I’ll keep this brief: MKTO is amazing. I mean they are
really freaking amazing. I could honestly end this little rant right here but I guess i'll explain.
For one, I am a hardcore Disney Kid, and by Disney Kid I
mean a Kim Possible, That’s So Raven, Lizzy McGuire loving Disney Kid. That
being said, I loved the show ‘As The Bell Rings’ (And if you aren’t currently
singing the theme song in your head just cease to call yourself Disney Fan),
and that is where you may recognize the
‘TO’ of MKTO Tony Oller. So, to sum this up: Starred in a Disney Channel show ,
didn’t lose his mind afterward, also total Man Crush Monday material. Score one
for MKTO.
Next argument, if you have heard their latest single ‘Classic’,
you are probably already obsessing over them because that song is literally
perfection. And yes I am highly exaggerating and heavily bias, I’m a college-aged
fan girl…sue me. Bias (slightly) aside, this song is so unique and original.
When Malcom’s rap starts I literally feel like he is rapping to me. It
has a heavy Michael Jackson vibe to it; they even mention the King of Pop
himself. And the whole song is basically about wanting this classy woman like
the women from the good old days. Talk about bringing chivalry back. Tony Oller and
Malcom Kelly just work really, really, well together. Two points for
Gryffindor! (Sorry I got a little carried away there but you get the point).
Speaking of their music, their debut album doesn’t drop
until April in the US, but being as awesome as I am I have friends in high
places (and by that I mean in Australia where the album is already out) and got
the chance to preview the album and let’s just say…this is not an album you
want to miss out on. But this isn’t an album review, that’s a whole other rant
for another day.
I promised I’d keep this brief-ish. So I’ll end my little rant with this: MKTO is really freaking amazing. Go check them out, watch the ‘Classic’ music video. And go forth and obsess my friends.
