G Da Mc (From The Council)- It's A Shame

Just saw the video above about 10 minutes ago and i am purely in awe. I was really proud and happy with the editing of the video as well as the content of the song. G Da Mc or Gilbert as i know him, never really does solo music so to see him shine on his own was real, real dope. Meanwhile all of this is happening while controversy between me and him and other group members stirred up. I still feel some type of way about it especially since G is so direct. But like everything there are two sides and his direct attitude can be negative and it can be positive. In the video above, it is without question positive. So applaud that man. Applaud The Council. And support good music. Regardless of my situation, i always show love, especially when it is shown back.

First Two Reviews: Kid Cudi & Kanye, Nicki, Banks

I'm just posting the incomplete drafts of the two reviews i wrote that were published. The first is basically what got printed with minor changes and the second one, which will come out tomorrow i believe, is about 500 words longer than the one that's getting published. Hope you guys enjoy both. I love writing but I'm such a procrastinator.Kid Cudi Returns With MOTM 2: The Legend of Mr. Rager
By Jonathan Martinez

In 2009, Kid Cudi released his near-classic debut album “Man on the Moon: End of Day,” which had fans and critics raving. Led by the catchy lead single “Day N Night,” Cudi introduced his stoner personality to the world. He then displayed his diversity and taste in music with such hits as “Make Her Say” featuring fellow label mates Kanye West and Common and the upbeat “Pursuit of Happiness.” A year later, Kid Cudi has emerged into a well known artist and has been slowly straying away from hip-hop trading it in for pop hits, alternative music, and a more mainstream rock-like sound. With his sophomore release, “Man on the Moon II: The Legend of Mr. Rager,” Cudi follows the same format as his debut, using 5 acts to tell his story, which includes a continuous cycle of themes about drugs, sex, and partying to depression, self-pity and loneliness. Backed up by production from Plain Pat, Chuck Inglish, Emile, Jim Jonsin and No ID, Cudi moves into a more dark and psychedelic state than ever witnessed before but still ends up somehow being positive.
Excluding such tracks as the extremely catchy lead single “Erase Me,” a tune about a girl who tries to forget Cudi but can’t, and “REVOFEV,” a somewhat politically driven track that calls for a revolution, “Man on the Moon II” is eerie, compelling, deep, but somewhat repetitive at times. On the first few listens, many of the songs sound too similar with Cudi crooning about taking on the struggles of being famous and a loner. Still the album is an utterly amazing, creative piece of work, and one of the more passionate, experimental albums in recent years. Also, Cudi keeps the features at a minimum but picks a very unique cast to help him establish the legend of Mr. Rager.
In the opening track of the album "Scott Medscudi vs. The World" Cudi recruits Cee-lo for the song's hook, and opens up, after a very space like intro, with the lines "What up, how is everyone doing, you are now in the world, I'm ruling, take a minute to adjust." These lines help create the setting of the album and informs us that we are now entering into Cudi's world or rather Mr. Rager's, so we must leave ours behind and meet him "on the other side." The next feature on the album is with the Hip-Hop and RnB Queen, Mary J. Blige, who actually appears on two tracks. Her soulful voice helps escalate the mood on the hooks of both "Don't Play This Song" and "These Worries "and allows Cudi to just rap for the most part. "Don't Play This Song" refers to Cudi's frequent trips to the land of drugs and sadness and how people aren't really helping Cudi when they tell him to be careful. "These Worries" takes a different route sonically than "Don't Play..." with Cudi rapping over a hard hitting drum but follows a similar path by discussing his constant fights with worries that weigh heavy on him physically and mentally as well as dealing with people who really don't care.
The next feature is arguably the best one on the album, which pairs rock rapper Cage and Kid Cudi along side a creepy St. Vincent sample that echos "I am a maniac." The chorus' words are not only extremely fitting to the album's craziness but it also allows the listener to focus on the intricate lyrics and repetitive melodies. "Maniac" is an amazing blend of rock, alternative, and hip-hop that calls for a repeat on almost every listen. "The End" is the last song that includes features and it is a star studded cast. GLC and Chip Tha Ripper, a long time friend and collaborator of Cudi's, help by each lending memorable verses while Nicole Wray takes care of the chorus duties. Each rapper from GLC to Cudi add a different perspective on their verses, which ends up being intriguingly refreshing and one of the more unique songs on the album.
Other standouts on the album, include the anthematic ode to Bob Marley's and every rapper's favorite drug, "Marijuana," the rebellious "Mojo So Dope," and the repetitive "Wild'n Cuz I'm Young," where Cudi explains why he can do what he wants. "Mr. Rager" is one of the more compelling songs where Cudi takes on a persona to go on a deep, self-reflecting adventure.
The album concludes with "All Along," "GHOST!," and "Trapped In My Mind" which all paint pictures of Cudi's non-stop qualms, but each actually leaves room for hope, prosperity, and positivity. Cudi sings "I'm trapped in my mind, and I know it's crazy- hey, it's not that bad at all." This is a major breakthrough for Kid Cudi because he is learning to cope with his struggles while also realizing that his world isn't that bad- and he's right. His world isn't bad at all, actually his world makes for a great trip and an excellent album, although an emotional and captivating one, it is worth going back to.

