A Long Time Coming



What up world,

Optimistic, extremely nervous and excited. After the getting word that my debut album is finally completed, my emotions are at an all time high. I have been making this album for a while. I would say atleast three to four years. Battling with the highs and lows of staying dedicated to this project was a great turning point. Driven by inspiration of day to day life from old records, politics, love, religion, personal situations, reality, fantasy, heartache, doubt and hope. These are the things that push me to write what I write. Even with wrtiers block constantly aorund the corner, that pressure creates good music. I can actually hear the growth artistically between tracks, which in itself is an accomplishment. With that said I am my worst critic, so improvement will always be on my "to do" list. My debut is of course of my baby and my introduction to the world. Giving birth to my thoughts, ideals, dreams, everything that is that shapes and molds my character. Even when my direction and focus changes artistically, the music is still the same...from the heart, nothing less.

I am very excited to put this out there, no matter what the repsonse is, I'm proud of it. And I could never forget about my partner in crime, my fam, my homie Al Dumaurier who not only produced and mixed the whole project but also blessed several tracks with his verses. I love the chemistry musically. A truly gifted producer that is definitely on the come up and who is going to open up doors for his peeps too. Major props to him. He also got a couple dope albums out, Soundtrack to Life and Wreckonception. Check them out here at the site. Bamboo Shack Music

Also I thank God for the favor He has given me and the countless opportunites to make a difference whether its through music or just life in general. Its a tremendous comfort and blessing knowing that I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.
So Be on the look out
Between the Lines lp coming very soon.....sooner then you think
Its been a long time coming indeed.

Peace and Blessings.
