Better than NYC’s Cash Cab? Maybe not as lucrative, but most certainly an
intimate gig, tailor made for Internet viewing. The Black Cab Sessions.
Cameraman, soundman and artist (or bits of a band) hail a London taxi -
often on the way to, or from, a gig. With the permission of the driver, a

Kind of… In an earlier santi post we wondered out loud why LES/Brooklyn hipster poster girl would work with Ashlee Simpson. All do respect to both parties but how the f**k did that happen? In an interview with Popjustice.com Santi kinda explains herself and surprise surprise, her reasons are the same as mine for […]

Congratulations Santogold is Brooklyn’s Bjork,( kinda like I am the black Brad Pitt). Santogold has decided she is going to be an artist and not just a charicature of an brooklyn indie princess. This video ( directed by who? ) clearly shows she is going to push the enevelop of what is acceptable for […]
