“Upbeat hip –pop with an undeniable appeal that straddles a middle ground between Lauryn Hill and Lily Allen†- Music Week
Blend the old- school R & B sound with a quirky hybrid of hip-hop and pop and you get Little Jackie. Little Jackie are genre-defying singer songwriter Imani Coppola and programmer Adam Palllin. They are from Brooklyn and between them have made an album called “The Stoop†out September 1st. Their debut single is entitled, ‘The World Should Revolve Around Me’ out August 25th.
A poppy sassy track, the song features whimsical lines like, ‘I bide my time with philosophical questions/Not for nothing but what came first/The chicken nugget or the egg McMuffin’
In fact the whole album is a witty lyrical assault on the social and cultural issues that consume public life today. With a nod to the soulful Motown rhythms of the past, Coppola has crafted an album of musical sugar and spice, filled with sweet saccharine-tinged melodies and spicy bold commentaries. It’s the sound of the summer 2008.
The single, ‘The World Should Revolve around Me’ have already been tipped by both Music Week and Popjustice
“One of the best albums of 2008. It’s includes 11 amazing songs†– Popjustice
