Amanda Blank – A Love Song (ft. Santigold) (prod. Diplo)

Click on the turntable on the left to listen to a continuous stream of music featured on Pretty Much Amazing - updated every day. For more, you can check out the Best Songs of 2012.


’s debut album I Love You may have been pushed back AGAIN (or maybe it comes out next week… I can’t seem to confirm this?), but Amanda has been around for years. In collaborations with M.I.A., , , N.A.S.A., Spank Rock, Ghostface Killah, Amanda Blank is put her swagger face on and has shown true talent and undeniable charisma.

“A Love Song,” a new track from her upcoming album, is basically an extended cut of Diplo’s remix of Santigold’s “I’m A Lady” from the great Top Ranking mixtape. Personally, that “I’m A Lady” remix was my favorite song from the mixtape so this extended cut comes as a pleasant surprise. Christmas morning, actually.

I take it that Diplo was producing this scorcher. Oh and by the way, don’t forget to listen to I Love You first single, “Might Like You Better.” It’s quite good. Listen to both here

This was also my favorite remix off Top Ranking…I’m glad they got rid of the part when that guy was saying “what did I tell you about them rappers…” lol
