I wholeheartedly support independent artists – the ones who work their tails off, having amazing talent, and are wonderful people. One of my favorites is a 19-year-old Filipino-American from California named AJ Rafael. You may have heard of him. He’s one of the most subscribed-to musicians on all of YouTube, and if you’ve heard his music and his voice, you’d know why. He’s currently cultivating his musical ability at the Berklee College of Music and shares new music, covers, news, and experiences with his fans on a very regular basis. (He’s very in touch with his fan base…)
I could (and would) write more about him*, but that would be quite extraneous and would detract from my original purpose: to promote his song “MidKnight.” Why am I promoting it? The reason is quite simple – AJ wrote the song based on the Batman series and is using all he has to spread the word about it in the hopes that it will be used in the third “new” Batman movie.
I can tell you right now, folks, that this needs to happen. Not only will AJ gain more recognition for his spectacular musicianship, but the movie will acquire an incredible and heartfelt track that will only be an asset to the film. I know it’s a huge assumption, but should the song fall into the right hands, the hard work will already be done.
Please watch and listen to this video, and please support AJ. He truly deserves everything he has gained so far, and also so much more.
