happy birthday fallen souldier


okay so today is my friend , Herbert's birthday.he actually passed away i think 2 years ago now.but for some reason facebook wouldnt let me write this on his wall.so i figured that i'd dedicate this blog to him


this is what i wanted to write:

dag dude.i cant realise that it has been so long.i'm so sad that i cant celebrate this birthday with you.i kno that we'd be somewhere together eating.and eating and eating.just sucks that things had to happen the way they did.but i kno that it was all in God's plan.because everything that we go through is in his plan after all right? well man i kno that this isnt really getting anywhere but i just thought that i'd pay respects and drop you a birthday message.i'm not a really big facebok birthday dude.but i guess i cant really txt or call u.man just thinking about this brings me back to the day that i was sitting next to you helping you get your last wishes together 'just incase' but who would have known that that would be the last night that you could speek.man so wish we could have you back.but like i said.it was all in God's plan.hope the after life is as great as people make it up to be.cant wait till the father brings u up with the whole rapture stuff.then we'll all be together.lets just pray that i can keep my life together so that one day we'll be together again.talk to you later dude.

a great place called Selahdor

okay so i got this text the other day.it was from my (soon to be great) friend, Dustin Cavazos.it was super early in the morning (well early for me.for anyone that know's how i get down in the morning i'm usually too hyped about talking or txtn in the morning.but this is how the convo went



dustin cavazos: Yo. Are you coming to the show tonight? 6:29 AM
Me: Where is it @? 6:30 AM
dustin cavazos: At my studio 6:31 AM
Me: Kool.shoot me the info.like address n time.I'll come thru 6:32 AM
dustin cavazos: 3403 shelly blvd. Dallas tx 75211 its free! Its starts at eight. Ummm. Its sometimes spelled shelley 6:34 AM
Me: Like n 2 hrs???.lol.jk.I'll b there 6:35 AM
dustin cavazos: Haha. Yeah. Tonight. Yo. You're gonna love it 6:38 AM
Me: I would really love it if there was free food.lol.is there like a flyer on ur myspace or anything? 6:39 AM
dustin cavazos: Yeah go to my blog. On myspace. If its not on the last one. Check the one before 6:40 AM
Me: Kool 6:41 AM



okay so as you see that was at like 6 in the morning.dont ask me why i even responded to that txt.but good thing that i did because 14 hrs later i was having a great time. i was introduced to this place called Selahdor and i must say that it was one of the best places that i'd ever been to.lol.so this was a show that Dustin put on at his studio featuring several artist that he works with.i was overal pleased with the line up with performances from JC Money, jonny mack, Gallery Cat, Ty City, and a new group that will BLOW your mind away, SCUBA TEAM GO!.the greatest thing since sliced bread. the night was wrapped up with a performance from Dustin and his band.he aslo played the melodica.i was shocked because i didnt kno that he played an instrument.lol

i mean this night was great.if you have never taken a trip out to Selahdor.u need to.and make your way over to Shelley Blvd.cause they are pumpin out hits over there.

just a weekly check in

hope everyone's week is going great.i kno that i have been doing my micro blogging.and i hope that you all have been enjoying the pics of all the crazy things that i've been doing this week.just a lil check in on some funny/interesting things that have happened this week.

well the latest is that i got a txt from a friend asking me to send her a pic.lol

i was like: WHY
she said: becuase my friends are showing off pics of their BFs (she doenst have one) and i was thinking...if i dont have it...fake it.


that was very funny to me.lol.so i put a question out on twitter and facebook asking if i should send her a pic.
some said yes.some just laughed.others suggested that something else was going to come of it(but we wont go there)
end result i didnt send her a pic.and she tried to play it off as if she was just joking (i think that she stole a pic of me from facebook and showed me off.but its kool.cause now i know she thinks i'm cute.lol)

uh...another thing is...

i've been eating a lot better.i also went to get my hair cut at a random barber shop (if you kno me u'd understand that its a bid todo for me to do something like that) and it turned out really good.so i think i'm keeping that guy.

uh...some more...

idk...OH..yea i got all these kool shirts form shirt.woot.com and threadless.com and i cant wait to show the world.

