"Playa No Mo" by Lina

[A Thug Named Slickback]

I still remember thinking this was a really unique record when it came out back in 2000.  Jazzy/ragtime instrumentals and vbluesy ocals over a thugged out beat.  I actually heard it quite a bit on UK R&B radio. 

Unfortunately, it flopped when it was released in the U.S. a year later.  Lina has a unique sound (neo-soul with a 1920s flavor) that yielded a few good singles, but never really worked out commercially.
