"SO STUPID"

I want to introduce you to an artist by the name of VON SWAY.(www.myspace.com/vonswayonline) Von Sway is a great songwriter and talented performer. He aspires to " Stir up feelings, capture imaginations and fuel thoughts with his messages of hope and love." I was introduced to this young artist's music by a really good friend of mine, DJ KMP. He asked me to write a song for Von Sway. It was my first attempt at writing a song for a guy. I really liked what I wrote... but they ended up not choosing it. It's all good because I'm just grateful I even got the opportunity. What he wrote is really dope. It's a catchy and heartfelt song the ladies will love.. tell me what you think!

DO YOU ?????




What's up world..hopefully you've eaten enough barbecue to last u until July 4Th.. I know I have :) I've been reading Russel Simmons Book Do You. It's very very good. I suggest everyone go out and get it. He talks a lot about the spiritual rewards of giving and he has quite a few inspiring stories about Puffy, Jay Z, and other people who are now successful in the music industry. One message that really stuck with me.. was to not be so attached to results. While it's imperative we set goals, and reach for the stars.. it's not required that we worry ourselves to death because we are not in the place we "think" we should be. Powerful. This really hit home for me because for the past couple of years I feel like I've tried so hard to get myself out there, get my name noticed, a song heard, a song placed something!! I've accomplished a lot of things and met a lot of great people, but I'm definitely not at the place I envision in my head. I now see that I must let go. Enjoy the journey and continue working hard and be open to change. The possibilities are on my side. Can u relate? Here's a song for your troubles:) Remember this?!?! Have a good week!

WHAT IN GOD'S NAME IS SOULCANDY

Glad u asked...SoulCandy is the way I describe my music..It's sweet and tasty yet it has a soulful edge. Candy is a good treat but too much candy can rot your teeth..So I add the soul to balance it out. I would say I try to combine 4 differnt styles to to make my soulcandy. Think SADE,MISSY,ERYKAH BADU & JILL all in one! Sound crazy? That's me :) Here's a song for you to taste..tell me what u think :)
