Little Jackie are an American band consisting of Imani Coppola and Adam Pallin. Little Jackie, which derives their name from the 1989 hit song "Little Jackie Wants to Be a Star" by Lisa Lisa and Cult Jam, released a hit single in 2008 called "The World Should Revolve Around Me" from their debut album The Stoop. Coppola was a solo singer, whose most successful single was "Legend of a Cowgirl", from the 1997 album Chupacabra. Adam Pallin is the DJ/programmer of the band.In 2008, Coppola and Pallin signed a contract with S-Curve, an independent label owned by Steve Greenberg, to issue an album. This coincided with the duo's television debut on Late Night with Conan O'Brien. Album promotion is by Nabbr, a company that has created viral video campaigns for Justin Timberlake and Amy Winehouse.Imani Coppola, originally signed as a solo act with Columbia Records, plans to approach the music business differently with Little Jackie, bolstered by her experiences. She also sees Little Jackie as an opportunity to get back into pop.
Ok let me just say this...Little Jackie...It just seems like it's just Imani Coppola and Adam's just getting dragged along for the ride..I mean when you see their photos and their promo photos it's either Imani Coppola in the frontground or just Imani Coppola herself in the photo. No Adam at all.
I love Imani Coppola! But I do have rules and standards..You have to include everyone in the band. Have equal photos. Equal rights. All in All equality in music bands.
Nonetheless this duo is a great collaboration of 2008. Just like many other 2008 duo collaboration artists/bands the women have been heard of and or recognized before the project. And the guys have never been heard of.. Sad but true mostly..Little Jackie's songs have the great vocals of Imani Coppola and the cool beats of Adam Pallin. Their music likes and sounds are resembled to old-school Hip Hop/Pop music. The band did get recognition when they're song "Whole Word Should Revove Around Me", played as New York's new show "New York goes to Hollywood. People still haven't heard much about Little Jackie.[They're too busy boobin' there heads to bad music..]
So far no news of new album.
In their myspace page Imani Coppola is their Myspace picture. Plus when people blog about the group they talk about Imani the most. It's sad...I love Imani but...Equality is best..No equality the band will break...(example:Destiny's Child)
Well then let's talk about Adam. Adam's choreographed work with the melodies and beats on their album the Stoop are a great fit and a nice sound of the old-fashioned Hip Hop/Rap/Pop R&B of the Past. He's a pretty good programmer for an unknown one! You know not as big as Guy Sigsworth or Greg Kurstin but not as unheard of as Yoko Kanno, Danger Doom, and The Round Table. I like his work. Hip Hop beats with infectious pop styles..Very Original..Cool!
Imani Coppola, is a solo artist that is known for her big close to mainstream hit, "Legend Of A Cowgirl". She released about 5-7 albums. All self-released except for Chupacabra and Black & White albums. Her explicit styles and musical rants brought in many fans of the f*ck off attitude artist.
She's made a sweet name of herself. Many on the internet talks about her...It's great.
