Not sure about this really but it's probably one of the more interesting things around at the mo.

Yep, "The Stoop."

I think "World Should Revolve Around Me" is excellent, and there are several sort of placeholder tracks throughout that keep the atmosphere of that one -- and the arrogance, which I like if used well -- without being quite as attention-grabbing (a good thing).

I don't think there's very much subtle about this one, but then lyrical subtlety isn't really her thing. That's one thing I like about it -- the music is summertime sunshine neosoul a la Lily Allen, and the music kind of waters down all of the lyrics (except the Amy Winehouse one, which begs for attention a bit more forcefully); it's just that the lyrics to a couple of the song are SO TERRIBLE that they really ruin the party.
