A message to myspace peeps
I had to add this after the fact since I noticed what was going down. If you send me a friend request, drop a message along with it so I know what you're about. Most (but not all) of my "friends", really are my friends or heads I've met / spoken with before in person. I don't need anonomous people trying to get down with as many people as possible. I'd like for heads to listen 2 my tracks, enjoy a mix from my website and leave a comment. At least say "wasssup" to a brotha. Respect!

I'd like to meet
positive people doing their thing, musicians, producers, soulful vocalist, creative vibrations, those who want to collab on musical projects, those who share similar interests, other parents who are following the voice of their soul by pursuing their love for music & art, all heads open to endless possibilities!!!