The Rise of Nicki Minaj, The Return of Kanye West, & Lloyd Banks’ Reintroduction (or The Resurrection of Lloyd Banks)

By Jonathan Martinez
NICKI MINAJ:

The rise of Nicki Minaj was inevitable. From dropping mixtape after mixtape to featuring on everybody and their mama’s record she became the most anticipated female rapper in years, if not ever, and with good reason. Nicki is dynamic and animated on the microphone, (reminiscent of a young Busta Rhymes), has a versatile style, is a great lyricist, and like her male counterpart Drake, can sing and rap. Her media image and physical appearance may throw you off a little bit but do not fall for the gimmicks, Nicki is far from fake, in fact she is surprisingly vulnerable, reflective, and of course cocky as hell.
On the album's opening track "I'm the Best" Nicki displays the side of her we've come to love, the aggressive dominating female, but sprinkled with self aware lyrics like "I remember when I couldn't by my mother a couch, now I’m sitting at the closing bought my mother a house" and "All the girls will commend, as long as they understand, that I’m fighting for the girls who never thought they could win." "I'm the best" is the perfect segway into "Roman's Revenge," where Nicki trades venom spewing verses with Eminem. Both seem extremely comfortable and are fierce on the track and although, Swizz Beatz production is lackluster, the song is by far the hardest, if not the best song on "Pink Friday.”
After the braggadocios "Did It On 'Em," the CD becomes a very compelling piece of art, with the focus turning from "I'm better than you" rhymes to lyrics on the struggles of fame, how it feels to be a female mc in a male dominated world, and enjoying the moment of stardom. From "Right Thru Me" to "Moment 4 Life" the album is at its best, after that not so much. With the exception of "Blazin," featuring Kanye West, where Nicki shows off her incredible rapid fire flow but doesn't quite out match Kanye's wit and swag on the track, and possibly "Dear Old Nicki," a reflective 3rd person conversation between the new Nicki and the old one, the rest of the album is mediocre.
Minus the catchy but annoying "Your Love," the extremely poppy and simplistic "Check It Out" and the almost forgettable final track "Pink Friday" is an excellent debut. The album isn't too eccentric and contains just enough gritty and witty rhymes to be considered a hip-hop album. Although her debut is far from classic it still manages to demonstrate Nicki Minaj's true personality and promise to be an unstoppable force in years to come.
First Week Sales: 375,000
Kanye West:
In 2008, Kanye West went against all odds and dropped his most personal album, 808's and Heartbreak, where he abandoned rapping for auto-tuned crooning mixed with electrifying, painful production. Since then, Kanye has had a few media lapses (*cough Taylor Swift *cough) and therefore disappeared for the most part from the very thing that made him famous, hip-hop. But in 2010 Kanye has returned, revived, with a fresher sound than ever before and with a relentless desire to claim back the throne that is rightfully his. With his new album, My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy, Kanye has crafted another classic this time with help from a star studded cast that includes Jay-Z, Elton John, Rhianna, Rick Ross, Bon Iver, John Legend, Swizz Beats, and many more.
From the introduction track, “Dark Fantasy”, Kanye wastes no time setting the mellow mood. Thanks to help from RZA and No ID on the production side and Nicki Minaj’s narration, we begin our journey into Kanye’s mind and realize the deeper we dig the more complex Mr. West gets. We learn on tracks like “Power” that no man should have too much power and on “Runaway,” the most critical and self-reflective song on the album, that although Kanye is toasting to himself when he says “douche bags,” his knack for piano keys and experimentation is phenomenal and beyond any other artist, past or present. Other compelling tracks include “All of The Lights” and “Blame Game” which are probably the two best songs on the album.
