Amber Coffman Gets Free with Major Lazer on Jimmy Fallon

Hillary / Entertainment, Music, TV / amber coffman, dirty projectors, girl crush, jimmy fallon, major lazer, questlove, the roots / 2 Comments

I must have watched this video of Major Lazer + Amber Coffman (of the Dirty Projectors) performing their song “Get Free” on the Jimmy Fallon show (with the Roots band!) about 20 times over the weekend. You might recognize this tune from PA Nicole’s Banger Report: Vol.2, Lady Party. The song is lovely, but it is Amber’s performance that is the truly epic thing here. I just love her, her style, her singing style, the timbre of her voice, and on and on and on.

When she is not at work advising the youth of today, Hillary and her husband and urban exploration partner can be found trying new restaurants or planning their next international trip.

Snash Rings: For Connoisseurs of Life

One night in December, I may have stumbled into BK Night Bazaar after an evening of cocktails and drunk-purchased one of Snash‘s rings (the Ice Cream one, to be exact). Well, like most drunk purchases in my life, it ended up being one of my favorite items. In vino…shopping veritas? For me, yes. I wear(…)
Essential Mixtape Alert: DJ Young EZ – Guaranteed Raw Vol. 1

Okayplayer’s Mixtape Mondays feature has opened me up to a whole new world of mixtapes. I am Jasmine, they are Aladdin and this particular mixtape is RUH RUH LIKE A DUNGEON DRAGON. DJ Young EZ describes Guaranteed Raw Vol. 1 as such: “An hour of classic 90s hip-hop shit cause Dipset is what’s ‘old school’(…)
Avarcas For All, Courtesy Aldo?

On a recent outing searching for dresses at Urban Outfitters (a truly useless search), I stumbled on a pair of Pons Avarcas and thought I had hit the jackpot. For the uninitiated, these sandals are a balearic island staple. I can still picture my aunt’s sandal-clad feet in my earliest childhood memories, sporting the Avarcas(…)
Life Improver: The NYC Bus Checker App (Yes, It Works!)

Understatement of the century: buses in Brooklyn can be unreliable. I had given up on waiting for the bus at ALL unless I actually saw it coming with my own eyes…until the advent of the Bus Checker app! With this app, you can zoom in on any bus stop, click on it and see a(…)
I Swore I’d Never: Shoes From Anthropologie

Clockwise from upper left: 1) Seychelles Garden Walk, $80. 2) Latigo Verge T-Straps, $88. 3) Splendid Twilight Sandals, $78. 4) Sam Edelman Dakota Sandals, $110. 5) Cynthia Vincent Winnima Lace-Up Sandals, $248. 6) Jasper & Jeera Guincho Sandals, $78. I am definitely surprising myself by writing an entire roundup about sandals that I’d like to buy(…)
7115 by Szeki Stole My French Would do Heart

There are certain times when everything on the racks fits your body type, and you could go from H&M to Opening Ceremony and find a suit that fit. This season, however, I’ve been fresh outta luck – and I’m assuming anyone with more than a C-cup is feeling the same way. Step into Forever 21,(…)
Sing, My Angel Olsen of Music

I can’t think of any way to describe Angel Olsen that isn’t off the charts hyperbolic, so I’ll just come out and say that she’s THE BEST EVER. Her records (especially her latest – Burn Your Fire for No Witness) and her videos have been on constant repeat for me…but to really get the full(…)
