This new new they’re trying got me shook. They come all the way down to her ankles and all’at. She’s always in linen or hemp sheets she wrapped into a dress and they flow behind her as she walks barefoot on a beach. In ALL her years in music, I ain’t never seen India Arie’s knees. She’s outchea tryna give us fierce, as opposed to the Mother Earth we’re used to, looking to the sun for life’s answers. I admit that when I first saw this, I was all “HARPO, WHO DIS WOMAN?!?” Not only is she lighter, but she’s rocking a short dress and staring at us like she’s gonna send this picture into America’s Next Top Model Season 108. I’m a jerk with a heart like that. Yes, she sings music that makes me think of slavery sometimes but I like her.Īnyway, for the past couple of weeks, people have been all up in arms about India Arie and it’s because of her new single “Cocoa Butter.” Folks saw the cover of the single and they’re startled by the different India we’re all seeing. SO MANY! But y’all know I love overly sappy and uplifting music. I own her first 3 CDs and I couldn’t tell you a favorite song if you begged me. I’m a fan of India Arie’s music and her songs are all in my iPod.
