"Her magnificent mongrel beats and eloquent satirising of sex, materialism and pop culture will have you thinking, laughing and dancing, all at the same time." - Grant Smithies - Sunday Star Times

"ludicrously brilliant... the creativity is rampant"- Jim Pinckney - NZ Listener

"Far more clever and has a cheeky exuberance that most hip-hop of any flavour lacks. This shit is cool" Michael Bertin, Austin Chronicle (US).

"like any truly original record it rewards with multiple listens and gradually gets under your skin. This is hip-hop with a difference and its kicking" TNT (UK).

New Zealand's prize femcee Coco Solid has teamed up with Copenhagen producer Robin Hannibal (Owusu & Hannibal fame) to create wild disco-rap anthems as THE PARALLEL DANCE ENSEMBLE (Coco Solid vs Bobbi Soxx)
