Timed for Mother's Day, Seattle-based emcee Gowe (Gifted On West East) has released his official music video for "I Wonder," a personal song dedicated to his biological mother, whom he's never met. It's sort of a message in a bottle that he's hoping will one day reach the ears of his mother. Take a look:
Pretty powerful song. In Gowe's own words:
Ever since I discovered that I was adopted (at the age of 18), I've always wanted to write a song that captured my experience and gratitude toward my biological mother.Here's also video of Gowe performing "I Wonder" with Nina Seong at Kollaboration Seattle. Spread the word, pass it along. For more information on Gowe and his music, check out his Facebook page here and Bandcamp here.
After performing this song for the first time at Kollaboration Seattle I was able to partner with key individuals to turn the song into a music video.
My hope is that this will one day reach my biological mother so that I could meet her. In a way, I feel like this is symbolically my 'message in a bottle' that I am casting into the ocean. Any help in sharing the video with your friends & family would be amazing.
Thank you to everyone who was involved in the making of this video, God is good and I am truly blessed!
