Undoubtedly one of the standout cross-over artists to break through in 2008, Santogold has won herself many fans since the release of her self-titled debut earlier this year. Collabs with Diplo and Mark Ronson, arena tours with Coldplay, stoushes with washed up infomercial hosts… it’s been a busy few months to say the least.

Heading down under for her hotly anticipated debut Australian tour later this month, Santogold has now found herself immortalized in a track by one of hip hop’s most iconic artists; Jay-Z. The refrain from her track Shove It has been used by Jigga in Brooklyn (We Go Hard), a song he’s contributed to the soundtrack for the new Biggie Smalls biopic Notorious.
