Musiq SoulChild Delivers Reality Music



Lyrics play a vital role in the success and longevity of music. A successful songwriter delivers timeless music. I know timeless music when I can clearly remember word for word songs more than a decade old. I remember back in the 90s still in high school when Musiq SoulChild came onto the mainstream music scene. It was the introduction of Neo Soul to my generation. I'll never forget his song, LOVE. The lyrics were so powerful, meaningful and most importantly REAL.

Musiq is a timeless artist who composes his own lyrics. His lyrics offers a glimpse into his personality. My favorite is 'Who Knows' which is a very thought provoking song. One of the verses is as follows -
"know that love is not just something to do
It’s the moment that transcends
Our physical into a more spiritual level of understanding"
from 'Who Knows' written by Musiq SoulChild
Who knows what these lyrics mean, do you? Well leave me a comment on what you think he is trying to say and keep posted for my response to these lyrics.
Musiq SoulChild writes REALITY.

Reality Shows- In or Out?



In this everchanging world people have opened their minds to other alternatives, REALITY. People are more open to what was once shunned. It seems that circumstances and pressing times have caused many to expose themselves more. Many have thrown caution to the wind so to speak. In our new age generation the media has capitalized on our openess by introducing reality shows.

I really enjoy viewing people personal lives and experience because I am a real person so to speak. Many people have different views on reality shows and people exposing their personal lives.

Do you think reality shows are in or out?
