until someone dares us to rise up

Another good vision from Erika Ochoa. Blended with the sounds of Why?. 



Farrah Marie, what is this?
Have a very merry Christmas
And bury me deep in this mess
I'll be under where you walk

I'm just like everybody else is

V. Woolf

Khalil Fong | bow tie

Khalil Fong. Just two words: Khalil Fong. Plus I want that bow tie.



"How you write Chinese lyrics to match an R&B melody—it's tricky, and not too many lyricists can do it. Sometimes I just have to do it myself. It's not about skill—it's more about the background of culture and the sound of rhyme." Khalil Fong via WSJ. More here.
