Zadie Smith on the magic of Tracy Chapman: ‘She didn’t just look like us – she was singing our songs’

The novelist was just 12 when the ex-busker stunned a mammoth crowd at the Free Nelson Mandela concert – and sent everyone racing to Woolworths for her astonishing debut album. Its simple, honest, perfect songs of protest have mesmerised the writer ever since

Het voordeel van een van die zeldzame zondagochtenden zonder dochter is dat ik kan genieten van #piazzolla gespeeld door #gidonkremer en #CarelKraayenhof. Maar ook de #Fugees, #traceychapman en #YmaSumac. Mambo!
One of my favourite Jane & Lisbon edits put to an iconic song “Fast Car” by #TraceyChapman #traceychapmanforevah is this one. Turn up the volume. #patrickjane #TeresaLisbon #SimonBaker #robintunney #thementalist #thementalistcbs #tvseries #TVMysteries
The unrealized American dream. So much hope.
