  This debut was so promising; too bad her follow-ups weren't any good!

  The album moves effortlessly between new wave, dub, punk, hip-hop, and pop without sounding like an exercise in eclecticism. Santigold approaches genre as fluid emotional language rather than fixed category. Songs like “L.E.S. Artistes” and “Creator” feel playful and confrontational simultaneously. The record’s confidence comes from how naturally all its influences coexist.

  santigold's feature on CHROMAKOPIA brought me right back to spring 2012, dancing the santigold at the gorge ampitheatre.
