I always try to look for artists who are doing something different. Santigold is no exception. I first became familiar with her name through Res' album How I Do, of which she co-wrote most of the songs. Streaming different genres of sound through her music, she presents something that is colorful and exciting. Check out Santigold with "L.E.S. Artistes."
Song of the Day: Corinne Bailey Rae
Here is a new one from Corinne Bailey Rae. I always appreciate her fresh style and her new CD is great! Anyway, check out her most recent single "Paris Nights/ New York Mornings." Love, love, love the video!
Song of the Day: Maxi Priest
This is my mom's music but what can I say her musical taste rubbed off on me. My mom loves her some Maxi Priest (a reggae-pop artist). There was a point where Maxi Priest was all (it seemed like) that my mother played. You know those songs that your parents would play over and over and now they're permanatly engrained in your memory (to the point where you know every key/ chord change). Anyway, this is one of those songs. Check out Maxi Priest with "Should I." Enjoy!
Song of the Day: Nneka
I discovered this artist a couple of months ago and I'm glad I did! Hailing from Nigeria, she is like a breath of fresh air in this world of bubblegum music. Her lyrics are politically driven and they go deep. It's unfortunate that these artists are so underrated because many of them are so talented. In any case, check out Nneka with her single "Heartbeart" and be motivate.
