Hey lovely friend ;)

Tu sais quoi? I love India Arie, I worship Dobet Gnahoré but was quite disappointed by "Pearls". Instead of making it a real collaboration it looks like India Arie just cut bits and pieces from Dobet Gnahoré's original song "Palea" and pasted it on her own lyrics. Vraiment je vais dire Dobet Gnahoré 1 - India Arie 0
Yep we african women are definitely doing it well :D
