Where the Wild Things Are

 

It’s the second summer in LA feels like, its 80 degrees sunny and Im on my way to my I-tunes release party tonite. Two days away  from releasing a couple singles and I must say I am pretty excited but more so relieved that I get to finally be heard. Shout out to all the artists who were a part of and continue to be a part of this process! I just finished recording in Vegas with PoohBear incredible songwriter who's written for the likes of Usher, Jill Scott, Chris Brown, Mary J Blige, Lupe Fiasco damn near everybody seems like. We went to R n B live the other night and seemed like half of the covers people would come up and sing he had written! Pretty amazing to hear one of your songs on the radio everyday I imagine. The craziest part of the recording process with him is where we recorded. It was this beautiful compound with real fully grown wolves in the front yard and two cheetahs and a spider monkey in the house. Amazing how these wild animals just co-exist with human beings like its nothing. The first morning I woke up I was greeted at the door by a cheetah looking dead at me like "who are you". Needless to say I didn’t come out to use the bathroom until two hours later when the owners woke up. I hope I never have to hold my pee that long again lol.  by the time I left though I was watching tv with the cheetahs posted right beside me. Really kinda surreal because even though you knew the animal was house broken the fact that if he could change his mind  wild out on me made me complete;y respectful of his home and space and I think he appreciated that lol.  Anyway we came up with some great songs to add to the album how could you not in such a creative environment. Got a few more songs left with Mark Nelson (AZ YEt) and Lil G (Silk) and about to record a duet with Brandy who I've been a huge fan of from day one. Feeling good right about now. Got a show the  October 28th and November the 18th in LA. I'll keep you posted on as well. Oh  yeah went to see Maxwell Friday he ripped it had good seats too couldn’t help but wanna do a Lil Mama run on stage and do my thing. But my time will come says the universe. Well on my way to DC for Howards Homecoming I should have plenty to tell you about when I return. Peace look out for the single "Gurl" in a city near you. Its finally time to sing hope your listening. . . .
