Here is an old song I wrote a few years back. I recorded it under my alter ego Lenny Katfish. It is just a demo, but I listened to it again today and thought I would share.

Freedom |ˈfrēdəm| For District 9 Trailer

Kutty — Mon, 20 Jul 2009 00:29:44 +0000

A few weeks ago, I saw a trailer for the movie District 9. I LOVED IT. The imagery, the story line, all of it. So much so, I was inspired to write a song about it. I wrote the song and put it to some footage I found on the internet from the movie and put the “Freedom” trailer on Youtube and Facebook. It apparently struck a nerve with some folks and people have emailed me and left comments asking for more information about the song and where they could get it. I didn’t want to charge for it, so I spoke to the producer (Big Zik @bigzik) and he agreed to allow me to give it away on my site for free. So with that said, here is the trailer and a link to download the song. Enjoy. Feel free to leave feedback.

freedom |ˈfrēdəm|
noun

Verse 1

I’m a warrior it’s in my veins
That’s one part of me that they can not change/
No matter how much they try to wash my brain
You can look in my eyes and you see that pain/
And I won’t let go of it, I’m full of it
Cause I got a plan and I know what to do with it/
Its restore those days of glory
and resurrect those that came before me/
And fought till the end, but didn’t win
But where yours ends that where mine begins/
Your my light when it gets dark
And you’re my soul when I have no heart/
I’m like Malcolm and Martin mixed with a spartan
A little bit of Che and a military marksman/
You’re the reason that I dream
And when I’m at war, you’re why I scream/ (for)

Chorus

Freedom
We fighting for our
Freedom
Can’t live like this no more
They make us got to war
We fighting for our
Freedom
Can’t live without my
Freedom
Can’t live like this no more
You make us go to war
We fighting for our
Freedom
Freedom
Freedom
Freedom
Freedom
Freedom
Freedom
Freedom

Verse 2

F to the R to the E and E
Just a little bit is what we want for we/
Away from all your lies and your tyranny
All your nonsense and your blasphemy/
But your telling me that this the way it has to be
But I’ve seen the light, so how can that be/
I’ve seen much more right at the horizon
So I got my army and I mobilized them/
A journey into war is where we will go
And if it takes our life, deep inside we know/
That the truth is the truth and we’d rather die
Then just to sit back and to compromise/ (We want)

Chorus

Here is a song I wrote with the Jonas Brothers in mind. I never got a chance to get it to their folks, but I still really like the song. I still might use it to try and get on a TV show or in a film.

VENICE BLVD
Artist: KU
Produced By: Boss Beats

Lyrics

VERSE 1

She wore A..
Hot thing just past her thighs
All it took was one look to get hypnotized/
I’m really hoping that she’s into guys
And that shes not one of those Kate Perry types/
Even if she is, then thats alright
Cause maybe I can change her mind by the end of the night/
I step to her game cold as ice,
Let her know that I’m the guy that can change her life/
And I ain’t talking about the cars and chains
I can see she the type of that be into brains/
So I proceed to just keep it plain
While I try to down play the fortune and fame/
Hit her with a little bit of this charm
Cause I wanna make sure that this here goes on/
Then she smiled and my body got weak
And I knew right then it was all over for me/

Chorus

The flyest girl that I’ve ever seen
Out here just doing her thing
I met the girl of my dreams
On Venice Blvd

She almost blew me away
I still remember the day
Oh boy do I love L.A.
And Venice Blvd

She she she she she know she hot
She she she she she know she hot

Verse 2

I’m back but this girl is smokin
I’m fightin the whole deal but she got me open/
Truth is I think she the chosen,
Cause she so hot and my hearts explodin/
I’m frozen at a loss for words
Its like I’m a dance crew and we just got served/
But I gotta get my self together
And her know that her life yeah I know I can make it better/
And I ain’t talking about the cars and chains
I can see she the type of that be into brains/
So I proceed to just keep it plain
While I try to down play the fortune and fame/
Hit her with a little bit of this charm
Cause I wanna make sure that this here goes on/
Then she smiled and my body got weak
And I knew right then it was all over for me/

Chorus

The flyest girl that I’ve ever seen
Out here just doing her thing
I met the girl of my dreams
On Venice Blvd

She almost blew me away
I still remember the day
Oh boy do I love L.A.
And Venice Blvd

Bridge

She she she she she know she hot
She she she she she know she hot
She she she she she know she hot
She she she she she know she hot

Verse 3 (Sing)

This girl my world were one in the same
I can’t believe this is going this way
I dreamed of you almost everyday
I never knew that it would end up this way
So I got this in mind
I’m hoping you don’t mind
That maybe me and you could spend a little time

Chorus Out

So Fresh (Nobody Hot As Me) in the New Movie “Fighting”

Kutty — Wed, 08 Apr 2009 19:28:49 +0000

So I received an email last night about the one of my songs being a part of the new movie “Fighting” with Channing Tatum and Terrance Howard. I was told they were interested in using the song a few months back, but I never heard back about it. Well it turns out they are going to use it and they are also going to put it on the soundtrack. The soundtrack has a page on MySpace and the official movie page is also up. I have yet to see an advertisement for the movie, but it is not supposed to be released until April 24th. Maybe the marketing will pick up in the next few weeks. In the meantime, check out the trailer and make sure you go to the movies and check it out. I added the song below the trailer and you can buy it now on iTunes.
