Lo-fi amateurish. Sounds like people makin’ stuff up in a garage, only with lots of post-production work. Elec guitar, congas, concertina . . . all minor keys with half-spoken vocals. Beat samples are homemade from vocals or instruments, and all the spliced-together pieces are charmingly off-tempo. (oohh—here it is. It’s hippie hop. HAH!) And she sings in a REALLY STRONG Chicago accent, which lends the new-agey-peace-and-hope lyrics a curiously thuggish overtone. (no offense if you’re from Chicago—it’s just a funny juxtaposition.) I can’t tell if it’s just hilariously bad, or cheerfully ironically bad on purpose. But bad it is. Oh dear god.
