Thank you for helping me become #1 on Amazon. I’ve been hovering in the top 10 for the past 6 months, but this morning I woke up to #1 on Amazon Hip Hop, ahead of Eminem, Lil Wayne and Drake.
It shows you the power of blogs and social media promotion. The music industry has changed, and blogs are the new gatekeepers. Thank you again so much for all of your support.
Whoever thought a Rap album about chakras and third eyes could be downloaded over 300,000 times?

Heres some brand new independent music from Sweden. If you like it we would be honored if you would like to share the video with your readers.
“Extrovert and brilliant soul funk ” from SHY
As a former child-actor and competitor in the Swedish version of American Idol it is no wonder that the artist called SHY is a brilliant performer. But it might come as a surprise to some that he is also a brilliant musician and song writer. After a number of well-recognized collaborations in his native Sweden he has now finished his first solo-album. Four of the songs from the album have recently been released on an EP and the first single is already on rotation on the most important radio station in Sweden, P3. I think you will understand why.
“Extrovert and brilliant soul funk ” stated the radioshow P3 Lab and made Shy “artist of the month” in October 2010. It is not the first time Sweden hears about Shy. He received much positive attention with his earlier musical collaborations, he has acted in some of the largest Swedish films as a child (maybe you remember the little kid in Ingmar Bergman´s “The Best Intensions”, directed by Bille August and winner of Best Picture Award at the Cannes film festival 1992?) Back in 2008 the jury of the Swedish version of American Idol was shocked to see SHY be voted out as number three from the final ten, they had him picked for top-two. But as a radio show stated earlier this month: it is when he gets to do his own thing he really shines.
In the single “Wu Girls” SHY cooperates with soul artist Hofstone. In the video you can see SHY and Hofstone trying to win the heart of a young lady by describing their styles, trademarks and various benefits. It is a video with a lot of humor but also with a great sense of style and attitude. A video of a kind that is rarely seen these days.
– I met Hofstone at My Space after I commented on some of his music, says SHY, aka Elias Ringquist. In this video we where inspired by the Batman-figures The Joker and the Penguin, a lot of colors and a cinematic style. I’m very happy with the outcome, and perhaps the greatest achievement was that we managed to get such a great video basically without money.
The single “Wu Girls” as well as the EP “4 CLUBS & HEARTS” are released on SHY´s own label Shymusic, and are available on ITunes etc
