Facebook logo credits: Facebook(Toronto, Canada September 24th 2010) Musical Artists Ruby & Chikaadee officially meet the world today in a week they have described as "The Facebook Week."

They are the only known boyfriend/girlfriend East Indian/West Indian musical duo in the world. A hardworking pair of musicians with several jingles, club bangers, raps and pop hits, their songs and videos go almost immediately viral once they are released online.
The Canadian Privacy Commissioner Jennifer Stoddart released a statement to the media this week about changes in response to an investigation last year that Facebook now meets the expectations of Canadian privacy law, but then a new drama has hit the privacy office with regards to that "like" button on external sites! Ruby & Chikaadee wrote a FACEBOOK ANTHEM song with an upcoming intriguing video to go with it and there's nothing to "DISLIKE" about their musical genius. In fact, they want fans to hit the "LIKE" button all day and night. Ruby & Chikaadee's FACEBOOK ANTHEM describes their Facebook experience and several features they love, something users can relate with. A smooth song with lyrics attached for the fan sing along and it is set in the Facebook iconic blue background.
Some photos of the upcoming video "My Facebook" shot in a dental office, shoe store, transit bus and more locations in Toronto, Canada.As Facebook crashed for several hours on Thursday September 23rd 2010, several people "googled" the word "Facebook" and many bumped into their FACEBOOK ANTHEM song online. They gave Facebook users something to listen to during the down time. Teens cried, office workers were forced to go back to their "regular work," commuters freaked out on their mobile phones then all the music lovers tuned in to hear Ruby & Chikaadee's FACEBOOK ANTHEM on youtube. The hits are now close to 20,000. The song was originally posted in July 2010 and a video was shot in Toronto with very interesting things and areas of our daily lives Facebook has impacted. The fun video will be released by end of October, the same month when the Facebook movie "The Social Network " premieres.

"Our song should be playing in the lobby as overhead music at Facebook's Palo Alto headquarters in California today" chuckled Chikaadee.

Kisho Kumar (Chikaadee) and Ruby Ramkaran (Ruby Queen) were united by a common passion: Music. When they finally decided to meet in person and collaborate after meeting on FACEBOOK, it was love at first sight. Chikaadee, who had been writing music since he was 16, conceived the dream of The Nation and World Wide Hustlers at an early stage in his career. When he met Ruby in April of 2008 and discovered her as a talent, he dubbed her The Nation’s Queen and they have been partners ever since. In Chikaadee’s own words “We complement each other so well, it’s a match made in heaven. It was just meant to be.”
