Next week we will be releasing a brand new music video! You’ve heard us talk about Sam Geunjin Kang in the past, we shot it in July, premiered it at ISA in Sept, and showed it on tour the past 2 months…Finally we’re ready to release it to the world on December 10th! Next Thursday!
We first met Sam in August of 2008 at a show. He personally really impressed me with his voice, style, and most of all, his lyrics. Yes, I think lyrics are the most important in any song. A lot of the stuff he rapped/sang about resonated with me, especially a particular song called “Dreams”, which actually moved me quite a bit and prompted me to think about my family. I go a bit more in depth about the song, but you can read that here.
He has another popular song called “Shots and Beer” recounting the story of his childhood friend and how they’ve grown up.
Now when it came time to pick a song for a music video, we didn’t choose either song because we wanted to try something different…which you’ll see in one week. Dec 10. For now, check out some teaser stills from the final video, to his song “Red Light” which can be heard at his myspace.
Curious?? We know that he’s not some YouTube celeb or got some crazy viral video, but I think that’s why we think this video project was pretty cool, because it is someone new that not a lotta people know, a good guy with a lotta talent, who we’re helping to showcase, and I think that’s exciting!

Very impressive. It’s very unique how he combines rap with softer music and acoustic guitar. I found another video that demonstrates his talent pretty well: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EBvt24VUUXY
The only person I can think of who is a bit similar style-wise is Bushwalla, who I also think is very talented.

I see now after viewing his MySpace that a lot of his stuff has a jazz-feel to it. I like.
