New Uffie song features 'more singing', less auto-tune rapping

Uffie is a former bloghouse artist who has been working for her full length EP for close to half a decade. Due to her sex appeal and free spirit, she gained a wide following after being signed to Ed Banger Records. She was initially branded as a lolita with minimal rapping skills masked by decent production + autotune, but now it seems like she is trying to 'break free' from her previous brand. The song "Illusion of Love" seems like it is trying to be a house anthem or something similar.

After Ke$ha, a popular autotune rapper climbed to #1 on the billboard charts, the casual music fan can't help but wonder if Uffie missed the greatest opportunity to monetize + reach the masses.

Fortunately most electronic/electro/techno/house/dubstep music has a niche following, and she will probably achieve solid album sales in European markets which bring Ed Banger a decent return on investment. No sources can confirm that she will be marketed to the masses as a post-Ke$ha byproduct.

As you can tell, the Ed Banger brand is still strong, as evidenced by the number of fans who were still into the song "D.A.N.C.E." at the recent Ed Banger 7th anniversary party. They seem to still have a tribe of fans who still connect with the 2k7 indiesphere.

Is Uffie still 'relevant', or will she always just be a piece of meat 2 yall?
In 5 years, will humans remember blog house?
Is Ke$ha a better product than Uffie?
Is Ed Banger the greatest modern indie label?

Do y'all know where can I read 'culturally relevant' 'authentic' Alt news stories?
^
The 'key word' is Alt.
Why is Carles posting so much culturally irrelevant inauthentic MAINSTREAM 'news' in the 'so called' Alt Report?!
And: What the frick is an 'Uffie'?!?! Should I know this 'person'?!?!

holy shit that song sucks so bad i'd rather listen to ke$ha at this point

Pimpin's picture

@brotini, Yeah really. It doesn't even go anywhere. The drums never even kick in! At least "Tik Tok" is catchy and fun. I was partying with my GF over the weekend and it was cool watching her dance for me while she was drunk to "Tik Tok"!

@Pimpin, damn bro, last time i listened to 'pop the glock' i was making out with a fat girl and injured my leg. ur experience seems more enjoyable/less embarrassing.

for the love of god, go back to copying Ke$ha. Uffi£

As soon as I heard ke$&@ I thought of the Uffster. Maybe Uffie is just to real/authentic club girl minor talent for mnstrm America. Her songs are my secret anthem for club nights and you know what they have pretty good lyrics and capture the spirit of a fun night out. The bouncers do recognize my face thanks. Ke)&& seems like a little contrived faker but that's just me. Oh and my ternative frenz didn't like the Justice remix of Uffie's song - too bad because it was her shot at the mnstrm.

3 chord progression looping for like 5 minutes really is not my idea of a comeback. When I moved to Montreal 2 years ago my goal was to make out with Uffie, that goal was accomplished 2 months in. Life seems boring now. Miss old sluttier uffie.

@Andy Lincoln, grats. thats also a goal of mine

xanax's picture

@Andy Lincoln, weird. i also have the same goal. was that before or after she got fat?

this new song is sad/boring :'( [tears='expressive', not '4real']

lainz's picture

uffie =/= relevant. unless it's 2k7.

Luigi's picture

Uffie came before Ke$ha, but has basically lost her appeal, it's not 2007 anymore.
