Kenna's Make Sure They See My Face is the most underrated damn album of all-time. Every song on that monster is beastly except for like one ("Sun Red Sky Blue"). This is probably my favorite from the album.
this song.....sums up my mind state i wide awake...." I'm so anxious, I packed my head....In a paper bag to quell my nerves...Have I lost all my urgency...Or can I be part of history?...my mind tells my heart"I hide in my dreams...So I tell myself don't sleep, don't sleep."...awake til 3 am and go 2 university 10 am for a future i don't want...i just want 20 k to start my business fml
yep...I 100% agree... cept for folks over 40... or people who spent ones youth listening to the Cure, Depeche Mode, Yaz, After The Fire, Jellyfish,They Might Be Giants , Modern English, UB40, Snow, etc... Kenna sound good even great...at the same time like all these bands had offspring (ooh there's another good one the Offspring, Pennywise) so it's nothing different...no real new sound.
The guy that wrote Blink... Malcom Gladwell was saying a 'new' sound......It's good... and I like it...for me "Brilliant" or Fucking Brilliant ... is like Danny Elfman from Oingo Boingo... or even Yello ... talk about cutting edge...not that I like all of Yello's stuff... but 20 years ago they were doing something no one else had thought of.... it's all good... I just have a hard time with the Super Hype that Kenna should rule the world... ;-)
This song is the best for me cause I like the moon. I would hope they let me in if I called lol. But to be real he said "Don't sleep to save your engery" Kenna. Think about it one needs to sleep to have engery!! Hot line!!

Honestly, Pharrell should stop slacking off. Chad and Kenna made good work with this album.

Yeah, but listen to underground rap. Kenna and the underground both have messages in their music. Check out
K-os -The love song and
Grip Grand- A penny
for starters
kamikazemelonman 2 years ago 2
I looked those up and liked them both. Any other reccomendations?
megatione 2 years ago 2
Pretty much anything by grip grand, 93 till infinity by souls of mischief, ready or not by the fugees. Check em.

I sort of agree. Maybe because I'm almost 40. And that I've seen almost everyone you listed live at least once. Great music all the same.
