Congresswoman Malinda Jackson Parker Cousin Mosquito (Part 2) 🇱🇷🇱🇷 #liberia #africa #mosquito

The music of Congress-woman Malinda Jackson Parker can easily be dismissed, laughed off, not taken seriously as a piece of art. Coming across like a wacky Nina Simone, her singing is often of dubious quality, the lyrics are often bizarre, and the piano-playing is not quite up to the standards of, well, Nina Simone, but it’s not bad either. So, why are we reviewing this? Well, it’s our first true foray into the unusual world of outsider music. When we reviewed the work of Bahamian polymath Exuma, his idiosyncratic style comes close to outsider art, but it’s just too competent to be deemed true outsider art, with several songs on his album being rather catchy. You might find yourself singing a few songs from Congress-woman Malinda Jackson Parker’s album, but that won’t be because they’re works that draw you in with catchy hooks. No, it will be because they’re just so odd you can’t stop listening.
