  • “Buffalo Stance” by Neneh Cherry (f/ Joel Reader)
    Nov 20 2024
    This week, we’re joined by Joel Reader to talk about Neneh Cherry’s 1989 hit “Buffalo Stance,” a bold, genre-blending anthem that poses the age-old question, “Who’s that gigolo on the street?” In an era when female hip-hop was just breaking into the mainstream, Neneh brought a fiercely feminist tone that feels more relevant now than ever. Together, Joel, Matt, and I dig into the song’s fearless style and attitude, asking whether Neneh Cherry deserves to be celebrated beyond this iconic track. Learn more about your ad choices.
