Time for my weekly roundup from some of my blogging colleagues. Here’s a look at what’s going on in other soulful parts of the interweb.

Pinboard has a great video from BBC’s 1Xtra which features Ms. Dynamite (‘member her?!) channeling Lauryn Hill – fierce.

Ms. Audio Diva highlights a new track from Chrisette Michele’s upcoming Epiphany album. “What You Do” features Ne-Yo.

Continuing on a Chrisette Michele tip, head over to Songs in the Key of Life for coverage of a recent live performance from the lady herself.

Finally, although this interview’s been posted for a while, I sadly overlooked it until now – so check out Nu-Soul Mag‘s in-depth conversation with soulstress Choklate who will be dropping a new album soon.

This is the best song I’ve heard so far from the forthcoming Rising Down album. It features Chrisette Michele and most-hyped-MC of the moment, Wale.
