Time and Time Again



I remember the first time I heard this song I was walking on the street with my friend Bryce, and there was this car at the stoplight and the radio came on and the guy in the car was like "AYY!!" as soon as he heard it and turnt it up. Me and Bryce were like crunking and dancing in the street while the guy in the guy was banging his head to this. LMAO, good times, anyways... Purple Ribbon All-Stars (I have no idea where they get the name from) pull it together real good with some Big Boi style on it. Although I might be from New York, it makes me feel like I'm from the A (Atlanta).

Thoughts On My Mind | Like A Star

Photobucket

These past couple of weeks in my life have actually seemed to calm down just a bit. I mean I'm doing everything that I was before but, now it's just... calm.

School has been ok, I mean I really really love my advisory, I think even more than my section (9F). Like, it's weird though because everyone in my advisory is aware we are all so different but when were all in the same room together we all just are comfortable with who we are. For example, Star this girl in my advisory is really uiet has and a small group of friends, and that's cool don't get me wrong but when she gets in advisory she seems really comfortable talking to all 11 of us in the advisory at once without shying up. Or Alisa who is one of the coolest people I've met in a while, is sort of the more popular person. She's friends with a lot of people in the school but stills talks to all of us with respect and doesn't act as if she is superior to us (I hate those type of people).

Me and Alisa an have got to know each other a lot better since the beginning of the year but it always seems like I don't know her when I see her in the halls, and it's not even because she acts different. It's just... I really don't know, haha. Like when were not together in the same room i'm just someone you say 'hi' to in the halls but, when we are in the same room together or like having a conversation, it's different. Not implying anything but just saying. I think that me and her are going to have some sort of special connection in the future (I mean who knows?).

As for my music career... A LOT has happened since I last posted but since I don't feel like boring you readers today I'll just keep it brief. Me and I-CON (Jake, my friend and soon-to-be signee) are getting in the studio next saturday a lot more musically educated thanks to MC Sa'id (big-time beatmaker/producer). He wrote The BeatTips Manual, a 400 page book with all the information in the world to be successful in the music industry and to be an icon in beatmaking specifically. We had an hour conversation with him on the phone and I think I learned like 200 pages worth of text in every like 2 sentences he said cause the conversation was that interesting and informative. If you want check him out, go to BeatTips.com and/or BeatTips2.com. Don't forget his son's site to (which is actually really informing) at Amir13.com.

By the way, the East Coast Action website is almost done. If you want the sneak peek CLICK HERE.

Flashback Post | Which Fast Food Rap is Better?


Here are the lyrics if you want to rap along:
"I need a double cheeseburger and hold the lettuce -/- Don't be frontin' son no seeds on a bun -/- We be up in this drive thru/Order for two -/- I gots a craving for a number nine like my shoe -/- We need some chicken up in here -/- In this dizzle/For rizzle my mizzle -/- Extra salt on the frizzle -/- Dr. Pepper my brother -/- Another for your mother -/- Double double super size -/- And don't forget the FRIES..."


The video below is the Taco Bell version, which is better than the first Taco Bell version, but the vote is up to you all... Which one is better? The voting booth is below the video (the comments).



Here is the lyrics for the Taco Bell video if you want to rap along for the first part:

Guy: "Dont wanna spend dollars just cents every time we want grilled chicken for only 89 cause its tasty sour cheese and its packed to last i know i'm talk'n fast did you get all that, thats how its done right there"

Girl: "hold on son lets repeat it back I get what you rap but you rap like i hack here we go watch me flow 89 cents for a chicken burrito its chickalisious every bite smack it when we fight price so light when yo wallet kinda tight you wanna keep it going its a battle all night"

Ebony and Ivory

March Madness?

Photobucket

What up?

Well I have A LOT on my mind. The past couple of days have been really productive music wise but, it feels weird cause everything I am doing now feels so adult. Honestly, I'm glad I noticed that I don't want to be the kid who sits at home on weekends and plays video games all the time. But, at the same time it feels weird to be growing into the person that I want to be in this world. Like knowing that Jake (my signee) might get signed to Universal Republic Records/Young Money Entertainment and me leading the way since I've been his manager/mentor for the past 4 months it's already great progress for a 14 year old.

Socially my world has been up and down like one of those heartbeat sensor thingy. One day at school I'll feel like everyone knows me as a person who is a cool guy just like them, and the next day I'll feel invisible with people looking at me in weird ways all because they made their first impression of me before I even met them. Most of the time I'll shake it off but it's still rotating in my queue of thoughts everyday when I pass the one's that judge me in the halls.

Right now currently though life just feels mediocre, not anything to get to excited about, I just feel like me, and my social life and friend expansion is straining to expand at this point cause we ARE more than halfway through the year so everyone already feels like they know who they should know and that's it. Left out? Maybe.

I am happy for one thing though. I met this girl named Tsiann I knew from waaay back in pre-school and we were like best friends and I really wanted (notice the past tense) until after a while she stopped responding to the messages on Facebook. Maybe I talked to much. But, who's knows... as Jay-Z says, "Got to learn to live with regrets."
