Multicultural Jamz!

I believe the best way to understand the world of multiculturalism of today is done through art, film and music. Especially through artists like TALA who spoke with Buzzfeed about how the diverse cultures of her own family and growing up in London brought about a natural synergy between the West and Middle East into her music which was her identity.

Mixing and melding cultures can be a beautiful thing as each great aspect presents inspiring beauty and truth that connects everyone. It is funny to think as a child the thought of my western friends hearing the sounds Bollywood songs beating through the cracks of my families walls burdened me with sheer embarrassment. Yet, today artists like the inspiring MIA brings people from everywhere to dance happily to the sounds of Bollywood, traditional indian instruments, and other wonderful sounds of the world.

It is truly fantastic  what is going on in music today bringing the world to a lovelier, innovative, and beautiful place.
