We present a little international flavor for you this late evening/early morning. All of these songs are originally song by artists around the world, with the exception of one North American Pop hit that was remade into Chinese. So we hope you enjoy your aural trip around the world with these 8 covers/remixes! (And yes, some “Gangnam Style” remixes are in here too… much to the chagrin of yours truly)

Just ‘Cause: Solomon (son of PK) Shows you the Sonic Dance

Kids really do say (and in this case, do) the darnedest things. And that’s why they are awesome. See, we already knew that PK (founder of Kollaboration) wasn’t too shy to show the world his son’s dance moves. Even as a toddler, the kid could move. But now we can get a glimpse of his more mature and improved material, courtesy of the childhood development of bodily motor skills. Copyright that dance and have some teen rapper do it in a video – BOOM – instant riches.

Do the sonic! Why? Just ‘Cause.

If you like what you hear, pick it up for $7. That’s like, 33 cents a track! What a steal.

Paul “PK” Kim is the founder of the Kollaboration competition series – a platform for Asian-American artists that was built on the motto of “Empowerment through Entertainment”. Though he’s since stepped down from the director position, his vision is still being realized. The Jubilee Project has released a spotlight interview video on PK, interspersed with footage from one of the last shows he hosted – Kollaboration DC 2010. #DreamBig

The Jubilee Project had the opportunity to spotlight an incredible leader in the community, Paul “PK” Kim who began Kollaboration over 10 years ago. Kollaboration has since become a national force that has discovered an incredible number of talented people around the country and empowered young people around the world.

We hope this is an inspiration to #DreamBig!

Why? Just ‘Cause.

Do you know who PK is? You should. One could say he’s just as influential as any artist in creating a stage and spotlight for many of the artists that we know and love. The comedian and former Kollaboration director is also the father to a young lad named Solomon, who seems to share his old man’s goofiness and penchant for entertainment. Check out Solomon’s moves… ABDC Season 21 needs to watch out – he’s gonna own the stage. Step Up 12-D, starring Solomon Kim. It’s coming.

Listen to him talk about the origin of his explosive clothing line and what it stands for today. This is a cool spotlight on one of our favorite apparel lines and a big part of our community’s growing music and arts culture. You can learn more about MyNinja! here.

PK x Dan aka Dan Rock Out with a “Bad Haircut”

I can’t say I was expecting this one but comedian PK has teamed up with afterschoolspecial’s Dan aka Dan for a silly little music video called “Bad Haircut”. Dan is known as the veteran rock-rapper but PK held his own behind the mic too; though I guess we already knew about that. The only problem now is the phrase “hair cut slut” is going to be stuck in my head for days. An entertaining if ridiculous watch.

Look at that line up. Great musicians performing great music for a great cause. Paul Dateh, Joseph Vincent, Quest Crew, comedian Paul PK Kim, Clara Chung, Kaba Modern & Jennifer Chung are all coming together to support the fight against hepatitis B. They will be performing at Rutgers University on September 28th but attendance of the Art Exhibit the day prior is mandatory for entrance to the concert. If it weren’t for the fact that Rutgers is 4 hours away and it’s the middle of a work week, I would totally be there… but for all of you in or around Jersey, don’t miss this show.
