One Who?

One Republic...

These Colorado natives have been shaking up the Myspace world for some time and are now starting to advance into bigger and better things, such as a record deal with Interscope records, and mixing in with some of the best such as Timbaland, and Lil' Wayne.

They mix the electric buzz of the guitar with the ever so elegant piano while incorporating a hip hop vibe as well, giving them an almost light weight feeling to their music. Making a statement in the interview with KIIS FM that they want their music to have an emotional attachment as well as a good sing along feel. One Republics lyrics can be based on anyone in the world, taking the most everyday change and expressing it into a song with emotion behind it, making the music more on the level of the listener. Influenced by some great musicians, such as The Beatles, are giving this new band the edge they need to poke into the music industry and make a name for themselves.

I personally like this band and hope to see these guys do their thing and make it big in the upcoming years. I would hope that they can hold to their roots and keep the sound that they have, because it is different and that is what is gonna make or break them!

One Republic is one of my favorite band as well. I love how their express their emotion through the different mixutre of instruments with the lyrics. Most music these days are all too typical (i.e same type of tones, lyrics and instrument), but One Republic challeneged that stereotype and included varities. I hope that in the future they would able to make their way to the top of the music list.
