Stas and Cat take it all on with purpose and purity. Sub Pop, 2012 8.5 / 10.0 Stasia Irons and Catherine Harris-White are THEESatisfaction, a nouveau-duo marrying hip-hop and soul , funk and feminism, art and production. The Seattle, Washington duet released their first full-length [...]
Singer Catherine "Cat" Harris-White and rapper Stasia "Stas" Irons, otherwise known as THEEsatisfaction , met in 2006 while attending the University of Washington. Stas first encountered Cat while attending her open mic performances. Initially intimidated by her powerhouse performances, it took her some time to drum up the courage to to approach her, but once contact was established, the pair embarked on a partnership that would find them featured as guest performers on Shabazz Palaces' 2011 album, "Black Up" . This collaboration led them to being signed to [...]
Fresh off the back of the release of their first album 'awE naturalE', Stas & Kat have made a video. I was lucky enough to see THEESatisfaction live in Manchester last year, when they were supporting Shabazz Palaces, and they completely blew me away. They are definitely a unique talent, blending that traditional hip hop
THEESatisfaction - Awe Naturale Sub Pop: 2012 Over my couple of years writing here at Potholes I’ve been pretty clear about my affinity for R&B that is alternative , on that progressive soul , boho booty bump , or rooted to the gut bucket blues . Tight song writing, big hooks, and catchy melodies are low on my preferences for contemporary rhythm-n-blues as the late-50s to early-80s had that game on lock. The truth is in a world where rap, electronic, and indie rule the blogosphere, it’s hard for R&B and [...]
THEESatisfaction By Russell Warfield April 24, 2012 You'll have to forgive this review for failing to get beyond the fact that THEESatisfaction – the slinky duo whose recent LP gave a much needed injection of old school spirit and soul into traditionalist black music – play their live shows from a fucking backing tape . In one fell swoop, all the soul is drained from this music – a hollow husk of a laptop in the shadows of where the horn section should be grooving, [...]
If things were up to us, the next year or so in R&B/ soul would be completely shifted to fall in complimentary line with the kooky goodness being served on "QueenS", the lead-off cut from Seattle-based hip hop duo's THEESatisfaction 's Album of the Year-worthy debut awE naturalE . More clever, funky, creative, cool, soulful and groovalicious than about 98% of anything the genre has produced in recent memory and excitingly sounding like the past and future of Black pop folding unto itself, "QueenS" is the soul-lovers' definition of the kind of [...]
Soul-funk duo THEESatisfaction and probably the closest thing we've got going to having another Floetry premieres the all girls evening clip for their pulsating track 'QueenS' off of the brilliant debut project ' awE naturalE .' Watch the empowering visual above.

THEESatisfaction son Stasia Irons y Cat Harris-White de Seattle, dos chicas haciendo mucho ruido. Su música es una especie de neo-soul+funk con mucha onda. Su álbum debut awE nautralE salió hace unas semanas en Sub Pop. Enjoy. ♩ THEESatisfaction - QueenS
THEESatisfaction releases a video for the track "QueenS," which is the lead single from the experimental soul and hip hop duo's latest album, awE naturalE. Catch a glowing review of the album right here .
THEESatisfaction - awE naturalE By Russell Warfield The balance between swagger and approachability is one of the hardest to strike in all of popular music, but with their succinct debut LP, THEESatisfaction spend half an hour stridently walking the tightrope (hips shaking, ass grinding). It's all in the title: awE naturalE – a record which is in one sense overawing with its effortless channelling of old-school soul, funk and jazz, delivered with the sort of you-can't-touch-this sexual confidence rarely synonymous with overtly gay acts. But then [...]
You may have heard the, for lack of a better word, swagtastic sounds of TheeSatisfaction on Shabazz Palaces fantastic 2011 album Black Up. They bring those same neo-soul, hip-hop sounds to their own great debut awE naturalE. The members of the group, Catherine Harris-White and Stasia Irons have fantastic chemistry, the former's voice and the latter's verses intermingle and flow around one another like wisps of smoke. The two complement one another beautifully as any neo-soul group of recent memory. Their sound is a collage of jazz, hip-hop and R&B, if tUnE-yArDs and Erykah Badu had a baby it would [...]
In 1969, musician and composer Nina Simone wrote these lyrics: “To be young, gifted and black/Oh, what a lovely, precious dream” and “When you feel really low/Yeah, there’s a great truth you should know/When you’re young, gifted and black/Your soul’s intact.” I wish Simone had lived to see THEEsatisfaction (she died in 2003) – I think she’d have loved the Seattle-based duo. For all their ambivalent swagger, the words written by Stasia Irons and Catherine Harris-White unveil deep engagement with the life and culture around them: “We all watch things morphing every [...]
Justin Timberlake may have brought sexy back years ago, but THEESatisfaction’s new album spins the hip-bumping grooves to bring that sexy back to your place.
Last year we fell in love with Shabazz Palaces album Black Up , partly due to the wonderful female accompaniment (i.e. "Endeavors For Never" ) from THEESatisfaction. 2012 finds the powerful duo releasing material of their own, equally as funky, spaced out, and attitude filled as Shabazz, this time from a woman's perspective. The two would make one hell of a power couple. With their album streaming over at NPR , it's clear that we've only begun to experience the brilliance we can expect from this camp. "Enchantruss" off the upcoming [...]
Stream THEESatisfaction's debut album over at NPR . The previously released tracks, "Enchantruss" and "QueenS" had me super hyped for the LP and after my initial listen I'm thinking it definitely delivers the quality material I was hoping to hear. Production wise awE naturalE touches on funk, hiphop, jazz, and even a bit of rock. While I haven't had the time to engage in a focused "lyrical" listen, from what I can tell they stay on point throughout. Palaceer Lazaro of Shabazz Palaces is featured on "Enchantruss" along with one of [...]

THEESatisfaction- KEXP Session

The Needle Drop
The Needle DropNeo-soul/experimental hip hop duo THEESatisfaction stopped by KEXP to record a session video fairly recently. The pair didn't play anything from their loved debut album , but they did perform a couple of non-album highlights, respectively titled "Pause" and "Do You Have The Time." The video does a particularly good job of capturing the interplay between the group's Stasia Irons and Catherine Harris-White, which should be especially rewarding for fans of the dynamic the two displayed on awE naturalE . Check out the session above.
