So I've finally decided to do a full fledged album. I'm not even dipping into the mixtape scene. I feel like that's a waste of time right now. I've got a pretty good idea about what i want to say and how i want to deliver it throughout the whole CD. I would tell the idea that I have, but I kind of want to surprise everybody with the theme of the album. So on to the other stuff. I know I'm going to get my homeboy DJ D Souff to do all the artwork for me. This dude does his thing with graphics and mixtapes. Glad I got him on the team. I been saying I was gone get him to do something for me for a while now..and "It's Bout Time" for that. lol. Anyways, I've already got some of the songs for the album done already. I'm not going to say which ONES...but you can catch a sneak peak of some of them at Some of the songs are a "explicit" but most are not. Thats another thing I have been a little conscious about lately...so I'll be doing 2 albums actually. A clean album and an uncut album. They'll be pretty much the same, but they'll both have specific bonus tracks on each. I want the kids to be able to listen too ya know! Well, that's all for now. Everybody be blessed and take care of yourselves and each other!

Just another day at the job pt 2
So there may be some changes at the job. They are thinking about moving some folks to full time. I would love the money, but my schedule is great for having time to make music. The only way I would really be able to keep things going how they are going now as far as my off schedule is concerned, is if I start working during the day time. Then I would be able to handle my music business in the evening.
Well we'll see what happens.
Anyways, I hate when people from your past just pop right back up like things are good between y'all. I mean, I don't hold any grudges, but its certain types of drama that you always try to avoid. The drama that SHE has following her is not anything that I want to get involved in....correction...the drama SHE has followin her is not anything i WILL be getting involved in. Unneccessary and uncalled for.
I've been teaching my self piano for the past couple of weeks. I see progress within myself which is a GREAT thing. I decided to go right back to the beginning of things. Teaching myself to read music. The next thing I'm going to do is learn a little bit of music theory. Got to get my chord progressions down! Really though, I'm just trying to perfect my craft. The hard work is paying off now, but I will really see results once I keep moving forward.
Another thing I noticed. It's funny how some women talk about men who don't care if they are in a relationship or not. They may say they have a man, but the guy that approaches them doesn't care and still pursues. It's crazy at how many women don't care that a guy is in a relationship either. You can tell them you have a woman, and they continue pursuit, trying any and every which way to get you to fold into temptation. Not saying that all women do this though, but there are quite a few out there. Maybe this is one of the reasons that women cannot get along with each other. To my fellow men out there, DO NOT FOLD. The grass is not greener on the other side if you are already happy. You do not want to be with a woman who cannot respect your relationship. What makes you think she will respect the relationship that you try to start with her later on? Think about that first!
I just seen a funny commercial on CNN for manure.org. I can't even explain it. Y'all would have to see it. If I find a link, I'll post it ASAP.
Til next time.

So much on the mind
So today for some reason, i feel like I'm trying to "conform" to society too much...trying to fit in. It's got me depressed a bit. I don't want to fit into a "box". It takes away from what defines me. But I feel the devil putting things into my space that are tempting me right now. Some of them are easy to ward off and some aren't. I'm still working on it. Only thing I DON'T like about it is that it's affecting my music...affecting my creativity. So I'm taking a little break for a few days this weekend.
Another thing that just randomly came across my mind...you know how you have to sometimes cut people loose in order to progress yourself. Not that they are bad people, but you just can't have them around for a particular reason because it will hold you back. Well what happens when you realize that you are that somebody that someone close to you had to let go because you were holding THEM back. I know, me personally, in that situation I just proceed to evaluate myself and then find out where I need to improve (if i feel improvement is needed...sometimes you and that person are just not on the same path). But even us guys have emotions sometimes...especially when it's a woman who decides that you aren't what she needs in her life...after so long.
This isn't something that happened recently, but recently I've been really thinking on if there are any good women around me and what does it take to have one in my life. I realized that she was a very good woman, but there were circumstances that I felt I could not deal with and she felt there were things in her life she wanted to improve. Thinking about all this has popped her up in my mind..maybe to remind me that I don't need to backtrack and try to settle for anything and anyone just to say I have someone. But I digress...and to put it simply...I miss her and the things she used to do for me in all aspects of life...
With my music, I have a couple of options I would love to pursue, but I have to make sure that the people I deal with on a daily basis are those who I feel are really wanting to MAKE MUSIC...not become famous or just try to shine and get a spotlight. Of course I want to make money from what I do, but I also want to make GOOD music. Something that everyone can listen to...and i mean REALLY listen to. the actual MEANING OF MUSIC is being lost. I'm trying to find my own meaning and inspiration. I just want to make sure that I direct it in the right direction. I know I will...just need to pray about it and stay focused.
Anyways, those are just a few thoughts that came across my mind.
ya'll have a blessed day.

