Fan Created Viral Video for Musiq Soulchild's "SoBeautiful"! "A Tribute to Michelle and Barack Obama"
MUSIQ SOULCHILD, raised (mostly) in PHILADELPHIA, PA., a soulstar who has developed a sound uniquely his own, by fusing together the essence of "Soul Music" with "Funk" rules and "Hip Hop" swagger, all while making his mark on the charts with his first hit single entitled "JUST FRIENDS" (SUNNY)" from his platinum DEF SOUL release "AIJUSWANASEING" (I just want to sing). And made us ponder the meaning of true affection with his second hit simply entitled "LOVE"
Following up with his sophomore album "JUSLISEN," also platinum, debuting at number 1 on the BILLBOARD TOP 200 CHARTS there was no doubt that this wasn't just another here today, gone tomorrow artist. Instead, he merely made plans to be around for the long haul. And with hit songs like "HALFCRAZY" and "DONTCHANGE" he was well on his way, and with a good start.
Staying in the game with his third release "SOULSTAR" featuring hit tunes such as "FORTHENIGHT" and "WHOKNOWS" its clear that "MUSIQ" is not only an artist of substance, but also consistency. He's been nominated by many respected institutions of the music industry including MTV, THE AMERICAN MUSIC AWARDS, NAACP, and with three albums to date has had 4 consectutive GRAMMY nominations! MUSIQ has received awards from BILLBOARD, BET, ASCAP, BMI and SOUL TRAIN and has been featured on TV & print ads along with having his music featured with major corporations such as McDONALDS, NIKE, COCA COLA, LEVIS and THE GAP. He's toured the country extensively, and is also internationally renowned for not just bringing great music, but also a great show.
Now, in his new home as an ATLANTIC RECORDS recording artist, his fourth album "LUVANMUSIQ" debut on the Billboard Top 200 Charts at 1! In 2007 "LUVANMUSIQ" has sold over 500,000 copies going GOLD and has been nominated for 3 Grammy's! The biggest single off of the album "TEACHME" was number one for 15 weeks on Billboards Urban A.C Chart.
While making plans to venture into and break new creative ground, who knows, might not be too long before you see this soulstar in a theatre near you.
Its pretty funny when you can buy a couple boxes of girlscout cookies for $3 and then later that night sell them to drunk patrons for $5 a box. We'll get in the studio faster than I thought we would! -Brandon
Hello musiq i dont mean to be personal like I no you I just admire the hell out of you Like the way you feel about your favorite artist I hope while I'm breathing that I get the opurtunity to work with you and your fam.god bless philly fan resee
Just dropping by to tell you how disappointed I was when I traveled all the way to Raleigh, NC to see you and you did not show for the Soul Music Festival in August. The word was you showed up, but didn't perform because you didn't have all of your equipment. I have been a fan of yours for a long time and I don't want to believe you came all that way and didn't at least acknowledge the people who have supported you. There were others there that performed, however some came just to see you. I know this because I am one of them. I made the best of it, though it was a hugh disappointment.
Out of the shadows of the night the PHOENIX rises from the ashes of the past to stretch his wings and glide across vast lands no soul has ever seen or known
Just letting you know that I was here :)
Leaving some love on your page
Hope all is well and that your day is full of positive blessings.
Stay blessed my friend
One perfect love
