Santogolden

April is shaping up to be a bangarang month. The week after that ol' Odd Couple record drops, Santogold's album is to be released the following week on April 22nd. Still no name for the album, but what's in a name?

And, if for some unknown reason, you have yet to take the words that I kick to you on a semi-consistent basis as bond, here is some viddy footage of Santogold at the Fader Party and a stream of the single "Creator," to corroborate my suggestion.

Listen: Santogold- Creator [Stream]

Santi's Gold


That is to say, Santi, of Santogold, is golden- like dope. So much so, that as soon as this post is over, you should go check her out. She rolled into Brooklyn, by way of Philly, and is making quite a name for herself via hard beats and beautiful vocals. Not to mention she is fine as hell!

Santogold is more than just booties and beats, in the sense that its a divergent sound from what is being created, Philly-wise. As a dude that knows his Philly, I can say that while the beats crank as much as S. Rock, who is most notable at this time for an underground Philly sound, Santo has its own credibility outside of Rock's vale of what is acceptably cool. Thats not to say she doesn't work with Spank Rock, just that she could exist without his say so. And her voice, when channeled through high-end speakers will make your underpants vibrate through your jeans- if that isn't enough, I just don't know what is.

This is a call to action kids, go check her out at her
