Just for Fun

I’m a huge hip hop fan, and i always will be. I listen to jazz too, old skool mind u, the rat pack kindda thing. ( Dad’s influence). But you gotta hear this guy out, kindda slow tune with the whole unplucked strings guitar gig and all, but i gotta give it to him, he’s good… I heard it while viewing this girl on Youtube, she Vlogs and she’s funny as hell!! Check out her vids here.

In the meantime, enjoy the song!

The beauty of social media and how it can give the small guys the ‘big break’ they need.

    Hey, I liked this, even though it’s a tad bit popish for my usual taste! He’s got a great mellow sort of voice. Reminds me sort of Jack Johnson in that aspect.

    Agree about how social media can ‘give the small guys the “big break” ‘ and it works across so many industries – music, journalism, tech and all. Of course, it works both ways too, making or breaking a person’s reputation.

    I’m just wondering long will it take before it’d get old selling yourself on YouTube. Wonder what the next alternative marketing channel will be then!

    Haha, i feel the same way abou the song, The interesting thing was that you could purchase this song from a link on Youtube itself.

    I say social networking sites with open soial is gonna be the next marketing channel, haha, these ‘small guys’ ought to form a soial networking site with all the apps from open social they can use to spread their music faster!

    Interesting. But isn’t it still relying quite a bit on the “pull” appoach…they still have to get people to go to the page to view the video. “Good news” does not travel as quickly as “bad news” — when it’s a “break reputation” situation, word goes around quickly and everyone wants to take a look. BTW, I can’t stand the song!
