RubberBuzz || Akron Unleashed: 5 to 2

5 to 2

I'm not what one would call a baseball fan, but last night at the bar I actually got into the game a little bit. I was actually root, root, rooting for the home team and it was sort of nice. I even got excited when Ben Broussard hit the 3 run homer!

But do you know what really makes me excited and even makes me giggle? Ben Broussard's debut CD! Yes, the game winning Indian has his own self titled CD. If you want, you can even listen to a sample of some of his music. Just from looking at the pictures of him on his site, I thought he'd be a country singer, but no he's early John Mayer-ish.

As an added bonus, Ben is a talented "beat-boxer". Ben acquired this ability in the 3rd grade, while attempting to break into the free styling circle of his new classmates. This talent can be heard on the song "Deep" from his new cd of originals, and also on Coco Crisp's song from the "Oh Say Can You Sing?" album.

That's the one thing I didn't get to hear on the album snippet which almost makes me want to buy the album.
