sure that all this attention had to be going to her head and was expecting some sort of ridiculous acceptance speech. To my surprise she gave the best (televised) speech of the night, gracious, humble and named check the people who knew her when she was nothing. That's a class act. Portland brings em up proper.

    Portland got talent.

    I posted up my friends high school garage band a few weeks back.
    My friend has her chair in the Pacific Crest Jazz Orchestra.

    Her new LP is being entirely produced by Q Tip should be pretty interesting.

    I was surprised to see her name in the news. I didn't know she had Grammy-caliber mass appeal. Her first CD has gotten a lot of play in my car over the past couple of years. I plan on seeing her @ USC on the 26th. LOL @ Bieber fan asshurt!
