Many of you know Res as a member of the group Idle Warship (along with Graph Nobel and Talib Kweli). Others may have heard her incredible debut album How I Do or heard her vocals featured on various releases in the past decade. Preparing a return to the music scene, Res has released this cover version of “The Metro,” a song originally by 80’s new wave band Berlin. Res’ version of “The Metro” is featured on Mick Boogie Presents Idle Warship’s Party Robot mixtape (dropping later today) and is a reflection of new music from Res, who will also drop her upcoming EP Black Girls Rock very soon.

Her debut album was dope, its good to see that she’s still doing solo stuff.
Shorty can blow, even though I didnt hear of her until she did that Ice King tack wit Nas…

Res – “The Metro” [NEW Track] « PinBoard said this on October 26th, 2009 at 1:28 pm
she was always nice but i’m not feelin this one
My wifey put me on to her 1st album. I became an instant fan.
That song was kinda trash though. I searched the net for some of her stuff about a year ago and I found a lot of garbage. I think she had a bad break up and went cookoo last year.
The Idle Warship stuff didn’t move me either. I hope she can put some more quality music out again
Her first CD is one of my all time favs. but santigold wrote almost all of it so unless she has some fresh material to work with we might never have that same kind of magic. this song is just a pretty faithful cover so if you didn’t like the original you prob won’t like this version
