Why do we like this?
I have a strong feeling this is one of the odder song titles we've had up on the website. But, when tUnE-yArDs and ?uestlove join forces for a brass and hip-hop laden track, one can't help but stop and listen.

Originally performed by Fela Kuti, "Lady" has been released off an AIDs charity soundtrack pulled together by (RED) and the Red Hot Organization. A full soundtrack will be available in the Fall, but for now we're going to enjoy this one as summer music.
