The rising sensation known as Santogold is back with a clip for "Lights Out". You can expect lots of colors, patterns, and a song that makes you want to run through a field of daisies. I would describe the sound as light and airy, but NME used the phrase "butterfly fragile", which sounds so much better. ... Yeah lets roll with that one.
Do you like the vid?
Update: YouTube is killing the video, so in the interim.. you can view it HERE

Both Santogold and Coldplay are in the midst of their own indivudal tours, the two will cross paths in late July when Santo joins the boys for a handful of gigs. I guess she couldn't find it in her heart to say no to one of the biggest groups out right now. Yay for networking! Santogold + Coldplay:

The new Santogold video aired today and we see the singer get down a bit more than her last vid (which seemed like an exploration in still life). Here's Santo with "Creator":

Latest obsession: Santogold While she is most frequently compared to the musical style of M.I.A., her own music is all over the map, which makes her much more accessible to the general audiences. In Santogold's music I can hear inflections of Pixies, Breeders, YYY's, Tegan & Sarah, and even some Joy Division (the male voice (Trouble Andrew) in the background of "I'm A Lady") And there is nothing more admirable than an artist who refuses to limit herself to a single genre...

Nik Kershaw Santogold I discuss the Philly songstress’s 80s-tinged eponymous debut with MOG outsider, the Girlfriend (aka Jill). Me: Santogold have been described as the future of music. The GF: By who? Me: Santogold. The GF: She said it herself? Me: Yeah. "I'm breaking boundaries, creating new genres!" So, when I heard the music, I thought, “I'm back in the 80s here, I'm back in short pants.” Why is she talking about the future? The GF: Yeah. Me: But wh... MORE

The "Get It Up" collab was recorded last year (before M.I.A.announced her hiatus), but is appearing for the first time on Diplo's Top Ranking Santogold Mixtape. Gorilla Zoe's verse seems to be lifted from his "Hood Figga" single and the track was produced by Radioclit. <div align="center"> </div>

Santogold has lashed out against those who term her music 'hip-hop' as "racist". The was reacting against continual classification of her self-titled album as 'hip-hop', 'rap' or 'R&B', especially on online retail sites. "It's racist. It's totally racist. Everyone is just so shocked that I don't like R&B. Why does R&B keep coming into my interviews? It's pissing me off." Santogold with hip hop star M.I.A. She added, "I didn't grow up as a big fan of R&B and, l... MORE

there's been an internal debate about santogold for me. i came across the gold-laden mistress from a very brief and very vague review describing her as the new m.i.a. i thought that to be a very tall stature to live up to, given that maya has an original sound that's easy to mimic but hard replicate, at least in terms of energy and sincerity. and with this chipped shoulder, i tossed back the golden pill and shrugged my shoulders. the first tune, l.e.s artistes, w...

The phenom from Philly, Santogold has teamed up with The Strokes' Julian Casablancas for a song about Converse trainers. The track will also feature rapper Pharrell Williams. Speaking about the song Santogold said: "Everybody on it does their own separate thing and we didn't do it together so it ends up being just this weird long song with sort of everybody with lots of their own personalities separate." She described the untitled song as "such a Pharrell track".... MORE
