(I know “Faerie Queen” is an exceptionally lazy descriptor of Bush. Big Boi (the member of Outkast that dressed more like he was in Helmet as opposed to his partner Andre 3000’s sartorial preference for The Spiders From Mars) has always been vocal in his appreciation of the Faerie Queen of Art Rock, going so far as citing The Dreaming as his favorite record.
So the angels can be forgiven for hurling hosannas from the sky at the news of the rapper Big Boi even hinting at a Kate Bush collaboration. At the risk of sounding like a covid check-in email from your favorite brand, there’s not a lot to find joy in these days.