I Think in the Shower I Dream on My Bike


okay so a couple of fridays ago (actually if you look at my Uzi blog.this is the same friday)i was at a show in Deep Elm (or is it Deep Elum) all i kno is that it was on Elm Street. and usually u have nightmares on elm street.but this time i was met with what seemed to be the future.a savior of music.(and you all kno that i have a special place in my heart for GREAT music). this guy was rocking the stage that night.and i had no clue who he was.all i kno is that i loved every song that he did.i approached him after the show and let him kno that i wanted to cover him on my blog.gave him a card.and asked him to contact me.

a few weeks later i get a txt from him.letting me kno that his EP was about to drop.and asking if i would take a listen.

his name: Dustin Cavazos
his project: the shelly EP

what i got was straight greatness.this EP was full of songs that i think anyone could relate to.my fav being Hopeless to Believe track 2 on the EP.

but i must let you all kno that this guy has my stamp of approval.(and i'm not usually wrong when it comes to finding out about great artist)


BUT please everyone go check out the shelly EP by Dustin Cavazos

he also let me in on a preview of his album coming out.and trust it will be worth copping when it drops

since you all have read this far i'll share w/ you the video to the first track of his album

GOD IS GREAT.but you all kno that already right????

i dont kno if you all noticed but this week i was pretty bummed out.this is why...

okay so on friday i was waken with a txt from my mom "i'm taking the money out today.call me if you need me to wait" i was like why is she taking money out of my acct.(well this is something she always does on my pay day) i was like this is not the right day.i havent got paid yet. but i had.and at that point i realized that i had not enough money to cover all of my bill.(i hate that feeling)

i went the whole week pretty much wondering what i was going to do.i was thinking about all of the extra stuff i did and wishing that i could take it all back. but of course u can never turn back time.

so one day i gotta txt from a great friend. he had noticed that i was bummed out and was wondering y.

i explained my situation and he gave me a scripture to ease my mind.reminding me of the promises of my Heavenly Father.

its soooo hard to trust n have faith when things are going bad.but you have to remember the times that God has brought you through and kno that he will always bring you through.

that scripture was Matthew 6:34

it talks bout not worrying about tomorrow.but i read the whole chapter and it really opened my eyes.

so i was eased a little but when you have bills coming up and you kno you dont have the money to pay them.its REALLY hard to just be calm.

i kept that scripture in my mind through the weekend. then on today (monday the 31 of August) i received a call from my boss and he told me that today i got a BONUS check and it was waiting for me at the office.

i was blown out of the water. its crazy how much God loves us.and we dont love Him back half as much.i kno that i will never be perfect.but i'm glad that i have someone who i can depend on and know's my needs

Oh no. @rick_smith just fell overboard.gotta find someone to help

UZOY: like the gun

okay so like i really really love GREAT music.people who are actually creative w/ their music and arent afraid to break the mold after their creation is complete.

so like two years ago i was traveling through myspace and landed on the planet of UZOY. this was around the same time i found Janelle, B.o.B, and a couple of other artist. it was at the time when i was looking for something new.because urban radio kept throwing me the same ol' thing.

i clicked play one the first track of this artist's page and fell in love. i mean i was already a Kanye, Mos Def, Common, Talib, and Lupe fan. but these were all guys.and she gave me that femal version of all those styles blended into one hot female smoothie. i had never heard such a strong passion delivered by a female in such a way.

so i've kept her in my scope and on Friday the 21st of August i was able to experience that delivery live.

this artist ripped the stage like no other artist before her had done that night(i wont speak on the artist that came after..another blog)

after the performance we spoke and she let me in on the mistakes that were made.but who is worse critic to an artist other than himself(or herself). but yea if you havent had a chance make sure you check out UZOY's MySpace. if you like great music u'll love this.
