Eat, Sleep, Drink music

Eat, sleep, drink music, and make it. Honestly thats what I think it takes to really achieve success with your goals, also smart, steady grinding. It doesn't start with the money, though it helps. Scarcity of money makes someone hungry and persevere more than people with it. Here's a little something to keep you going during those all nighters working samples, drum patterns, and basslines, the MiniMug Coffee cup. Moog analog synthesizers have been in the game for a while, and they're no joke with its distinctive circuitry and unique sound that no other device can emulate. This machine has been used on countless records. Keep the inspiration going. Always keep things and people that motivate you around.

Where is Nas? At the 50th Grammy Awards.

Here is some pictures of Nas and his wife Kelis at the 2008 Grammy Awards promoting his new album. It's supposed to be released this month, being that it's Black History month. But there's not even a single in rotation. I think everyone has something to say about this release due to the controversial title "Nigger". Nas has always been one of my favorite MC's because of his amazing story telling skills and clever lyrics that any Rap audiophile can appreciate. Forget what the politicians have to say, after all there not the one's in the studio up all night working on that classic. They work on passing bills, to take more hard earned money out of our pocket's daily. They don't want people to be enlightened with truth. Forget about the critics they probably were never a subject of present day racism, which me and my peers still go through everyday. I think we all just got to sit back and wait for the release. I'll keep everyone posted when the album will be released. "Nas is coming"

Akai MPC5000 like a new Mecedes Benz CL AMG

Here are some photos and a video link of the highly anticipated MPC5000 by Akai now known as a household name in the Music Production recording world. This machine is very powerful with a first ever built in synth, and capable of doing all the work right in the box, no computer necessary. The MPC is due for release sometime this quarter, before the beginning of April. Akai can put me down on the list as a prospective client of this product. I called Guitar Center in Long Island City, Queens last week to see if they had it in the store, so I could go make a beat on it. The Pro Audio Representative told me that they only had the 500 in stock, and Akai is scared to come to Queens and service them with products. I'm not to sure about that one, It may or may not be true. I called my boy who works at Sam Ash in Brooklyn, he was definitely aware of the product and just as ecstatic as I was when were discussing the features. But his store didn't receive it yet, nor any news on it. Anyway I'll keep everyone updated and where to find relevant information.
