But your SAK correspondent forgives her/them. Last night/earlier this evening (think of it how you will) Lykkes told the crowd at Le Poisson Rouge she’d offer up something “special,” and then seemingly did:

Imagine your SAK correspondent’s heartbreak when he Googled around and discovered that Lykke’s performed the very same jam before, faking out audiences by starting up Lou Reed classic “Take A Walk On The Wild Side” and then dropping some rhymes from Tribe’s “Can I Kick It?” (which sampled “Wild Side,” not coincidentally) on top. It seemed like a brilliant New York only moment (she mentioned the city a lot in her banter), given that it was a fusion of Brooklyn-born Reed’s most famous solo song with a classic from the classic Queens rappers, but it wasn’t the first time.

No video is as yet available from the earlier (and your SAK correspondent is not making this up) cover of “Cape Cod Kwassa Kwassa” that was fused with “Dance Dance Dance.”
