Brother-Sister Duo Deliver The Single Greatest Subway Performance Of All Time

I’ve watched this video no fewer than fifty times and each time it gets better. The rhythm, the voice, the song selection- it’s fantastic. These kids must clean up. I wish they kept the cameras rolling so we could see how much they made. Child beggars typically don’t need to have talent to do well so I’m sure they made a decent buck considering what they do.  I’d have emptied my wallet if they were in my car. Even if they sucked, the fact they didn’t sing The Circle Of Life deserves some sort of monetary reward. You can even see people in the background trying not to smile.  There hasn’t been this much talent on public transportation since Mac and Cheese man. His sister’s not half bad either when she’s not counting her money.

It’s like the New York City version of the Susan Boyle performance. Except instead of an old white lady with bad breath, it’s young black kids on a city bus. I’m sure everyone was rolling their eyes bracing themselves for the “my basketball team is selling candy bars” act too. Instead they got an Usher/Drake/Temptations/That Girl Is Poison remix for the ages. Don’t judge a book by its cover, people. I just hope they use the money to buy books and not a gram of weed from Washington Square Park. I have faith.

Ps: The song selection is still blowing my mind.

Usher – Nice and Slow 

Drake – Hotline Bling

The Temptations- My Girl  

Bell Biv Devoe – Poison
