Not just a witty pseudonym, Miso Extra is a brilliant artist who sings as sweetly as she raps. With bilingual lyrics which reflect her dual heritage and thought processes, she’s part of the new wave of British hip hop that draws from eclectic sources.
Creating her own “Misoverse”, the young eccentric wears vintage Japanese football strips with her name emblazoned on the front, and cites anime, tech nerdery, food and MF Doom as key influences in her sound. Whatever she does is working right now. She sounds both futuristic and timely.
This playful, cut ‘n’ paste approach to making music is paying off greatly. For the last year, 6Music has really been championing her vibrant sound, which is a good sign. With tracks like ‘1013’ , ‘Space Junk’ and ‘Deep Fried’ using everything from chopped-up accordions to filthy funk, she’s really pushing the genre forward. And nobody knows her real name yet. Give it a year or so…
I listened to the video and yes, she sounds so sweet.
