Day 10
Day 10 The question is: how many people do I reach? I guess most of us try to reach people, try to be noticed..even appreciated. I can honestly say that i never wanted to get into music for the popularity. I do all of this because i love hip hop with all my heart and that i just dont want to waste any time with being surrounded by anything but what i love. Popularity is a perk…but its a curse at the same time.. the more popular u get, the more ppl envy you and the more ppl try to get in your business. To me its more important to know that i reached someone with my work.. that i made a change in hip hop. That i brought real hip hop to ones ipod, airwaves, reminded them that this kind of hip hop alot of ppl claim is dead, is still amongst us, alive and well.
(Median – Strides) I want to open doors for artists who go unnoticed but deserve to be heard because of their undeniable talent. I want to break records. I want to bring balance to the media. Want to open ears and minds. Make a couple heads happy. Preferably more than a couple. In ten years from now, i want to own a label, where its not about making one hit wonders, but timeless music. Where its not about glamorous videos but substance. I want to run a radio station…balanced out.. that all heads can turn to and listen without hearing the same song 10 times in one day.(J.Dilla – Nothing like this) „There is nothing like this“
Hip Hop has brought out the best in me, and nothing negative ever. It has motivated me, fed my creativity, saved me from depressions, made me LIVE and be ACTIVE instead of letting life pass me by. So my wish is to give back to hip hop as much as i can. To nurture it, to better it. (The Funtouchables – Say Wha?!)
Song of the Day: J.Dilla – Nothing like this … cause i`ve never felt quiet like this!
Day 8
(Blu – Therapy) yeah..so..i slipped up yesterday.. honestly, there wasnt much to talk about.. anyway.. its a new day, and i FINALLY got myself to do another “I still love H.E.R.” podcast episode! its been a looooong time since i did one and i`ve felt bad about it.. I just couldnt do it anymore with the day job and all..well..its a new situtation now and i plan on doing it on the regular again. Tonights episode holds no interview, but alot of DOPE music (u know how i do ;-P).. So check it out:

So what else has been up? I signed up for a music account on myspace for Blackreign & Ohkang (the group i manage), not that they didnt have one before (myspace.com/blackok) but i set this one up for overseas connects (Blake Eerie – Like a rock), which means i set the location to germany and will contact potential fans from germany and then other european countries.. this is also something i recommend to artists tryin to get recognized overseas.. this way the european contacts dont get lost in the huge friendslists that we all have nowadays.
I`ve also been in touch with alot of djs over here lately and they all love Blackreign&Ohkangs music, so i have no doubt they will be successful over here in due time.. (Clipse – I`m not you)
i`m starting to worry a lil bit about how i will pull this whole thing off.. when i will start seeing results..(C-Rayz Walz – Elephant Guns)..
how many of you have thought about leaving the save path and actually went for your dream? how many of you made it and how many failed?
