Moving Forward

In life it's never really about what knocks you down or stops you from doing what you want. It is only how you respond that matters.
In my last post I outlined the disappointment I had experienced from trying to get connected with a producer here in DC. I would like to think that I have bounced back nicely though.
On Saturday I have a recording session with a producer named Bash from 10am-1pm.
On Monday I have a recording session with a producer named Jeff from 5:30pm-7:30pm.
Also, my friend and I have decided to put a studio together at his house so I can begin recording tracks on my own time. This will not only be free recording time, high-quality equipment, and trustworthy people- it will also serve to take the skycap off of my creativity. Post-production is almost equally important to your vocals and beats. Only thing is, post-production can get expensive real quick. So having a studio at my own disposal will allow me to put as much post-production effects as i want on my tracks without having to pay a producer or engineer.

I was talking to my friend @Mr_greenwood the other day and I said to him, "The money is in producing!" He shot back a quick text and said, "The money is in being successful."

Long story short it doesn't matter what your dream is, as long as you become the best at whatever you envision. Living is work.

In my words...

i keep my hunger cuz i dont get a second to eat/

im on my grind homie i dont get a minute to sleep/

i neva take a hour jus to lie in the sheets Im flyin over valleys so i can recline on the peaks/
