[Music Video] Miguel - "Candles In The Sun"
Sometimes it's easy to get caught up in our own worlds and we forget that some of our brothers and sisters need a helping hand.
Miguel addresses the human condition in the visuals to Kaleidoscope Dream's closing track "Candles In The Sun:"
"It's so easy to ignore what's right in front of us sometimes. I wanted to create a song and visual that addressed my everyday concerns of life as I know it in the world that we live in."

I showcased ForteBowie's soon to be smash "Gucci Mane" a few weeks ago, and now you have a chance to learn more about the ATLien by downloading his debut project Vice Haus. The free album is entirely produced, written and performed by ForteBowie.

Even if you're not a fan of the upcoming Air Jordan 28's, "Check The Sign" is still well worth the listen.
