Gutter Punk
» Posted in Music Reviews at 3:30 pm
I’d just finished a few hours of research on this girl that I was excited to write about when my lovely fact checker said, "Isn’t this Daft Punk?"
Ugh. It was nagging at me for a while, the idea that I’d heard this before, but I gave the thought up. The song, "Kingston Logic," by Jamaican raised Terry Lynn, uses the same lyrical style and delivery as Daft Punk’s "Technologic" but infuses imagery of the gutter life for subject matter instead. It also rocks a similar electro beat, but with a more grimy flavor than "Technologic".
I’m still diggin’ the song, but I deaded the 400 word review I wrote. Her website says nothing about Daft Punk anywhere.
Is it still biting even when the end result is better than the original?
