Success is that place in the road where opportunity and preparation meet but too few people recognize it because too often it comes disguised as hard work!"
All i ask is for LOYALTY, HONOR, RESPECT AND TRUST...also we keep a professional approach to this cuz its a business and ive put alot into it. the rap is the easy part.... the grind is what seperates us from the world.
1.) u cannot help everyone and work with everyone cuz it doesnt always benefit u and too many mouths at the table makes the plates u eating off look smaller
2.) continue to approach music with the attitude that YOURE THE BEST and u wanna stay there. u should always write every verse as if its the ONE that represents u. if someone says go to number 8 on ur cd u gotta be able to justify why u did that and be confident its just as good as number 1 on there....
3.) stay in ur lane, its always competitive with everyone, wanna be the best but dont get outside ur element...do you and let others in the group do them.... but if u feel something could be better SAY IT. we dont want NO GARBAGE!!! cuz we all represent eachother.
4.) M2 is a family and we gone treat eachother as such. support and stay in contact with eachother. EVERYONE. unity takes us further and communication is key.... No ONE person is above the others. we're all kings and queens and THE BEST.
5.) know ur history.... know the label, know whats going on, know the goals of the movement, acknowledge and support ideas that are beneficial not only to yourself but to others.
6.) keep bullshit and trouble at a distance.... why hustle hard for the success and money just to give it up to jail or death!!? we all hood but this is bigger than that..... professionlism is key. we gone hit the streets with heat, rep the streets to the fullest and still be street but we gotta be able to eat at the same table with the suits and ties!!!
7.) every track think single!!! dont rush anything. perfect your craft. help others. and remember there are 3 verses on every song, sometimes only 2... everyone cant be on everything LOL.
8.) promote and network as much as possible on every level. from the internet to the world. we need everyone, the hood rats, chicken heads, mamas, daddy's, grandma's whoever. if they talk, talk back!!! treat them as if they are family. let them know whats going on. keep them updated. converse.... u need ya fans and supporters. ugly or beautiful. lol... preferred beautiful i know! lol
9.) dont make moves on some solo shit!!! u r ALWAYS FREE TO USE WHATEVER PRODUCER, ARTIST, OR WHATEVER U WANT JUST DONT GET ON NO RENEGADE SHIT!!! AFTER ALL... THE 10TH RULE IS....
10.) DEATH BEFORE DISHONOR!!!!

"If you allow yourself to be vulnerable in your music, people will feel it a lot more. But a lot more people will also hate it or mock it. It's almost like a deal with the devil, but I'm happy to take that deal. It doesn't feel right to me to sing about stuff I don't believe in."
