With a rhythmic sensibility that darts between 4/4 house, #uk garage and more warped, modernist territory (it’s no surprise they’ve got a single penciled in for Brackles and Shortstuff’s Blunted Robots label later this year), Dark Sky appeared on our radar and then flew straight through it with last year’s gymnastic ‘Reflex’ single and their well-received remixes of the xx and Kelis. ** NTS Radio exchange !!

If Minaj and Beyonce are on the top of the industry mountain, they are not secretly plotting ways to shove the other off the edge and into the oblivion of irrelevance.

One could argue that the video embodies aspects of the “Carefree Black Girl” movement, which started as a Twitter hashtag and quickly caught on as a counter-narrative to the tired stereotypes and bigoted cultural tropes used against black girls and women. In an article for BuzzFeed, Hannah Giorgis discusses the importance of musicians challenging the expected narrative, mentioning Kelis, Erykah Badu, Trina, and Rihanna as prime examples. These women reject society’s insistence that black women can only live the tropes of the Jezebel, the Mammy, the Welfare Queen, etc., instead choosing the satisfaction of worry-free self-fulfillment.
