Queens of Civilization Are on the Mic

It's driven me insane for months that I couldn't find "Ladies First" on YouTube--not through my own incompetence or anything, but because copyright claims had shut down the very few people who posted it. So I was glad Ta-Nehisi found an embeddable version, giving me an excuse to put it up here:



It's a good reminder that YouTube has a lot of stuff, but it's not necessarily a good indicator of what constitutes a classic. As far as I can tell, the most-watched version of "Juicy," for example, has been viewed 324,000-0dd times, while "Closer" is long past 35 million loads.
