[rating:75/100]
While the entire American college-attending population was enjoying their spring break, N*E*R*D and Santigold put on a show in Panama City, Florida for MTV. Together the two buzzin’ acts performed a lively new song called “Soldier.” The song is drenched in exciting, fast-paced percussion and bouncy, jamming bass and Santigold absolutely KILLS it on the hook. I can’t wait to listen to this one once it has been recorded on the studio.
Santigold is quickly becoming the most fashionable accessory in today’s hip-hop. From Jigga’s Santi samplin’ in “Brooklyn Go Hard” to NASA’s double Santi feature in “Gifted” and “Whatchudoin?,” I’m anticipating a hip-hop full of Santigold-hooks in 2009.
This is a little sidenote and completely unrelated to “Solider” … but now that NASA’s “Gifted” has an official music video (thus an official single now?), does anyone think that it will become a huge single? You can hardly go wrong with Kanye West nowadays. Notwithstanding, the song is brilliant on its own and I wouldn’t mind hearing “Gifted” on the radio every 5 minutes. I think it deserves to be a #1 hit and give Santigold and Lykke Li some well-deserved attention.
Anywho, listen to “Soldier”

I saw this live, I was wondering when it would hit the web. Great post!
AWESOME!!! Cant wait for a studio version. Will this be on a new NERD album?
by the way, I agree — gifted can totally be a huge hit on the radio + itunes.
So….why is SantOgold all of a sudden SantIgold?
for some reason, she changed it.
Awesome. Santigold and N.E.R.D. are both playing Rites of Spring at Vandy at the end of April — hopefully they’ll play it.
Some guy sued her over the name, so she changed it. But she won’t admit it. I would give you a link, but I’m sure you can use a google exercise.
I agree with the anonymous guy… She has been Santogold since she split with Trouble Andrew.
What’s happened to PMA? It used to be so good.
Santigold always teams up with the right people so it wouldnt surprise me to see her a lot lot more
let me see
i would like another album haha. I can’t wait to hear a CHESTER FRENCH and N.E.R.D. song..its going to be brilliant
I love Gifted! It kinda has a little Gwen Stefani feel actually? I doubt it’ll become a huge single though.. it’s not really in the Sean Kingston, Ne-Yo etc mainstream sound
