How Odd is Corinne Stevie?
What do you get if you mix the Retro/Hipster sound of The Cool Kids, the futurist OutKast/Organized Noize-isms of Brittany Bosco and her Hollyweerd peeps and the revolutionary art-student-goes-around-the-world Club Rap of M.I.A., and then sprinkle it with a pinch Def Jux-yness for flavor?

Sleeveface Champion
So a week ago I log onto Boston.com and staring me in the face is an article about this phenomena called "Sleeveface " and the book that was just released.
