It aint about dodgin rain drops, but smilin’ soakin wet: Goodtimes Regardless Defined:
No matter what you achieve in this life, there will always be another obstacle, sometimes multiple obstacles to overcome. I feel like people have been fooled by themselves and others to believe if they try hard enough they can get ahead their problems and in the race to "get ahead" they leave behind all that really matters, the moment, the opportunity, the loved ones,
...Goodtimes Regardless is there to remind and encourage you to live now and keep you aware as to not letting to much time slip by while ya out there on ya grind. Crazy world, crazy times, crazy people, it's all crazy, and to be honest, it might be that for our whole lives. So what cha gonna do?- Whatever ya can I guess, but after that dont guess, cuz whatever this life is, its still worth somethin, so fuk it, take whats left and celebrate like it'll be gone tomorrow. Then if tomorrow comes, you can go on back to stressin, a little stress is alright, there's issues out there worth stressin. It ain't ALL smiles... But it ain't all frowns neither... Goodtimes Regardless.
You got it..
I also wanted to say, I got this quote from my main homeboy Big Yantz. Much Respect to
my big brother from a bigger storm than I kno.
ALSO- I would like to announce the New Song in the works:
CAN'T DODGE THE RAIN.. aka Smilin Soakin Wet.
DEDICATED TO: (YOU GUESSED IT)
BIG MUTHA FUKIN YANTZ!!
This song is the foundation that Goodtimes Regardless stands on-
YOU CAN'T HAVE GOODTIMES REGARDLESS WITHOUT SMILIN SOAKIN WET-
Stay tuned- I'd give a release date but I dont rush nuthin I wanna do right- And I'm gonna nail this one-
WHO THE HELL IS JUNKYARD?!
MUSICAL BACKGROUND: I'm more of a songwriter than anything, Never really had any shooling musically, I just try to solidify a vision. Used ta be all rap & keyboards, first track recorder was two boomboxes facin each other wit me in the middle, that was thirteen years ago, three and a half years ago I picked up a guitar,now Im a lefty playin righty with a hand full of one inch long acrylic fingernailz.
I love blues, soul, rock, funk, hip-hop, I love music of all styles - every music has its soul you just gotta listen.
IT'S IMPORTANT to me that people know what I mean when I say "Junkyard".
Simply put, it's something outta nothing, in all ways. Like the broken computer I record on, the orphan instruments I look after, and most importantly, the music I pull out of myself when I was considered the "nothing". So the term is close to my heart.
It's like a blind faith in the outcasted underdog type-a-thinkin. McGraw comes from the cartoon character Quick Draw, who took over America, yeah, put it together.
ALL I WANT is to make music for the people. No bullsh!t included. And I want yall ta luv it like nuthin else-let me know . The first batch is good times club shit. It represents only a part of me musically & personally. Honestly I think I got something for everybody. I just gotta get it to ya. In the meantime tell me what cha think. As the material solidifies, things will be spread out. I got a few extra tracks floatin round the page already...
TO THA PEOPLES: Thank you to everybody who put me in their top friends or threw some of the music on their page much luv. And to anybody diggin the vibe, help me out-Im tryin ta plug in! Throw me up on ya page, let the music play, tell a friend ta do the same. Know ya boy needs ya. All these artists talkin all that shit about all they money and status -WOULDNT BE SHIT- without the peoples. I just wanna get it ta give it back to ya.
Goodtimes Regardless-It's on yall
Hit Me-
(Deep shit starts now)
You can't resist anything because you are one with everything. So if you resist anything you can only truly resist yourself...
HOW TO FIND YOUR PURPOSE
Talents + passion. When you find yourself really workin for nothing(money wise), you might have found something. At least a clue. The puzzle is getting to know who and what you really give a damn about. The hardest part for me was accepting how much I really do give a damn, as, humanity is my passion. Music is my primary talent and the message is my purpose. Also worth mentioning that passion and emotion COULD all derive from some form of love, so love could more truly be the factor over passion. Which is why I can only sum my passion up as a love for the people and a perspective for peace. If thats true then everybody might have the same purpose after they completely strip their passions to the root. Talent and it's application is all that may separate us within purpose.
HISTORY & EVOLUTION
This is the quick version. Go a million years ahead. Visualize a future you cant comprehend. A place where science seems like magic and man has learned how to survive himself. Imagine the universe and how far we've spread, and now the point.
Sit there and look back on our time. Now, ask yourself. Just how evolved were we way back in 2000-what ever the fuk? We're a bunch of cavemen still beatin each other over the head for a better cave. Pretending like we know more than we do because we dont wanna be wrong. Acting like were at our peak because we dont want to admit were less evolved than the children of TODAY, let alone tomorrow or a 1000 years. Can you comprehend a million? Can you imagine a day with teleports? Where your best best best friend might live in... IRAQ, and you can be 10000 miles away and still hang out after work and go out on the weekends? Then how would you feel when the bombs drop?
I dont stress though, it all just means were still young as a PEOPLE. Were evolving each day. Science shrinks the world each SECOND by providing faster means of travel, the children are smarter at a younger age. I look to them and I truly believe in evolution. With that understanding, can make some sense of the injustices of the world. I dont expect to see the "better day". I believe it'll come. I dont have to be here for it. I think in terms longer than my lifetime. I dont have to live forever but I hope these views carry on-
*** This understanding is the key to peace in a world of unnecessary violence, injustice, and inconsideration... WE ARE STILL YOUNG AS A PEOPLE... AND WE FIGHT FOR CHILDISH REASONS... ..One last thing on the subject that may simplify and further prove truth: WE HAVEN'T EVEN DEVELOPED A UNIVERSAL LANGUAGE FOR OUR PLANET YET!! I FEEL LIKE THATS A DEAD GIVE AWAY TO OUR AGE AS A PEOPLE. We, as a whole, are still learning to speak.. and I feel at peace just knowing that much.
THE TOUGHEST PEOPLE IN THE WORLD:
Are not those who can inflict the most damage or destroy the hardest to kill, these things have no bearing on anything. The toughest are those who endure the pain willingly... for a reason, most often for those you care about.
He who inflicts pain and suffering... Is a WEAKLING in the light of he who endures DAILY for their peoples. I admire all those taking the scars for theirs. I furthermore, commend all those enduring the pain with a smile, concealing all you go through for those around you so THEY don't feel so bad. That is a true the badassss-
MY FATHER- is the baddest ass I've ever encountered. I will never know how much he has truly endured for me n my lil sis- As he has been there every step of the way, in every way. Never putting himself or ANYTHING else first. Never expecting anything back. NEVER. NEVER.
My Father is truly where I've learned the definition of family. COMPREHENDED, the concept of truly caring.
" It's not about how people treat you on your birthday, but the other 364 days that it really means something" - BIG AL ( the BADDEST ASS I know)
