HOW DID I MISS THIS: Speech Debelle -- Spinnin'

Not to paint myself in a sad light, but before I go to bed everynight I listen to NPR's All Songs Considered Podcasts. However, since I have listened to everyone to date since 2008, I now repeat ones from years previous. The other night, while listening to All Songs Considered "best of 2009," I got to "reintroduced" to a very talented young British rapper by the name of Speech Debelle. "Spinnin'," which is one of the strongest pop moments on her 2009 Mercury Prize winning debut, Speech Therapy, is nauseatingly catchy. It's a song that is immediatly followed by double clicking on the song again. To quote an unnamed roomate of mine who will probably never read this, "it's a good time."
