In The Mix: Ms. Dynamite Relights Her Fuse
A Little Deeper, the Mercury Prize-winning debut album from Ms. Dynamite, was full of fantastic, introspective R & B jams, but it didn’t showcase the MC skills that made her a turn-of-the-century MP3 sensation nearly enough. This summer, she teamed up with the London rapper Akala–he’s also her younger brother–to release the mix CD A Little Darker; check out her rapidfire delivery on the manic “Don’t Stop,” which is structured around a stuttering violin loop.
