Some good ole British pop courtesy of Lily Allen, daughter of Keith Allen — mastermind behind England's Euro 96 anthem "Vindaloo", has been mega-hyped around different blogs as of late. Give these tunes a listen and decide if she's buzz-worthy:
MP3: Lily Allen –LDN
Some good ole British pop to listen to while on the road when traffic jams abound. It’s cute and catchy but easily worn-out after a few repeated listens.
MP3: Lily Allen – Knock Em Out
Now this I like a lot. "Big Chief" by Professor Longhair is sampled at the start and thumping drums greet you as you are invited to listen intently, then Allen then raps ala Mike Skinner, afterwards singing the attention-grabbing chorus. “Just get off my face, just leave me alone!” she says, giving girls around the world tips on how to reject oncoming guys on bars.

i’m afraid punters are going to backlash soon enough, as hypocritical as it may well be, and as this cunt at The Guardian already has. Mainstream paper journalists- so hip you know?
