Famed ADAM ANT Bassist CHRIS CONSTANTINOU & Welsh Vocalist RUDEGRL Share New Song & An Old Favorite From Their Hip Hop/Punk Rock Hybrid Project!

2nd August 2023 0 By Jon Deaux

Sometimes the oddest pairings produce the most astounding results. Take, for instance, the fire and ice fusion of veteran British bass player Chris Constantinou, best known for his work with Adam Ant and Lou Reed, and a young female hip-hop artist from Wales who goes by the moniker RudeGRL. These two visionary artists have been kicking down generational doors and flouting genre conventions since the release of their first album as RudeGRL+CC in 2020. And just like any powerful synthesis, the outcome is not just greater than the sum of its parts but something else entirely.

 

Nothing proves the promise of this unique unity more than RudeGRL+CC’s brand-new single, which is released today on all digital platforms. The two-track doubleshot brings the goods twice over with a superbly catchy party banger original, “I’m Good,” that becomes a brilliant exhibition of RudeGRL’s unmatched wordplay. The track gets a crucial assist from Kaiser Chiefs drummer Nick Hodgson on the audio mix, and the accompanying video provides the perfect platform for the third member of RudeGRL+CC, performance artist Bunni Morretto who brings her own strong visual element to the band.

The single’s second track, meanwhile, takes a page from Constantinou’s rich history with a thoroughly modernized take on the Adam Ant classic “Goody Two Shoes.” The new version features guitar work from Hal Lindes of Dire Straits who also mixes the track. Fans of the original are sure to find this fantastic cover just as fresh and titillating as the version they fell in love with back in 1982.
