Michael Vick

LET IT GO PEOPLE... Listen... I get that what he did was stupid and wrong, but if you dumb fucks are willing to cry at Wacko Jacko Jackson's funeral and ride Kobe's nuts after a ring it's only fair that you let Mr. Vick throw a football around again.... and don't even get me started on R. Kelly.... Crazy to me how a dog fighter gets more negative attention in the media than RAPISTS and CHILD MOLESTERS... It's not fair...

stop bitching about AUTOTUNE bitches...

For some reason people are under the impression that Autotune has the capability to magically transform a shitty artist into a super star.. WRONG!!! Say what you want, but Autotune doesn't write, produce or perform records. The software does not sing for you. It is simply an effect that, when used properly, can add dimension to a performance similar to the usage of reverb, phase, chorus and distortion.... My point is:

  1. DON'T BITCH ABOUT AUTOTUNE JUST BECAUSE GRANDPA JAY-Z MADE YOU THINK THAT YOU SHOULD...
  2. YOU ARE NOT A BETTER ARTIST JUST BECAUSE YOU REFUSE TO USE AUTOTUNE..
  3. NOTHING YOU RECORD IS PURE, SO DON'T FRONT MR. COMPED VERSES ;-)
  4. I STILL LOVE JAY
  5. I STILL LOVE AUTOTUNE IN THE HANDS OF THE RIGHT CRAFTSMAN.

man... real SHIT!


Just saw this over at 2dopeboyz... MAAANNNN... I remember going to a Lupe Fiasco show once with beat CD's.. throwing em on stage and shit... Needless to say, most of the beats were whack and my "big break" never came... There were a couple of gems in there though... like "80's Back" and "Prince With a Thousand".... Guess it all worked out! LOL... Still a mission of mine to work with Lupe before he retires though... You're sleepin on me Lu, forreal!!!

So, I'm learning....


The music industry is fast. In other words, things change.... What seems like a good move today might seem like too much of a risk tomorrow. When it comes to business the only guarantee is a great product and a great product takes an exceptional amount of work, both inside and outside of the studio. If you are an aspiring artist you cannot expect to be successful by simply recording songs or making beats. You MUST educate yourself about the business and you MUST do everything in your power to master your artistic craft. In order to do this you should expect to spend NO LESS THAN 40 HOURS PER WEEK on music and music related tasks. Network, study, rehearse, record, reference, write, create, research, perform.... Take a minute and reflect about how you've been spending your time... If you are completely satisfied then you are on the fast track for FAILURE. You can always do more, you can always do better and you can always work harder... NEVER ALLOW YOURSELF SATISFACTION. This is not to say that you shouldn't enjoy your success, but instead that you should ensure further success and enjoyment by constantly aiming higher. Very few understand this mentality and as a result very few are successful in this industry. Self motivation is KEY. Don't depend on a label or deal... Wake yourself up and put yourself to work. Minimize your distractions, whether it's weed, video games, women or friends. Every move you make should be a move that makes you a better artist and a better business person. Real talk... now to live my own advice.... GET EM!

a good cookie...

I had the most yowza choco chip cookie this morning (at a coffee shop)... Teamed that lil cookie up with an americano (no cream, just bitter yo)... So, about right now I'm feeling buzzed... All sugared and caffeine-d up... I can't keep secrets while trippin on choco-caffeine-chips so I'm just going to spill the lil beans I've been gathering...

It's OFFICIAL... Luck-One and I are BACK! We've decided to team up for a full length project set to drop Feb/March 2010. The concept: MAKE A FUCKING CLASSIC..... The goal: MAKE A FUCKING CLASSIC. Watch out world, we HUNGRY!! In the meantime, peep this new Luck-One track that was just featured on illroots... It's banonkerz (bananas & bonkerz). I didn't do this beat, but I wish I did ;-) Good work Luck!


Luck-One- Right Now

Second Secret: It's OFFICIAL... illaj & I are going in on an ELECTRO-POP EP... The vision: MAKE MUSIC THAT PEOPLE WILL MAKE MISTAKES TOO..... The goal: ENABLE YOUR BAD DECISION MAKING... lol... Really though, illaj is an extremely creative, open minded dude who is eager to stretch the limits of hip hop culture. I'm super excited about this project because I need an outlet that allows me to take "the box" and say "FUCK YOU BOX"... lol... We're hoping to wrap this up and get it out by Oct/Nov 2009. In the meantime, download illaj's latest mixtape "What Would Picasso Do?"
