The inevitable rise of Santogold.

And also, the inevitable exploitation. MTV jumped on her like she was new, but far from it. Santi White has been unleashing some golden tracks for quite some time now. I remember when she played at the 2007 Neighborhood Festival right after Crystal Castles, and everyone walked away (She put on a great performance though). But much time has past and the demographic that was once so opposed to any type of cultural extreme is now exposing it, and claiming it their own. Supposedly theirs some Santogold MOVIE coming out on their website????????! I don't even know... It's also [conveniently] staring all of her friends, such as Trouble Andrew, Amanda Blank, Some of the girls and boys in Sweatheart, etc. Their also in a bunch of MTV commercials too. But hey, do your thing! Oh, and shes also making a song with some dude and Pharrell called 'Drive Thru' for some Converse Century Celebration. They also drafted a bunch of other people as well such as the guys from Does It Offend You Yeah, MGMT, Yacht, Kid Sister, and to do what, I'm not sure. You can see all that crazy MTV shit I talked about earlier in the video below.
