Duffy

One of the reasons that i love watching VH1 is because they have music short called "You Oughta Know." In this music short VH1 introduces new music and artists. One artist that I am particularly interested in is Duffy. Duffy made her way over from the U.K. as well and has her first single here in the U.S. called "Mercy." She has a very different style of music, sounding almost like updated Motown. She is looking to revive the energy and production of the past and give it a kick of Duffy flavor. She has not made it "big" just yet, being that her album had released in the beginning of March and most people will still say "Duffy who?" when hearing her name. But I feel that VH1 truly does make an impact with their music shorts. It's a way to spread the word about new upcoming music and help new artists get on their feet. Duffy is getting there, she was premiered on New York's famous radio station Z100 just a week ago and the sound is spreading.
