be a part of taiyo na/magentic north's new music video



Heard from singer/songwriter/emcee Taiyo Na, who tells me he and Magnetic North will be shooting a music video next weekend for their new song "I Got My," and they want you to be a part of it. The details:
On Sunday, January 18th, from 8pm to 11pm at the Bowery Poetry Club's Sulu Series, Magnetic North and I will be shooting our music video for our brand new song "I Got My." While we enter the New Year facing the worst economic crisis since the Depression, much of our concentration has been spent these days on what we are losing and what we don't have. While we fully acknowledge how dire these times are, this song is a hard-hitting anthem about what we do "got" that is worth more than money. One good example of that is community, and that's what we stress in this song and that's where you come in. We invite you to be a part of this video shoot and participate in a number of ways:

A) Be recorded lip-syncing your favorite lyric in the song (For lyrics: http://magnetichiphop.com/igotmy.html)

B) Be recorded with your own line of "I Got My..."

C) Be recorded just being in attendance for the performances or just hanging out!

The night will also include a special guest performance by the incomparable Ishle Yi Park! We've waived the cover fee just for this night because we really want you there.

You can check out "I Got My" here at http://www.myspace.com/magnetichiphop. Hope to see you there!

Peace & Love,

TN
Sounds like fun. You get Taiyo Na, Magnetic North, and none other than Ishle Yi Park. And you get to support some musicians who are all about the community. That's Sunday, January 18 at the Bowery Poetry Club's Sulu Series in New York. For more information about the evening, go here. And listen to "I Got My," on Magnetic North's MySpace page here.
