Amanda Blank
Warfield
Popscene
Amanda Blank performs twice on Thursday, May 21: supporting Santigold at the Warfield (8 p.m., $28.50-$32, www.goldenvoice.com) and then at Popscene (10 p.m., $10-$12, www.popscene-sf.com).
Over the last few years, Philly MC Amanda Blank scored props by playing and collaborating with locals Spank Rock, Diplo, Aaron LaCrate, and Plastic Little. Her debut album, I Love You (due in July), bears the fingerprints of her hipster pals, although most of the attention should fall on her lyrics, which are rude as Redd Foxx and as sharp as Wolverine's claws. Whether carving up Britney or boasting about how fresh her pussy tastes, Blank deserves maximum attention — along with outright respect.
