Wyclef's Carnival II is his best album since the Ecleftic
While I liked Welcome to Haiti: Creole 101, The Preacher's Son and Masquerade just didn't do it for me. Looking at the Amazon reviews of Carnival II, it looks like I might be in the minority (as his other albums scored much higher). Anyways, if you liked the Carnival and the Ecleftic, maybe you'll be like me, and play Carnival II on repeat for awhile. Too bad that Lauryn's off in another world and we'll never get any more of the Fugees.

Classic Mos Def for $1.99
I don't want to be too much of an Amazon MP3 store ad, but when I see a deal like this, I've gotta spread the word. If I didn't already own the album, I would cop this in an instant.

You know who's underappreciated?
Anthony Hamilton.
Edit: apparently, the videos I originally linked to disappeared, and the official videos aren't embeddable (why?!?). So here are some links:
See what I mean? Man's got so much soul, you can smell the chicken and greens when he sings. ;)

We Know Something You Don't Know
Cop your mp3 of the aforementioned song. I just did, and now I wish I had all the rest of my J5 with me. Ah well, this will work for now. =]
(and now I'm tempted to buy the album)

Sharon Jones is awesome
I'm listening to Dap Dippin' with Sharon Jones and the Dap Kings. And
well, I had to share some of the awesomeness with the internets. If you
ain't never heard, Sharon Jones is like the female James Brown.
Check it.

Amazon marketing 2, Bem 0
They keep on posting up albums like this as the daily deal. This is a dangerous, dangerous thing. Twitter evil!
(But more seriously, this is awesome! I needed more Jazz. =)

Herbie Hancock: Maiden Voyage Album on MP3, $0.99
Seriously! It's the Amazon MP3 Store daily deal! (The Amazon MP3 Twitter feed is goodness. =)
Since I'm a nice guy, here's the title track for your enjoyment, and to persuade you that 99 cents is a steal for the album. (I had to reduce the quality down to 128kbps, since the original is a 13MB 235kbps VBR file, and I'm too lazy to raise the attachment size limit on my mail server.)