“All of the Lights” starts off with a piano and a violin playing side to side one another until rapid fire drums take over. Kanye then proceeds to spit conscious raps that range from relationship abuse to Michael Jackson’s death. On “Blame Game” featuring John Legend’s smooth soulful voice, Kanye takes a simple relationship problem to another level by testing out vocal effects, his singing, and adding Chris Rock at the song’s conclusion. For nearly 8 minutes on “Blame Game” Kanye’s got you hooked on every word and sound, it is like nothing you’ve ever heard before. Ironically and thankfully that’s how the whole album is. Every track contains unexpected drops, perfectly done piano melodies, thrilling drums that excite the ears and speakers alike and most importantly memorable lyrics, even when they’re not Kanye’s.
On the colossal single “Monster,” Kanye delivers some of his best word play like “you ever had sex with a pharaoh, put the pussy in a sarcophagus” and “my presence is a present kiss my ass” but its Jay-Z and Nicki who steal the show. Don’t get it twisted though, Kanye holds down his own especially on “Hell of A Life”, where he describes his want for women and religion, and on the final track “Lost in The World” Kanye spits what maybe his most poetic lyrics yet, “You’re my devil, You’re my angel, You’re my heaven, You’re my hell… if we die in each other’s arms we’ll still get laid in the afterlife.” My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy is just another chapter in Kanye’s legacy and it displays his genius at a time where music, to quote Rolling Stone, has us “lowering our expectations, surrendering our attention spans, settling for less, but West wants us to demand more.”
First week sales: 496,000
Lloyd Banks:
Lloyd Banks is one of the 21st century's best and most underrated lyricists when it comes to rapping. With his new album “Hunger for More 2,” the sequel to his debut album in 2003, he is not only ready to resurrect his career, he’s focused on displaying why he’s one of the best. With the smash hit “Beamer, Benz or Bentley” featuring Juelz Santana, Banks crafted the biggest hit of his career and gave fans a reason to believe, again. The next two singles “Any Girl” featuring Lloyd and “Start It Up,” which teamed Banks up with Kanye West, Fabolous, Ryan Leslie and Swizz Beatz, prove that he has found a comfort zone and can make radio friendly music as well as anathematic songs. The rest of the album, for the most part, illustrates that Banks hasn’t lost his edge, bringing some of the grimiest lyrics on hardcore production we’ve ever heard from him.
On the first three tracks of the album, Banks recruits fellow G-Unit members Tony Yayo and 50 Cent as well as D-Block’s Styles P, a new and surprising collaborator, to help set the very street-like mood of the album. Banks shows off his great word play in “Payback (P’s and Q’s) by saying “I got the drama kid and my Obama whip, bitches running up on my stage, Lil Mama shit.” As the singles and first couple tracks show, the album contains tons of features but that doesn’t mean Banks can’t hold it down by himself. On what may be the best song on H.F.M 2, “Father Time,” Banks, on his own, delivers an extremely catchy hook that contains an unexpectedly harmonizing bridge over a hard hitting drum and dark violin instrumentation. Banks boasts with lines like “shopping while I laugh at ya, rappers feed my appetite, metaphors will tackle ya, these n****z ain’t half as nice, playboy in my afterlife” showing that he hasn’t lost his touch at all.
Other notable songs include “I Don’t Deserve You” with Jeremiah who helps ignite the song by taking over chorus duties, “Home Sweet Home,” which contains a very credible verse from Pusha T, and “On The Double” where Banks gets his chance to brag about life in two’s. “Celebrity” although a good concept focusing on the troubles of being a star, is a little uninspiring and with Akon on the chorus, the song sounds a bit outdated as well. “So Forgetful” is another great song with a nice concept (it seems like this could be like a sequel or continuation of “Any Girl”) but doesn’t really fit in explaining Banks’ hunger pains. Minus the very minor things that could make Hunger For More 2 sound more polished, this is the album we all wanted from Banks back in 2006. Either way, we should be thankful that in 2010 Banks is not only still rhyming with precision but trying to expand his own brand. Hunger For More 2 is the perfect way to reintroduce and resurrect Banks’ career and more importantly leaving us the fans hungry for more too.

