Great to see Santogold on Current! I like how she describes her album as "patchwork" - it's a perfect description of her sound.
-
Check out Santogold's song "Creator" used in the latest Budweiser commercial as shown in this Daily Fix.

I have to say this interview really 'changed my tune' on Santogold. I took the meaning of 'LES Artistes' and her MIA-esque sound as sign of surface deep hipster/scene pandering but it sounds like she's goin after it for the right reasons and has legit creative chops. And anyone who Diplo backs is worth their weight in (santo!)gold. He's the Warren Buffet of new talent.

well put joebrilliant! diplo is the warren buffet of music indeed!
in todays pop climate its easy to see how she is compared to MIA, but, she is a great artist on her own. diplo & santogold aren't looking to be on TRL, they are perfect examples of artists that posess talent without selling out.-

Santogold is amazing!

Great interview piece. Santogold comes off as a humble, mindful newcomer on the scene...and the collaboration with Diplo? Everything this beatmaster mixes turns to...GOLD! Cheap pun, but true.

i love santogold, im glad that she's getting more and more attention nowadays. if you pay attention you'll hear her songs in some car and beer commercials too haha, hey at least its on tv

I love to see a brilliant woman get paid. Those commercials are just fine with me.

"Lots of people say they're this kind of artist or that kind of artist, and I think that's bullshit"
...
"Diplo is a patchwork artist, and that's what my album is." -
Santogold is one of the best new artists I have heard in quite some time, very interesting and intriguing and I don't get tired of listening to her songs over and over (which is rare for me). I am excited to see what music she will come up with in the future to enrich my life with for years and years to come. yay!

she's awesome. i like her sound, her style and her personality. she's a positive influence to gals who hope to make their way in the industry. and quite frankly, it is nice to see someone do it without her bits and pieces hanging out for all to see. GO SANTOGOLD!
