KID SISTER
Kid Sister is a Chicago based mc, best known for her single "Pro Nails" featuring Kanye West, took the city’s music scene by storm with dancefloor mayhem. Chicago domination was followed by tours with Kanye West’s DJ A-Trak and then rocking various shows from Chicago to Paris, including an appearance at the Pitchfork Music Festival. The media responded favorably, with features on MTV (“My Block”), Pitchfork, i-D Magazine, XLR8R, The New York Times, Billboard and the cover of URB’s “Next 1000” issue. Her recent Canadian show in Calgary, Alberta, at the Hi Fi Club, left a wake of girl crushes and sprained bootie shakers. Her first album, Ultra Violet, just released and she is riding a wave of success that just may lure her away from Vancouver for too long. MYSPACE: http://www.myspace.com/kidsister
