Inside me I have so much stuff. I have passion, knowledge, punchlines, jokes, wisdom, an extensive vocabulary, conviction, laughter, and a strong burning desire to share all those things with you.
Why do I feel compelled to do this?
Mainly because I know how bad music on the radio really is. They talk about shallow, destructive things that don't really help anyone. But they're so dang catchy most people don't even know what they're listening to because it sounds so sweet.
If you didn't know, I make Hip Hop/Rap music. I also sing in English and Spanish. I want to make wonderful, beautiful, strong, clever music that edifies, encourages and supports you.
Here's the thing.
While I MAY have somewhere to record, and I can find time to write, what I'm missing is a key piece. I need beats. I don't have the time or capabilities to sit down for hours at a time and dig through samples to make beats. Even if I did, most of the time when I make beats I can't ever really write to them.
That said, beats/instrumentals are a key piece to making music. I'd either need to find someone to help me get quality beats to rhyme on, or get a little help in being able to buy beats. I've gotten good beats for as little as 150$. Believe me, that is cheap when it comes to beats.
I'm not asking for anyone to buy a beat for me. Unless you want to. ;)
What I AM asking for is help. Monetary help? Pretty much. I'm basically a bum on the corner asking everyone who reads this for a couple bucks for a beer...I mean cup of coffee...I mean beat. I wouldn't use any money given to me for anything but making music. How do you know that I'm telling the truth?
It takes a good deal of strength to put something, like this, that a normal person would think is humiliating, on the internet.
Welp, that's bout it. I want to make good music for you and I'm asking for help.
I'm saying I need your help.
Here's a sample. I made this beat a while back, and I got Playdough and ManChild on the track. Two AWESOME MCs. I'm not expecting to make money or get famous from my music. I just want to make it for you.
Ready to rock,
