Man, there is no doubt it summer time in Texas. Already with the 100 degree temps – got me feeling like an old man in this heat. But, I just got back from the pool and then promptly proceeded to Lee’s BBQ to down a chopped brisket sandwich. So, we’ll call it even. And, I’ve been blessed to stay busy this summer. As usual I’m steady DJing private events and parties. Holler at me anytime – check the contact page. Let’s party.
The studio work has been relentless as well. As you’ve seen before I’m working on an album with a cool guy, emcee Paradox. My beats and his raps are all recorded at this point. We are getting all the guest artist finished up right now. So far we have guest appearances by: Freddie Bruno, Playdough, Sivion, Sintax (of Deepspace 5), JustMe & Wonder Brown (of SI), Braille, Griffin, Relic, IZK (of Blunt Force Crew), & Sammy Blaze. The record should be done and available by August of this year.
I’m finishing up a mixing and mastering project for Sean Little. I think he’s still keeping that project quiet – so I’ll leave it at that.
I just finished recording scratches on a few dope songs. The first is with, the always live, Bodega Brovas. Man, these guys have been putting out a lot of dope music lately. I’m really happy to do another song with them. This one is produced by producer extraordinaire J.Rhodes. I’ll post when it drops.
The other songs are for an album by JustMe and Jaq (of Scribbling Idiots). Again, I’m blessed to be working with these guys. The joints have that true hip-hop essence. Look for me to post those too.
Also, I’m about to start on a mixtape with Heath McNease called Nintendo Thumb. He teamed up with one of gritty hip-hop’s finest producers, For Beat’s Sake. Peep the leak at Sphereofhiphop.com, which features Playdough and ManChild.
Lastly, I’ll leave you with this. Playdough’s video for “Ya Heard” directed & shot by Teddy Cool (Blue Pill Entertainment). It’s been getting some great press all over the net. Check it out at CMJ.
See how many times you can spot my bucket head in the video. Send me an email with the count and I’ll hook up a free album. 🙂
