Once again this is another long overdue entry but what can i say? this lil girl's been keeping crazy busy (check my other blog for that update!!!) ANYYYYWAYYY

so the sound on the streets is...

 

JUSTIN YOUNG. Those of you in Asia who recently caught Colbie Caillat's showcases in Singapore or Malaysia, etc., will recognize him as a familiar face- he plays guitar for her and sings back up right now... HOWEVER many of you dont know that he has his own thing goin on too! Yup that's right Mr Justin Young has a whole other solo project and the album that he recently released isn't his first- nope nope he's been singing, songwriting, and playing the guitar for a while now... in fact i first heard his stuff way back when i was in high school ;) been loving his vibe ever since SO now i'm passing it on to you :)

check it out and lemme know what you think

 

oh and btw, i got the chance to jam with him and mike (colbie's drummer) at a small club in singapore- they did their thing on the instruments and i was on the ones & twos and let me just say... Justin Young sure can break it down on the hip hop jams... he did this twist of a few classic hiphop tracks (like seed 2.0 by the Roots) but with a laid back lovers rock reggae acoustic type vibe that was good enough to eat off a plate with your fingers. no joke.

 

now go go go ;) give his stuff a listen
