Core DJ Retreat x ATL

This trip was amazing. 100% grind. We was only in ATL from fri - sun, but got a WHOLE lot accomplished. We took about 400 copies of tyrone's singles with us (Me & You ft. Young Maine) and we came back with only 2 copies. The core DJ retreat was packed. I met a lot of very important people out there (i.e. Representatives for UGK Records, Ace Hood, Director of Marketing for Interscope, Akon, Wendy Day, etc.) Inside of tyrone's singles cases was my HF flyer, my business card, B.O.E.'s flyers, and Brightwood Ent flyers. Out there I was also able to squeeze in a photoshoot with 5 of the Envy Models on the rooftop of the Hilton Hotel in downtown ATL. We also chilled in Ruffchild Studio where B.O.E. recorded two hot tracks. Pictures from the weekend are coming soon, and maybe even some video footage ;)

Late Night Blogging x Brightwood Ent

Its 4:30am, I'm listening to Marky's "Nothing is 43ver" Mixtape (DC Rapper, check it out, hot mixtape). Me & Tyrone(Brightwood Ent) been puttin in work all night getting ready for this Core DJ Event out in ATL this weekend. We're gonna be pushing his single & his mixtape hard! (Rydah Muzik mixtape drops june 1st). Website, photoshoots, flyers, myspace, you name it, this fool already past out. I'm about to drive home but felt like blogging...memorable moment I guess. Shows how much we grind...and when we work together on things the grind is two times easier. Its all coming together though. I worked all day long (at my "normal" job) & he had a 4hr drive back from Indianapolis, and I have to be awake at 10am to go back into work smh.

Vent....
As time passes you see who's real, and who's not quite so true. It sucks especially when that person thats not so true is in ur inner circle. I learned in church that if you clear the clutter out of your life that things flow a lot easier. This is true...as far as everything, I was just coasting...smooth sailing...til some more BS popped up. Lol my friends thats around me daily already know what I will say..."ITS NOTHING TO MEHHHH!" lol, keep moving, keep grindin, stay true...to myself and to the ones close to me.

Meanwhile, Young Holla *cough cough* (Joe Long) has been asked to speak in front of a class of children at a youth center about photography. Man, thats a wonderful thing...see no one understands that I would do that over any concert and event cuz my goal is to influence/inspire others to do something positive. And to everyone that supports me...I promise my talent wont go to waste. So May 22nd, I will be speaking to the kids, don't know what to say...kinda nervous...but I'll be ready when the time comes.

ATL x Street Dept Music x Rivers & Spires

Been a week since my last post, lately I've just been exhausted...still grindin hard as ever, but it catches up to me at times. Umm...first and foremost, happy birthday to lil tatortot lol (Brittny M.) SEE I didnt forget!

This weekend coming up I will be back in Atlanta, GA for the Core DJ's event. Yes, I got my pass to get in! I heard if you don't have a pass its like $300...(my face got real ugly when I heard that like "ewwww" [chris rock face] lmao). But yep I will be there.

I've been on many projects lately, but a big one has been for a label known as Street Dept Music. This one has actually been fun. They are getting everything (logo, website, photoshoots, and business cards). I put up the coming soon to the site (www.streetdeptmusic.com) but it will change soon once I am finished with designing and confirming the logo.

This past weekend, I finally got my new tattoo. Designed by me and tatted up by my artist Jag Rose (www.myspace.com/jrose87om). Some of his best work so far, youngin skills is progressing each day, So the creator of creativity's skills & the tat2 prince's skills come together like Voltron...Check it out....2hrs & 45min...ouch!

Oh yea, I had to make some changes and redraw it for the 3rd time so there are some slight differences cuz this is a photo of the 2nd copy.

St. Lunatics

Yes yes, they're back around again...Nelly went hard on the track. I been a fan since before they blew up, so forget everyone's opinion, they hot.

N.E.R.D. + FUSION the BAND

Its been a lil minute since the last time I posted something, but the last thing I blogged about was the info on the Fusion & NERD event. The entire event was off the chain!!! The energy, the crowd and ALL of the performances were great. Fusion performed better than ever, NERD performed like they was still trying to get recognition as if they didn't have a major deal, and Bottles & Cans [band] also had a great performance as well. Luckily, I was able to be IN FRONT of the FRONT ROW, and got some great shots all night! Check em out!!!

And of course what yall have been waiting for....N.E.R.D.
They performed like they didn't have a record deal. After the event within the media they tried to make pharrell seem like a bad person when he was telling this dude to move back. To clear up the story dude in the crowd was being real dumb, pharrell asked him and EVERYONE else to move back for their safety. Dude wanted to show out and wouldnt listen, Pharrell got frustrated and told him he'd have him removed if he didn't. After performing one song, Pharrell apologized and stated that he wanted everyone to have fun and he was just concerned about everyone's safety and needed everyone to cooperate so the show could continue. Now check out the pics....*cough cough* courtesy of Hollagraphy of course lol...
