Hmmm…. what doesn’t kill you will only make you want to figure out just how far you can push that envelope until it comes close to killing you or does. I just wanted to say that. I’m about to record a song, by the above title. This is a fun one cause I KILLED the [...]

Hoping that those words would invoke some sort of inspirational mood. Instead I feel almost nothing. Although its good to see the people you came up with, one has to wonder where the time went and why the growth didn’t go with it. (or come) So many of my old peeps are exactly where they [...]

It’s not everyday we get to explore music. some of us never really dig into other people’s love… cause we “love” our own so much (sad excuse). I hope somebody picks some of this guys stuff up. it’s good. regardless of genre. so if you have the time… explore. video: XLR8R TV Episode 70: Eliot [...]

is slowly on its way to being listening-to-able. I am still teaching myself the MPC thingy. Once I figure out the next thing it’ll be good. super good. yeah (good) is the extent of how I feel about what two months ago I would’ve called dope…   Grip H just came thru ya’ll. Always dropping [...]

I’m skinny… I guess that’s better than being obese or on some kind of weight lose plan…. or crack. lol. just thought I should share it…. also I made some pretty good noise on my new toy… got some tracks coming up soon for yall…. but most will remain under wraps. overall… I think the [...]
