My New Vegas Boy: Conor Maynord



Most people say this new upcoming UK singer, Conor Maynard is another Justin Beiber. But the "Mayniacs" and I beieve that he has something different. Not that we are saying he is better or Jutin is better. Its just something different with both of them. His new single "Vegas Girl" is something that speaks to the girls and it also brings out how his fans ecame his fans. I honestl fell inlove with his other single, "Drowning."

The beat and how he introduces the song. Its such a calm beat with loud lyrics. I actually listened to that first before anything else. His voice is something that speaks to the youth as something fun. Just something that people can agre on Something that we all can relate to with any situation.

He had over 68 million views of hs covers of popular artists such as: Drake, Alicia Keys, Usher, Rihanna and others. He proved hisseslf when he produced his own tracks. His album will be coming out in October. You should look out or him. He already is No. 10 on the Canadian charts.

Go listen to one of his songs and you tell me if he isnt a good.

A Child Hood Grown Up


As a kid I grew up on Nas music. From "I Can" to "One Mic." You probably thinking how the hell was you raised on this raw stuff. As a kid I loved music. Classic music. Real music.

I was probably 6 years old when I first really listened to his music. My father picked me up from school and he had "I Can" playing in the car. My father was asking me how was school but I was distracted by this music. I couldnt answer my father till he turned it down. But I said good quickly trying to end the convo so I can listen to the song. When the convo ended he turned it up. And as soon as I heard the little girl leading the chanting I envied her sooo much I wanted to be her!! But I just started singng along. I even learned how to play the song in the background by Beethoven on the piano. Ever since then I'm his biggest fan.

But I was getting some shoes for school when I came across his album. I was already hip to his siigle "Daughters." Well my father got me hip. We bought the album and we realised that this is as real as its gonna get. I originally thought that his music wouldnt get played on the radio because its so real and til this day I havent heard it on the radio. But it hasnt gone unrecognized.

Songs like "Accident Murderers" tie into the reality that know one wants to know about. The beat let alone speaks for itself. Lyrics such as "...these two different personalities had to collide niggas could not aim and innocent niggas died. you ask why, cause of a accident murderer, act like you killed him on purpose. liars brag you put in work, you aint mean to murk him your guns a virgin. streets are full of them read the bulletin. Accident murderer, your just an accident murderer" point out how ones "streets hottest youngin'" coulld be as soft as any other civilian.

This album is something that speaks to the youth. And I  think, personally that people should really take in to the fact that he knows what he is talkng about because he once was our age. He once did things that you claimed you've done before. He's not afraid to speak or tell his story through song. 

LETS GET THIS OUT THE WAY

This blog was originally for school, but than I realised that I am very attached this topic. So I decided to go the extra mile. This is basically a spotlight blog. It spotlights on artists that arent really getting their shine. Exposing the natural. Thats where the name comes from "As Genuine As It Gets." As you can tell by the title of this post im not to big on the introduction I just want to get down on the real. I want the subscribers, you to be able to commet have your own voice on the artists or you possibly an upcomig artist need a spotlight shout out. Im open for it just comment. Ok. So um lets get started on the REAL.