Check This Out!!!
whats good everybody! its a beatutiful morning!
I just wanted to come through and show you guys a site that i just joined last night. It's a spot where you can earn a little extra change without doing too much. Now i'm not sitting here telling you that you'll make MILLIONS (you can, but I can't guarantee it), but an extra $100 every day or two hasn't hurt anybody I don't think. I know I could surely use it to go towards my music.
Dr. Credit...Make Some Extra Money
I could explain this to you, but they know a lot better than I do. But basically you get change by setting up an add and then people come through and click on it. Of course you get MORE money if people sign up. It's a little bit of typing once you first sign up, but just follow the steps and you'll get through it.
Now i know ya'll are wondering... "how much does it cost?" Well for me, it costs $10 bucks to sign up. Thats because of the offer i chose. But don't let that deter you because you have to "use dough to make bread" right? Plus you'll get $100 on the first day so you'll get that money back PLUS some.
I'm just asking, before you say no, at least click on the site and read it. Then decide alright?
Thanks bunches!

Been a Minute..
Just droppin through to put a little blog up. I don't know if Blogspot will kick you off or not if you are inactive for too long, so I had to get at you guys. I hope things are going well for you all. Things are going well for me. I've decided to make a few changes in my life. I went to church this past Sunday for the first time in a while. I enjoyed seeing the people there...my church family. I decided to let God play more of a role in my life than I have allowed Him too....or maybe i should rephrase that.
I've decided to acknowledge Him more in my everyday life. I know that He has always been active and has Kept me safe, but I haven't always stayed on the path He has set for me. I think I need to find out what it is that I'm destined to be.
On another note, I believe that a loved one and I have come to terms with the relationship that we have to this date. I love you so much and you have done things for me that no other woman has done. I thank you because you have done a lot to turn me into the man that I am today and you have given me even more motivation to keep striving to become better and stronger. Maybe under different circumstances, we would be one...but i do not regret anything that we have been through or the the things that have happened between us. I love you so much. The ONLY reason i won't say your name is because you don't like me to put you on blast like that, so I won't. But you know this is about you.... Te Amo mi amor...always and forever...
Well i can't put too much in here. I'm at work. However, i will try to blog more often and keep folks updated on my journey to greatness...and feel free to share your journey to greatness with me as well.

Cafe 290 Show...Let's just say...
it was an experience. A good one for the most part...up until i got up to perform. Man i swear. Right before I got called up to do my song, something in my head said..."you're going to forget the words". Sure enough, I got to the last verse, and after 2 lines, the words just stopped coming out of my mouth. I choked horribly. For the most part, I think the crowd kind of liked the song. It was just that my delivery was PATHETIC. But thats part of the show too right? Well I have a little footage from it...hopefully the first verse got recorded..that was the best part of my show (all i can say about that is Ms. Crunk....clawdhammercy). But overall it was a good experience. If i decide to go back next season, then I'll make sure I'm prepared a little more. But I think I should just stay in my lane and continue working on my production skills. So I'll definitely keep working hard and doing what I do.
Til next time people...
