Early life


Santigold was born on September 25, 1976 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.[7][8] She is of African American descent. She attended Germantown Friends School in Philadelphia, and later attended college at Wesleyan University, where she double-majored in music and African-American studies. White is married to Trevor Andrew, with whom she has a son named Radek, born in 2014.


She obtained her pseudonym in the 1990s after a friend gave it to her as a nickname.[9] She worked for Epic Records as an A&R representative but left the position to co-write and executive produce How I Do, the singer Res's debut album.[10]


She was the singer of Philadelphia-based punk rock band Stiffed, which released the albums Sex Sells (2003) and Burned Again (2005): Both were produced by Bad Brains bassist Darryl Jenifer.[11] While in the band, White was offered a solo contract by Martin Heath of London-based independent label Lizard King Records.[3]



Career



2007–2010: Santogold, tour and other performances


Her first singles as a soloist "Creator" and "L.E.S. Artistes" received attention from Internet media outlets in 2007,[12] and her debut album Santogold, conceived with fellow Stiffed member John Hill,[13][14] was issued in April 2008. The record featured appearances and production work from Chuck Treece, Diplo, Switch, and Jonnie "Most" Davis, among others.[15] Blending a variety of musical genres ranging from new wave to alternative rock and reggae, the album was very well received by critics upon release and was noted for its "cross-genre confidence".[16]


Santogold was critically acclaimed by both Entertainment Weekly and Spin,[17][14] while "L.E.S. Artistes" made the number 2 position on Rolling Stone's "Singles of the Year" list.[18]Santogold was sixth on the magazine's "Albums of the Year" list.[19] "Creator," along with "Lights Out,"[20] appeared in commercials in the US[21][22] and the UK.


During the summer of 2008, she released a mixtape CD, Top Ranking: A Diplo Dub, that was well received by Pitchfork[23] and NME.[24] To support Santogold, she toured with M.I.A. and Björk,[15] and in June 2008, Coldplay invited her to be their opening act in the US.[25] Her own US tour was called Goldrush Tour,[26] and upon its completion, she supported Jay-Z and Kanye West on a number of their shows[27][28] and The Streets at BBC's Electric Proms music festival.[29] She finished the tour opening for Beastie Boys for three concerts on their get-out-the-vote Swing State Tour.[30]


In February 2009, White announced that she changed her stage name to Santigold for reasons related to a possible lawsuit from director Santo Victor Rigatuso, who produced the 1985 movie Santo Gold's Blood Circus.[31] She finished the second leg of the tour in August 2009 at the Lollapalooza Festival in Chicago[32] with Billboard noting that she "delivered a bright set and drew a headliner-sized audience" for a late afternoon concert.[32] Before leaving the stage, she announced she was preparing to write her next album.[32]



2011–2013: Master of My Make-Believe


In 2011, White published the song "Go!" which featured Karen O of the Yeah Yeah Yeahs. The track was produced by Switch, Q-Tip and herself, and NME praised it as a "brittle and brilliant brawler of a track" with "great reverberating militaristic kettle-drum booms."[33]


She announced the follow-up to Santogold would be out in spring 2012: It was recorded in part in Jamaica and co-produced in part with TV on the Radio's Dave Sitek.[34] She described Master of My Make-Believe as "sonically eclectic but with some epic curveballs thrown into the mix."[35] The singer further said, "I want it to be about creating your own reality. I have a song called “The Keepers”: “We’re the keepers, while we sleep in America our house is burning down."[34] "Big Mouth", the first track and video from the album was issued in late January as a free download.[36] In February, an animated video for "Disparate Youth" was uploaded to her official YouTube channel.[37] as the first single of the album. It was also released on iTunes in the US and later along with several remixes, in the UK.[37]Master of My Make-Believe was released in late April[38] to critical acclaim.[39] "Disparate Youth" was featured in a December 2012 advertisement for the 2013 Honda Civic[40] and a piano version of the song was used in a 2012-13 ad for Direct Line insurance[clarification needed].[41] She then went on tour and opened a few shows on the US leg of the Red Hot Chili Peppers' I'm with You Tour.[42] In May and June, she headlined her own US shows before a summer European tour. On August 15, 2012, she performed on the deck of the USS Intrepid as part of "Stephest Colbchella '012: Rocktaugustfest" on The Colbert Report, and on May 9, 2013, she appeared as herself on The Office episode "A.A.R.M.. In 2013, she recorded the song "Girls" for the soundtrack of the series of the same name.[43] She made a special guest appearance as Millie in the Adult Swim original NTSF:SD:SUV::.[44]



