Dang. Lykke Li. This broad is getting major hype. Not only is she bringing it, but she’s really dope and talented. If you haven’t heard of the Swedish newcomer’s “free spirited, performance pop” from my Urban Outfitter’s LSTN #1 post a while back, you are missing out. But, don’t fret—it’s not too late.
The first song that I heard from her was “Little Bit”. I think I was replaying it for a couple of times (along with some others) when I was listening to the LSTN #1 album. Here’s her first video:

If you dig her, go support and get her album Youth Novels, now available at Amazon.
