Co-Star (Live)
I'd had a nice chat with her earlier in the day, in which she explained why Floetry had really broken up, what it was like working with Michael Jackson on "Butterflies" and why she's taking her time in releasing her solo album.[Keep an eye out for that soon on the SoulCulture.]
But back to the concert. Opening with "Co-Star," Ambrosius launches into a combination of old and new material, including "Say Yes" (with the audience singing it before the first note left Marsha's lips) and a thumping new song produced by Dr Dre. Incorporating the lyrics to "Thriller" as verses in the Floetry classic "Getting Late," she eases into a tribute to Michael Jackson with a rendition of "Butterflies" on the piano, followed by a snippet of "Cry" - an unfinished song she has written for him.

I Can't Help It (Live)
Soul Culture is doing their thing in London and presenting us, on the other side of the pond, with some consistently dope material. This time they come through with some dope live material from one of the most underrated singers of our time, Marsha Ambrosius of Floetry. If you can't get some love off of "Getting Late" or "Say Yes" then you need to re-evaluate life very quickly.