Happy Birthday Eminem

Happy Birthday Em. I know my blog is starting to look like the Eminem Show or the Stan show (no pun intended) :) but he really is the greatest. Above is a glimpse of his greatness in 1999 and i sort of remade this song in my own way on this guy hannibal's beat. I might add a fourth verse and someother shit to it, we'll see. Anywho... just wanted to update you guys. My grandfather's leaving tuesday to go back to Ecuador, kinda sad. 4weeks go by quick, i tell you that much. It's just hard because a lot of people, rather most people in my life just kind of up and leave. But i know he'll come back and i'll definitely try and call him at least 3 times more than i do now (which is zero). Sad, again, i know, trust me.

On some good news though, i finally hung out with my uncle mike and i think i impressed the founder and studio owner of skylab ent., Los. Cool guy. Hispanic. Just started rapping. He liked my songs and i always feel weird having these guys who don't know my music...listen to it, ya know. Anyway, when i go back there i'm going to start recording my project that ill release through SkyLab Ent. I also have to finish my dual mixtape which is with Cloud 9/Honor Roll. THEN i'm going to try to do 2 other projects one solely produced by Hannibal and DJ Puerto Roc. Maybe i'll mixed it. Idk if i can have just ONE producer but we'll see. I bought like 6 beats off of Roc and i have yet to really conquer them but i do want to record something with him in jersey within the next month so i gotta get a move on but i can't rush greatness or my talent.

On a side note, incompetant, idiotic people are annoying. LMAO. Will not go in depth about it but whatever. BY THE WAY, I'm still obsessed over the SOCIAL NETWORK and want to see it again...anyone who wants to go, well, just contact me. I want to read and see the movie "waiting for superman" as well looks type dope. OHHH and just to bring Eminem back for a second, i'm doing a paper on him for one of my classes... like how ill is that?!?!?!?! I know and once i finish it i'm going to try and get it published somewhere...the makings of a young writer, Jonathan Andrew (separate from Jam Young).

LAST THING, Basketball starts tomorrow. A little nervous BUT not dwelling... THIS IS MY TIME. I know it and so i gotta take advantage of it. I have people believing in me and wanting this for me and NOW it's time for me to believe in myself. Everything else will come together after that. So let's make it happen jay. Tomorrow is the beginning of finding success, AGAIN. OH, on a funny note i through up today during my race but ended up 5th for the first time for my team BUT i let a certain somebody smoke me again. COME championship THIS WILL NOT BE ACCEPTABLE. SO i will get him back.

Jam on it People...
everything is coming (like lebron's ring)

Don't Call it a Comeback

I've always been here just in the preferial sense. Anyway, I wanted to publish another entry. Today is gorgeousssssssssssssssssssss...really. It's phenemonal outside. I really hope that the studio session that I have today is FIRE but not too long. I would really like to enjoy this day.

