Stooshe - Love Me

Feel like I haven't done a review in ages, probably because I couldn't make it to the last newspaper meeting and blah blah. Anyway, here's a (rather badly written because after a day in the uni library, I'm falling asleep) review of Stooshe - Love Me.

Since the surge of girl-bands in the late 90s/early 00s- I’m thinking Spice Girls, Destiny’s Child, even Atomic Kitten- great girl-bands have been few and far between. With a pop resurgence seemingly taking place, there’s surely no better time for a new girl-band to step out.

Say hello to pop/R & B/hip-hop trio Stooshe. Hailing from London, they’re not just your average girl-band- think an up-to-date Destiny’s Child with amplified attitude and the songs to match. Latest single “Love Me” may take a few listens to get used to, but it lies just on the right side of radio appropriacy (providing you don’t venture into the explicit version). Whether you know the words or not, I guarantee you’ll want to get up, dance and attempt to sing along. With added vocals with renowned rapper Travie McCoy, there’s really nothing about this to dislike.

Unashamedly upbeat, fun, and full of three girls’ attitudes (in the right way), Love Me has set Stooshe up for a huge hit. Watch out, girl-bands are back with a vengeance.
