Santigold - What's In My Bag?

[@paddyboomvideos]

This woman is the real deal; smart, beautiful, interesting, eloquent and stellar taste in tunes.

[@dornie_donko]

Indeed

[@swordlilly]

Frrr i loved this interview🤍

[@brandtsweet]

Sooooo true

[@nicky560]

Facts

[@MSCCA]

She believes in ghosts, so she can't be that smart.

[@jessegpresley]

This woman is amazing.

[@Panthercholo]

💯 Agreed

[@Panthercholo]

​@@SkyNetGeneral-Google her after you escape from captivity.

[@invisiblecurious856]

from FIFA game

[@acemma25]

"You could be grounded and still get records" is such a great way to describe the importance that her father wanted to have music be for her.

[@ThisCharminManc]

I didn’t think I could love Santigold more than I already did. I hope I get to see her live one day 🤞🏼

[@ancestralabundance]

Samesiez.

[@laemotica8405]

I hope you get to meet her. She’s so lovely and sweet.

[@LeLinda-rh7rx]

She is on tour now.

[@AvecPoesie]

I so deeply value and appreciate Santigold's articulation of awareness at a young age that as a young Black girl, she was "different." Quite often, Black culture will dictate that you must dress in a particular manner, listen only to certain music, and even speak in a way that is approved. When one is different, there is ostracization, teasing, and at times, closed-minded cruelty to contend with. Santigold created music that accompanied my Life during the most transformative, traumatizing, and unforgettable period I've ever known. My gratitude toward her boundless talent and unique presentation is permanently embedded within my heart and mind. 🖤

[@extrashotofespresso_]

YES! I related to her so heavily as another black girl who felt different form my fellow black peers. Also from NY too.

[@mrshappilymarried1]

Maybe in NY... but Black culture has Always been about freedom of expression because our ancestors were always considered 'a peculiar people' and that is the very reason they were ostracized by the oppressors. There is no one way to be dress or behave or express in our culture. There's always been a huge melting pot but again perhaps that wasn't your experience. 🖤 I hope you've been able to evolve from that and not think our entire culture is unaccepting of people that consider themselves as different. We've always been that and always embraced it, flipped it and highlited it.😂💃🏽🕺🏾👩🏽‍🎤👨🏽‍🎤

[@TB-rt1hm]

Her...and Res, they never got the commercial success they deserve. Amazing artists.

[@laemotica8405]

Res! She deserved so much better!

[@libfuzzy4629]

Tbh everyone doesn’t want to be super famous and the industry is demonic that why Lauryn hill left lol

[@alexarihani2902]

Love santigold! Only know one song by Res… they say vision but I loved it

[@AkkaBowdenKerby]

I would have gladly watched a one hour version of this.

[@jimmygillard]

I saw her when she was Santogold on her first album tour in a tiny club. Still one of my fave shows I ever went to, incredible energy and positivity.

[@stankboxers]

her first album is so good

[@elmaestrokgb]

When she started talking about going to the record store with her dad I almost started to cry. The social experience of sharing a place and time with other people who love music and just want to find something else to transport them the way only records can do! I wish I could take my dad one more time.

[@SerenityChaos1975]

Love this woman, her artistry and uniqueness.

[@artistlovepeace]

Santigold is such a beautiful artist. I always have her tracks playing in my head.

[@usedfuzzbox]

Disparate Youth is a stone cold classic, takes me back a decade, damn......

[@kikib8434]

One of my favourite songs, period. "Oh we said our dreams will carry us, and if they don't fly we will run" gets me every time 😊🖤.

[@rufiorufioo]

The first album she pulls out is a pure masterpiece. I knew she was a good one to watch.

[@CoffinPrick]

I worked with her through a company I was with around the time of her first(?) record…and I can attest, she’s super cool. Nice to see that she still seems to be.

[@jessicakilby5946]

Saw her in concert 14 yrs ago. Top 3 performances I've seen in my life. So great!

[@YaleStewartArt]

I was lucky enough to work a gig at a venue when she was part of a Bacardi tour or something back in 07 or 08? She only performed 2-3 songs but it was so obvious she was a special talent and I’ve been obsessed ever since. I love the anecdote about “Creator” because the first time I played it , my poor dog didn’t know WHAT was going on with those opening vocals lmao

[@extrashotofespresso_]

Creator is one of her best songs!

[@laemotica8405]

Did you meet her? She’s a literal angel

[@user-be4kn1sk2i]

Santigold is an artist in every sense. Can't wait to see her live.

[@cakredi4132]

Now we know why her music is so unique.

[@aronpolasek4506]

Santigold is so awesome. Took me a few listens for "Spirituals" to click for me, but once it did, I loved it like all of her other albums.

[@GoreVidalComicbooks]

I've been watching this channel for a couple of years. Many of the featured artists I do not know. But what they all have in common are interesting music choices. It's always a rewarding experience.

[@JusticeConstantine]

Santigold, the ultimate Selector.

