Damn i really didn't know just how demanding this rap game was when you get a good foot in the damn door. Im swamped with beats that need to be completed and awaiting instructions to fly out to florida a.s.a.p... I have to have like 10 tracks completed here by the next week or so and be ready to re-record them in the studio once i get there lol. Shows, interviews, i think they want to discuss shooting a video, and whatever else they gonna have me doing. Anyways im not complaining im just realy f*cking stressed out by all of this, i feel like my head is drained of creativity every other hour from writing so damn much. Well thats all i had to say for now though, whats up R/F what does everyone think about the industry if your in it or planning to get in it? What are your concerns and feelings about getting into the game? Oh yeah the one thing that sucks now is i can't do anymore collabs unless it goes through my label and gets approved and that means it has to be paid work, so i have to be paid to do a feature unless im paying someone else to be on a feature who is already in the game, its kinda gay but i guess thats the way it is.

Ya unfortunately now, which is kinda scary for me, is i had to quit my job yesterday, because i once i gave my boss my crazy (music) schedule for the next couple of months, he said they wouldn't be able to work around that. So he said the best thing to do is resign, so thats what i did. The label said don't worry about it. But ya i just laced a hook for a joint i got rudely aweken to at 1am this morning by the producer. He said he needed me to lace it a.s.a.p so i did it and they liked it, so when i go down there to orlando they gonna have me redo it and put a t-pain box(v-coder) on the hook, and they want to shoot a music video lol.
