    Swim Good - Frank Ocean

    This song is so dark and tough, but beautiful and emotional at the same time. It’s such a feat when a song can communicate so many things at once.



     

    Kuff - Shelly Thunder

    One of my favorite dancehall songs by a female artist. She’s so bad ass. I love how she uses her voice in a playful way.



     

    Spend It - 2 Chainz

    This is one of my favorite songs right now. It’s got one of those choruses where something said so simply is just perfect. The beat is great. It’s so fun! His flow reminds me of old rap, when it was party music.



     

    Gettin’ It - Too $hort

    I love this song! Too $hort is one of my favorites, I love his voice and flow. This beat is the shit. The chorus singing on this is the best.



     

    Purple Swag - A$AP ROCKY

    This beat is so good. The song’s so dark and twisted, just how I like it.



     

    Gangsta Gangsta - N.W.A

    One of my favorite Eazy-E verses!



     

    Azz Everywhere - Big Freedia

    This song reignites my booty-shakin’ aspirations every time.



     

    Double Dutch - Malcolm McLaren

    One of the most random songs ever. I love it.



     

    Feel Up - Grace Jones

    A classic! I love how she uses her voice as a rhythmic instrument.



     

    Mercy Street - Peter Gabriel

    This is a beautiful song all around, vocals, production… I love his harmonies.



     

    Lover Of Mine - Beach House

    I love this whole record, but this song in particular just makes me feel so happy. Like driving to the beach in the sun with the windows open (totally having nothing to do with the fact that their name is Beach House)



     

    S'cooled - Blood Orange

    The bassline on this so song is so sick!



     

    212 - Azealia Banks

    This song is just really good, all the way through! She killed it.



     

    Plain Gold Ring - Nina Simone

    I had the record of her performing this song Live in New York in 1964. Nina Simone has always influenced me as a vocalist whose style was so free and inventive. Her melodies, the way she used her voice as an instrument, the tone of her voice alone always blew my mind.



     


    Santigold’s brand spankin’ new album Master Of My Make Believe is available in all good record stores and on iTunes NOW!
