Ok, so strictly speaking this is a Santogold song that Diplo has chucked a few extras on with Amanda Blank rapping the verse, but I’m going to claim it as a Blank song just because.
Santogold flew into the mainstream with a bunch of hype and those of us elite bastards who knew her from way back when knew that she had some bangers in her arsenal, only to be left a little underwhelmed by the album itself. However, I’m A Lady was one of the best songs on the track, and with my favourite potty-mouthed sexpest MC Amanda Blank on the vocals, it could only get better.
However, this is a departure from Blank’s normal upfront sass, with a less rowdy flow and more introverted lyrics. I have no idea if this is going to be released on anything, but it is a damn good version of the song. Go find it.
Abjekt.
