New Rye Rye - Bang (feat. M.I.A.)

Rye Rye has put a new track up on her myspace featuring M.I.A., in what could be her first track since giving birth. “Bang” is exactly what you’d expect from Baltimore babe Rye Rye- a little electro layered with her raps. Rye Rye’s newest tracks seem to be showing off a little more percussion based than other tracks like “Shake It To The Ground”. “Wassup” and now “Bang” seem to give that impression.

In other style changes, Rye Rye’s myspace really have changed their look to resemble M.I.A.’s artwork- a fusion between Kala and Arular’s coverworks. I told you she’s a little too much like M.I.A… I’m willing to look past that fact if she continues putting out tracks as awesome as this.

Birdman - Pop Bottles (Death to the Throne Remix) and other remixes of Chromeo and Rye Rye

I have to say, when I go to a myspace and I see that it has about 40 friends, I don’t expect much about the music. Death to the Throne totally proved me wrong. Holy shit. This guy’s remixes are so good! So electro. I can’t stop listening to them all the time.

Rye Rye & M.I.A. - Tic Toc
Mad Decent released a new track by Rye Rye and the “retired” M.I.A. It’s a downtempo track. I like it, it’s chill. The background music sounds like the took a sample from a Yelle song or something. It just sounds like her voice. I don’t know.

M.I.A. is real fickle. Does anyone remember after she released Arular when she was like “I’ve pretty much have said all I needed to said so I don’t know if I’ll be making an album”. that’s obviously not a direct quote.

I’m pretty sure we can hear a lot more from Rye Rye (if not M.I.A.) in the future. Paul Devro of Mad Decent thinks so – “Keep your eye out, expect big things from Rye-Rye coming up!!!”

By the way, this is definitely a Rye Rye & M.I.A. track… not vice versa.

Rye Rye - Wassup Wassup (Crookers Remix) // The more I listen to Rye Rye the more I like her sound. I only really have myspace rips, or at least I didn’t until i stumbled upon the Crookers remix of “Wassup Wassup” that I have been looking for forever. I heard this classic Rye Rye track in a set Crookers did for KISS FM. The remix doesn’t sound exactly the same as it did in that mix, but it’s still siiiick. Crookers makes awesome, bouncy remixes.

I hope you guys have checked out Rye Rye’s myspace page at some point. I’m in love with the “Gangsta Girl” track. I’m too lazy to rip it off her myspace. Can’t someone just blog about it so I can have an excuse to have it?

Sometimes I wonder if Rye Rye likes M.I.A. too much. Recently I haven’t noticed it, but in the remix of “Paper Planes” with Rye Rye and Afrikan Boy, I think she says something about how much she loves her.

I think Rye Rye can get away with liking M.I.A. as much as she does. She has her own sound and style. It’d be a whole ‘nother story if she sounded exactly like M.I.A. and she worshipped her. It’d be like Mini-M.I.A.
It’s probably really hard to sound exactly like M.I.A. Her sound changes so often and it’s always so unique. I respect that. There’s no duplicators.

You guys should be able to compare the original “Wassup Wassup” to the remix. It’s shitty quality and kind of obnoxious of me to post because it’s a myspace rip, but here it is. I might take it down after a week or so if I remember.
