Wake up! It's time

Most of the times we ask ourselves why countries like United States, Canada and Japan don’t share their wealth with poorer countries, such as some in Africa and South America. Even though South America has a rich reserve in oil and Africa in Diamonds, government of these regions are not distributing well their wealth among their population and that is why the habitants are suffering the consequences dying by hunger, dehydration and diseases. Apart than that, the rate of literacy is low in these zones.

I am very sure every country has their own issues but there are people dying and is because of the wrong management of public funds and they are not citizens of a first world country, richer nations should share a little of their wealth to create programmes that fights against illiteracy and hunger rather than just giving money to the governors and leaders of poorer nations because nowadays we know that what they do is spending the whole wealth for their own benefits the best example I can give right now is related to Venezuelan president Hugo Chavez Frias. In such a rich country because of the oil increasing the Gross Domestic Product every year, inflation, illiteracy and hunger is taking all over the country and he, and all his ministers, keeps blaming the external debt.

We know that, politically, is not right to take care of other countries issues, especially with all the problems with Economics that we’re living nowadays, but humanistic, there are plenty of people suffering while others are taking advantage of that. It is time to wake up and start looking for solutions instead of getting only interested about the money and our own benefits we live in the twenty-first century and we know how to solve these problems so why can’t we do something about it?

Traditional vs International beats

It has often been said that music is "the most primitive expression of the language", we have also heard that is "the language of the heart". What we can say is that us, as human beings, need music whether for entertainment or for expressing ourselves. Even as kids we started to sing first than talking. We have been so used to music that now is extremely difficult imagine a world without music.

Folkloric music represents the whole feelings of a Nation. It can be absolutely danceable, if we take Cuban Salsa and or Brazilian Bossa Nova as examples, or nostalgic and sentimental, taking Portuguese Fado as an example, what they want to express or their point of view  about one simple topic. We cannot say that folkloric music is getting less important nowadays because, even though International music sells more because all the Marketing effort artists and their managers invert in that product, traditional music is something that never is going to expire and it is often being used as an inspiration for plenty of international songs. It is hard to find a popular song, or the "summer hit", without hearing some African beats and drums or American acoustic guitar.

Artists like Madonna, Michael Jackson, Britney Spears, Lady Gaga, etc. use their songs to satisfy an exclusive Market segment named "fans" or supporters. Even if the song is not the best masterpiece, the whole effort marketing that product make the song sounds incredible and really catchy, in the end, you will end up buying the song or the whole album. We can say that music is the tool that all of us use to entertain ourselves could be to dance, to cry or just to feel the patriotism in our veins.
