the greatest music ever made. ever.


So, I know some of you are in to that "hip hop" music. Well, I have a treat for you: Ella ja Aleksi.

They a promising new rap duo(first album "Lenni Lokinpoikanen" debuted in 2004) that sing about the topics I want to hear about. i.e. close surroundings, family, the importance of good parenting, and not bullying others. . . at least I think that's what they are saying. The thing is, they rap in Finnish. 

But, luckily for you and I, we'll have plenty of time to learn the language since they appear have such a long and promising career ahead of them. This destiny in music stardom is guaranteed for these two up-an-comers for two obvious reasons. First of all, they are musically astounding. Their voices are angelic and their beats equally divine. Plus, they are only growing in popularity. It seems they cannot go anywhere but up. Second, their combined age is a mere eight. That's right, they are each only four years old. That might make you raise a skeptical eyebrow, but god dammit, they already sing better than I could ever hope to. 

My personal favorite song is MC Koppakuoriainen. It is a ballad about a beetle who is also an MC – Talk about street cred. 

Anywho, check them out, spread the good news. Happy listening! Näkemiin!

Bonus points if you can figure out the game. Super bonus points if you can beat it.