Anyway, ironically when I start blogging again the drama comes in my life again. I'm not going to touch on it though because honestly, positivity is the policy...ya dig! I was furious last night because I was supposeto be in L.I., chillen, vibin to music, with my uncle who's trapped in the depths of Long Island. I missed the train by a minute. ShÍt sucked but it was a blessing in disguise. Chilled with my boy danny and then got decent sleep, just kept being interrupted but hey I got time to rest...I just have to deal with the pressures of school. 10page paper due this thursday. Yea. Exactly. Shit sucks. So I gotta get focused! Lots of research.

I'm sure the above, was written very awkwardly and I apologize for that. I'm just dazed out. But today and this weekend will be great! Let's get it

Jam on it 4 the 4 day weekend

Back 2 To Da...

Schoolbooks.
Late nights.
Sleep deprivation.
Learning.
Hopefully progressing.

Hey yall,

Sorry for the delay. I was suppose to write a few entries that never transpired. If I don't catch the moment that I feel like blogging then I never get to posting something but I wanna finish this month off right and next month even better. Finally listening to "Big Sean's Finally Famous Vol. 3" which I'm going to digest the next few days until it becomes a semi-frequently visited album on my ipod.

Anyway, school started and somehow I chipped my 2nd/3rd tooth? Not cool. Don't know. It's one of my first two front teeth, the left one, right on the bottom, fucking weird. A lot of shit is wierd (I'm spelling the word two ways because honestly I don't remember which one is correct lol,yea B2B (back to business)). My stomach. Basketball. Music. It's like everything goes good fast and with a flip goes back to being strange, which is normalcy.

For those who don't know I started school last thursday. It's been cool so far. I've been early the first 3 days which is a major minor improvement for me. (See what I did there :)) Well everything is going to be coming fast. Essays. Homework. Cross Country and then... Yea the scariest part of the school year BASKETBALL SEASON. It's suppose to be a fun and exciting thing but the problem is I'm gunna be a junior and I don't know if I'm going to be playing let alone if I deserve to be playing. I MEAN, I know. And truley believe that I deserve to play BUT can I prove it to my coaches, teammates, and most importantly to MYSELF and the world that I live in. That's my biggest questionmark. My mentality was/is very different then it was last years, and I won't let that happen but their still a lot I need to improve on. All I have is this last month and a half and then I clock in, and clock out... But do I clock in and underperform? There's a lot of questions.

I don't necessarily look at who I'm better than. I'm looking it like where, how can I help the team, help myself, and also be the best I can on the court. My IQ is good but is my MIND/confidence going to be on point? I guess it's all believing and getting what I KNOW I deserve. So the fire builds.

On to the music,
I was/am planning to drop a CD Oct.1 but I feel like that's really unlikely. I put dates because I want to believe I can find a way to make it. Understand. If I don't then it may NEVER come out. I mean it's been 3 years and I've learned a lot. Been through a lot. I never get cocky because I have so much more to learn but I will be great when the time is right...till then I'm a little above average. Realistically. There's just so much running in my mind. It's like constant anxiety but I've learn how to cope. I do have some really good/interesting joints and I was really excited about this but I think it will turn out good whenever it drops. In terms of MY OWN/ SOLO shit...that will be coming not too short after. I want to do an EP (Jonathan Andrew EP) and the actual mixtape I'm debating between a few titles (as usual). I just hate talking about it with no action. Love yall for listening tho.

So recent events:
Went to turtle bay
End of the summer BBQ
Rock the Bells
Vacation

Well that's all I can think of for now. Look for new entries. Jam on it

The Adventures of My Life...The Overview

Hey wassup yall, I do realize this is late but I just felt the need to really just discuss what has happend in recent weeks. Pretty amazing and productive stuff. I haven't heard anything from jobs, just lies and no interviews. It's hard out here but then again I haven't really been trying much.
These are some other things that have gone on:
I went to virgina
My heart has been torn (not necessarily in a negative way but between 3 things, experience, the woman I love, and the woman who maybe, slowly stealing my heart without knowing it..wild stuff)
A friend of mine just turned 21
Another friend went to the poorest country on this side of the world
I have spent countless days not excersing, hanging out, doing the regular push-up/crunch routine, staying in (a little), spending my time with two girls, and I forget what else.
I tried a cookie monster
Went to the pool...twice (gasp)
Been to the studio :) (recorded 5 new records)
Went to a club
Went to a house party or two
Went to a couple bbq
I also been trying to write, re-focus, play ball andddd save money (finally).

