lyrics

This is the story about a girl named Little Miss Generous.
She ran out of money, so she gave up her soul
then she plucked out her fingernails right from their cuticles
peeled them right off and tossed them in a bowl
and she gave it all away 'til she had nothing left to give.

She plucked out her eyebrows one hair at a time
tossed them in the bowl and left it on the table
with a marker-written sign that said "free for the taking"
and when nobody took she called them all ungrateful
she gave it all away 'til she had nothing left to give.

See her now on the corner, skinless and shivering
nothing more to give now and even less to say
but no one will help her, as they all know the score
that anything you give her, she'll just give it away
'cause she gave it all away 'till she had nothing left to give
'till she had nothing left to give
Oooh... 'till she had nothing

about

Kosi New York, New York

She's more than just a drama queen. She's got piercing eyes and a voice that's larger than her body. But, small as she is, she won't fit in a box. She switches styles more quickly than you can follow. First she's jazz, then she's blues, then she's rock, but always powerful. You definitely want to hear this girl sing... if you can handle it. ... more

This album has an impressive diversity of sound, and yet manages to carry that soul-blues vibe through every track. Kosi

Through the Deep, Dark Valley
by The Oh Hellos

I can't explain this or analyze it. But I will say this: the first ten or twenty times I listened to this album, it nearly brought me to tears. I'm a little more in control of the feels now, though. Kosi

The Good Fight
by Oddisee

This is real fo-yo-soul old skool Brooklyn hip hop with powerful insightful lyrics. I was hooked from the first track. Kosi
