It seems only a few short months ago that Lily Allen was touted as the hottest new thing on the London scene, but here we are, with
Kate Nash - touted as the 'next Lily Allen', with a song nigh atop (#2) the UK charts.
Kate Nash is, on the face of things, very similar sounding to her comparative - but there's something fundamentally different between Nash and Allen. In 'Foundations', we have a barebones vocal-led song with piano backing, lacking the faux-reggae beats and watery vocals of Allen. Nash is more grown-up, more indie, more edgy - and more credible as a result.