Today, my ipod just got wiped out (fuck life) and I'm going to create a simple t-shirt to along with the music I'll be creating. I'm trying to read at least 3 books this summer, I'm almost done with the first one.

I'm sorry for the randomness/not making sense of this entry...it was to get something off my chest but that won't be happening because instead I'm going to get ready for a productive day tomorrow (and re-doing my resume (hopefully) again). I just wanna say I wish, I could experience (kinda) and have the girl of my dreams but life doesn't work that way. I also wish I could stop being a pussy...grrrr. Muscially/ball wise and socially. I'm a fun person...I think?? Its alright. Just loving life or trying to focus on a life that I will ABSOLUTELY love.

Jam on it!

Fresh Off The Mind...

I'm scared to go away
With you...
Again
It has been so long
That it feels like it happend in a past life
A life before the "new" me

I'm scared to go away
Because
I remember the joy of packing with high expectations
But the misery of the stay- unhappy sleep
Listening to the fall of tears
From missing an old boyfriend
And a sharp cyringe needle
Injected into the soul of my heart
From YOUR NEED to find another path
With new, stronger, older lovers
Who I,
With my little wit and knowledge of life
Are no match for, the fire evaporating
Intro the darkness of my future

I'm scared to go away
With you...
Honestly
Cause I am scored with humilation
A burnt body, withering away
Combined with paralysis
In a crowd full of models
Who can stand on two feet
Such lucky veterbres

Guess I'm not a real man
Not real enough for you
Yet you make it a strong point
To come crawling back
With such a shocking epiphany
When you've seen the land
Where physcality, business and big penis' rule society
Apologies because I don't belong
I'm distant from that world
Where you belong

I don't know if it is finished but I really love this poem.

The Bryant Files Part 1: The Arrival

Me and my friends are on our way to Bryant University in Rhode Island, should be a pretty dope experience. It should be a very interesting weekend. It is the first I've ever went away with my friends so it's cool BUT I feel weird for some reason. It's strange. I'm excited and homesick. The car ride is about 3 hrs and we are 20mins away. I can't wait to see a "real" college but I'm tired and just being a punk. Blah. I'm happy and not at the same time. I just felt like this was a bad to go but I don't know. Hopefully I can clear my mind. I feel like I left everything in new york. It's strange but I'm glad I was invited and didn't act like my "old depressed" self and stay in New York. I guess it's time to take risk. I feel like something's missing though. I got into a few big arguements with poeple I love, care about, etc. So maybe that's it. Feel like this are wishy washy and over but whatever. Time to be a "real man." I gotta do hw and write some music and fucking sleep. I'll be updating the weekend, frequently.

Hope yall are enjoying rocking with me and like the new entries. Things are coming along and I'm happy about that. The sun's beaming. Time to let the sun dictate my mood and smile.

Jam on it...

And for once it's not hip-hop but I may post at least one lol.

(A voice in my head asks me how my day was)
Well my day was pretty good. My jumpshot was broke! I missed 4 free throws in a row. And then shot 2/3. Two days ago I was 10/10 and I airballed a three pointer. Rough day shooting yet I played Defense n still hit a couple shots. Idk my wrist/follow through felt wierd and I felt wierd. Like I was thinking about it but it was in my head. Idk. I got a game tomorrow and it's not gunna be like that :) tomorrow is the best chance I'll play and play a lot more than a minute and thirty seconds so in the words of jae millz...leggggooooo

Also I saw the "Book of Eli" I missed the beginning of the movie. I didn't really understand the concept,point, or any of the underlining messages in the film but it was pretty cool. I just been dying to see a movie. Like literally dying but money is getting loooowwwww (uh-oh) so I might have to chill with the chillen.I gotta focus on school, making music, and playing ball n working. My next job destination is WHOLE FOODS or a sneaker store. Time to switch things up...seriously.

