this song of the day comes from a free sampler whose focus is black rock and roll.  while all the songs on the album are not created equally, freedom is over from the artist sophia ramos is a winner.  the live version below proves she can rock out…

i love the idea of a sampler devoted to current black rock and roll and afropunk.  this got me thinking about the best african american rock and roll artists.  i decided to open it up just a tad to some soul/blues stuff, as long as it rocked and/or rolled.  my take on the best stuff is on the next post.

aside from the song of the day, i think the other stand outs are nerdkween‘s icon, california king‘s on planet earth, the smyrk‘s the ballad of fletcher reede, and shelley nicole’s blakbush‘s blak girls.  this song also struck a weird chord in my mind and made me think of serena ryder.  we’ll rock out to a short post on her too.

freedom is over from revelator/boldaslove.us presents fire in the dark by sophia ramos ; black rock and roll 2008/2009.
