“Okay”player review

August 13, 2009

Making music is the best gift that god could have ever given to me!  I create art to inspire and motivate people to do the same with their talents, so normally i don’t read full reviews of my work.  Jane hooked it up with okayplayer so Battery Effect could be a feature review so i had to read what they had to say.  This is my second review on okayplayer so i was so pumped!! Alot of people cant even say that they have been on the site.  Any way man…the review in my eyes was exactly right– the record was too short and i had to many guest verses…for a solo joint i shoulda put more of “me” on the record.  She called it a heat check and it was very much that– ive been with so blessed with opportunities to produce for amazing emcees, and want to continue to challenge myself to be a better artist.  Rapping is something that i do because i dont wanna bottle my feelings– its a fun way to connect with the listener to be more blatant rather than speaking through the beat.

Obviously producing is my ace although i dont feel like i have in no way mastered it– i have created my own style and can get the sounds i hear in my head out and into the mpc and into your ears.  Writing is a challenge…my girlfriend is a columnistfor our city paper so watching and hearing about her creative process helps me relax and start my verses.  I have been feeling so lost about what to do artistically.  I work better when i focus and organize my energy.  Do i focus on beats for Outasight, work on an very unorganized RTL project, hit and miss with my homie Izmore or do i do a mixtape.  For the past couple of nights my poor jane has been having to listen to me like a broken record debate about what imma do–  Ive been writing so many bars and been making some heater beats so………im going all in– not holding back– Battery Effect 2 (The Anti-Hero Corp.)  starting……NOW

Big shouts and a super thanxs to Heather Faison for the honest and uplifting review!  read her review HERE
