    Inspired

    Watching the Obama speech tonight
    I'm inspired 
    The power of his words
    Lifting people to their feet with every point he makes
    So I think to myself
    How do I speak to masses?
    How do I express myself?
    My blog DUH!
    So I'm back to writing 
    What's Popping Son?!?!!?

    Valentines Day Brings Out Some Characteristics
    That Others Wouldn't Do On Other Days

    Here Is A Thought

    Can't really say thought of the day
    It's midnight
    I'm done with midterms and doesn't have to go in to school till like 12
    If it wasn't for basketball
    I woulda stayed that ass home
    Thought:
    A misunderstanding of words
    Becomes not what you said
    But what the other person believes the intentions were

    What Is On My Mind

    Jazz Is In My Veins
    You See My Soul In My Pain
    Leaving A Funk That's Deranged
    No Two Notes Are The Same
    I Am Abel Without Cain
    So There Is Never A Feeling That Is Vain
    Only I Can See Where It Goes
    I Can Feel It In The Rain
    Every Feeling Is Seemingly Insane
    I Can't Tell You What's Going On
    It's Only My Perspective
    Everything Will Fall In Place
    Life Is Tetris
    I Pick Up Each Puzzle Piece
    Until It Puzzles Me
    Everything Is Happening So Suddenly
    Suddenly
    I Can Picture It
    I Can Kodak Frame It
    Biggie Said He Like'd His Girls Brainless
    Now A Days We Only Care How The Brain Is
    I Keep Hearing
    Thelonious
    "You Boys Are So Complicated"
    Well I'm Different
    So Tell Em I'm Not Elated
    Simply
    A Jazz Baby
    Lately Expressing On How He Is Feeling
    True Thoughts
    Mind Is Gun And It's Bullets 
    Make A Killing

    THOUGHT OF THE DAY

    Don't ask about the all caps
    Anywho
    Thought Of The Day:
    Nervousness and silence in between conversation
    Is nervousness on both parts
    Not wanting to say the wrong thing to someone is trying to hard
    Have confidence in your matter
    Yet if you have nothing to say
    Remember eye contact, and body language
    You can say a thousand thing by looking someone in the eye

    Thought Of The Day

    Alright 
    Word as bond son
    Thought Of The Day:
    When you know you got one up on someone
    Never let up
    In all seriousness
    To some life is a game to some life is war
    Never take yourself too seriously
    But never LET the next man one up you
    Always Always Always
    Stay on top of your game
    And don't anyone tell you different

    Thought Of The Day

    I've found my niche
    I know what works and what doesn't
    Aside from my few real friends in my grade
    Rest of them fools can kick rocks
    Thought Of The Day:
    When people take you way to seriously
    Every little thing you say
    Becomes over analyzed 
    You become often to ridiculed 
    Your body language
    Taken abruptly as some type of insulting gesture
    I figure that 
    Things aren't that serious
    I've stopped analyzing things myself
    All I know is music doesn't lie to me
    And neither does a good friend

    Thought Of The Day

    Summary of my day:
    Wake up early 
    Work on beats
    Shower. School.
    School= Boring as fuck
    Recording club
    Got some ideas 
    And hopefully I'll get them in action
    Other then that
    My game
    we won
    It was against Nutley though
    They aren't that good
    Lost my iPod after the game
    Now I got the ill crappy mood

    Thought of The Day:
    Ever want to scream at someone at the top of your lungs 
    And call them on all their bluffs
    Just because they rub you the wrong way
    It's days like this were you gotta keep your cool 
    And do what you're told
    Yet don't keep that energy pent up
    You need to vent into the things that make you happy
    Convert your energy that makes you burn with passion
    To energy that that makes you passionate about what makes you happy

    Thought For The Day

    You know what?
    Forget the whole staying current on fashion
    That's what HYPEBEAST is for or HIGHSNOBIETY
    And I'm a producer why would I try to stay current with music like that
    I mean I check on what's hot or not
    But I know what I like so I look out for certain artists
    If you need new music hit up Hypekillaz
    Shiiiiiit nikkka this what I does
    My thought of the day:
    When you are good at what you do
    There is always that day when the next man one ups you
    There is a sense of "I got to do better"
    And it doesn't come from what your peers says for constructive criticism
    It has to come from within
    YOU have to do something to reclaim your top spot
    Because no matter how self confident
    You have to better yourself

    What Is Music To Me

    The title sounds like some third grade shit
    But I need to get some stuff off my chest when it comes to music
    When I was little
    Mom worked two jobs (shoot, she still do)
    I had got a boombox at like my ninth christmas
    It was cool
    I get to jam out whenever
    No more waiting for mom to crank the radio
    Man when I was little 
    I used to sing to every song on the radio
    It was type crazy
    I used to get in trouble for beatboxing when I was little
    My mom said stop making sound effects
    But I anywho
    All I had when moms duke wasn't home (and like I said she worked two jobs)
    I bumped to the radio
    Now when I say bumped
    I mean listened to
    Nodded my head
    Jumped around the house for hours to
    All day long
    I did my homework to music
    I became consumed in music
    I met Matt in sixth grade
    We were doing this multi-media project
    And he played these beats I was like
    Hey these are cool
    He told me he made em
    I didn't believe him at first
    I chilled with homie at the crib (the first of many)
    I told dude I rap
    We started a small rap crew called Voice Of Reason
    Hence the birth of my musical involvement seriously
    All throughout middle school
    It was on and off 
    I really didn't stick to it until I finally realized
    I should take it into my own hands
    I begged and pleaded for moms duke to get a Mac Laptop
    So it started
    About May of this year
    Got the laptop
    Started off in Garageband
    Making beats with loops and shit
    Then I slowly progressed
    Using samples and finding new loops
    It continued and I elevated myself to a new level
    It got to the point where all I think of is music
    So I talked to Mr. Frye (one of the coolest teachers I've ever met)
    About starting this Musical Recording Club
    An environment where we could record and make music
    Hence the making of I Am The Walrus and Black Magic
    Things are a little advanced now from when I first started
    I play all my parts in the beats no loops
    So any drum pattern or bassline or whatever
    It's me
    I'm sampling ridiculous now
    Like Mr. Frye had a M-Audio Axiom-25 just sitting around and now
    I'm borrowing it day to day
    It's my baby now
    Basically this is my musical bio so far
    I'm looking at colleges for degrees in musical recording
    I truly love this shit (to be ignorant and passionate about it)
    Like I'll say it now
    My family and personal life have some pretty messed aspects
    As a product of a single mother home
    Music is my escape
    It's what I play to get away 
    I don't smoke or drink
    But I'm blasted and high off of music
    As corny as it sounds
    I'm not going to rehab 
    Like it's the only thing I truly react to
    Everything else now a days is over saturated
    With lies, deceit, and hatred
    But music doesn't lie to me
    It has it's own pattern and bass lines hum to me
    It speaks a certain way that only me and music can understand
    But really music is what I love
    I am music
    And I love myself
    So as I love myself
    I'll keep doing this music
    Because there will always be a reason
    For me to clear my head
