#3 - LADI6

Ladi6 (Karoline Tamati) One of my top 3 female NZ vocalists easy! Her style, voice & what she can do with a mic is like ooooweee, straight up! She's been around and on the scene since as early as 1999 with Sheelahroc (Woman are the strength) which combined mc'in, dance & turntabilism, going on to create the classic "If I Gave You The Mic". Soon after breaking out as the lead vocalist of band Verse Two including musos Scribe, Julien Dyne & where she met partner Parks, what a lucky dude! lol



Check this clip. Simple as it gets, pretty much nothing at all. It's all Ladi6! The groove is solid and Ladi6 rips up with her smooth sexy as vocals & to top it off, her dancing is simple but in full effect cause not anyone can pull that shit off, but she got the feel on lock! I've been to a few of her live Auckland gigs & when she performed this & Caroline (see that track here) she ripped it up, she was in the zone! Not only can she sing, she can switch it up with a verse on the mic tip; if that's not foxy, I don't know what is!





She's got natural sex appeal with her music! When she runs game on the mic, it's all fire but I don't think she's flossin' it, it's just the vibe you get lol She's got a lot under her name: Touring with Fat Freddys, Touring Europe, Colabing with 50hz, Shapeshifter, Solaa, Salmonella Dub, Sepalot & many other established artists, so she's done her thing & still doing it! Her debut album "Time Is Not Much" showed everyone what's up and was worth the wait. Make sure to cop her album & see her live when you can. She's dope, one of my favourites. The tattoo on her hand is fly too! Here's a track from her, now go get the album!
