SFP and Busta Rhymes in Prague, Czech Republic

May 11, 2008

So we been on this 2 week European tour and its been MAGNIFICO!  We had a few dates with Busta Rhymes and Dilated Peoples in Norway,  Sweden,  Czech Republic,  Amsterdam, and a few others.

All I can is MANNNNNN, I had a BLAST!! The World is so much BIGGER thru my eyes now.  I’m about to go home and really use this inspiration to create some Nui, Nui(thats some new gems for u slow cats..)…lol   

But really it was very humblin to go across the world and to see people that are BIG fans of Strange Fruit Project and of my production(or fans of me as a producer).  Really MInd blowin’…

I was able to capture a smidget of the Busta Show …..not to mention, this was our first time actually rockin a Stadium.   :)

April 3, 2008

young-buck.jpg

So I’m browsing HHG, and I see this track by Young Buck called “I Got Money”.  Listen Here  I’m thinkin’ to myself,  Now I got a beat called “I Got Money”…. and also I got a real solid IN with G-Unit soooo….hmmmm.  Still tryin to put two and two together I click on the link and hear my son’s voice say “You know why pimpin’?, Cuz I Get Money”….  I’m like “WoW! Buck recorded to this joint?”   lol    My Inside man tells me that someone leaked it and should not have.  So right there tells me this could’ve been possible album cut.  :)  Still could be…… Its all good tho.  I’m real good. Expect some other S1 joints with Young Buck and the whole G-Unit Crew in the VERY near future.  :)   G-G-G-G-G-Unit!!!!   lol

O yeah, Big ups to my mans Joe Young who concepted the hook and my youngest son, JaVohn, who’s voice I sampled singing it.

Expect to hear more from my sons, Vohndee(Javohn[age 10] and Deiondre[age 11]).  I did a series of beats that they both recorded the hooks on and 3 of them have already been picked up by BIG MAJOR ARTIST.  :)

Rock Climbing 101: Father vs. Son

April 1, 2008

The one thing I hate is when little kids think they no more than their parents.  I know I know, as kids we used to do the same thing to our parent but………  Well….you know now we understand what our parents meant when they used to say that.

So anyways, my oldest son, Deiondre (age 11), had the nerve to challenge me in a rock climbing contest.  Now come on son.  I’m much stronger, faster, wiser and just flat out way more athletic than you are lil’ dude.  I mean really, what makes you think that u can beat me in anything?

Maaannn forget it… I have nothing more to say.  Roll the tape please!!!!
