I know lovies and besties. But you can trust my exquisite and refined taste in music enough to buy her album off of iTunes or Rhapsody or anywhere else you purchase your legal music....I just hope you own what you buy...



A history on Santogold...

This is better than good; this is gold— SANTOGOLD!

Santogold is a survivor of a half century worth of living along musical evolution’s most cutting edges. The only live act that can boast of having out-aged Barbara Bush, having outlived Mr. Miyagi and out styled Liberace, Santogold is here with future flavor.

Already receiving weighty club rotation and airplay in urban Afghanistan and downtown Beirut, Santogold is the first act of the century to boast a post-war following on the International Space Station Mir. Following a live performance broadcast from three thousand miles off the Cape of Good Hope last June, inmates at Leavenworth Penitentiary received Santogold with a celebratory confetti parade. Just another first for the modern super group that knows no bound.

Composed of absolutely no members, Santogold is also the first musical outfit capable of claiming the planet’s broiling collective consciousness as their front woman. Longtime collaborator, singer and songwriter Santi White says of her work with Santogold, “We began trying to write pop songs to sell, which made us depressed, so we started writing songs for ourselves instead.” The results of that self centered conceit is the songwriting work heard for the first time on the full length self-titled Santogold album, released in 2008 on Downtown/Lizard King (US) and Atlantic (UK).

As unmastered tracks leaked over the internet this past November, the request lines of radio stations from Miami to Hanoi began freezing with a flood of calls from listeners eager to hear the new Santogold sound over their frequencies. From his radio show in the United Arab Emirates capital city of Abu Dhabi, Michael Jackson (the King of Pop) played what Santogold snippets he had been able to pirate from a bootleg MySpace page dedicated to the group. Days later, BBC Radio One reported that the unreleased Santogold debut was heard blasting from the iPod shuffle of Libyan ruler Moammar Qaddafi as he entered an international summit in the Nigerian capital of Abuja. Recognizing the urgent need to address the uproarious buzz, Santogold released the following statement through their label reps : “The response to our unmastered songs has been both premature and phenomenal! We were happy to hear that the children of Darfur have found hope in our melodic interpretation of life on the battlefield of love! We’re hoping that each and every 20-something from downtown San Francisco to central Mumbai will also learn something from our work! And to the people dropping no-knock fire on old ladies in Atlanta: shame on you! Santogold ain’t with that shit!”

The trajectory of such early successes leading to newfound political clout is nothing new for Santogold, whose debut album, though half a century in the making, is sure to rock glass pipes from the Lincoln Memorial to Buckingham palace. The flavor of the gold is guaranteed: Santogold!

Orange Moon

By Erykah Badu

Reflecting the light of the sun

Many nights he was alone
Many, many, many nights
His light was so bright that they turned away
And he stood alone
Every night and every day
Then he turned to me
He saw his reflection in me
And he smiled at me when he turned to me
Then he said to me

How good it is, how good it is
How good it is, how good it is

I'm an Orange Moon
I'm brighter than before
Brighter than ever before
I'm an Orange Moon and I shine so bright
Cause I reflect the light of my sun
I praise the day, he turned my way
And smiled at me
He gets to smile and I get to be orange, that I love to be

How good it is, how good it is
How good it is, how good it is
How good it is, how good it is
How good it is, how good it is

(Oh...)
Shine so bright
(Oh...)
He ruled the day, I ruled the night
(Oh...)
Shine, shine, shine
(Oh...)

How good it is, how good it is
How good it is, how good it is
How good it is, how good it is
How good he is, how god is
How good it is, how good it is
How good it is, how god is
How good it is, how good it is

I'm an orange moon
I'm brighter than before, brighter
Reflecting the light of the sun
Smile at me

Santogold ::::::Robyn::::If you didn't know, Now you know...

This woman is the best thing to grace multiple genres in a long time.

SANTOGOLD  has a sound that makes you want to just...chill and relax with some friends. Mannnn...ive been digging her since i heard "Switch and Graeme You'll Find A Way remix" on Ali Madigan( Ke*sh's home girl)'s myspace profile.

Anywhoo, the girl is the ISH... every track gets me pumped and i'm pretty sure if you got dressed to go or party while listening to this, you'd get pumped too.

She inspires me so much. UGH!!!!! I LOVE THIS GIRL!!

She makes me want to go out and party/gives me enough energy to redo my entire wardrobe. FAREAL. 

I BE ALL INSPIRED WHEN I ARROW HER MUSICA

SANTOGOLD gets 8.7 out of 10

Next,
ROBYN

This bad mamajama is another pop sensation that i think should not be slept on. 

Robyn aka Robin Mirriam Carlsson hails from Stockholm, Sweeden. If you listen to her album closer you can hear her airy, beautiful crispy accent. Her swagger makes me want to go out and flaunt my inner Man-eater-ness. She spits, sings and croons with the sort of swagger you'd never expect from ...er... Sweeden. 

I BE ALL INSPIRED WHEN I ARROW HER MUSICA

ROBYN gets 8.0 out of 10

Mr. West's second version for "Flashing Lights"

Quote of the Month

"One day in the distant future, the children of our children's children will look back upon the 'aughts' for retro inspiration and stumble upon the sartorial black hole that is Paris Hilton. Her egregious crimes against fashion are too numerous to list here, but in this photo of Her Tragedy, accompanied by her boyfriend Benji Madden, the offending look is very wannabe It couple: If you took a snapshot of Kate Moss and Pete Doherty from two years ago, photocopied it 27 times, covered it in Velveeta, ran it through a Hot Topic sample sale and then sold it as a cheap knock-off on Canal Street, it would look like this picture." --Elizabeth Spiridakis on The Moment.

The Rest...


"Very space tramp.
Very vomitrocious. The ‘L.A. Look’ needs to go away forever, please. If they banned fedoras, tacky sunglasses, blazers over T-shirts, leggings and Kitson, Los Angeles would become a nudist colony.
Very last stop in the fashion cycle: All good trends (leggings, metallics, rock star boyfriends) go to Paris to die. Clean out your closets accordingly."

Very is a regular free-association column by Elizabeth Spiridakis, in which she calls it like she sees it.

!!!!EARTH RESOLVE!!!!

I would work my ass off to see this pop up in every major and minor city.
