at this moment i'm waiting impatiently on an email.
the business of the business sucks balls sometimes.
i'm not pressed or anything, especially since i know that this stuff rarely EVER goes like clockwork, but i'm still checking my email account every 5 minutes for an update.
walt should have received my cd by now, and at the very least given it a listen. i'll keep you updated.
conversely, my man Nate is also trying to manage me. he'd be more of a rookie in the business, but he really believes in my music, my sound, and we're friends. there's alot to be said for that partnership.
add to that that he's already found a buyer for 2 of my beats and will be talking prices and legal etcs. this week... he's really giving walt a run for his money. whoever can place the most beats for the most money in the shortest amount of time, that's the person that gets a 15-20% cut off top as compensation for services rendered.
i'm going to knock out 2 beat cds before wednesday, a hip hop joint and a r & b'sh joint so he can parlay em accordingly. it was dope, i was over my homie Mo's house, and i had to interrupt our movie watching to take a business call. haha. and we talked dollar figures! it was great. a taste of the life.
Nate works where lots of big big name artists come through. he just saw Jim Jones last week. that's sick. if he can land a few beats with those cats... i don't even want to dream too much.
it's crazy.
next few months is gonna be a crazy ride. i expect "business trips", lots of phone calls and industry parties, and lots of money spent. but if it works out like it should... by my 27th birthday i should see my first big payoff.
here's to the hustle.
