Since the release of her debut album Breath from Another - which she co-produced with producer Doc McKinney in 1997, Esthero has definitively held the title of “your favorite singer’s favorite singer,” inspiring audiences and artists alike with the seamless blending of musical styles in her music as well as her captivating, incredible voice. Her second album Wikked Lil Grrls continued to explore different genres and found Esthero steering the ship by herself; by this point, she was fast becoming a frequent collaborator with many hip hop artists, including Goodie Mob, Black Eyed Peas, Andre 3000, and Kanye West, whose 808s and Heartbreak album featured a few songs that she co-wrote. She also provided the voice to Kanye’s spaceship on his groundbreaking Glow in the Dark Tour in 2008, which is a pretty cool flex if you ask me. In this episode, we break down the following songs from her catalog:
"O.G. Bitch" (2003)
"Junglebook" feat Andre 3000...kind of ('Wikked Lil Girls,' 2005)
"Everything is Expensive" ('Everything is Expensive', 2012)
