Look, every year music critics start stroking it over some musician just because they wish she was their girlfriend. Annie, MIA, Antony and the Johnsons... in 2006 it's Lily Allen. Except this year the object of their desire is going to shift units, and ends with a song called “Alfie” that makes you lose all faith in this country, a horrific “supply teacher trying to act cool to his third period class” piece of “yeah, weed makes you TIRED, innit blood” that destroys any hope that Allen could have Been Something.
Alright Still is nothing more than pop for people who hate pop music, poptimist Quorn, phony music for people who can't let go of their inhibitions (indie-bitions?) and have to have their music classified as REAL.

Serieus, het is een leuke gast maar als een artiest blank en/of middle class is - en vooral als hij/zij dan ook nog de euvele moed heeft om 'zwarte' muziek te gebruiken - trekt er een rode waas voor 's mans gezicht. Geen reclame voor Stylus, dit.

Daar verschillen de meningen over. ;)
Ik vind het wel verfrissend tussen de Amerikaanse barbiepopjes en perfecte schoondochters die we normaal voorgeschoteld krijgen als jonge zangeressen. Haar "street-attitude" is misschien niet zo geloofwaardig maar ik mag de pit die in haar muziek zit wel.

Come On Then (new album, track 1) might be the best thing she's ever done. Not many fans though on ILX iirc.
