*NOTE* IN THE NEXT TWO MONTHS OR SO I WILL BE PUTTING UP TWO MORE SINGLES... THEY ARE "GLAD WE HAD" AND "HOW"... IF WHILE THOSE ARE UP, THERE IS STILL A HUGE LACK OF VISITS AND SUPPORT, THIS PAGE WILL BE SHUT DOWN... THE MUSIC I MAKE ISN'T ONLY FOR ME, IT'S FOR ANYBODY OUT THERE WHO ENJOYS IT AND BETTER YET CAN RELATE TO IT... HYPHY MUSIC MAY BE THE "IN" THING RIGHT NOW AND I KNOW FOR MANY PEOPLE, LOVE SONGS HAVE BECOME PLAYED OUT, BUT THE SIMPLE FACT IS THAT THE MUSIC I WRITE ALWAYS HAS TO DO WITH REAL LIFE SITUATIONS, WHETHER I'VE BEEN IN THEM OR I KNOW I CAN RELATE... SO THIS MUSIC IS FOR EVERYBODY... I JUST HOPE THAT PEOPLE OUT THERE CAN SEE WHEN THERE'S ACTUAL TIME, EFFORT, AND MOST OF ALL HEART PUT INTO AN ARTIST'S MUSIC... THAT'S WHAT YOU'LL FIND ON THIS PAGE ALL THE TIME... MOST OF MY TIME, PATIENCE AND EFFORT GOES INTO MY MUSIC... THIS ISN'T TO COMPLAIN, BUT JUST TO OPEN PEOPLE UP TO THIS FACT, I RECORDED 'TIL DEATH DO US PART WHILE SICK WITH A 103 DEGREE FEVER... SO IF YOU CAN'T CALL THAT EFFORT, LOVE, AND DEDICATION, THEN I DON'T KNOW WHAT ELSE YOU HAVE TO SAY OR THINK... SIMPLY REMEMBER THAT MY MUSIC ISN'T SOMETHING FOR ONLY ME TO ENJOY... IT'S FOR ANYBODY WHO LIKES MUSIC ABOUT REAL LIFE SITUATIONS AND ESPECIALLY FOR ANYONE WHO CAN RELATE TO WHAT I WRITE... PLEASE TAKE THE TIME TO REALIZE HOW IMPORTANT THIS MUSIC IS TO ME... IT'S NOT MY CAREER... IT'S MY LIFE...
