About Amanda Blank:
There’s a small list of artists that can sing, rap, write sophisticated pop songs and perform them with irresistible charisma. The list of female performers that can do all of that is even smaller, and Amanda Blank is skyrocketing to the top of it. Her verse is a serious exercise in lyrical acrobatics as runs circles around the beat. Blank is part of a loose collective of musicians that include Spank Rock, Santigold, and Diplo and took the world by storm with her album ‘I Love You’ released last year.

(Billboard) Producer Diplo, best known for his work with M.I.A., has announced a joint venture between his label, Mad Decent, and Downtown Records.
Upcoming releases from Mad Decent will include music from Philadelphia punk band Popo, London's dubstepers Rusko, the first ever Mad Decent compilation, and the Diplo & Switch Major Lazer collaboration "Guns Don't Kill People...Lazers Do," which will be out June 16th on Downtown Records. Other Mad Decent artists include Bonde do Role, Blaqstarr, Rye Rye, Crookers, Boy 8 Bit and South Rakkas Crew.
Downtown’s roster includes artists such Santigold, Amanda Blank, and Spankrock, all of whom Diplo has previously worked with. Other DJ-helmed labels in joint ventures with Downtown include Steve Aoki’s Dim Mak and A-Trak’s Fool’s Gold.
Although Downtown and Mad Decent have worked together before, to release a Santigold mix CD, Diplo told Billboard last summer he wasn’t thinking about joining the label on a permanent basis. "We're not thinking about joint ventures right now,” he said. “We don't have a five-year plan. This is all new to me, making money. But it's cool because we're the first label in the rebirth of the music industry. We saw the whole thing fall down and we're starting with new rules."(Billboard) Producer Diplo, best known for his work with M.I.A., has announced a joint... more

Electro-Rap (or smut rap, some call it) is a relatively new genre pioneered by acts like Spank Rock, Plastic Little, Amanda Blank, the Cool Kids, Bonde do Role and Flosstradamus & Kid Sister categorized by loud synthesizers, huge bass hits, incredibly dirty lyrics, and the emphasis on style over substance. With mainstream producers such as Timbaland and Pharrell starting to embrace electronic elements over more traditional hip-hop elements, is this newest wave of rap the way of the future? Or is this just a throwback to 80s-era Miami Bass?Electro-Rap (or smut rap, some call it) is a relatively new genre pioneered by acts... more
