Stuck at home on a Friday night

My little sister showed me this video of a young korean boy, probably around the age of 11, playing the guitar like a true master. His name is Sungha. Check him out. I'm amazed. I sure wish I can play like that, but its hard to come by a left handed guitar. Jimmi Hendrix help me out!


MORE THAN WORDS


WAKE ME UP WHEN SEPTEMBER ENDS


LAST CHRISTMAS


Damn, he's good. Props to Sungha! Keep playing little one. You got it made!

My Fav Vids

What's up everyone. Today, I want to share with you my favorite music video's. If you're like me, you are tired of the music in the USA. Don't get me wrong there are some really great songs in the US and there are a lot of music that is just crap. Music over in the US is not original anymore especially in the rap genre. White tee, king of wherever, you got this got that, you got to club get yo' drink on...whatever. That message and hook is old. Tell me something new. This is partly the reason why I look for music around the world. There is a vast amount of talent out there that has yet to be seen by the US. Anyways, I'm rambling.  Are you ready for my all time favorite vids? No? Fuck you then! I'm kidding. Here we go!

I'll start with my all time favorite. 
Motherland-Crystal Kay

This song has got to be my all time favorite. I have been a fan of Crystal Kay for many years now. Her voice will captivate you. Even if you don't understand what the heck she is saying, you can admire the skill and poise she has in her voice. Simply Beautiful. I'm hoping she will come out with a new album soon. I'm also hoping she does more collaborations with Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis(Janet Jackson's producers). Crystal Kay to me by far is the most talented singer I've seen around the world. 

The Grace-My Everything

The Grace has came a long way since they first started. This ballad is what made me want to get into Korean music a little more. Not only are these girls beautiful, but when you hear their voices you'll notice an angelic harmony that leaves you in awe. How can such beautiful voices come from Asian women? Definitely, the break the mold of skill and professionalism when it comes to becoming an entertainer in the asian music industry. 

Sayan Supa Crew

This French Hip hop crew is hottt! I remember picking up a cd while I was in Las Vegas a couple years back. It was a French Hip Hop cd called "Le Flow" and this group was on it. The song on that cd was called "Darkness." That song was bad ass! Anyway, their style and originality in their music is what we need here in the US. 

The Procussions- Miss January featuring Talib Kweli

Lastly, let me bring it back to the USA. It wouldn't be fair for me to go international and forget the place that laid the foundation for most music we hear outside it. This group is very underrated but they have skills and always have a positive message in their music. They are called the Procussions. Every song that I've heard from them are off the chain. Without further rambles, here be my last all time favorite song. Enjoy everyone!

Remember keep your mind open. Music is a universal language. Peace! Time for breakfast!
