Poem/Rap that was viral on Youtube a year or two ago

Can anyone point me to the viral Youtube video that was a black guy standing up on a stage in front of an audience, emotionally reciting a rap/poem he wrote. I think the topic was about his relationship with his father. It was amazing. Ikiwi (talk) 03:29, 30 October 2010 (UTC) when im gone - eminem?

Finding more music

Now I want to find some music that is calm and futuristic. Minimal lyrics, background music is fine.

Also, has anyone flown through Korean Air recently? There is a particular piece of Japanese music in the airline's built-in music section that I liked, but I wasn't able to get the name of it. May I get a list of the Japanese songs that the airline offers in its built-in music section? If you don't know what I'm talking about, there is a set of buttons with headphone jacks on the armrest that is kind of like a radio channel. 64.75.158.196 (talk) 06:39, 30 October 2010 (UTC)

Calm music with minimal lyrics... I know nothing of Japanese music that you speak of, but I can suggest a few calm songs that is perhaps more known in western countries. I can't guarantee that you will find all of them futuristic, but they are calm and very pleasant to the ears. Movie-soundtracks and works from composers is actually a good place to look I think. A few suggestions; The Gladiator soundtrack by Hans Zimmer/Lisa Gerrard, or "The Kingdom" by Danny Elfman. If you like those there are many other calm soundtracks from movies which will interest you I think. Maybe Vangelis?

"The innocence of sleep" with the band Placebo is a personal favourite of mine which I highly recommend.

Enya is also an option, and if you are from a western country you have probably heard of her and her new-age music. You can search her up here on wikipedia to learn more should it interest you. Another band which I think is quite similar but which i don't know very well is "Era". It's probably less calm I think than Enya's music, but if you're into that kind of music you might find it quite interesting and quite relaxing.

As for the Japanese music, Japanese or asian acupuncturists often play really calm and relaxing music to help their patients relax. I have been to several and have found the music very beautiful and relaxing. If you really liked it and you're hell-bent on learning more it might be a place you want to look :) just a thought...

You're looking for Ambient music, which started with Brian Eno. For a Japanese flavour, look at Kitaro. --TammyMoet (talk) 17:58, 30 October 2010 (UTC)

No, no, the Japanese music is something separate. I am looking for two kinds of music: the calm futuristic music is one kind, and the list of Japanese music on Korean Air is another. 64.75.158.194 (talk) 09:50, 31 October 2010 (UTC)

Korean Air's website unfortunately doesn't list all of it's entertainment options as many airlines do but it does state that information on all Music/Films etc in the programming is in it's in-flight magazine Beyond. I don't suppose it's too much to envisage that you've kept a copy? Nanonic (talk) 22:06, 31 October 2010 (UTC)

Unfortunately no, I don't! If I did, I wouldn't be asking that question, now would I? =) 64.75.158.196 (talk) 10:14, 3 November 2010 (UTC)
