Guilty Pleasure

What's the first thing that comes to your head when i say violin?
The most obvious would be classical music, orchestra and the likes of it.
What about when i say hip hop?
Snoop Dogg? Jay-z? African Americans? Bling blings? Babes in bikinis? Sports cars? Cold hard cash?! DRUGS?!!
Ok ok...maybe i went a little bit too far but you get the point.

If you like both of the above, then you'd probably gonna enjoy the 2 videos below.
The name's Dateh, Paul Dateh.
He's kinda like what you'd get if you mix Mike Shinoda & Vanessa Mae.

Hip Hop Rundown
I only know one song from the rundown below, which is Crazy by Gnarls Barkley at 4.16.
The actual song uses violins in the chorus.
As for the rest of the covers, I've never even heard of some of the artist before hahaha
But they're good and its interesting to see him play.


But of course, Paul isn't the first to pioneer this match made in musical heaven.
One of the more prominent ones to bring this into mainstream music is Fort Minor with their hit single, Believe Me. *See! I told you he reminds me of Mike Shinoda! Haha

Fort Minor - Believe Me


Other examples include Good Luck by Basement Jaxx featuring Lisa Kekaula and as i mentioned above, Crazy by Gnarls Barkley.

Transformers 3: Dark of the Moon


Also Megan Fox will be replaced by Rosie Huntington-Whiteley.
I guessed she finally pissed Micheal Bay or everyone in the crew enough to get replaced.
I think her hawtness level is comparable to Megan's.
Plus, she's a Victoria's Secret model. Rrrrr~
Micheal Bay's got good taste...hahaha
