Cravin This by Umamiya

Cravin This by Umamiya

After their runaway hit “Hot Sour Spicy and Sweet“, the ladies of Umamiya are back with a new song/commercial “Cravin This”. Much like the way Meaty Cheesy Boy were pitchmen for Jack In The Box and It’s all about the Roosevelts for Taco Bell, Umamiya are now pitchwomen for Umami Burger. This might be the first girl group to accomplish this feat. Umamiya brings fresh new flavors to burgers. See their effects-filled video for their favorite burger joint. Who wants to get some burgers?

This is only the beginning for Umamiya. At channelAPA.com, we hear that a web series might be in the works. Stay tuned.

Get reacquainted with Cathedral Leung, mari.kris.am.i, Winnie Wu (a.k.a. WWII), Kitty Karaoke, and Kim Min Jung.

Tag Your Green with Ryan Higa x KevJumba

Tag Your Green with Ryan Higa x KevJumba

A few weeks ago GE sent Ryan Higa x KevJumba to San Francisco to find 3 global tap fountains. (It was like a mini Amazing Race. TeamJumba!!) These water refill stations are an eco-friendly way to replenish your bottle of water instead of having people continually buy bottled water. The Ryan Higa x KevJumba team search for the three fountains all over San Francisco with a little help from some local residents.

FYI – Global Tap Fountains are installed at Yerba Buena Gardens, Terminal 3 at SFO, and Marina Green. Additional stations are located at UCSF campuses, Crocker Amazon Park. Chain of Lakes Drive in Gold Gate Park, and California Academy of Sciences.

If we don’t start now, no one’s going to start later.

Wong Fu Productions also did some shorts for the Tag Your Green campaign: What the Flush?!, Lights out and Water Ain’t No Thang.

Lyrics to You’ll Feel Alive by Jesse Barrera

(verse 1)
I’ve been waiting near forever 
For this moment now 

Just to tell you 
Everything that I have thought about 

You and I just need to run 
Out of this town 


Don’t worry now 
Cause everyday is just a weekend 

I’ll pick you and I promise 
That we can pretend 

That we are rich and famous 
I know were young and shameless

We are just two kids 
With dreams in other places


I will take you on ride 
I promise you’ll feel alive 



(Chorus)
Just pack your things 
I’ve been waiting all this time 

To get away from everything 
That I’ve ever known

Just look up at the sky above 

You can fill my summer up with your love

You can take me out 
We would slam the doors

Then you’d ask me 
”What the hell have we been waiting for?” 



(verse 2)
I’ve been waiting near forever 
For a chance to say

I fall in love 
With every tiny little breath you take

It’s a simple love 
I cant get enough 
I just cant get enough 


Yeah i will take you on ride 
I promise you’ll feel alive

(chorus x2)

Lyrics to Better by Goh Nakamura

you could do better, you better do better, you better do better than him

kickin’ dents in my confidence
I’m under your veranda you’re on the fence

you could do better, you better do better, you better do better than him

I could do better, I better do better, I bet her bet her 25 cents

That there’s a rhythm of loss and return
and every single day I forget what I learned

You ask me where I think I’ll be 5 years from now
I’ll be wonderin’ how wonderin’ how wonderin’ how

how could I been better… better than this
how could I been better… how could I have better have said it?

and maybe maybe maybe maybe if I stop being a pussy
then you’ll stop being a biyatch

and maybe maybe maybe if I stuck my head outta my ass
I’d know which one is wiyatch

I wrote a letter I wrote it letter by letter, I let her into my place

and I think in circles, I think in big circles, I sit her and I watch the clock tick

and I dropped the bread crumbs, a circle of bread crumbs, but I don’t know where I begin.
