For anyone that pulled up to or walked past the Canopy Club this past Saturday, the mild summer weather was most likely broken by the abnormally long line that stretched from the Canopy to the front door of the University of Illinois' music building.
A mumbling swarm of rabid hip-hop fans descended from towns around Champaign-Urbana, and even as far as St. Louis, to watch the Canopy Club play host to a hip-hop bill that had landed on the cornfields, and left just as big of an impact.
When I was first introduced to Lykke Li's EP, Little Bit, I was entranced in the sheer uniqueness of her voice and music. Lately, it seems as though too many artists follow a certain guideline to their genre. I'm not saying that these guidelines detract from those bands' talents, but it's just refreshing to hear something new. Sure people will compare Li's pretty pop vocals to Hanne Hukkelburg or El Perro Del Mar, but comparing will never quite do her music justice.