[@paulhardman2515]

I love her song with Beastie Boys, Don't Play no Game I Can't Win! One of their last great songs. RIP MCA, RIP Trugoy The Dove, RIP Easy-E🎤🔥

[@god563616]

OMYGOODNESS!! Santi!! Still gorgeous!! I went to your amazing concert In Houston at House of Blues with Bad Andrew in HS!! It was Santigold, M.I.A. and La Roux everyday in mid 2000's!! Still listening to You'll find a way!! Thank you for this QUEEN!!!

[@philmole1209]

I had to check that I wasn't imagining that she was actually already making music in 2010 (when I first heard of her) because she looks so incredibly young. She's only a few years younger than me but looks 20-25 years younger than me! Incredible. Talented artist and seemingly a very cool human being.

[@Luckimee]

Yea and she has like 4 kids

[@billbilljones]

"My friend Yasiin" like its some just some buddy from way back but its frickin mos def haha

[@peachy-tay]

huge shouts to augustus pablo! one of the best to ever do it

[@numsiskit]

I knew this one would be good. I got a few must listens added to my list now. Thanks, Santigold.

[@oscarzabala7270]

Colombian fan here. You fucking ROCK Santigold! Life and Love from SouthAmerica

[@brittonius2]

I love learning about the music the influences other music folks cuz you ready can a sense of their style and how they incorate that into their own music. Santigold one of my FAVES and having listening to her discography so many times, all of these make sense to me. Once again, Santigold is a huge inspiration. I believe in Santigold

[@jbrown7403]

I’m a 56 year old white dude in Texas and I just love her voice, her vibe, her music…her everything! Such a talent! ❤️👍

[@chris21taylor]

I love her, gonna paint an artpiece of her this weekend

[@tdtm82]

Wow that's awesome parenting. Going to a Kuti concert at aged 7. There would been a lot of weed at those shows. Sean Kuti is repping his Dad's work hard. Exceptional picks, classy lady!

[@macphallic]

I freaking adore and respect Santigold mightily!

[@JustinGone]

I love santigold so much. I need to pickup her albums on vinyl. Thanks for the reminder

[@hwizell7478]

Great collection of sounds Give her these 🌹🌸💐🌺🌷🌻🥀🌼💮🪷🪻⏳🎴

[@bakedmuffins4098]

Bonnaroo 2009, I’m 18, she played in the daytime and it was still my favorite show of bonnaroo 09 and 10. I smoked a joint with a stranger and in return he smoked some hash with me. Those were the days

[@RayZappa]

Lady Aicha & Pisko Crane's Original Fulu Mziki Of Kinshasa - new to me, awesome!

[@LeLinda-rh7rx]

Love her she is so underrated for how artistic she is. Seen her twice in concert and loved it.

[@GeekGhostGamerTop]

Santigold loves De La Soul? Holy Hell, she's the real deal. This is why I got hooked to her songs. Disparate Youth is my favorite of hers. Play it every now and then 👏👏👏👏👏👏👊👊👊👊👊✊✊✊✊✊

[@Goatchild90]

Karma is a masterpiece, can never say enough good things about it. 3 Feet High and Rising and Striaght Outta Compton are certified classics. R.I.P. Pharoah Sanders, Eazy-E and Trugoy the Dove.

[@meghanfaith2185]

As soon as I heard Santigold I was hooked, she captures such a specific feeling for me, youth, warmth, city lights twinkling up through the base of my spine God I know thats corny but I love her

[@christinadtla2196]

Santigold is a huge inspiration to me and one of my fave musical artists of all time. It’s funny that she says she can’t watch horror films and that ghosts don’t show up for her because they know she’d be too scared to see them… I say the same things about myself 😂 Thank you for this. I love her so much

[@EboJ13]

Thank you so much for this. Santigold is ALL time favorite. I love seeing her. Great to learn she has a podcast 💗💖

[@1feloniouspunk]

Lovely lovely! Practically perfect in every way!

[@DwayneIsK1NG]

I still have so much damn nostalgia for hearing Unstoppable when i first rented NBA 2K10 when i was a kid. Didn't know who the weird woman was but also couldn't explain why i liked the song so damn much 😂. But every time I have a nostalgic memory of that game, i automatically think of hearing that song while playing the draft combine

[@hhardin8500]

So excited i get to see her in San Francisco in June 🥰😍🥰😍 we love Santigold🥰🥰🥰

[@Wooddweller]

i was so in love with her as a teenager, also still to this day tho

[@ericAlohaMoanaWaves]

so good i had to watch again. … i also love these picks… shes a beautiful soul. amen. would love to meet someday. God bless ya. everyone.

[@cameronangus9166]

Holy shit I’m in love. And those beads and that voice are an ASMR trap.

[@CaapriceTube1]

Haven't heard from Santigold in foreveerrer. So good to see her gain. Used to love her and m.i.a back in my very early college days. 😎✌️

[@jvelez2468]

I had the amazing opportunity to see her in concert at the Highline Ballroom with Estelle and Gnarls Barkley. Unforgettable. She is so unique and beautiful and talented. Thank you, Santigold.

