Outlandish - Closer Than Veins


Let me introduce you to one of my favorite albums of all time. It is "Outlandish - Closer than Veins". Lead by Isam Bachiri, they're based in Denmark and its too bad these guys cant hit mainstream in North America because they will definetley make it huge with their tunes. I can listen to their album from the first track to the last for days. Every track is moving and with meaningful lyrics.

My favorite tracks for you to listen to though is 1) Any Given Time, 2) Look into my Eyes, 3) Komi Gen, 4) Callin U, 5) I only ask of God . Tell me that their songs are not catchy because seriously they are great.

The Beard

So I've decided to keep the beard. After every weeks end id keep and then shave it off just because i didn't like the way it was growing out or i was either impatient to wait and let it grow. My parents werent too happy with me either after keeping a beard and letting it grow but then a few days later shaving it completely off. I have come to a conclusion that BEARDS are the way to go! seriously it takes a real man to grow one and it takes a lot of patience because you will never be satisfied at first but it takes some serious guts and courage. I know some men cant keep a beard because of their jobs or their professionalism at their jobs but i think if you're doing it for your faith then you should honestly fight to keep one. I now have respect for people who can grow the beard and a great bigger respect for hijabis also. It is serious courage.
