If you're looking to kick off the weekend with some funk, look no further than soul sensation Jamie Lidell. Don't let Lidell's black emo glasses fool you into thinking he's another awkward indie rocker--dude's got rhythm.
Check out his interview on Pitchfork TV, and enjoy watching the reporter laugh uncomfortably while Lidell dances on the table. But Lidell's no gimmick. His music is complicated, evident by his "sounds like" description on Myspace: "Prince serenading Moodyman while Otis Redding and Aphex Twin watch 'Wattstax.'" Someone with less talent wouldn't be able to pull that off, but I think Lidell's got "it." His newest album, Jim, includes standout tracks "Another Day" and "Little Bit of Feel Good."
