Kate Nash – Foundations | Single & Video Review

I want to hate Kate Nash, I really do. She’s being feted by so many publications and music journos as the next big thing, that I don’t want to join that throng of bandwagon jumpers. But I can’t help myself. I came on ready to slate her, piss on her chips and generally say she’s a Lily Allen wannabee, but while that may be true to a degree, I can’t help but like this single.

Kate Nash is currently sitting at number 2 in the charts behind Ri “yes it’s raining dear, and you have an umbrella, so do you want a medal?” Hanna, and I’m willing her on for the 2nd week in a row to overtake her and be the new number 1. This track called ‘Foundations is a grower, it chips away at your unconscious between listens, until you are also in Kate Nash’s corner willing her on to overcome the ‘Fake Lily Allen’ jibes she’s being labelled with.

Lily Allen seems lazy but I’ve felt it right to do so all the way through this review. With so many similarities, it would be foolish not to refer to Lily while discussing Kate’s official debut single. I’m hoping the hype will die down, and the album called ‘Made Of Bricks’ will prove Kate Nash has more to her than simply Lily Allen Mk 2, but only time will tell.
