Cameron Newland – “Ode to Justin”

Justin Ricaurte (@ricaurte) is a phenomenal person, and deserves much more than a minute-long track recorded in his honor, but I don’t have the time to produce an entire record even for my closest friends, so this is my humble attempt:

Lyrics:

♫ He’s reasonable, ideas unbelievable//
♫ Stares ‘em down Pamplona when he sees a bull//
♫ I can’t believe it though, ’cause when he sees a ho//
♫ He’s effortless like a key enters a keyhole//
♫ Electro, techno, much respect though//
♫ Cause nobody else is quite so flexible//
♫ He’s ill like swine flu from Mexico//
♫ Text-to-speech connects, hyper-textual//

I wrote this because the guy has amazing ideas, is courageous and confident in any situation, and is versatile in so many ways (he enjoys jazz, hip hop, and latin music, and is producing a hip hop track with yours truly). Pretty amazing for the young startup-CEO that he is.

So, who is volunteering to shoot the music video? : ) Haha
