How on earth is Kid Sister not a household name yet? I swear Chicago’s rhyme spitting princess purposely makes jams for dancing in your office chair in ways that might make you get written up by HR.
Here’s her latest single, “Mickey” – which I will be adding to my running mix in 3…2…1…
My video takeaway: I wish I could rock an all-white unitard
Yacht is coming to Lincoln Hall December 6th and if God has a sense of humor, I will see a parade of monochromatic unitards lined up outside the doors.
The first two comments shown below this video on Vevo sum it up to perfection:
“I REALLY like his dance moves” and “That neck thing is scaring the shit out of me”. Totally and TOTALLY. Great song and fantastic video.
The Mercury Music Prize winner has a new full length album coming out in early 2012 and if the jams hit as hard as her first single, “Studio Backpack Rap”, there’s a lot to look forward to.
I was sold during the lead-up and shout out to Biggie, but once 2:50 hits, I am in my happy place and only sad that it ends so quickly.
I am naturally inclined to listen to female vocalists but as of late have been drawn to an incredible crop of men who can emote with the power of ten women PMSing while watching Beaches. James Blake is one of these gems and, sadly, it’s taken me until now to start listening to his music. Maybe it was for the best as his music is really better listened to when you aren’t in the mood to play outside.
