If you were alive in the ’90s and had MTV or a stereo (remember those?), you probably had a boner for Nina Persson. As frontwoman for the Cardigan’s, her dreamy voice, elfin features, deep blue eyes, super model body…
Sorry, I forgot what I was saying.
Right, I got an e-mail that she’s doing a duet with RZA for the new N.A.S.A. album, and since I’m from Shaolin born and raised, I am obligated as per the conditions of my birth certificate to report anything remotely Wu-related. Nina is just the sexy Swedish frosting on the cake.
You can check out a brief clip of RZA and Nina in the studio here. Their collaboration with N.A.S.A., “Electric Flowers” is on the album The Spirit of Apollo for Anti Records and also features appearances from Tom Waits, Fat Lip, Method Man, the Yeah Yeah Yeahs, E-40, M.I.A. and many others.
Persson is also busy on her own projects. Though “Lovefool” was The Cardigans only substantial hit in the U.S., Persson has continued to produce music. Now with husband and former Shudder to Think guitarist Nathan Larson, she is lending her talents to A Camp, which has more of a pop-country vibe. A Camp will release its U.S. debut, Colonia, for Nettwerk on April 28.
