Kero Kero Bonito: Picture This
London-based based trio Kero Kero Bonito know how to get listeners dancing regardless of what country they’re from, with vocalist Sarah half-rapping in English and Japanese over colorful beats peppered with video game-like samples. Her catchy lyrics are blunt, sometimes bizarre and often hilarious. For instance the Kero Kero Bonito frontwoman gives her account as a girl gamer in “Sick Beat.” “It’s often said I should get some girly hobbies instead,” she raps, “But that thought fills me with dread/ I’m not into sewing, baking, dressmaking, not eating, bitching, submitting.” Their latest single “Picture This” pokes fun at the act of taking pictures and the culture of over-sharing, and as expected, is supremely danceable.
