It’s been a minute since I’ve posted about any new music, but this morning, thanks to a Fecal Face video I came across Santogold. The group is made up of singer Santi White and producer John Hill, and can best be described as “What MIA should sound like”. I never really caught on to the MIA sound, but then Santogold came along and changed all that. Her voice is better, less shrill, and the songs are a little more laidback. I don’t feel like someone is trying to give me a cocaine epidural by the middle of a track. My luck being what it is, Santogold is New York-based, meaning it will be a while before I get to see them in person, especially since I won’t shell out the cash to bake in the desert at Coachella. It’s just as well, I’d hate to have to break out my dance moves again. It’s impolite to arouse that many women at one time, and some of them probably have boyfriends. Damn my amazing hips to hell!
