Enough said right ? But here is why...
A few weeks ago, I did Michael Franti's Jivan Mukti yoga dvd with Sharon Gannon & David Life. It is an excellent heart centered DVD which intersperses a jivan mukti flow yoga class with nice guitar instrumentals from Franti. The only thing that would have made it better would be some chanting. Not knowing anything about him other than his music, I would bet you he already has the music written for a kirtan album.
Here are my 4 reasons I want him to release the record.
1. The rhythms and beats would be "cross over" material so it would be good for the kirtan world and the development of this musical style.
2. Already the yoga world's favorite hip hop poet, this record would give us more yoga class playable tunes.
3. Yoga teachers tell me all the time they want upbeat music with an uplifting message. His record would accomplish that.
4. I know Snatam is a fan and I am sure many other kirtan artists are too. I am sure they would be more than happy to sing on the album giving them more exposure and lending him insight & credibility.

Fantastic idea!
I can’t wait!!! Love his music.
Agreed! Let’s get him to a chant retreat to get inspired – he could use some R&R to heal from his appendix surgery last year…
And certain producers in the genre would love to produce it.
