More Than Music, I Want A Movement

I was talking with my brother the other day when we began to fight and the idea of me not "grinding" like a rapper or not being "hard" was thrown in the air...these 2 statements stuck a cord with me because I never claimed to be either...I said I'm not hard never have been and never will be...and I'm not a rapper...I really try to erase the term rapper from being attached to my name...the reason being is not because I'm against rap or even because I wanna have some sort of gimmick, but rather because I feel that calling yourself a "rapper" is just another form of placing a label on you...placing yourself in a box to be held inside those tiny 4 walls that make up the genre rap...

If you think I'm crazy, just say the phrase I rap to someone and watch the look on there face...if there young then they may show interest...but if there older then watch the look of disgust...also I feel like when you say the phrase "I rap" it sets up and expectation and for many they don't wanna hear it because let's face it most I would say 90% of rappers all speak on the same things...my music on the other hand is not confined to "rap" its really all over the place, its heavily based around what I listen to daily and that's all types of genres...so I don't correction I won't allow myself to be boxed in to a cell that dictates what I can do musically...

My first official single off my album is gonna be released on tuesday and I can't really wait...I'm excited to see how many people will support my music...this is a very big leap for me...I've always lacked a sense of confidence, I've always been so insecure and afraid of releasing my music to the masses but not anymore...I'm making a stand. The album that I have created is incredible...I set out on a mission and I accomplished that mission...and this first single "Alright" is marking the beginning of what I hope will be a movement...on tuesday I want all of you to go purchase the song, take a risk its only a dollar but your support will let me know how soon to unleash all the other music that I have to offer...please show your allegiance to an idea let's all pursue happiness

Dedication To Perfection

People to often aim lower than perfection...its a known fact in todays society that we can never obtain perfection but does that mean we should never strive for it? Never fight for it? Never dream of a perfect world? A perfect album or a perfect performance...I say reaching for perfection is what keeps the human race alive... Think about it...we try and create perfect machine everyday, cars, ipods, computers and with the continued search of perfect our technology gets better and better...

So as I prepare to present my first official album...entitled "The Pursuit Of Happiness" (inspired by a state of mind I'm in, ill explain this more in a totally different post)...I wanna make sure that its perfect...I don't wanna any song to be a down point, or to be boring or of less quality than any other...

The performance at the forum theatre on august 13th was an incredible moment in my life...although my performance was short (not of my choice) the reception was incredible...I gave that show my all for the first time ever I let myself go...I allowed my true spirit to be seen...and the response was incredible...I was so humbled and inspired by the way people reacted to my music...I did so many songs from the album and people really felt it related to it and supported it...that's major! I got a great ovation after my set was over and not a single person could speak negatively of me...I'm just honest...

So I debuted my first single and people really responded incredible...they loved it! So today I will be posting it for stream only! Let me know if yall like it what yall think of it and then I will post it on itunes next tuesday for you all to buy! I really wanna start a movement...I am a man of the people...I am no better than the next man I am just a man blessed and wanna use my gifts to create art for all people...music we all can relate to! So support me, support my music...suggest my artist page to your friends spread the word! I'm working on the album more, other projects, other songs, trust me I am not slacking just a silent assassin...to all of my supporters I ask for your feeedback let me know what yall think about the music I am making...let me know how you feel or concepts for songs you think I should make concepts for mixtapes or beats youy wanna hear me on...thank you all for your support I love and appreciate it more than I can say
