THEE Satisfaction, Katie Kate @ Neumos | 02/09 | 8 pm | $8
Seattle has a really strong hip hop scene, but often overlooked are the many female fronted groups that are also out there holdin’ it down. Whether you are unfamiliar with this side of the scene or an avid supporter, make sure you get down to Neumos Tuesday night to check out the action. THEE Satisfaction will be bringing their upbeat positive flows, and sweet dance moves to the stage to headline this all female review.
Their style is a blend of classic hip-hop hooks and smooth R&B vocal overlays reminiscent of Erykah Badu. Tracks such as “Waltz” are clean, jazzy, rhythmic, and have vocals that will leave you bobbing your head. Musically, they are solid all the way around, and as stage presence goes, you will not be disappointed. These ladies know how to perform. Check out this track from their set at Sneaker Pimps, and then go to their Myspace for a better listen.
If you ever found yourself on Katie Kate’s myspace, you wouldn’t have to look around very long before you started to notice that she is a bit of a contradiction. Self proclaimed farm girl turned hip-hop star, her music is a clever mixture of urban tales and country innuendo; particularly the track “hunting,” a song about hitting the club and looking to hook up, euphemized with lines about guns and bait. Her rhymes are smart and smooth, as are the beats and hooks. If you’ve never seen her, take the time this Tuesday to head down to Neumos. It’s a pretty deep bill, with Canary Sing, Lisa Dank, Queerbait, Sap’n, and DJ Colby B. Show starts at eight so get there early!
