I recently stumbled upon this girl called Lalibella and her video to her track Big Star, directed by Marialuisa Ramirez, which is really pretty much a blast.
First al all, as me being an avowing car fetishist, I think the usage of a Jaguar XJS in a music video can be quite difficult, for it is likely to draw away the attention from the artist completely, but luckily this does not happen at all here, which is again kind of an award for Lalibella.
But even more surprising for me it was, being confronted with the fact, that getting information about her would be so hard.
I mean, how many artists, having a video like this, sounding like this, would you expect not having a facebook fan page or a Myspace profile?
Big Star is a beautifully 80s-inspired kind of retro, yet very modern track produced by J Ruffalo – that really has some synths to die for, and is the missing link between M.I.A. and Herbie Hancock. I wouldn’t be surprised at all, if this mixture would make Lalibella a big star by the end of this year. We’ll keep you up to date on her!
Anyone here considered doing this dancing under the hydrant’s fountain this summer?
