DJ Shadow & James Lavelle (UNKLE) Feat. Thom Yorke - Rabbit in Your Headlights
This gem from 1998 didn’t get nearly enough recognition. The song is amazing and the video, directed by Jonathan Glazer and starring Denis Lavant, is fantastic!

Ken Booth: Is It Because I’m Black?
I found this track on a cd from 2001 called Darker Than Blue: Soul From Jamdown (1973-1980). It follows the typical reggae tradition of the covering the soul sound of the late 70’s. To say this cd is epic would be a gross under statement.

The Getaway People - Does My Colour Scare You
The Getaway People is a musical group formed in 1994 in Stavanger, Norway . Their song ‘Does My Colour Scare You?’ should have been one everyone’s radar when it came out in 1998. It wasn’t. Here is your chance to right your wrong!
Great article about the making of a video for one of my favorite Hip Hop songs from one of my favorite Hip Hop acts. It’s really hard to believe that this album was released over 20 years ago…