[@pixelcultmedia4252]

Awesome, so much insight into the unique aspects of her sound. Even the awesome bad Kate Bush impression.

[@PiriakaTrackwrecker]

Great episode, she is such a legend!

[@juri991]

oh i love her even more, deep, smart and does not even remotely try to blend in with the stereotypes. does not need to look sexual to be interesting. i truly, truly love her i think i would pass out if i see and talk to her in person

[@adamhellerud2743]

I’ve been listening to Santigold since her first album in 08 I guess. Seeing her tonight for the first time here in Chicago.

[@toddmusic]

So rad. Great artist.

[@mmps18]

Santigold!!! Loved her since the beginning. Hope I get to see her live one day!

[@indigoldd]

Been in love with Santi's work since age 12. It all started with Res's "How I Do" album, not knowing she wrote it at the time

[@Laura-bf8ot]

no wayyyyyyy.. thanks for telling us! 'they-say vision' has been a favorite since childhood.

[@TajahCooksandActs]

When I found out Santi and Martin "Doc" McKinney (exec prod for the Weeknd's Starboy) were behind Res's hit album, I was FLOORED. I only learned of Res back in 2019 and had been listening to Santigold since I was in the 3rd/4th grade (Mtv put me on ngl). So, finding out one of my fav artists collaborated w/ a new fav of mine on their debut felt like a full circle moment.

[@bradcentralen]

Love her and her impeccable taste in art

[@rubyrayne8]

I love her and her musical picks.

[@charlescharliejpeg]

Love Santigold! Her music is so interesting ❤

[@kp4588]

[@steadystate4015]

African Head Charge! ❤❤❤

[@AnastasiaElliot]

I absolutely love her so much

[@MoonChild-zg3gx]

[@sethparker3381]

She just exudes coolness

[@celestialnubian]

A tour with Santigold and Saul Williams would be dope AF!

[@1999_born]

As a big fan of NWA and Santigold, her picking Straight Outta Compton spoke so much to me! Respect her even more as an artist!

[@Sodamachine36]

Def one of the better WIMBs. Love her

[@SANITIZEDINC]

If you ever have a chance to see her live -- GO!

[@woodybalfour8213]

Thanks Amoeba and Santigold

[@Directorkey718]

LOVE SANTI TO THE SKY!!

[@shirleya3615]

I Love How She Got Books, Too !

[@heidikrummert8219]

I feel the same about horror movies.. I'm ok with the ones that don't stick with me..a counselor once told me that your subconscious mind doesn't know it's not you in the movie leading to those sweaty palms, heart beating, etc. Your subconscious mind also remembers everything it's heard throughout the day... it's hearing the conversations in the background, lyrics, and etc..when your winding down your brain starts to syphon all the info you've heard consciously and subconsciously. She told me this to help me realize I indeed have control of my mind when it feels it's spinning out of control 💜

[@nusername]

needed this. thanks.

[@centaurbrain]

love her so much

[@DjWellDressedMan]

My faves: De La Soul, African Head Charge, Fela: and therefore why I like Santigold's music! Saw Santigold at NXNE Toronto 2019.

[@michellequinn3122]

[@mrsszmanda07]

[@glitzersuite9556]

Santigold, you're so awesome please tour Europe again, especially Hamburg Germany

[@cisthej]

[@harvey2609]

[@digitalbridgeCR]

My friend owns the Hitchock family house in VT if you ever want to see it. Desperate Youth is an all time fave. Thanks for showing you're influences.

[@peterengelen2794]

Beautiful haul, Santigold!

[@stone18jo]

Santigold is a mazing! She is so unique and enjoyable.

[@RonaldWilliams-qh7zc]

This young lady right here has very good musical tastes even though I've never heard of her but I'm going to check her out and see what her music is like specially after looking at the music that she listens to especially that jazz!👍💯

[@Qdobafett]

I think I’m in love with Santigold

[@mecaminha]

Awwwww Santi ♥️ What a babe!

[@Dave....]

I've discovered Santigold around like 2007. And that was during a pivotal music period in my life. Before then I was either watching music on TV, listening on the radio or going to the record shop. But after 2006 I was getting into being on music blogs, I was a huge music magazine buff and of course youtube first was created around that time too. I'm pretty sure like the other artists I was discovering at the time like M.I.A, The Cool Kids, Pac Div and such. I think Santi gold, I had first heard of her in some magazine I had picked up during that era. It was such a more simpler time back then, and when you discovered someone new it felt so special.

[@extrashotofespresso_]

LEGEND!! Her music was the soundtrack of my middle school days way back when. 😩

[@Avigailish]

This made me Love 🌸SantiGold🦋🍄even💛more🎀

[@sophiewoodhouse]

🩷 I grew up adoring her music and artistry when my mom gifted me her CDs as a little girl, and I love WIMB for offering such a form of intimacy between artist and influence! - Knowing what your favorites are inspired by is a little thing that just makes my heart so happy. ☺️🎶

[@jmason61]

Cool artist, loved the comment about taking drives with some long dub jams the good ones sound awesome in the car

[@CADsAnonymous]

Santi such a gem ✨
