Light hit my face like a straight right is the second album by Australian artist Mallrat, and it was #9 on my Wicked25. She's so uniquely Australian that she hasn't broken too far out of that country yet.
Today's post is the 4th single from the album - a hip-hop tinged affair that has received some acclaim, and rightly so - it's a fun tune that also hits kind of hard and somewhat empowering. Co-written by the artist, it's definitely an autobiographical tune that tells the story of a woman who has been told to just give up on her dreams and refuses to listen.
Just because she hasn't broken yet in the US does not mean she isn't trying. I think she's poised to be huge and this performance and others like it - a California performance in October - is a huge reason why. Her music is full of the same energy and verve she brings to the live show.
