Inspired by Mickalene Thomas, dream hampton makes her music video directorial debut with the funky Seattle duo, THEESatisfaction. The video embodies the natural beauty of women sans make-up kits and without an assembly line of hair products. The track will make you “sweat through your cardigan,” if you listen close enough. Their album, awE naturalE, can be downloaded here.

I know you’re missing some avant-garde soul music in your life. Yeah, now that you think about it there’s that hole Eryka Badu left behind after Baduizm. THEESatisfaction will now fill that void.

Stasia and Cat were featured heavily on Shabazz Palaces well received 2011 LP Black Up and will release their own album, awE naturalE on March 27th, after seven mixtapes. Listen to their first single “QueenS” above and tell your friends you were the first to know. Dream Hampton‘s also directing a short film on them. These two are about to get big.
