Bio: The first lady of Ed Banger Records is back. It's been three years since Uffie took the underground by storm with her electro anthems ... (more)
"Hot Chick", "Ready To Uff", and "Pop The Glock". 17 million MySpace plays later, the 22 year old star of Parisian club culture is ready to release her new EP MCs Can Kiss, out February 1st on Ed Banger Records/Because Music.
Produced by Mr. Oizo, it's an old school soundclash of heavy beats and sharp rhymes, a "Pass The Dutchie" for the modern era. The release includes remixes from some new kids on the block, Zombie Disco Squad and Starkey. Zombie Disco Squad have delivered the perfect big room remix, while Starkey has given it a dirty Philly street feel with his dubstep rework.
Uffie's much anticipated debut album Sex Dreams & Denim Jeans (due Spring 2010), features a collaboration with Pharrell Williams as well as French dance luminaries Feadz, Mr Oizo, SebastiAn, and Mirwais. Uffie has hinted that the album will be capable of delivering a futuristic, electronic hip-hop soundtrack soaked in kittenish sex appeal, going in heavy on endlessly catchy pop hooks. With her underground dues paid and a killer debut album in the can, the time is perfect for her to become of the first genuinely exciting breakout artists of 2010.
