What does it mean to be an artist with no muse
I make no sounds
I spark no fuse
It makes no sense to be not of use
So ill just lay down or go find a noose.

Or I go find you..

A picture of perfection
If pictures where scarred from life lessons
You're increasing the tension
So I use discretion

why? I cant mention..

You say I said too much
Well here's another example, but life's too tough
To not express what is ample, and rising up
Lust.

What the fuck..

Sparks dwindling down
I need oxygen now
No playing possum, get out before it's rotten but how?
Its too awesome.

Love isn't forgotten..

Its just defrostin
Its just exhaustin

But ill pull through..
For you.

Rehearsal for Black August 8/25

So, me and my lovey band Turnstylz were in rehearsal the other day and decided to add my 80 bar verse "20 Kit Kats 4 the Riff Raff(BRAIN POWER)" to a song I have on my EP with Sciryl Cooper ("The Sun, The Moon & The Stars") called "S&M (Sun&Moon)." Check out the video and keep in mind this was the first time I rapped those bars that fast.. It was intense. Come to the show next thursday to see the real deal go down flawlessly ;)

Kenyans4Kenya



I was watching this and crying for all of the babies, all of the children that have died, all of the children that will die and all of the children that will grow up with no parents because of the drought in East Africa. If anyone can donate to this website

Kenyans4kenya.co.ke

please do, have some compassion in you comfy beds, your comfy apartments with your tap water and 24 hour grocery stores for the people that have none of those things but have heart, and have walked, some for 30 days to refugee camps and had to leave siblings and children and parents dead in their tracks because there was nothing that they could do. I see their emaciated bodies and all I can think of is HOW CAN I HELP? WHY DO I FEEL SO HELPLESS?

Maybe I can get some artists to volunteer to do a benefit concert with me and we'll donate all the proceeds to Kenyans4Kenya. Would anyone be interested in this? If you are a promoter, if you own a venue, if you are a performer and you'd be down for something POSITIVE and MEANINGFUL like raising money to help people who are in greater need than yourself, please hit me.

Just him and his guitar

I had to add this one too. It's amazing what can happen online. To have someone like this hit me up and ask to collab-I get SO MUCH BULLSHIT aimed at my head on FB for this to fall into my hands like this just seems kismet. I mean I get asked to collab so much on FB and the majority of the time I don't really listen to the music because I'm all for letting music happen organically. I knew Sciryl for a year and did shows with him and chilled and bonded with him before we released a project together. There's something to that. Making music with people you have a connection with. That's how music should be done so it's almost against my religion to collab with someone I know nothing about and never had any human contact with.. But this guy, yo.. We had a talk and I found out he's a libra AND Jimi Hendrix is his idle? I have no doubt in my mind that you will all be hearing a collab from me and dude soon.

Charles Cash Bryant hit me up on facebook..

I been working on my guitar skills back and fourth for a year or so now.. It's seems like every time I get some good quality calluses on my fingertips I plateau, get uninspired and put the guitar down. This dude makes me wanna go pick it back up. Like Righ' now, righ' now.

Pics from the Sol Collective in Sacremento, CA



Just stumbled upon these photos in my computer that I took last year while I was touring with Rebel Diaz and YC The Cynic. They're from this non profit called the Sol Collective which is kind of like the RDAC of the west coast. I remember it being a very chill place and obviously full with lots of art and inspiration. Hope you like the pics!
