Sooo I decided I'm going to participate at the open mic event at UNF so come see me! It's @7:30 and its a free event, and there is a free food! How could you not?!? Please come and show support if you can! I have another performance at The Pit on November 11th, don't wanna talk to much about it until after the open mic -- just something to plug into your calendars.
Writing this in class. Hold on...
K, anyway. Come check it out, it will be lots of fun! Student Union Ballrooms, 7:30 it begins come say whats up after the performance and check out all the talent thats going to be there.... and come see me preform at The Pit on November 11th! Thats all for now!
Ok so I may preform sometime soon in November. I may be opening for Slaine and Hed Pe!
Slaine is pretty cool, check him out!
I like his style.
As of right now—if I do preform—tickets will be $10 (c'mon guys thats nothing and I really need you to support me). I will need as many of my fans to show up as possible because the more people that come for me, the more likely I will be able to preform at different places and more frequently.
I really don't have too much more info for right now but I will be updating the blog as soon as I hear anything back, believe me. So please check back. Thank you guys for all of the support!
I will definitely update the blog as soon as I get any information.
I still would like to make a music video or two for Unplugged but I may invest my time in another project I'm working on. Oh, I'm working on a tun of stuff by the way with a tun of people, so don't think you won't hear from me soon!
The more Likes on my Facebook, the faster I release material.
Just saying....
I really want some sushi today for some reason.
So these first two mixtapes I kinda rushed (as much as a "perfectionist" can rush himself) so that people can have something to listen to. But from this point on, I am gonna be taking my time and putting a lot more energy into every single track, so I can give you guys some REAL MUSIC soon. So I guess this is that time I was telling everyone to hold on till.
Lets get down to business, my career starts now!
Things to look foreword to on the blog:
I will release something huge at 150 fans, whether it be a video or a new downloadable single, or something. So please spread the word as much as you can... Just get like 3 of your friends to click the like button on Facebook. Lol
I am definitely going to get some gigs soon so I will need some support.
@YoungManik Shirt give away soon!
Working with a TUN of really talented artists
Info about the next project!
So stay with me everyone. Thanks for the support, and share the mixtape, and my Facebook with everyone!!!
I can't thank you guys enough for supporting me so far! It's great motivation. I have been working non-stop (besides school.. which obviously comes first lol) on perfecting this project. It's not going to have any features but its the perfect mixtape to play at a party: crazy beats, clean yet fun lyrics, and catchy hooks. It is going to be a totally different project than Loose Thoughts.
Hows everyone liking that by the way?
I'm hungry but my stomach hurts.. don't you hate that feeling?
Anyway..
Swag
I got to play a little bit of Infamous 2 for the first time in a while because I've been so busy with the music. Add me on ps3: TheProblemed1
I'm trying release a music video for Unplugged soon too!
I'm trying to get a few extra tracks on the mixtape as a thank you for the 1000+ blog views.
I just wanted to update the fans about Unplugged really quickly.
Thank you everyone for the feedback! Tun of people liked the Loose Thoughts Mixtape, sorry for the delay on the Datpiff link.. It messed the statistics up.
I have a lot in store so just follow the blog. I will try and release one new blog every day until the release of Unplugged. I'll release the track listings and other info like that on here as much as I can, so be ready.
Help me get 100 likes on my Facebook.com/YoungManik page please!
I'm close, I have been working so hard and I hope it pays off. I have a few finishing touches put on it, and a few tracks to cut but over all it's sounding like a solid project. I have so much planned for after Unplugged that the adventure hasn't even begun.
Heres the video leak for the Strange Clouds freestyle for those of you who haven't heard it yet:
ENJOY! Let me know how you like it; leave feedback in anyway possible! On the blog, Facebook, myspace, tumblr, datpiff. Everything you can do to show support please do. PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE, LIKE the Facebook page and tell everyone..
You will always be able to find all of my music on my website too!
NEW VIDEO + LOOSE THOUGHTS VOL. 1 MIXTAPE DROPPING AT 75 Likes on Facebook !!!
Its gonna be a little warm up before Unplugged. I put a lot of work into all of it so I hope everyone appreciates/likes the final product. Loose Thoughts should have 8 or 9 tracks, I guess you'll see at 75 Likes :). Share my Facebook page with everyone: www.facebook.com/youngmanik and don't forget UNPLUGGED DROPPING OCTOBER 21st!!! BE HERE!
On a side note..
I got a new mic!! :D
Its a Blue! :)
And its orange :)
You'll see it in the video that drops with Loose Thoughts (name drop haha). I like it, and its clean.
So ya...... Loose Thoughts coming at 75 fb likes, tell everyone!!! and Unplugged October 21st!!
Thats all for now!
OK SOOOOOO A lot to say so pay attention... and go:
One track away from making sure the mixtape is done, it will probably be 11 tracks... 10 or 11... (you'll know by the next post) and will be available for play/download first on Datpiff: http://www.datpiff.com/profile/YoungManik/mixtapes it the link for it will be on YoungManik.com as well as here obviously (and most likely any other site that you've seen me on..) I made about 20 tracks and narrowed it down to these 11 (or 10).
Laptop's dying..
Umm... The beats are pretty cool to me, they're simple, most of them are either like Sick Wit It or Her Name, but some of them are pretty creative.. They're all gonna make you nod you head for sure!
Sick Wit It
Her Name
Lyrically - Its really quick on wordplay sometimes, but its mainly about flow, so you can play it at your next party! :P
Its lots of fun, and entertaining at least to me. I worked really hard on the mixtape and I really appreciate everyone who has been supporting me. Its goes in a few directions and this is the type of genre that the Unplugged Mixtapes will fit into.. its also clean (from the vocab point :P), its still a party mixtape so its going to end up pretty shallow, but there is no cursing on it!
PRODUCED ALL BEATS,
ENGINEERED ALL TRACKS,
WROTE ALL VERSES,
... WENT IN!!
^I've really been working hard and I hope it pays off.
..HUNGRY!! <That time it was literal.. like I'm starving
So before the mixtape drops, my main goal is to have as many people become a fan of the Facebook page by clicking the Like Button to show support. I just want 100 fans before I drop the tape, is that too much to ask?!?!? lol
Please Share the Facebook page!
THE NEXT POST WILL HAVE THE RELEASE DATE INFO!!!
Check Back! :)
-MaNiK
P.S. It's finally getting here! We've made it a long way, thank you so much and keep showing support!
What's good everyone? Got almost 100 views on the track! A lot of people really liked that track... a lot of people didn't.. I guess its just not your taste :P. Which brings me to the subject of this post: taste.
Ok so people keep hearing different styles in my music and are questioning what direction am I heading with Unplugged Vol. 1.. Well, my best attempt at an explanation is that it's for partying n stuff... like don't take it too seriously dude; play it at a party but don't take the lyrics in it and base my lyrical talent or ganre off of this mixtape.
For those looking for the lyrics.. just give it time I promise :). I got a lot lined up.
THE RELEASE DATE FOR Unplugged Vol. 1 WILL BE ANNOUNCED VERY SOON. I've been working a lot the last few days, I've recorded 2 tracks a day - can't slack off: Eat, Sleep, Musik, Repeat lol. More info coming very soon, once I can drop this mixtape I won't have to put up so many info-laced posts. NEW SINGLE DROPPING IN ABOUT A WEEK be ready..
