I'LL FreEzE ThE sUN. BeLieve Me! Be reaDY 4 ChILLs

About Me

Whatup yall? I'm Cannon. 23 years old holding down NYC. Songwriter/producer/composer/arranger/peformer/actor/emcee/h omie/cool as Glacier/ and many more.(already sounds like a lot right?) Music is my passion! My heartbeat is my metronome, my breathe is my cadence, and my words are my melody. You feel a kick when you check my pulse. I live creating music, singin, rhymin, writin, freestylin, producin, arrangin.
I love readin good books, mostly non fiction, somethin that I can apply to my life so a lot of self-improvement/spirituality books- just that provoke thought. That's the plane that I'm on at the moment-I enjoy being enlightened.I'm always looking to collaborate with other talented Musicians/Songwriters/Producers- specializing in any style of Music. Music is Music, I feel genres are only relevant to the subject of Marketing because its easier to specify the sound or style of Music but anything good is worth listenin to no matter what style of music it is! Mostly on my R&B/Hip-Hop/Pop/Alternative/Soul writing ish nowadays though.
I'm approachable, high energy, down-to-earth, mutable if its necessary to my growth, funny (I'ma wild boy), a great listener, balanced (so I can be serious to).I enjoy things with substance, and then enjoy buggin the hell out too- as well.
I'm one of the most icicle mofo's around the Globe, ya chill me? Cool as a glacier- frosty as an avalanche! I'm always trying to learn something new, so put me on if you think you can. I'm very mature for my age, but I'm no prude. I get my boogie on too as well, I'm actually I'm told I'm damn pretty good at it (Wanna Battle Sucka????) Let's take it to da floor on some "You Got Served" type ish. & Oh yeah...PC!!!! W.W.B. Be on the look out...
My Squad The Hip Hop Project!!

(Russell Simmons, Jay-Z, Kevin Lyles). I would like to meet L.A. Reid, Andre Harrell, Sean Combs, Lyor Cohen, Quincy Jones, Berry Gordy.

Musicians I would love to meet/Collaborate with are:

But ooooooo I'm supposed to be talking bout who I wanna meet on myspace right? Aight, just anyone who's passionate, empathetic, spontaneous, reserved, funny/hilarious, creative, motivated, intelligent, deep and just plain cool. I'm a very non judgemental dude. It doesn't matta what you are but who you are with me. Always interested in meeting anyone who's spirtiual and partakes in any form of spirituality. I loved be to enlightened, so any good reads or events you know goin on feel free to put me on. Anyone who's into the Arts, ESPECIALLY MUSIC is cool by me. I would definitely wanna meet/collaborate with any talented singers/songwriters,(all genres welcome) Musicians, Producers, Hip-Hop Artist/Mc's. Definitely feel free to hit me up and friend me and let's build.

Last but not least I would definitely love to meet/see my mother again. I don't know how many of you reading this are familiar with losing someone that you love, but there's just a huge void that forms in your life that you just try so hard to fill. You kinda also know that its impossible and that you have to become content with that. But you gotta also know that when you love someone so much that their loving spirit will never leave you. But living in this world the things that we can't see aren't real to us, but you can't lose sight of what's real. Im gonna do my best at leading a very fufilling life to the fullest, and when my days are done I hope that I'll see you again mom in UTOPIA!

I know I wrote a lot but that's just me. I'm elaborate. Now you get the jist of who I am, so just holla breezy. As long as you don't have any messed up or crazy incentives outside of a cool rapport/friendship then everything's a go!

Music:

See "About Me".... Anything good, rangin from Michael Jackson to Buena Vista Social Club. I listen to Hip-Hop, R&B, Jazz, Latin, Soul, Funk, Alternative, Electronic, Rock, New Age, Blues, House, Jungle, anything I think sounds good pretty much.

Movies:

Anything thought-provoking, funny, action-packed, mysterious, mushy but not corny, and entertaining. I've got my favorites though so holla.

Television:

Family Guy, 6 Feet Under, X-Men, Discovery Health Channel, Seinfield, Curb Your Enthusiasm, Surreal Life, Who's Line Is It Anyway, Entourage, OZ, BOXING, BaSKETBALL, MTV's My Own, MTV's NExT, In Living Color, Sex and the City, Real Time with Bill Maher, Def Poetry, The Boondocks, The Simpsons, Charmed (My Little sister got me into this show) The Adventures of Jimmy Neutron, Fairy Oddparents, (don't laugh but) Degrassi (somethin bout this show is entertaining lol) Don't really get to watch TV too often though.

Books:

The Power of Now by Eckart Tolle, COnversations with God, Whoreson by Donald Goines, Love Is A Secret by Andrew Vidich, The 48 Laws of Power by Robert Greene, The Art of Seduction by Robert Greene,(I believe his books are evil in a sense- because the tactics are dishonest, sometimes cruel and wicked. It's a good read though and good to learn so you can avoid these concepts of mind manipulation) Daddy Cool by Donald Goines, Behold a Pale Horse, The Seat of The Soul.

anything to do with history, politics/equal rights, music, spirituality/enlightenment, liberation,revolution, I'm into it! Holla if you suggest any good piece of literature.

Heroes:

Anyone who has strived for progess in this world. Inspires, and does what moves them. A selfless, heartfelt, individual. There are a lot of heroes. It's just not every hero has received the right amount of recognition.

Heroes are anyone from Martin Luther & Corretta Scott King, Malcom, Muhammad Ali, Michael Jackson, Stevie Wonder, Bono, Ray Charles, Lou Rawls, My Grandmother! or yours. It's whoever you feel is deseverin of that title. You can be a hero, just decide what it is you wanna do and follow through with it, and be relentless. Don't eva quit.My Numba One Hero! R.I.P. I love you mommy I'll catch up with you on the other side whenever my time is done on this Earth. THANK YOU 4 ME, AND THANK GOD 4 U! I LOVE YOU ALWAYS! Mother's Day & EVERYDAY