Anyway, speaking of music, I got this free beat tape (unfortunately nothing exclusive lol but still no complaining from me) from the.homie Hannibal. Had some good convos with him last couple nights. Pretty cool to actually talk to a guy I don't really know but feel like I know him and talk music and what not. Also I been talking to my uncle a lot more and a few other people and that's been pretty cool. I miss Mike (my uncle although he's more like my older brother along with DV). I look up to him for some wierd reason and I think I understand him more than ever although I do disagree with some stuff he says, I know it's in everybody's best interest.

Well I'm a go until I feel like blogging again. Sorry for the short entries and lack there of...just I don't know. Things go by fast on vacation. Hope everybody's doing well. Just to add one last thought: "I wonder if my family reads this or what they would think if they did" supposedly my aunt knows my blog like html and reads it from time to time but I guess it doesn't really matter because most of the time, actually 98 percent of the time what I say is fact. Literally FACT plus my interpreations of situations I personally go through so what they can say? Maybe my truths will help them and other people find theirs. Cause we all need to see a little more light in our lives, including myself. It's a very self-relieving thing, when your eyes are opened to things you never thought about.

Anywho, you all get Jam's love...and nothing less.

Frustrated...

The same thing that brings you up, brings you down
It's like a drug the way it comes back around
The same thing you love, is the same thing you hate
It makes my heart ache, feels like Kuwait,
wondering if i have any more patience to wait...

That's kind of, how I'm feeling on this subject of "music."

I've said this time and time again. Music is my life. It will ALWAYS be but it's just an extremely frustrating thing for me. It heals my soul but damages my hope. It's wicked. Like my son, little brother Trevor yesterday was like "me and my boy were listening to this song and i was like who the hell is this, i know it isn't drake or kanye, so when i checked i was like "Jam Young." That was probably your best song." I laughed of course. But was pretty flattered that people at least kind of recognized me. I don't want to have a whole conversation on this BECAUSE i have discussed with a couple people and over and over and over and over and OVER in my head. So i'm just going to keep music without getting frustrated although deep down i am. That's probably why i have no confidence in it but i know this is what i want to do sooo like basketball i continue on...on to my mission...and on to the next one. I'm hopefully going to be going to the studio and having at least ONE writing session this week. (please hannibal lol)

SO i'm sorry for the long awaited post. MORE to come...

Quick Post

What's good guys. My eyes are starting to hurt. Been up procrastinating on my work. So sad. I feel like a dissappointment even though in other areas i'm gaining a little confidence and what not. Tomorrow night i'm going to the studio after i go to RFK, for the fourth time this week. Crazy, I KNOW. I hope i'm not a loser. I just inspire people in the building and that inspires me. It's like a reminder of what i was and what i can be it's strange. Today i practiced with the boys and i thought it was a better practice and more productive then the one on monday. I got stronger (thanks Mulstay) and showed these young boys HOW it's done. :) yes i'm a big boy now lol.

I also ended up staying for the girls game. Didn't plan to stay for the whole thing but kinda glad i did. I saw an old friend of mine, who just so happens to be the coach. She did a terrific job and so did the girls. I think a couple of them took my advice AND hers and definitely did much better, which is a PLUS. Made me feel OLD and SMART... so this is what it feels like to get older lol. I don't want to be 20 yet, so let me just enjoy the rest of 2009, while i still can.

FYI i have off this week but have some MAJOR work to do. OH god please give me the strength to get it done. Today was my work day and i didn't do shit. FUCK. i'm getting fustrated again and after all the positive.

Just wanna say let's go trev and let's go me for the music session. I GOT to post up my article that was published on an online paper. I'll explain later. Hope people are still reading this and checking up on me. It's always well appreciated. TRUST ME.

Later

I Hope The Music Is Coming...

Self-explanatory...
