Kid Sister "Big & Bad" Video Premiere

"Big & Bad" is the third single off Kid Sister's debut album Ultraviolet. She stays releasing these singles like she's actually selling! That's not a dig at her though, as she happens to be quite a guilty pleasure for me. What gets me though is how good this video looks... I mean, if Christina Aguilera can sell 6-figures & get no budget for a second video on a major label, but Kid Sis gets a decent looking third video after selling triple sewage water..? #justsaying

Kid Sister "Big & Bad" Behind-The-Scenes

Kid Sister gives us a look behind-the-scenes of the video for her third single "Big & Bad" off Ultravioliet. It looks fun! I'm just surprised she's getting so many singles.

Kid Sister ft. Cee-Lo "Daydreaming" Video Premiere

"Daydreaming," featuring Cee-Lo, is the second single lifted from Kid Sister's debut album Ultraviolet. I like this song(!) & even though Cee-Lo didn't bother to show up in another chick's video (see: Estelle's "Pretty Please (Love Me)"), I like him on the track as well. I haven't listened to Ultraviolet since it leaked cause I kinda found it monotonous, but I think I shall give it another listen!

New Music Tuesday

^Click To Purchase^

This Tuesday is an excellent one for new music. First, Leona Lewis drops her sophomore album Echo, which includes the single "Happy." Also, OneRepublic's second album Waking Up, featuring the singles "All The Right Moves" & "Secrets," comes out. Both of these albums received glowing reviews from yours truly, so I really recommend them!

Kid Sister Performs "Right Hand Hi" On Jimmy Fallon

An energetic Kid Sister made her television debut on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon last night, where she performed the lead single "Right Hand Hi" off her debut album Ultraviolet (November 17th). I am really starting to get into this song (as is she LOL)!

Kid Sister "Right Hand Hi" Video Premiere

"Right Hand Hi" is, err, the first single off Kid Sister's upcoming debut album Ultraviolet (November 17th). (I say that because it also includes her Kanye West-assisted "Pro Nails," which received the video treatment as well.) I think Kid Sister has a unique & interesting sound, so I'm anxious to hear that album of hers. I also like what they did visually here. It's just a shame they didn't put this video out earlier because there's no time now to create enough buzz for her album to sell anything week one. Ya know, it's a funny thing because she's about to drop & Nicki Minaj is gonna shut the game down when her album comes out next year, but previous to all of this, there hasn't been a blip on the radar from any femcees, yet Missy Elliott has been planning to release an album for EVER now & had the perfect opportunity to... same goes for Eve. I mean, Missy is my favorite rapper & I had to sit around the last year-&-a-half & watch her pass by the absolute perfect time to release something... shame.

Kid Sister "Ultraviolet" Cover

With the very violet--some might even say ultra--influence on the cover of her debut album, it appears that Kid Sister is ready at last to release Ultraviolet (November 17th). I must say that I'm pretty excited for this one. I don't listen to a lot of rap, but I really like her style!

Kid Sister "Ultraviolet" Tracklisting

As you may have gathered by the title of this post, Kid Sister has named her forthcoming debut album Ultraviolet & it will drop October 6th. The album will be preceded by first single "Right Hand Hi," which can be heard via the blog's Twitter. Check out the tracklisting for Ultraviolet below:

1. Right Hand Hi
2. Life On TV
3. Big & Bad
4. Step (ft. Estelle)
5. Let Me Bang 2009
6. Pro Nails (ft. Kanye West)
7. Daydreaming (ft. Cee-Lo)
8. Switch Board (ft. DJ Gant-Man)
9. 54321
10. Get Fresh
11. You Ain't Really Down
12. Control

I look forward to hearing Ultraviolet, but I hope her single does well cause the initial buzz has worn off & I'm a little worried about her potential for success. Then again, with originality like that, potential isn't something Kid Sister needs to worry about.

Kid Sister Album Update

Kid Sister's long-delayed debut album has gotten an overhaul. The project, formerly known as Koko B. Ware & Dream Date, is now as-yet-untitled & is set to drop this fall. This also means that the previously posted tracklisting is no longer valid & some of the songs on it, like the leaked David Banner collaboration "Family Reunion," won't be included on the final album. Instead, Kid Sister has opted to go in a more "hip-hop meets dance" direction, which will be heard on her first single "Right Hand Hi." Personally, since I don't know all that much about her, I don't really have an opinion on this new direction she is going in, so we shall see!
