MUSIC NEWS: KID SISTER’S ULTRA VIOLET COMES OUT NEXT MONTH

Rapper Kid Sister (best known for her hit song “Pro-Nails”), is finally releasing her long-awaited debut album, Ultraviolet, on November 17th on Downtown Records / Universal Republic. When she turned in her album, originally titled Dream Date, in September of 2008, she pulled a daring move and asked Downtown to hold off on releasing it.

“There were a few things about the album that irked me…the album wasn’t cohesive”, Young told Pitchfork in an interview earlier this year.

Downtown allowed her some time to make the album what she wanted, and she went back to work with executive producer A-Trak and the rest of the creative team behind Fool’s Gold. The album merges electronic music and club rap. Her latest single is “Right Hand Hi”, check it out here,

    lol jk just messing with y’all but I like Kid Sister because of her fresh sound she brings to hip hop…we need some more female rappers like her.

  12. Oyen

    i LOVE that album cover.
    i don’t like the current single too much but I loved “Pro Nails”

    xoxo

    What have we here? Yet another high yella R&B singer with huhh lemme guess honey blonde hair. Still no upcoming darker toned sistas who can sing and dance for the darker toned fans to have someone to relate to? Wow thats odd. I am still waiting…but the way things look, I will be waiting fir a mighty long time. Carry on….

    Disclaimer: She sings well and is very pretty. That is the obvious but not the point I am trying to make here.

    I thought you said “Kid Cudi’s sister comes out next month!!” – I was like, “he has a sister named ‘Kid Sister’? that’s a great marketing move!!” LOL

    Anyway, she looks like Michelle Williams..

  15. FOREVER A MICHAEL JACKSON FAN (RIP)

    man! look at those nails!

  16. kaykay

    wow, kid sister’s finally dropping…next thing we know crowd favorite (not) teyana taylor will actually have an alubm out too. i like kid sister much better than her, why isn’t she all up in random people’s parties and stuff all the time? oh, yeah because she’s probrably been working on her alubm…a mess.

  17. Chris D.

    Not really a fan of her music! The track Pro Nails was alright I am interested in hearing what the album will sound like! It’s good look for the females in the game though! Hopefully with Nicki Minaj doing her thing and Kid Sister releasing an album it will make music fans hunger for more better female rappers/ mcs like underground artists’ Jean Grae, Mae Day, La Femme Nikita, UnladyLike, Tiye Phoenix to name a few!

  18. eveinthegarden

    Is she advertising herself or auditioning for a Nail Shop Poster?
