My new single "Holiday in Oakland" includes a shoutout to Michael

Hi friends,

My new single "Holiday in Oakland" includes a shoutout to Michael as part of a rap on some of the great musicians who have come out of Oakland, CA. Half the proceeds from song sales will benefit a poetry workshop for kids 12 years old and younger at the Allendale Rec Center near my home (I did a similar summer workshop a couple of years ago, with a marvelous recital at the end including musicians, which the kids and parents loved -- these are folks in the challenging part of the hood). Please support in this small way and spread the word!

" `Holiday in Oakland' … is an effortless, breezy sweep through the decidedly R&B-gospel influences of that tough but tender city… her rap is flawless, and unobtrusive, because the "Bump City" references blend evenly, like redwoods, salsa in the dark, Tower of Power, the Pointer Sisters, and Digital Underground."
- Carol Banks Weber, jazz critic, Examiner.com
