Audio: East Village Radio 5/15
- story THE FADER
Last Friday on The Let Out (our weekly show on East Village Radio, made possible by Dewars) Miss Banks hung out, played us some music she’s been really feeling (Stereolab, Ma$e) and then when we were like, Hey how long do you want to rap for? Two minutes? Three minutes? She looked at us like we were crazy and said, “How about around 45 seconds,” before absolutely destroying a verse. Listen live to East Village Radio this and every following Friday from 6-8pm EST, stream last week’s audio podcast below and check out the tracklist after the jump.

East Village Radio: Miss Banks
- story THE FADER
This week on the Let Out, the FADER’s weekly East Village Radio show (made possible by Dewar’s), Harlem’s Miss Banks is going to come through, and what she’ll do is a mystery to even us. Is she going to rap? Just hang out? Drop a million unreleased bangers into our ear canals? WHO KNOWS! No matter what, it’s going to be awesome. Check out tonight’s show to find out and as always listen live to the Let Out this and every Friday from 6-8 pm on East Village Radio.
Freeload/Stream: 77Klash + Miss Banks + Drop The Lime Megapost
- story THE FADER
Last time we posted about Miss Bank$, we were hoping 77Klash would link her up with some properly tweaked beats, and email has answered our prayers. “P-U-S-S-Y” is Miss Banks over Klash’s Skully riddim (the same he went over for “Caroline,” which is on a FADER 7-inch and easily downloadable). It is possible this song is entirely too raw for a girl who we think is still in high school. Should we even be allowed to listen to this? Is Trina her mom? Either way, she definitely says “the weed is smelling like shampoo.” We can’t print any of the other lyrics. Klash is working on a Skully riddim comp and has a slew of folks planned.
Klash also sent over his new song “Dangerous Nights” from a different EP he has coming out. Drop The Lime produced this it and brings them both solidly pointed in the half direction between weirdo British people with face piercings and serious weed habits that are obsessed with reggae and dancehall and the people in NY and LA (and on the internet) that like to stay out really really late in dark clubs hitting themselves in the face because the bass is too deep. Majorly deep. Check out a stream of that song below and download the Miss Bank$’s filthiness.

Freeload: Miss Banks, “Seventeen” + “Gimme A Chance”
- story THE FADER
Our friends at Klash City Records just signed up a girl whose song we ripped from MySpace last week in order to play it on our weekly radio show. Her name is Miss Banks, she’s from Harlem and she writes rhymes like a drunken sailor. The song we played on the radio was “Gimme A Chance” and is now legitimately downloadable, and Klash City just put up an mp3 of another good one called “Seventeen,” which is her rapping over Ladytron. Hopefully 77Klash will cook up some weird original production for her so we don’t have to do another electroclash cover.
