Sky Ferreira, an American singer/songwriter based in "Fucking LA", and has been described in The Guardian as "the Lolita from LA, the It Girl from Orange County". And truly, Sky Ferreira is quite a character (who apparently made Michael Jackson cry when she sang to him at eleven). She signed with big wig record company EMI in July 2009 and working with Swedish producers Bloodshy & Avant (Britney, JLo) and Paul Epworth (Florence + the Machine, Kate Nash). She is also set to have a collabo with Britney Spears, called Age is Just a Number (looking forward to this).

From the web buzz that Ferreira's been getting, you'd assume her as the naughtierbutlessexplorative little Gaga, but the chops and the ever-popular electrosynths she uses would prove you wrong. Nonetheless, Ferreira exhibits great vocals, proving that this "It Girl" should be taken seriously. She describes her music as "getting hit in the solar plexus..." and also appeared in Paris-based Uffie's Pop the Glock video. 2010 is looking to be a great year in music for the electro-pop culture, and Sky Ferreira definitely has something to add to that.
