Every human being has a creative side residing in him. Only a few realise, understand and bring it out. Music is one such form of art in which not everyone can rise and shine. Its should be in your DNA. I have been following this guy for sometime now and he is nothing less than Genius. Yes, I am talking about Shankar Tucker.
