just keeping it real..

I've been blogging for so long..even way before my city mixtape came out. I won't get a tumblr..no point - I'll use this right? I used to be so into this blog....posting essay long ideas and thoughts that came into my mind... then I had nothing to say....
because everything I said I started putting into my music...


I do have to say one thought though....
that mixtape you heard - 40's & high class shorties
on the front side of it..yeah, it's about partying your face off
but on the back side of it..
if you listen closely - maybe if you need to smoke to it..then smoke to it
because there is more metaphorical thoughts and shit that you'll hear
you never even realized u were listening to..
listen to the production - the beat..
just close your eyes and put your head phones on at night when your bored
focus on the left & right ear channel -
listen to the synths and the layers of sounds i mixed..
does it get visual at all? if you don't know I focus more on the feel of the record..
the beat side..the melody and all
soooo..
hopefully now you can appreciate this mixtape..
if you just listen a little closer

I remember staying up for 2 to 3 days straight mixing this album..I still work that hard..you have to

"you gotta create challenges that are hard to accomplish..if the goal is easy then what the fuck is the point?
if everyone loves your music then your doing something wrong and if your completely satisfied with your work then you've already called it quits."

--so we stay working 24/7 - stay making ideas - stay new, relevant and true to yourself.--
