Today King of Kingnaldo who released their latest EP "Memorandum" tell us about their single "Hollywood Blow". Kingnaldo is a recording artist, musician, producer & engineer from Las Marias, Puerto Rico currently residing in Yorkville, Ga and Las Marias, Puerto Rico. His music is a mix of old and new rock. Here's is the story:

I spend about a little more than 2 years working as a damn extra in Hollywood movies in Atlanta, GA. What they called background artist, which is bull sh*t, cause you are just a damn extra, there is nothing artistic about it. So I'm the kind of person that likes to observe others behavior and study them. So by observing the behavior of the extras "their fantasy and mediocre hopes", the people that work in the productions "thinking they are the big sh*t, the superiors", and the f***ing famous Hollywood Elite stinky rich untalented MF� "thinking that they are some type of a God, or some type of a superior kind; you can't look at them, you can't touch them.. These people making a ton of money per day, while homeless hungry people from the city are surrounding the movie sets". And of course there are some exemptions but talking about the majority. All that kind of sh*t did blow me away, cause you don't believe it till you lived it, and honestly I never gave a sh*t, and most of the time didn't follow the rules on the sets, sometimes getting in trouble, cause they want you to behave like a kindergarten. So f*** that� Got tired, and never came back again, but I remember that in one of those sets I wrote a note, a title called Hollywood Blow�

Meanwhile I traveled to Los Angeles, CA. Hollywood area, to begin recording MEMORANDUM with Doug Grean, Producer that had worked with Scott Weiland, STP, Velvet Revolver, Slash, Crystal Method, among others� We were staying in Beverly Hills with Hollywood Elite neighbors, and later we stayed by Hollywood Blvd. very close from the Chinese theater� for about 3 weeks total. I remember reading a sticker that was on a drum in one of the studios that said "Hollywood Is Pretend". And that was it, cause that's how the mentality is, they are mentally ill, not just for those ignorant in Hollywood, but for the rest of the world. That's how powerful Hollywood has become, that a child from the states will have the same dreams, as a child from a third world country. They all want to be famous, they all want to be part of this Hollywood massive extreme media empire� "become a famous football player, or be the next Clint Eastwood, or the next super rock pop star"� Those are lies, the false hopes, the self destructive dream that the Hollywood Elite give to the world� And they are all mentally ill, and depressed. So by observing all that sh*t, for all that time, monster song Hollywood Blow was born. I remember writing the first verse "She is the inspiration, The exploitation of the World, She is the educator, The sensation of control, She is the machine, The creator Hollywood Blow"� And saying this is a monster� Then I remember, a song that was a jam by that time, that I had recorded in a rehearsal shack back in Puerto Rico the day before we opened for Latin Metal Band PUYA and ANKLA. And that was the one. I took it to my studio north of Atlanta, GA. and record it, structure it, and made it a song, we made a pre-production of the song. With that magical guitar riff, than later I invited Ramon Ortiz from Latin Metal Band PUYA to record a song in my album, he was living in L.A. at that time, he heard the songs and he picked Hollywood Blow� That was the last touch that song need it to become a super monster song in the studio. Is a song that could have one meaning, but honestly, your mind will take you to different situations with this car chase type of song. Thanks for reading and listening. Hope to see you around soon. \m/
