Don’t Miss This Performance of ‘Home:Word’ Songs by Magnetic North, Taiyo Na, Vudoo Soul, Sam Kang, Alfa & More
These are honetly my favorite type of clips. Energetic, passionate, and infectious performances by artists that relish each other’s company as much as they do their art. Mag North & Taiyo have released the following clip of them on stage performing tracks from their Home:Word release. Vudoo, Sam Kang, and Alfa Garcia joined them, rounded out by the Home:Word House band – giving a great performance that I’m jealous for not being able to catch live back in April.

The folks behind the Home:Word album, Magnetic North & Taiyo Na have finally put out the music video to their song “I Got My” featuring Jin. But I doubt you’re ready for what you’re about to see as the crew has dug deep and reached out to all their contacts, friends, affiliates, etc to be a part of this MV. There are cameos from the Blue Scholars, Denizen Kane, Conchita Campos, DFD, Christina Chung, FM, Thomas Apartment, James Ha, Vienna Teng, DanAKADan, El Gambina, Cynthia Lin, Dawen, Bambu, DJ Phatrick, Kiwi, Heather Park, Vudoo, Lyrics, Manifest, Alfa, AJ Rafael, Jay Legaspi and a whole lot more. Those are just some of the musicians, there are a ton of activists, media folk, dancers, artists, students, educators, and more who also had a role. This is easily one of the dopest concepts put to music and unifying MV’s I’ve seen all year. Great release.

Lil Crazed x Megan Lee x Vudoo Soul x Jason Yang x Jason Chen Cover “Hey Soul Sister” [Free DL]
Hold on, it looks like we’re not done yet with the “Hey Soul Sister” covers. While I’m a little bit tired of this song this clip is an exception. We got Lil Crazed rapping, Megan Lee singing and strumming the guitar, Vudoo & Jason Chen also on vocals and Jason Yang doing his thing on violin over in Mississippi. It’s a fun little live performance and a good acoustic rendition overall. It’s also available as a free DL!
