Music That I am Digging

Listen and tell me what you think.

So I discovered Justin Nozuka one night while watching VH1. I like the sound of his voice. As you can see he is Asian. The music industry is going to put him out there to see if he can sell CDs and MP3s as a test. If his album flops you can best believe the industry will hesitate to give another Asian male a chance.

Justin Nozuka-After Tonight



The second song I'm digging is by Gnarles Barkley. I can't seem to get enough of this song. I brought the single on Sunday and already the song has made it's way into the top 25 most played songs on my Ipod. Usually it's the beat of a song that gets me, and I may never learn the words but with this song, the words got me and well as the beat. This is the type of song that you would play when you are breaking up with someone because the two of you are not going in the same direction.
I have the first Gnarles Barkley album and most of the songs had to grow on me. When I purchase the new album, I will give a run down.

Dat Gnarls Barkley video is WEIRD. Been trying to figure out what the last few seconds of the clip mean.

If I were to listen to Justin on the radio...I would have never known that he was Asian. Great Voice, hopefully he makes it.

@amina- Good, I hope you enjoy it.
@e2deep-Justin has no accent. I think he was born in the states and raised in Toronto.
@standtall-thanks, I had one up until a few years ago. Try the SPCA in your city.

I loved that Gnarls Barkley. I love them as a group, but the images were especially cooling to my hot spirit. I really don't get to see a lot of videos that don't make me feel like a minority, and fewer still that feature smiling, exuberant, talented, healthy black males absent of the consumerist bubble they're often placed in.
