BE THANKFUL EVERYDAY
EARTHA KITT R.I.P
"Never neglect the little things. Never skimp on that extra effort, that additional few minutes, that soft word of praise or thanks, that delivery of the very best that you can do. It does not matter what others think, it is of prime importance, however, what you think about you. You can never do your best, which should always be your trademark, if you are cutting corners and shirking responsibilities. You are special. Act it. Never neglect the little things."

ATTACK OF THE AUTO-TUNES / RETURN OF THE VOCODER
it started in Euro House / techno and trickled through R&B to clean up imperfections vocal wise so there's no bad notes , but done slightly to where you wouldnt tell ...now it's on to Hip Hop where it's becoming a staple of Hip Hop Hits and basically it has to be displayed for what it is that nothing subtle about it- The Vocoder used by the The Late Roger Troutman who was the Grandfather and now T-Pain the Godfather of this sound has single handedly made every record a hit as for T-pain he was on every top 10 hit last year - it was one point where T-pain owned the radio and ringtones ..so just like any trend that's Winning . others had to catch on and if you have pro-tools and this feature i must say its Fun To try i mean you can be a decent singer and pull it off..so if it works why not.

TO EVOLVE PT 2
Visually we have seen black and White TV sets turn into Giant Screen Wall Mounted Plasma TVs
Music Videos are like motion pictures
- TV sitcoms are now Reality Sitcoms
-Video Games are Virtual Worlds
the Computer went from Desktop to in our pockets
and just about everything is turning into HD ( High Definition )... We've seen how the rise of Hip Hop influences the youth ..as being that Adult Figure and promising Recording Artist / Producer / DJ / Actor / Athlete whichever Career we choose we are the Role Models..even though we may not want that role, subconsciously there is those who look up to us to Inspire and Motivate them in the Tough Journey they Travel in LIfe, even if they grow bitter because they aren't as successful in there journey , they feed off from our struggles to our achievements , our Strengths and our weaknesses -
As Artist we evolve , we grow with our listeners and supporters and as we grow we notice the Trends We've set..we gain fans far and wide and as the ones to musically lead them there's bigger messages to instill - its cool to have fun and spazz out on records but also remember put thought in your songs as Messages for the ones who get it .. the biggest question as artist is who's gonna buy my album if i aint talking about what the biggest artist at the moment is talking about ? in actuality everyone don't want the same thing ..if a cereal was named fruity rocks with the same flavor as fruity pebbles but retailed cheaper why would people buy fruity rocks when they can have the real deal for a lil bit more bread ? be original if someone got a formula working don't Imitate it cause about time people are tired of that sound its already outdated..one thing we're blessed with is Ideas and Choices ( not anyones elses Idea or Choice ) - if you keep at it with yout Idea you will open up ears who feel your sound and your message ..stay true to your sound and that will be yours for years to come ..remember there are people listening and Watching and there's also people Copying

RANDOM THOUGHTS : HISTORY
11-04-2008 UNITED STATES OF AMERICA'S 44TH ELECTED PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA
LOCATION : HARLEM, NY
This is one of the Greatest days in History , despite the Turmoil us the people felt for years and years and bitter feelings of the shorter end of the stick - through Racism, segregation , Poverty and a failed Government on Nov 4th 2008 we felt The Burden drop and our wishes come true..now what this say to many of us coming up is now that Barack Obama is president we have to now work and help our communities and uplift our youth - after seeing his Speech it became clear that he wants us to take the initiative of helping this country - after all we made him our president now lets keep this Momentum moving -
so as i got mad calls and emails about Obama i noticed how much it's affected the world..it has actually made other countries root for us..it made Fidel Castro endorse Obama...all my peoples in Canada are just as amped as us - this has opened up a major door in Motivation - Artist Motivated to Record and put out Great music / Producers ready to put great beats together/ Music Industry Financially getting back in order - it's the Dawn of a new Day and i'm glad to see the people i grew up with and built with witness this - lets keep the Momentum going in a positive direction and get back to work to get this Economy back up
