David Choi tweeted today about his sophomore album, currently in the works. It’s gonna be called By My Side and will feature 12 tracks. He’s also going to repackage/redesign his debut Only You for re-release. I got to hear some of his 2nd album tracks at his show in the DC area last month and they sounded promising. Stay tuned and we’ll continue to bring you the latest!

New album is called…”BY MY SIDE”!!!!! 12 Tracks!!!! “Only You” (1st album) will be re-designed, so NO MORE plastic case! Limited left!!!!!

David Choi‘s album ‘Only You‘, is now available nationwide at participating Guitar Centers. This is huge distribution news for the youtube star, and although it’s been months since the release, it’s always good to find more ways to put music in the hands of your audience.

Check out David’s tweet announcement:

 You can now get a physical copy of my Album “ONLY YOU” @ ALL MAJOR GUITAR CENTERS in AMERICA!!!!!!

So if you’re a fan of David Choi, live near a GC, then go pick up a copy!

It’s decidedly lo-fi and no frill, but still fairly enjoyable. It’s no where near as polished as his collab with Wong Fu, but it’s a decent 3-4 minute distraction =). I wonder what’s next for David Choi?

David Choi & Wong Fu Productions have teamed up to bring you DC’s first ever music video. Sure David has had a TON of youtube videos, but never an official one. This MV was premiered this past weekend at an event and is now available to all.

The song is ‘Wont Even Start’ from David’s latest album, Only You.

All in all, it’s a clean, enjoyable video. Props to Lana McKissack, she did a commendable job acting.

PS, it was cool seeing all the WongFu merchandise. I think I just might have to order a tee now.

Tired & lazy from work. Oh well… here’s whats going on in the YPM world.

• Todd Angkasuwan has directed the MV to DJ Revolutions ‘Man or Machine’.
• It’s your last chance to win Kollaboration 9 ticket’s from AngryAsianMan.
• It looks like Se7en‘s valentines day debut has been postponed to some time in march.
• Catch an all english interview of SNSD‘s Tiffany & Jessica (side note: SNSD also caught the attention of Perez Hilton).
• Here’s how to win an autographed CD of David Choi’s Only You album from AllKPOP.

David Choi is your perfect example of an internet star. His youtube videos have skyrocketed his fanbase and popularity in the last couple of years allowing him to experience a large amount of exposure. Till recently he was known for his deadpan expression, dry humor and tongue in cheek wit, and most of all song covers and talented musicianship. Back in October he released this full length album entitled “Only You” so here’s the review. Better late than never.
