New Single Alert - Santigold - Go


Remember Santigold - Well she is back with a new single that landed in our inbox this week.
Not heard of Santigold before? Well, back in 2008 she was named Santogold and arrived on the scene back with her self-titled debut album.
Now named Santigold, rumours had to change her name due to a lawsuit, her new track Go, produced by herself and Q-Tip, with backing vocals provided by the Yeah Yeah Yeah’s no least!

 A darker slice of punk pop if you will, it reflects on the “New American dream”, which according to Santigold  “to become rich and famous by happenstance – or sex tapes – and to get there with as little work or talent as possible”.

Hmm we could list many that fall in that category!!!

Her work has been compared to that of Pixies who Santigold herself has cited as an influence. Santigold has also said that she is inspired by 1980s pop music. "I felt that a lot of pop music from the '80s had a depth to it, and I hope to bring back some more good pop songs”

Well it’s a HUGE welcome back from us her at SCP HQ.
