Uffie

…it could be the drug that ya need! Also known as Anna-Catherine Hartley, the young musical prodigy was raised in Hong Kong, and after dropping out of fashion school, attracted the attention of Ed Banger, the revered French electronic music label with her single “Pop The Glock.” All it took was one listen from Busy P and that’s it — Uffie was off like a rocket. Her upcoming debut album is scheduled to be released through Elektra Records, and at the tender young age of 22, she’s already sidled herself alongside renowned artists like Felix Da Housecat and Ellen Allien. The list goes on : Steve Aoki has invited her to duet with her, and she’s even done a track with Pharell Williams. If these accolades weren’t enough, even Mike D has remixed one of her songs, “MCs Can Kiss.” She’s been featured on the soundtrack to Pedro Almodovar’s Broken Embraces with Penelope Cruz, and also tackled the brave task of covering the Siouxsie and the Banshees’ classic, “Hong Kong Garden.” On Red Bull Music Academy this week, we get a glimpse of this tremendous young talent in her musical infancy and expect the best.
