Hello! In today's post I'll give you a few informations about British- Sri Lankan rapper, who's name is M.I.A. Mathangi Arulpragasam was born in 18 July 1975, in London. She is of Sri Lankan Tamil origin. When she was only 6 mouths old her parents moved to Jaffna, Sri Lankan city, where her brother was born.  She debuted as M.I.A in 2003, and her first Album was released in 2005. It is called Arular, and it charted in Norway, Sweden, Japan, Belgium and US. Her latest album, "AIM", was released on 9 September 2016, which is her fifth album overall. It consist of 12 songs (+5 songs in deluxe version), from which the most known ones are "Borders" and "Finally".   My opinion:  I think this is the first artist that I wrote about, and I'm not sure if I really like her. Her songs are very good in my opinion and they mostly talk about really important things, but the things that slightly puts me off is her voice, which isn't very nice to...

Hello! In today's post I will write about South Korean band. You may know them from one of my previous posts. In this one, I will more concentrate on themselves, not on one of their songs. First of all, there are four members of the group: Lisa (from Thailand), Rose (from New Zealand), Jisoo and Jennie (both from South Korea). They debuted in 2016 with their album "Square One", which consisted of their most known song, for example "Whistle" and "Boombayah". T hey are the  first K-pop artists to have had all their albums on the 1st place on the "Billboard's Top 100 Digital Albums".  For me, surprising information was, that there is no leader in the group, as they become a really close friends and every member has their own leadership. Also, they trained for about 4-6 years before they debut, which is quite a lot! And in my opinion, the trainings were needed, as now they are one of my favorite band! As a fun fact, I can say that their ...

Mona Haydar, as the title says, is a rapper and activist. She is Syrian who lives in America.  She was raised in Flint, Michigan, where she also graduated from the University. Then she moved to Damascus to study Arabic and Islamic spirituality.   Mona is also a poet. She started to write very early. After some time, her poetry was used as texts for her songs. Her first track- "Hijabi"- reached millions of views. Song talks about racism and how islamic people are treated. " What that hair look like?  Bet that hair look nice.  Don’t that make you sweat?  Don’t that feel too tight?" This is how the song begins. These are the most asked questions about hijab, a traditional veil worn by most of the muslim women. " All around the world l ove women every shading.  Be so liberated" These lyrics mean that we should all respect women and all people, without looking what they ate and what they believe in. In my opinion, this song has a very strong message and we al...

       "As if it's your last" is a new BlackPink's single, which had been released on 22nd June this year. After more than 4 months it already has 183mln views on YouTube! It's very up-tempo summery song, which can bring you to life very easily! After it was released, it got 1st places in 18 countries's charts: Argentina, Brunei, Cambodia, Costa Rica, Finland, Guatemala, Honduras, Hong Kong, Indonesia, Lithuania, Macau, Malaysia, Peru, Philippines, Singapore, Taiwan, Vietnam, Thailand! The song has also more than 317 000 comments and 2mln likes! It's an amazing score, as this song has only 4 months and it's not released by a famous American band! My opinion abut the song: Recently I fell in love with it! The Girls voices really match with each other and with the song! As I said earlier, it can really make you feel alive and make you think about the summer! The music video is also very nice and colorful, which makes the song even more South Korean! ...

Rayhon Ganiyeva She was born in 1978, in Uzbek capital city- Tashkent. Her music career started when she was 5 years old and her mum bought her a piano as a birthday present. In 1999 she created a duet called "Hayol", but it only existed for a year. Then she started her solo career. She is an active artist nowadays.  In my opinion, she is the best Uzbek artist, and one of the best Asian singer. I enjoy her every song, especially "Habibi", "Hamma Jam" and "Bor yoki yo'g", in which she is singing with Munisa Ryzaieva. Her voice is stunning, which makes her songs even more enjoyable. Also, she is a very nice person as I saw from her interviews, so for me she is an perfect artist, that is very underrated and should be known by people from all around the world.  That's all what I wanted to write in this post. I hope you will enjoy it!  Filip.
