Lady Sov continues late night domination

England's No. 1 undersized rapper continues her assault on mainstream America's late night airwaves this Friday with an appearance on The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson . Coming hot on the heels of her New Year's Eve performance on MTV and stops on Letterman and Kimmel, Lady Sovereign is closing in on reaching every late night television viewer in the states. The firebrand MC had a high profile 2006 and seems set on being everywhere once again in '07. Savvy late night viewers can catch a double dose of high energy hip hop Friday if they catch Spank Rock on Kimmel and then flip to Ferguson for the S-O-V.

Spank Rock’s B.O.O.T.A.Y Video!

%%VIDEO_CODE%%

I’ve got a confession to make: when the binocular lenses come in right at the beginning of the video, my mind immediately associated them with a full, round boot[a]y.

(Warp) A recent appearance by !!! guitarist Mario Andreoni onstage at a Los Angeles performance by B’more phenom Spank Rock reminded one of where the most difficult band in Googling history stands in the narrative of contemporary dance music. Part of a triumvirate with The Rapture and LCD Soundsystem, they taught the rock kids to dance (to raggity guitars, stomping techno via MSTRKRFT or even inner-city bass music via the aforementioned Baltimore Bass Connection). On their third full-length, not even counting the landmark Me and Giuliani Down by the School Yard EP, the Bay-originating eight-piece has stripped away the easy narrative of vulgar political discontent found on 2004’s Louden Up Now, and gotten down to the more important work of constructing airtight grooves with just …

Spank Rock – Backyard Betty (Review)

Backyard Betty

Released by Big Dada


This track challenges 50 cent's standard recipe to booty music.

The flow and electronic sounds provide and obvious European perspective but through an American mouthpiece. End result = DOPE.
