If you've never listened to Hawaiian music before, this is a showcase of the variety waiting for you. Hawaiian 101 features Hawaiian artists, some old songs, some new, some Hawaiian, some from other Pacific islands, some from the mainland. You can kill that box on your screen, because I'll tell you the names of the artists.

Warning: this is not a No-Skank zone. I've chosen to err on the side of creativity; along with long-beloved singers and classic Polynesian songs, I've included some of the newer rap and reggae, just because many of these kids are so talented. It's all there (or at least a couple hundred songs of it)!

So, come hear what you've been missing. Turn it up!
