Kid Sister



Kid Sister is awesome. I absolutely love her record. I dance to it almost every day, compulsively, frenetically, with an indecent abandon and a willful disregard for the rhythm only Elaine Benes could appreciate. A dance record in hip-hop clothing; I can't say anything intelligible about it, let alone intelligent. Lily Allen's sophomore effort, It's Not Me, It's You; Florence & The Machine's Lungs; Alphabeat's The Spell; Frankmusik's Complete Me; and now, Kid Sister's Ultraviolet—these are the best pop records of the year, hands down. Did I mention she's beautiful, has an excellent sense of style, and a cute dog? Every song has monster hit written all over it, but my favorite is probably "Daydreaming." If further proof was needed, the phrase "suki, suki now" shows up in a song ("Life on TV," I think). Come on: anyone who channels "Groove Me" deserves massive respect.
