there's been an internal debate about santogold for me. i came across the gold-laden mistress from a very brief and very vague review describing her as the new m.i.a. i thought that to be a very tall stature to live up to, given that maya has an original sound that's easy to mimic but hard replicate, at least in terms of energy and sincerity. and with this chipped shoulder, i tossed back the golden pill and shrugged my shoulders. the first tune, l.e.s artistes, w...

OK, so I've neglected MOG. Not Forgotten (extra points for spotting the reference there) but definitely on the back burner, wherever that is. But what are these mystical new features???
I have no idea. I got the mail, I scanned it, didn't make sense so I'll read it tomorrow.
It'd be nice to come back, I left some warm and some furry things lying around somewhere, just need to find 'em..............

Well I'm not really a big fan of Pop or fashion (today's hipster type) music but I found myself listing to both of those types this morning on my iPod and really enjoying it. First on the Pop side; I hate to admit it, but I really like that "American Boy" tune from Estelle. Estelle has been on the scene grinding for a while and I'm glad she finally has a hit song.I heard that new single "Spot Light" from Jennifer Hudson of American Idol and Dream Girls fame, I don't know; ...

Nik Kershaw Santogold I discuss the Philly songstress’s 80s-tinged eponymous debut with MOG outsider, the Girlfriend (aka Jill). Me: Santogold have been described as the future of music. The GF: By who? Me: Santogold. The GF: She said it herself? Me: Yeah. "I'm breaking boundaries, creating new genres!" So, when I heard the music, I thought, “I'm back in the 80s here, I'm back in short pants.” Why is she talking about the future? The GF: Yeah. Me: But wh... MORE

Santogold has lashed out against those who term her music 'hip-hop' as "racist". The was reacting against continual classification of her self-titled album as 'hip-hop', 'rap' or 'R&B', especially on online retail sites. "It's racist. It's totally racist. Everyone is just so shocked that I don't like R&B. Why does R&B keep coming into my interviews? It's pissing me off." Santogold with hip hop star M.I.A. She added, "I didn't grow up as a big fan of R&B and, l... MORE

From my posts it is apparent that I don't often stray from the music that I prefer - that music being somber alt. country. My cousin often chastises me and tells me that I need to get back to the middle, that my "sad bastard" music (a la Jack Black from High Fidelity) isn't good for my emotional well-being. I've always ruminated on his advice, but I've struggled to find that middle that he is referring to. I try to seek out non-alt. country bands, but they don't pull me... MORE

Latest obsession: Santogold While she is most frequently compared to the musical style of M.I.A., her own music is all over the map, which makes her much more accessible to the general audiences. In Santogold's music I can hear inflections of Pixies, Breeders, YYY's, Tegan & Sarah, and even some Joy Division (the male voice (Trouble Andrew) in the background of "I'm A Lady") And there is nothing more admirable than an artist who refuses to limit herself to a single genre...

In one of those 6º of separation moments I found myself emailing Justin who runs the Muxtape mixtape-sharing web site wondering why I couldn't register on the site with the username 'Pampelmoose.' He said he'd look into it and also said he enjoys Gang of Four [which is always nice to hear] and that he was surprised to hear that I was living in Portland because that was his hometown - he's now based in New York. So he does his detective work and discovers that Nick, w... MORE

Santogold released her first music video today, for her song "L.E.S. Artistes":
This video was directed by Nima Nourizadeh and the song is off Santogold's upcoming debut album Creator.
A few months ago, I posted the video of Santi performing this live France's Transmusicalles Festival, but this is the first "official" video production from the Brooklyn star.

So a while back in September, I gave serious kudos to Santogold, who trumps MIA with her energy and frenetic dancehall rap on-stage. Since, she's gotten the Fader cover...and she's been signed to Lizard Kings records. So I've been doing a bit of background research, since her flame seems destined to last much longer than a candle with a little fuse. She was in a punk ska band called Stiffed. Reminds me of Gwen Stefani prior to her empire. Check it: Trash Mena... MORE
