“You wonʼt ever hear a Timbaland Knock-offbeat from me, mate.” That spat from the mouth of Croydonʼs grime-pop princess Goldielocks, the urban fashionista all the girls flexing their Nikes and gold hoops are wishing they could be. Boldly pioneering female ambition in an industry dominated by males. Fed up with labels telling her how she should sound, what she should wear and who she should work with Goldielocks has decided to go it alone. Her new label is called ʻGut Instinctʼ and her new EP is ʻIʼm Not Herʼ. This past year Goldielocks has been focusing on writing and developing a more mature sound. Now 24, Goldielocks feels she has different subject matters to talk about, her music has become darker more emotive and thoughtful.

Goldielocks is sort of the anti-popstar claiming “I donʼt want to be famous, I enjoy music, making music and being creative without limits. I don't want to make music for 14yr olds. I want to make music that makes people feel something. I hate the charts, music rip offs and everything sounding the same.” The EP ʻIʼm Not Herʼ is inspired by London, underground music scenes - 2step / garage / grime and dubstep, paranoia, relationships and concealed emotions.

Some information on the new E.P. 'I'm Not Her'... The Benga collaboration came about after a journalist, called saying Benga was looking for a female vocal on an electro track. She had heard of Benga and was into the dubstep scene especially coming from Croydon and growing up listening to pirate radio. The two began making beats at Benga's home studio but when he realised she made her own beats and was more into garage and dubstep they got started on some of their own productions the end result was track 'Green Eyes'. ʻAddictʼ is self written and produced, ʻNeon lightsʼ is co written and produced with Dreams 2.5 finally ʻCold Sweatʼ is co written and produced by Synth Girl.
