Well, at least there's Monday Night Football...



Yo yo!! Hope everyone is enjoying their day today.  Today is the start of me TRYING to blog once a day.  Funny thing is, I would pick a day to start that when I have absolutely nothing to talk about.  Somehow I will pull this off and complete this blog, even if it's filled with a whole bunch of gibberish, then finish strong with some football talk.  With that being said, let the gibberish begin!

I guess I'll get all the other random stuff out the way first.  Anyone that has been keeping track with my blog can see that there's a new look to it.  I had this one template that I was gonna use, but after hours of tampering with it, I realized how much it sucked and I decided to go with a more simpler look.  You can now access my Soundcloud, Youtube, Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook from this blog.  I'll be doing a lot more frequent updates with my music as time passes too, so be on the look out. Unfortunately, today was filled with nothing but utter boredom for the most part, and absolutely no music work done what so every.  That will all change as the week progresses.

Now since that's all out the way, let's talk about some FOOTBALL!

I'm glad tonights game between the Miami Dolphins and the New Orleans Saints has no impact on my Fantasy Football team (which is the only team that's undefeated and is in first place... NAH NANA NAH NAH!) so I can sit back and enjoy the game.  Wait, let me correct that, I can enjoy MOST of the game today because I will be turning back and forth between that and Sleepy Hollow.  That's me and my girl's new show to watch together, it just so happens to come on during Monday Night Football...meaning it's not too concern about ratings I guess.  Anyways, I know both teams are undefeated, but I feel like I expected more from the Saints this season.  They don't seem like the same team they were during their Superbowl run in 2009, but their defense does look a little better than it has in the last couple of years.  Miami on the other hand looks a lot better than most people expected.  Ryan Tannehill looks to be the qb that Miami needed for success.  Hard to believe he doesn't have too much experience at quarterback, but he sure is handling the job well.  As much as I do want the Saints to win (I try to root for my boy Pierre Thomas, since I grew up with him.  He's a good dude), I somehow feel that their will be an upset tonight.  So I'm picking the Dolphins to win a close one by a field goal, 31-28.

Time to start getting ready for the game/Sleepy Hallow.  Enjoy the game (or the show if you're in the same situation I'm in).  PEACE!

A Change is Gonna Come

YO YOOOOOOO!!! It's been a little while since I last blogged (I have a habit of taking extended vacations from blogging), but I'm back yet again!  Normally when I come back I have updates on what's been going on in my life, no need to change the routine now.  So with that said, here's what's new with me.

*thinks.... where do I begin? Hmmmm...*

First off, this is the first time publicly I will announce that I'm no longer a part of the hip hop group CMG.  There's no beef between me and any of the other member, I just felt as if it was time for me to move on.  I thank everyone in CMG for giving me the opportunity to rock with them, grow with them, and bond with them.  CMG makes some DOPE music, and Synergy II is not only one of the best albums I've heard in a while (this is totally a non bias opinion), but it shows the progression of men not only artistically, but mentally, spiritually, and just a total progression in life itself.  Nothing but love for those guys, I wish them the best of luck with everything and I hope to work with them again in the near future.  Make sure to check out their Facebook page here --->  https://www.facebook.com/copamg

This doesn't mean that I'm done with music (in case you were wondering). I am now a full member of O.T.S.S. Ent as an artist, producer, and engineer.  As of now, we are doing a lot of building and organizing for future plans.  You'll be hearing about them a lot more from me in the future, so be on the look out.  Also, I am in the process of working on my solo project (FINALLY) called "The Butterfly DEfect".  More to come on that, so stay tuned.

Since the last blog, I have gotten in a relationship with a wonder, beautiful girl named Michaela.  I been through a lot of heart break in my life, but this relationship feels different.  I feel balance between me and her, and that's very important.  She's not just my girl, she's my best friend.  Not because that's how it SHOULD be, but because that's just actually how it is.  It's not by force, as some of my past relationships have been.  I'm a blessed man to have her, and although it's only been four months, I feel that it's very possible that our relationship will continue strong for a LONG time.

Not only was I a single man since my last blog, I was also a heavier man.  I've started a new diet and have been working out almost everyday (oops... skipped yesterday, don't tell anyone) and have lost 32 pounds.  I feel and look better, but I know this is only a start.  I'm far from my idea weight right now, but I will get there in due time because I'm motivated and determined to reach this goal.  Shout out to the Myfitnesspal app, it has helped a lot.  My girl and my cousin have also been a big help for motivating me and keeping me on the "Write" track.  If either of you are reading this, thank you. (And if you are not, when WHY IN THE H@#$ ARE YAL NOT READING?!?! )

I'm not the only one that's been going through changes.  My father is no going through dialysis three times a day.  He lost over 20 pounds in just a few days and he feels a lot better now.  Eventually he's still gonna need a kidney, and part of the reason why I'm trying to lose weight is because if possible, I would like to be the one to give him one (kidney disease is hereditary, so who knows if I may need that kidney for myself). It's been a rough 2 years for him, but he is surviving the fight.  I thank everyone for the prayers for him, myself, and my family.  Nothing but love to all of you.

I could go on, but I'll try to spread out the other updates in newer blogs to come.  Some people fear change cause of not knowing what to expect, but change is a part of life.  Everything changes: situations, people, feelings, underwear (ok, for some people, underwear is NOT true...eww), etc. We often think that the blueprints for our life is written in permanent ink, but it's not... things have to be erased and altered to be made properly complete.  We have to embrace and prepare for change everyday as humans.  Just remember, not all change is good.  Make sure your changes are the best for yourself because another thing that changes is time, and time is something we can't get back.  As long as their is time left in your life, its never to late to make changes.  PEACE!
