The album is DONE!

Maaaaaan, I thought I would never get my album completed. That's what I get for being so foolish as to do this project all on my own. Back at the height of my illness a few yrs ago, I told myself I wanted to take the challenge of doing my first solo album on my own when the time came. After all, I wasn't sure if I'd ever be my normal self again.Ā  I wanted to make sure the album had quite a few features from other up and coming independent artists. I had a chance to work with some more established artists and producers (for a nice fee of course; fees that I could barely afford anyway) but that's not what I wanted for this album. From all the late night sessions, working, tracking myself in the studio at times (should have gotten footage of myself running from the recording console to the booth in time to catch my breath and spit my verse...lol), hard drive crashes, ER visits, the birth of my kids, the marathon of Martin re-runs on tv, and numerous other things, I felt like this time would never come. I now know why some people prefer being signed to a label as it would be great if I could just focus solely on the music. It takes time to save money for mixing, mastering, duplication, and promotion. I know things probably would have been easier if I was out trapping or doing people dirty to get where I wanna be but that ain't me. God has, and continues to bring me through pain and struggle and I knew I'd get this thing done through faith. In the end I guess that's part of what makes a project fulfilling; knowing that literally all the blood, sweat, and tears meant something. I can attest that every song on the album is a song I did because I wanted to and because it felt natural, not because someone said it was the thing to do. Those familiar with Bruce Lee probably already made the connection between him and the title of this album "Be Water." It's about still being you while adapting, not compromising who you are. While there are quite a few things I would enhance in this album if my budget allowed for it, I'm proud of it and am pleased with the end result. I hope you will be too! Check for it Nov 12th.