2015–2016: 99¢


In June 2015, she contributed the song "Radio" to the soundtrack of the film Paper Towns.[45] In November, "Can't Get Enough of Myself", the first single of her forthcoming new album 99¢, was released. In February 2016, Santigold released an interactive music video for the song, which allowed viewers to insert themselves in the video, furthering the song's message about self-absorption and promotion in the social media age.[46] Regarding the song and video, Santigold commented: "We have no illusion that we don’t live in this world where everything is packaged. People’s lives, persona, everything, is deliberate, and mediated. It can be dark and haunting and tricky, and freak us out, but it can be also be silly and fun and we can learn to play with it".[47] A second track, "Who Be Lovin Me" which featured iLoveMakonnen, was made available in December. 99¢, her third album, was out in February 2016 on Atlantic.[47]Mojo wrote in a four star review that 99¢ had got "pleasure, sunshine and subversion".[48] Santigold then went on tour in the USA from March until May.[49]



2018–present: I Don't Want: The Gold Fire Sessions


Santigold released the dancehall-inspired mixtape I Don't Want: The Gold Fire Sessions on July 27, 2018,[50] after announcing it the day before.[51] The album was inspired by Afro-Caribbean music to evoke a "looser, sunnier spirit of summer".[52] The bulk of the material was produced by Mixpak Records founder Dre Skull, with additional material from previous sessions with Ricky Blaze and Diplo. [53]

That same year, a track called "Brooklyn Go Hard", produced by Kanye West, contained a sample of Santigold's track "Shove It".[59] It appeared on the soundtrack to the Notorious B.I.G. biopic Notorious.[60] The song was also released as a download via subscription to (RED)Wire, with a portion of the profits going towards Bono's Product Red organization.[61] "Brooklyn Go Hard" debuted on Billboard's Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs at number 62.[62]

Style and influences




Santigold at Koko, London, August 2008


White has a mezzo-soprano vocal range,[66] and her style has been compared often to that of M.I.A.[67] In response to the comparison, White stated that they are both "women who have similar influences and have worked with some of the same people," but that her "music is different and she wasn't influenced by what the press was saying", adding, "I can't think of anybody who would be a better fit of somebody who I'm like... I think what's accurate about that comparison is that she's an artist who has loads of different influences... and is putting things together in a way that's unexpected and genreless."[15][68] Santigold and her friend Amanda Blank have been described as being part of "a new crop of young, multicultural, female acts in the wake of M.I.A. causing a stir on the Internet and in indie-label conference rooms."[69]


White has also revealed her appreciation of new wave music,[15] saying that "My Superman" is an interpolation of a Siouxsie and the Banshees' song, "Red Light."[70] The singer has also stated that she is inspired by 1980s pop music, feeling that it "had a depth to it," and that she hopes to "bring back some more good pop songs."[15] The singer's main influences are James Brown and Aretha Franklin[71] and she has cited Devo as her "ultimate favorite band."[72] White also grew up listening to a lot of reggae, jazz, Fela Kuti and Nigerian music.[71]



Legacy


Australian singer-songwriter Kevin Mitchell, under the moniker of Bob Evans, stated that Santigold's work was an influence for the creation of his fourth album Familiar Stranger.[73] As part of his performance for the breakfast program of national Australian radio station Triple J in March 2013, Mitchell performed a rendition of Santigold's song "Disparate Youth"—the performance occurred during the conclusion of "O Week" activities (orientation week for Australian universities) at the ABC studios in Melbourne, Australia.[74]

It was that good. I kind of stopped and was like... wow. There's not a tremendous amount of women who are bold and forward thinking as artists. I feel like her music, at the time especially, was pretty unique in the way that it sort of matched her style.
