boogieb: had to repost this... been on my santogold $h!t recently. If not Jazmin Sullivan this lady is the best new artist of 2008 that has actually released a studio album (am i forgetting anyone else? can Janelle Monae count). She's not hiphop, rap, or r&b but it never hurts to expand your "mind grapes". just glad i finally got around to checkin out Jazmin's and Santo's albums
" The album's first singles, "Creator" and "L.E.S. Artistes", were both well received. "L.E.S. Artistes" placed at number two on Rolling Stone's Singles of the Year, behind Beyonce's "Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It)", while the album Santogold was sixth on their albums of the year list. "Creator", along with "Lights Out", has appeared in commercials for Bud Light Lime in the United States, and VO5 hair products in the United Kingdom. Similarly, "You'll Find A Way" was featured in the EA Sports video game, FIFA 08, with "L.E.S. Artistes" featured in some versions of its sister game NHL 08 as well as in commercials for the Ford Flex. Her song "Say Aha" was featured in a Zune-Arts video.
