I’ve really gotta hand it to Solange. After a failed attempt at a hit album, a failed marriage (that produced the adorable “Baby Daniel”) she seemed to begin feeling comfortable living in big sister Beyonce‘s shadow. Her recent turn as a neo-60′s starlet (hardly an original approach after the Winehouse/Duffy/Allen/Ronson bomb) was unexpected to say the least, but its her stage presence and approachability that’s most surprising. Just this month, an obviously-drunk concert-goer decided to join Miss Knowles on-stage, was ushered away by security, only to be called back by the singer who danced with him throughout her set, after saying “He ain’t hurtin nobody!” Hardly the un-diva approach her sister would have taken, no?

Here with her second single off her upcoming album, “Sandcastle Disco” continues the retro feel, combining startlingly fresh visuals and a peppy club-friendly collection of melody.
