Eliot Pauline Styler-Sumner, aka Coco, otherwise known as I Blame Coco, is (as the music connoisseur's amongst you may already have spotted) the daughter of Sting, so it's fair to say that she has quite a name to live up to. Although this link may have made the route in to music slightly easier for her, recording her album in Sweden with producer Klas Ahlund also had its benefits, especially when it comes to latest single, 'Caesar', on which the Swedish artist Robyn (who also works with Ahlund) lends her vocals. The fact that Robyn specifically requested to add another vocal part to the chorus is glowing tribute indeed to the talent of the 19 year old Coco.
Having seemingly inherited her father's habit of tending to sing in a faux reggae style accent, Coco has been touted as the Amy Winehouse or Duffy of her chosen genre. The track itself is driven along by a distorted, scuzzy bass line with Robyn's smoother vocals providing a good contrast to Coco's deeper tones on the chorus. The energy of the track lends itself perfectly to club tracks so it's no surprise that several remixes have already surfaced and two of these can be yours for free by clicking on the links below.
