Remi Nicole - Rock 'n' Roll
Following in the wake of Lily Allen, Kate Nash etc. is another cross-over urban-indie (or pop, as they all are really) girl from London, Remi Nicole. Rock 'n' Roll is a great story song, found on her MySpace. Her current single is Fed Up but this surely has to be next as it's bound to be her breakthrough hit, if she's going to have one. Whether there's room for her in addition to Lily and Kate will be seen in time, but this track about ditching r'n'b for r'n'r (even better would be ditching both for pop, of course) is lots of fun with funny fast-paced lyrics and a bouncy beat. I've also never heard a song name-checking Channel U (very low budget urban music channel on Sky) before!
