Mandopop: Shi Shi ft Miss Ko - Let's get crazy (瘋起來)

Two of the coolest female singers straddling the two worlds of Mandopop and american soul/rap is Shi Shi and Miss Ko, and therefore I was very happy when I discovered this song from last year that I had missed out on up till now.

Jpop: Tofubeats - Stakeholder

I totally loved tofubeats single "Don't stop the music", and his sound is really soft and laidback in general. Still, I have been a bit disappointed in the later songs (think Her Favorite, Season Change Clothes or Poolside), as they haven't felt as accessible (or nerdy, or something...). The single "Stakeholder" from his third album with the same name is promising and the video is quite funny, the theme being depicting destructiveness in a relationship in a surprisingly funny and ironic way. The greasy chips finger on someone's glasses is a classic example of nasty everyday sadism... ;-)
