Um. Hello.

It's almost 7:00 EST and in one hour CNN will broadcast "CNN Heroes, an ALL-STAR Tribute" for the 4,897th time this weekend.

I waited until this moment to tell you good people that in the credits following the program you can see the words "Original Compositions--Kaki King" or something like that. But only if you are a really awesome speed reader.

Myself and Yuval Semo did in fact score the music for the vignettes for Viola Vaughn, Anne Mahlum, Yohannes Gebregeorgis, and Maria Ruiz. Yuval was incredibly helpful in creating some of the music because Tel Aviv is much much closer to Ethopia than Atlanta, GA. Not sure yet where we stand on Senegal, though. Watch and you will understand.

I even got to go sit in the Kodak Theater in Los Angeles, Hollywood, and see the whole thing go down live.

In the words of Hodgeman:

"THAT IS ALL."


But there will be much more to come very soon.

love,
kaki

ps--I wasn't lying in that other blog post.

Stay True.

 
It's good to know that you take your role in life seriously and work hard at everything you can do. Whether or not someone likes your music--they can't deny that you are talented in more than just a musical aspect.

Well, I guess now I'll have to scroll through everything on the guide on CNN, to find out when it's on again. May peace follow you where ever you go!

I was out of town last weekend and missed it- damn.
Perhaps I can find it on YouTube?
Please continue to rule, Kaki

This is what I get for assiduously avoiding all-star tributes. Woe is me. (Woed am I?) In fairness to myself, I did watch an all-star tribute to villains, but that was on Fox News. Oh, no I didn't!

Not that I'm complaining... I can't wait for you to come to Belgium, bu why the speedy return after actually not so long ? The tour was so successful that you decided to come with the band and try topless in europe LOL. Whatever it will be, I'll be there for a few gigs Kaki supporting you as you deserve it!..Cheers..Benny

I figured you as more of a Bill Moyers' Journal contributor, myself...But I guess your uncle Larry at CNN helped (Larry King)...(Phase One to winning Kaki's heart: great sense of humor...Phase Two: convince her to be attracted to men.)
