"I Love College" made him a star, but don't dismiss this white rapper from the 'burbs as superficial or dumbed-down. He uses his remarkable talent (see him freestyling with Kid Cudi) to speak his mind on race, family, politics and education. » Interview with Asher Roth
With the Dresden Dolls and now as a solo artist, Amanda Palmer writes songs with a dark humor and thoughtful elegance, covering topics like love, abuse, seduction and mass murder. Her latest project is quirky even by her standards: the world's only conjoined-twin singer-songwriter duo. We spoke with Amanda just hours after she got engaged to Coraline writer Neil Gaiman. » Interview with Amanda Palmer

Turns out, they were very good at making hits: "Crimson And Clover," "Mony Mony," "Hanky Panky" and "Crystal Blue Persuasion" to name a few.
