Who is this year's Uffy?
So... I need a recommendation. I want to get a friend something released this year. A couple of years back I got him the Uffy album and he loved it. So something in a similar vein would be great. The only thing that springs to mind for me is Kreayshawn, but I've heard the album is a bit rubbish. Thought about burning him a CD of the Azealia Banks mixtape, but that seems a bit cheap. So hit me with some female-fronted alterna-hip-pop craziness. If it's not from 2012, that wouldn't be the end of the world, but the more recent the better. Go!

you mean Uffie?
If he likes Le Tigre too, I recommend The Blow's Paper Television from a few years back.
Kitty Pryde
if by 'this years uffie' you mean a hip, white girl that's having a laugh with rapping'
kitty pryde
There's no album yet though, right?
I guess I could just give him an empty CD case with a picture from her from the X-Men in it. Not quite what I was hoping for, mind.
giving people CDs!?!?! What is this 2006?!?!
send him some youtube links
This year's 20 year old who's pretending to be 13?
Something creeps me out about Kitty.
holy christ this is bad
Um yes, I mean Uffie. Ooops.
I thought you meant
This year's shameless industry cash-in on a popular artist who'll be forgotten in a year's time.

What the fuck was that?
The good thing about Uffie was
that her music was produced by Mr Oizo, Sebastian etc. Just give him all Oizo records and some misc Ed Banger stuff.
instead
Angel Haze
Wait, she's actually good and easy on the eye rather than just aesthetically pleasing.
You could just get him the 1991 EP
As well as burning the mixtape(s) on a CD.
stick this on there too:

imagine being reviews as
this year's uffie
Grimes
I mean yeah, technically the correct answer is Kreayshawn or Kitty Pryde, but get him the Grimes record. He'll actually love that.
Grimes, Kitty Pryde, Kreayshawn and Yelle (though she's not really THIS year)
(and she's actually talented)
...unlike the rest of the aforementioned harpies.
Also, christ, one Uffie was bad enough. We do not need another.
Further to my Yelle-love
I feel the need to post this.

Alright, let's put this thread to bed
I got him the Justice CD from a few years back with Uffie on it and I'll burn him the Azealia Banks mixtape. Assuming Kitty Pryde puts an album out soon, he'll be getting that next year. Cheers. End of thread.
Ke$ha's got something new out soon I think
Obvious answer is obvious
Kreayshawn.
