Just typing...

What direction is the rap game going in presently? Can anyone tell me? Where Wayne goes platinum, and Drake is on every hook, yet he is one of the most lyrical mainstream artist, and Soulja Boy being one of the richest artist in the game right now with how many songs on the radio in his career so far??

Its all about swag now. I need to go get some dank swag soon. I mean lets be honest:

How can you get a girl if your swag is not on this level:

Gotta get some cool shirts with crazy sketches on em.... 

Gotta make my own clothing label..

Rappers punch lines are getting way more unique... either unique or cliché.. and the ones that are cliché tend to get ignored anyway. 

I was looking up instrumentals to hop on for Loose Thoughts Vol. 1 when I realized that most newer tracks on the radio are pretty much shuffle beats... what do I do about that? 

By the way, LMFAO is garbage.... I'm usually not one to say something like that but they came to preform for my school and they sucked... I don't even wanna get into it, just know they sucked.

I gotta start tagging again. But yea, taking crazy amounts of pictures; now that I got that, WEBSITE COMING SOON! Check back for more info.

this thing is so ill!!!! haha

Guess who got a camera!?

Whaaaaat! This thing is sooooo ill!

First I had to figure out how to get it to work....

Then I took like 20 pictures hahahah!

You guys are definitely gonna get the exclusives now..

Heard the 'I'm Partying' track yet?

Anyway, I'm making a lot of hot music, trying to get my recording equipment together. I'll take pictures of the studio now and put them up :). I'll have to post my SoundClick up for people who'd want to purchase any beats I have. Gonna go take some pictures haha.

Peace.

First off, this video is live!

I'm glad Tyler, the Creator won best new artist, I really like his originality...

So I've had a lot going on recently. But now that I am settled in, I can get back to work.

As of right now, my recording equipment is not with me :/.. which means I'm making a TUN of beats for the next week or so, sooo....

Same time... you should know the drill by now. I like the track, its off of Unplugged Vol. 1 so its "a real song" haha: I produced it and what not.. I hope everyone likes it.

On another note, sorry it took so long for me to get back on my musik game. School :/... Anyway, I'm back and I am half way done with both Unplugged Vol. 1 and Loose Thoughts Vol. 1 so expect some more news on that really soon..

I need to get myself a camera.. anyone have any suggestions for a good first HD camera? maybe an HD video camera so I can record myself for YouTube. I have to do a photo shoot still.. man I've been slacking.. Cut my hair too btw (not completely, don't worry), I'll put up a new picture up about that really soon.
