About Santogold feat. Spank Rock
Santogold's style has been compared often to that of Yeah Yeah Yeahs, M.I.A. and Missing Persons. White said of the M.I.A comparison that they are both women who have similar influences and have worked with some of the same people," but that her "music is different and she wasn't influenced by what the press was saying", adding "I can't think of anybody who would be a better fit of somebody who I'm like... I think what's accurate about that comparison is that she's an artist who has loads of different influences... and is putting things together in a way that's unexpected and genreless."Some of Santigold's material has been compared to that of Pixies, whom Santigold herself has cited as an influence. Santigold has also said that she is inspired by 1980s pop music. "I felt that a lot of pop music from the '80s had a depth to it, and I hope to bring back some more good pop songs." White also stated her liking for New Wave and added that "My Superman" is based on a Siouxsie & the Banshees' song, "Red Light". The singer also cites Blondie, Grace Jones, Devo whom she describes as her "ultimate favorite band", Fela Kuti, James Brown, Aretha Franklin and reggae music as influences.
