One of my favorite painters on the scene out in the Bay Area has always been Tiffany Bozic ever since I first laid eyes on her work and saw her interview on the Dithers DVD. Well she is having a a solo show out in LA from the 24th of this month until June 21st which I am planning on checking out when I head out there in June, and you should too! It is at the newly renamed Kinsey/Desforges Gallery and Trippe over at FF already did a quirky little interview with her recently about her work.

I was only 8 years old when this one dropped, but I still remember hearing it on WPGC (turning 20 in 9 days!) and WKYS back in the day and it was a seriouuuus jam that launched Aaliyah’s career.

In other news, for anyone reading this, I’m done with college! Yup. Great feeling, great day to be listening to Aaliyah.

Originally dubbed Betty Boop because of her resemblance to the classic cartoon character, the half-Malaysian, half-Scottish singer became Betty Boo when lawyers representing Betty Boop objected to her use of the name.
