KID SISTER wakes me up in the morning instead of a cup of coffee. The very first track sets me off on a cardio explosion and I feel happy working it out before sunrise! Right now, I'm crushin" on STEP (featuring Estelle), they are banging together on that track very well. Then the KID slides into LET ME BANG 2009 which is funky and fresh. Seriously, my feet were moving from RIGHT HAND HI until she slows it down just a bit on DAYDREAMING. Something about LIFE ON TV reminded me of Saturday morning watching That's So Raven with the kids. This album is NOT deep and serious, yet, KID SISTER has some pretty amusing lyrics.

The entire album is crisp, yet, a throwback. That's what I like about it. It's new, but not new. It brings back memories of how hip-hop used to be, how it is, currently; how wonderful to hear a female MC. But then, ULTRAVIOLET isn't just hip-hop. Some tunes have a POP edge; there's singing and techno dance hall stuff going on, too. Like Kid Sister says, "Nobody is doing what she's doing."

First off, I love Kid Sister. I have seen her twice in concert and the only copy of URB magazine I own is the one where she is on it. She is amazing and is totally passed to the side. Bothers me all the time too. I have purchased this album 5 times to give as stocking stuffers for friends at Christmas. She is Old School Hip-Hop mixed with 90's dance shenanigans. She is good, on a super INDIE label called Fool's Gold. She is similar in flare to M.I.A. and much better than Lady Gaga. If you like old school hip hop like Salt N Pepa or Missy Elliot or Da Brat then check her out. I recommend checking out her website and listening to either LIFE ON TV or GET FRESH. Those songs are great and fun to dance to.

This is a love it or hate it album. You'll either be completely annoyed by Kid Sister's overthetype style or you'll be charmed, recieving it as something cute, fun & sassy. Surprisingly I absolutely love this album. I haven't been a fan of the modern hipHop sound for some time. I prefer old Skool' Rap/Hip-Hop from the 80's and early 90's, Which is most likely why I adore Kid Sister's album so much. It's such a throwback. This album is fun, and it shouldn't be taken seriously.

A clash of hiphop, crunk and rap intertwined with electronic/trance and 80's/Pop undertones. It all comes together as pure HOT POP music. The production is excellent, It sounds like quality work and not the trash I was expecting.

The songs are all melodic and colorful. The "Rap Verses" are just Kid Sister cuttin' up and havin' a LARGE time. Even though I DO NOT have a clue to what she's rapping about at times, The beats and hooks are crazy fresh and catchy. It's party music, The energy is remeniscent of 80's pop/dance that was referred to on the radio as the AQUANETTE-SET, Freestyle songs like "Diamond Girl" or stuff by Expose', Covergirl, Neneh Cherry (Buffalo stance) with some Salt'n'Pepa (Push it) and JJ fad (Supersonic) in the mix. All that funk jampacked in this itty bitty disc.

Picture Kid Sister flowin' to an instrumental like "Fresh" by Kool And The Gang. If you like that thought, You'll have a blast this album.

Favorites right off the back are "Right Hand Hi" "Life On TV" "Daydreaming" "Switch Board" "5-4-3-2-1" "Get Fresh" "You Ain't Really Down" & Of course "Pro Nails". (8) Favorites out of (12) calls for a (5) star rating. I'm just so shocked at how much I like this album. I never wouldv'e thought.
