ALLEN, LILY

Lily Allen has done a 'Mike Skinner' and created an album full of songs that catch something ephemeral in Britain and in LDN in particular. She has, as the streets man has done, been able to find a way to articulate a feeling that has yet to be articulated. The album is packed full of songs that tell stories of people she knows, people she's watched and the city she lives in. Like a mini snap-shot of a summer day in LDN she has caught it all in a brief moment in time. Everything perfectly balanced. and as she sees it. Her songs are very summery and the release date is no coinsidence, she will be the feelgood artist of the summer. The sound is a perfect mix of pop, hip-hop, reggae, and attitude. Lily is a genuine popstar, pin up, role model and shop favourite.
