    '99 cents' is a great album hiding behind a curtain of emptiness and distant, emotionless presentation. With a few stylistic changes it could easily be Santigold's best release.

    For every song that I replay, there’s another that I skip.

    It’s initially fun to play spot-the-references, but in the best moments the sounds are harder to pin down.

    Although the bulk of the album oscillates between sarcasm and sincerity, the most fully realized songs transcend that spectrum entirely.
