Now down to the point!
Shing02 - Grace
First, let's start off by saying Shing02 is Abstract, I mean VERY abstract.
He uses a photo, a scene and let's your mind tell the story, so this review may seem very Biased because I will be incorporating my thoughts on what I perceived.
First off, it starts with the Camera gazing into the Ocean, and the Grey, Gloomy sky to a Guitar Rift.
Now let's look at what we can gain from these three points.
The Ocean - Long, Unlimited, Far, Boundaries, Deep.
The Grey Sky - Sadness, Feeling Grey comparing oneself to
the sky. Questions (I.E.) "What is out there?"
Not only are we now bringing yourself into the Video we are now incorporating ourselves our thoughts, already so quickly inside the video!
It then goes off into the sky more, the Neighborhood. Also big points that should be brought up, represents where one is, where one is from, and this is VERY important to music, it is our culture it is what inspired us it is not only a symbol, but also ourselves!
And when all of this is happens our brain is Calculating so many images, so many memories so that we can create a silhouette of "What the music is trying to say".
It then goes off on Shing02 Rapping sharing his Logic, his point of view in every song and tries to inspire and get his message through quick but meaningful.
You can also see that this video has alot of different people inside of it, sharing different Point of view, different backgrounds, different tastes in music. But we also see one BIG point, and the point is that the Equilibrium that music brings us, that no matter where we from, no matter who we are, Music is what unites us, and that is truly what makes this Piece beautiful.
