Wow, some here are either only reading half the stuff written here, or are just totally clueless to what I was getting at. Others blamed Santi of copying, I ONLY stated facts of release dates so they would look beyond their clueless thoughts, AND, you are wrong on what her voice is/was like. She hasnt changed her voice at all, even if the music varies. Weak Comparison to No Doubt, I guess being a Alternative DJ for over 20 years would count me as Clueless. Good thing teachers like you are here:D
Cmon guys with the Comparison... M.I.A na dSantigold have different styles they sound at all alike. They are both unique and powerful artists who have powerfull messages in their music..why not just give it a rest and enjoy the music.
@omfgmatty Which is totally fine. I know tons of people who absolutely hated the 3rd album even though I loved it. It was completely different from anything she's done, which is probably why M.I.A continues to hold a place as one of my favorite artists alongside Santi (:
Hmm, someone hears a Copy? I seem to have a LP from Stiffed (Santi's first band) which dates back to 2003 and M.I.A. dates back to 2005, hmmm, who is coping who?
@Mtthwmeatball nobody's copying anyone.. AND Stiffed and M.I.A don't sound alike anyway.. Stiffed's poppy and ska-ish,like No Doubt was on some of their records. don't like M.I.A's stuf that much though (:
@ROBOevin i know right! i read up on her recently and her album SHOULD be coming out this fall. there are some recent performances of her performing some new songs in Europe...her first album was so awesome, loved that she can do any genre from rap to pop to reggae to ska
@ekajllahsram i dont get whats wrong with saying an artist sounds like another artist. im not saying santigold has copied or whatever, but i tink you are daft to not think they have a somewhat similar sound. i fucking love them both, and they are both amazing in they're own right, but they sound a little similar. whats the bad thing about that? anyway, its almost impossible to sound completely iduvidual in todays industry anyways.
I don't know if someone has mentioned this or not but what I love is this kind of re-interpretation of beats simulating what is similar to inuit throat singing...which reminded me of Bjork's previous albums...I mean for the people comparing this to MIA? MIA isn't "original" either, I'm sure there are artists before them...so this whole "original" competition is total bs.
Besides, this collaboration with Karen O is BRILLIANT true fierce female artists.
This makes me so mad. Why the HELL is the ultimate queen Santi not on the charts, when talentless bitches like Rihanna and Britney are on top? I actually like those girls too, but Santi is on another level. We need to support REAL talent!
@hammockhavoc I totally agree this is 100 times better than most of the shit that gets into the charts!! Santi deserves so much more for her awesome music!!!!
Thanks Mike Shinoda for sharing this awesome song! Karen O is the hottest indie singer ever! I'm just sad that Glee had to screw up "Heads Will Roll" and all those mainstream gleeks are like "oh, heard of Yeah Yeah Yeah? All their songs suck except heads will roll which was mashed up with thriller." sometimes i hate glee for this.
@LameBoyProductions oh be quiet. "OH NOES ITS TEH MAINSTREAM NOW IT SUCKS!!! I LIKES MUSIC NOBODY NOES! I LIKE BANDS THAT DONT EVEN EXIST YET IM SO COOL!!!" get over it already.
@snodawg666 dude u misunderstood. i like artistes that are mainstream too. just really disgusted with reactions of glee fans towards yeah yeah yeah's music, and by extension, karen O's
So this one time two of the most kick ass women in music made a song and it was posted on youtube on April 14, 2011 and then this girl posted a comment on it.
@pterminal She did change her name, Pitchfork has an article on it. Someone else had been using the name "Santo Gold" for a longer time and filed a lawsuit against Santigold and her label.
This is going to be the opening song for MOMMB... I cannot wait to blast it. Especially if it gets a vinyl release.
