Mission...
Some days I try to figure out where i'm heading...wish I knew...the walls close in closer everyday...the smoke gets clearer...nothing is as it seemed before...wise man told me the other day "some people put on a show, some people are the show" ...I guess when they say nice guys finish last, this is what they meant...maybe i'm loyal to a fault...maybe I should be more "humble"...maybe I should conform...maybe...

Wow!
Growing up, I always collected magazines. When I started collecting The Source magazine, the 1st thing I did was flip to the back to see who got the verse of the month. After years of this, XXL came along and knocked the source out the box. Now When I check XXL the 1st thing I do is check to see who has the verse of the month. Ha! This month when I flipped I saw my fucking face! Thats was a deep moment for me. I mean I knew it was coming, but DAMN! to see it was some other shit. When I first wrote "Black Folks" I thought no one would like it. I had a real interesting convo with 2 people that kinda put my mind in that mindframe to even write this song. I had the song sitting on my drive forever before I let anyone hear it. The reaction from people was overwhelming. I set out to make incredible music that cuts deep into your soul, whether it be shit talking or introspective, I aim to disrupt your soul. "Black Folks" is proving to be one of the best works of art I've ever created in my life! Oh, the video? World Premier on MTV any day now! Hi mom! =)

Can I Live?
I'm jealous of this dude! I wish I was outta space right now...away from here at least....I wonder what it's like out there? Wonder whats there to do...Random I know...I been writing like i'm out of my mind lately...Like real good raps...real good...My minds in space right now...I like it that way...New mixtape is damn near done...I took my time with this one...i dug deep to find that "voice" to say what was spose to be said...If I offend anybody with my words...fuck it...i've been real distant lately...just brainstorming... thinking...deciphering my DaVinci code...Went to a cool museum the other day and saw an exhibit that really put my mind to work..."Nine Lives" was the exhibit and it was awesome...found a new dope artist Charles Irvin...Google him, he's the truth! Also checked out a French exhibit with some Lautrec and Daumier pieces...Back when I was doing Art history in college, Lautrec was all my teacher was into, so it was dope to revisit some of his work...I'm getting back to drawing something serious lately, maybe i'll show some of my pieces...maybe not...Make sure you check out Torch's blog (www.beerandfashion.blogspot.com) He's getting busy with the pictures...Other than that, i'm just in my shell, chillin.
