Smooth In Slovakia: Tomi & Dara Rolins

Feeling like you need some slick Europop meets R&B, Slovakian-style today? Tomi and Dara Rolins are here for you. The pair just released this nice-looking clip for "Nebo Peklo Raj," and it's quite well done. Tomi is sort of known in Japan, of all places, and he used to (or maybe still does) live in Chicago, even though he's Slovakian. Dara is a well-known singer in the Czech Republic and Slovakia (currently dating huge rapper Rytmus). Together, they have a bit of chemistry, as you'll see in the clip below. I've written about Tomi before and he's an interesting talent (I called him the Slovakian R.Kelly last year). Check out his and Dara's "Nebo Peklo Raj" below.

This is a great song and it looks like they may have even shot the video in LA?

btw: both are slovak, no need to categorize it under czech republic as well. i dont quite care, but, you know.
and it was shot in Bratislava. the Kempinski hotel he leaves from is Kempinski RIver Park, which is in Bratislava and there are other landmarks, so you can tell it was shot there :) Quite beautiful, isnt it? :)

ok I'll remove the Czech tag, even though Dara's own website has a ".cz" domain suffix.

And thanks for the info where it was shot. Yes it does look beautiful! Looks very similar to Hollywood Hills.

And officially she is of Czech nationality as well, so.. but she's still considered to be "Slovak" ... although many people diss her because she is slowly forgetting to speak Slovak properly ;) and her daughter only speaks Czech :P
