Malcolm Gladwell: Beatles...Prodigies or Not?

I came across this video when i was checking out a blog i like Fresh Creation. I have read Malcolm Gladwell's Book "Outliers: The Story of Sucess". He gives a fresh perspective on the way our culture works. In this video the best-selling author uses The Beatles as an example to question the existence of genuine musical prodigies. He attributes a large measure of the band's success to the experience they gained while playing as the house band for a strip club in Hamburg, Germany. Weather you think they are prodigies or not, they are no doubt one of the greatest bands of all time.

*Mp3: The Beatles - Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band (Streetlab Remix)

Sharam Ft Kid Cudi - "She Came Along" Video

Who knew you could sample old country music like Patsy Cline's song "Strange" and make it sound relevant. She passed away over 45 years ago and Sharam and Cudi resurrect her from the dead. I have been listening to this song for a couple months and it definitely grows on you.

Mixtape Vol. 7

"Things are because we see them, and what we see,

and how we see it, depends on the arts that have influenced us.

One does not see anything until one sees its beauty."
