Pea's Gotta Have It

if my contributions and the songs built out of them are in any way indicative of the way this album is going to sound, it's going to be some dope shit.

he tore into one beat, and made 2 come alive, and then one song... is gonna be an earth shaker. i never thought i'd personally know an mc so dope.

now i know like 5.

i really need to get a grip on songwriting.

at very least, hooks. optimally, full songs.

to date, i've toyed with it, had a few days where i thought i could write my way to a grammy, and other days where i felt like i should stick to what i know.

i keep meaning to bring my thumbdrive to work full of grammy winning r&b songs, so i can just beat that shit in my head, but i keep forgetting until the last minute.

i still haven't send ms. knight my tracks for review, and my mission statement. i'm holding on to it until i feel fully comfortable with what i include for her. i'm not really putting a rush on it, but i do want it to be out there soon, so maybe if it's some shit dope enough for her to push on it, she can put some money in all our pockets.

i'm really bent on placing one track in the next 2.5 months. it's very important that i do that for a couple of reasons, most important being the money, and next to that, proof that somebody other than people with no budgets (nttawwt) want to perform music with me. i could use that confirmation right now, cause at this point i'm throwing everything but the kitchen sink up against this creative wall and seeing what sticks. i wanna get to the point where i can develop a formula and work in that construct, and not be floundering hoping i can make some pop shit.

really what i need is a single.

a single opens it up for all involved, especially if it takes off.

man... i'll be back later. bout to go have breakfast.
