Pismo & Amanda Diva are on new Kenichiro Nishihara's project, "LIFE"

Kenichiro Nishihara - LIFE

Be sure to check out the new album by Kenichiro Nishihara entitled, "LIFE". The album hits the market Jan. 15 and features PISMO on a beautiful, melodic song called "Now I Know". Also, Amanda Diva on jazzy house influenced track callled, "Beautiful Things"
You don't wanna miss this one!

ジャズのエッセンスをポップスへと昇華させる独自の世界観をさらに押し広げ、磨きあげたゆるやかな続編「LIFE」が遂に完成。
優美で詩的なピアノ・クワイアー、この時代をを生き抜く力を込めたシンプルなメッセージ。
前作「Humming Jazz」を大きく超える内容・参加アーティスト陣はまさに圧巻。
スポットとして前作にも参加しているPismoと西原氏の最強タッグで送る「Now I Know」は、心温まるPismoの歌声がKenichiro Nishiharaの奏でるピアノトラックにバッチリハマッた極上の一曲。Amanda Divaを迎えた"Beautiful Things"！これがまた凄い！Kenichiro Nishiharaの新境地とも言える楽曲！！メジャーハウスとヒップホップの中間とも形容できる楽曲で、イントロ〜フックに掛けては一見メロディアス・ハウスといった趣ですがラップのヴァースで展開される鍵盤の旋律とAmanda Divaのラップとが高次元で融合した展開は圧巻の一言！さらに終盤へ向かうにつれ豪快で哀愁漂う極上のサックスもフィーチャーされ、凄まじいばかりのエネルギーがみなぎる必殺キラーチューン！！
アルバムを通して西原氏の表現力の凄さに圧倒されっぱなしの「LIFE」。お薦めです！

He spent 3 years in California schooling, painting, and experiencing the great splendor of “Mother” nature. The following year, he relocated himself to NYC. Since then, he has accomplished many achievements. Such as, winning the Art Battle competitions, appearing on MTV, working with Nike iD, EVISU, COACH, WholeFoods, EarthDay NY and so on.

Amanda Diva

Starting off as a young actress on Nickelodeon sitcom, “My Brother and Me” Diva is no stranger to the madness that is showbiz. Moving to New York in 1999 she was exposed and hooked to the hip-hop culture in a completely new way from her hometown Orlando, FL. Soon she was writing and performing on the spoken word poetry scene before being chosen to be on Russell Simmon’s Def Poetry Jam (’02 & ’05). When the director of Sirius Satellite Radio discovered her, she found herself unsuspectingly breaking into the music business as a radio personality on “Breakfast at Diva’s” (’03-’08). During that time she managed to obtained a Master’s in African American studies from Columbia University and also landed her dream job as the face of hip-hop on MTV2 interviewing close to every relevant hip-hop/R&B artist of the last 10 years including Jay-Z, Nas, Mariah Carey, Pharrell Williams, and even acting heavyweights like Tom Cruise and Jamie Fox. Diva’s love for music made a rise to be a recording artist herself releasing numerous EP’s, and she toured/worked with greats like Q-tip, The Roots, and Lupe Fiasco to name a few. She still continues to speak as a culture critic, a comedy commentator, and a music expert on VH1, a host & a creator of “Diva Speak TV”, a host of “Speaking Of…” on Music Choice, a host & a creator of “The Spark” on AOL’s BlackVoices.com, and a star of the reality web show “Technicolor Lover” on Dameon Dash’s CreativeControl. Diva has always expressed a commitment to creativity and originality not only in her music but also her visual arts. Her paintings are known for their vivid and whimsical abstract imagery and intriguing many celebrities including Alicia Keys and Swizz Beatz. With murals living from Grenada, Berlin, to New York, her hand painted bag line “Spectrum” having been featured on Karmaloop.com and BET’s “Rip the Runway”. Diva’s work has been recognized globally.

Concep

Concep is Brooklyn's answer to the renaissance ideal of the polymath artist. New Orleans-born Concep's journey in pursuit of intertwining his passion for visual arts, design, and dance led him to Brooklyn, where he has began to lay the foundation to his visionary empire. He gained large notoriety by winning MTV's "Art Battles" competition in 2007 and has since painted for artists in the music industry and painted at events in connection to Swizz Beatz, Rich Medina, and Deeply Madly Living Gallery, Complex Magazine, Girbaud, MTV's “Wild'n Out”, and Scion. His ill skills in street dance also allowed him to be involved in video productions for artist such as Mos Def, Little X, Eric Sermon, Timbaland, and Sa-Ra Creative Partners. His work was shot recently in his Crown Heights' studio in Brooklyn for MTV2's Independent Music Week and MTV Africa's U.S. As a designer, he has worked for urban brands such as Ecko Unlimited, Ruff Ryders, Pony, and he eventually landed a home at Marithé Francois Girbaud, a French brand specializing in premium denim and fashion graphics. His design work is intimately connected with his fine artistry, as you can find textile patterns that serve as inspiration for his design showing up in his paintings, or his paintings getting canvassed on street ware. His growing body of artworks is an unfolding story of the evolution of the self through the language of color. With a special talent for translating ideas, vision and energy, He has an ability to paint concepts, emotions and vibration that has an immediate effect on the observer (similar to the effect of music, which is much harder to achieve in painting). Encoding his key to the secret of life, the ever-present Pythagorean theorem, a2+b2=c2 (a(nthony)2=past, b(rown)2=present, c(oncep)2= future) is a reminder of the infinite possibilities that stretch between life and death, connecting dreams with the path of self-realization.

Riz22

A member of an outcast family from the heart of Ethiopia to modern day Roman America, Riz22 personifies the divinity of creationist expression absent of blueprint or planned conclusions. Alongside having an unlimited arsenal of painted works, there is an extended trailer of erotic comic illustration, political satires, and comedic commentaries of society's kaleidoscopic nature. Clients and patrons of his work include celebrities such as Notorious BIG’s wife, Faith Evans, Clay Aiken of American Idol, and Buttahman of MTV. Riz22 has painted at private events for BET, MTV, Warner Bros., and others. He is currently working on a project with Mike Jones.
