Tigarah "Japanese Queen”

Meet Tigarah, Japan’s answer to M.I.A., Lady Sovereign and/or Robyn. This political science major took a love for Baile funk and a passion to voice her politics through rhyming and concocted potentially Japan’s first crossover artist. Within this Eastern-tinged grime cut there’s enough attitude in her delivery and skill in the production to line her up alongside Diplo’s gal pal. (tigarah.net)
