I would have always said Joni, but after listening to this and I Put a Spell on You I'm leaning more towards Nina.

I really can't compare them but if I had to choose one I'd say Nina because she hits me harder on the feels. However, one thing they have in common is that they both are brilliant and somewhat underrated instrumentalists.

Well obviously they aren't comparable in the musical sense but they're my two favourite female musicians ever so yea ;D



That said I think this record is better than Blue. And that's saying something because I bloody love Blue.

Stumbled upon a great cover of Bob Dylan's Ballad of Hollis Brown today by Nina and found it a good idea to share it with you. Definitely worth a listen guys.

Listening to this one in almost a year and it's so powerful. Not mentioning Sinnerman as one of the best closers is blasphemy.

Strange Fruit is probably one of the most moving songs I've ever heard.

Anyone else kind groan when they saw the film trailer? Not a huge fan of these dramatized biopics myself.

Didn't hear about Nina, but googling it opens up pages of production drama left and right. Yikes.

Apparently Simone's official Twitter account called out Zoe Saldana, whose playing Nina.

Critics are tearing it to shreds. Some going as far as calling it racist.

"It was later revealed dark makeup, a prosthetic nose and false teeth had been added to actor Saldana's face."
