Whats’s
going on world this week was cool full of REALITY.
Sometimes you feel like your so close when in actuality your so far.
i’ve been trying to get into this industry for a very longtime and I’m
still trying to get in, to this very day. Many people see my videos and
hear my records and think that I’m already on and that is not the case.
Somedays i want to walk away from the music industry because there are
so many people with there eyes GREEN and
they could careless about the artist & what the artist actually goes
through. It even gets to the point where the artist isn’t even allowed
to be an artist. The very reason that I even record music is to express
myself, paint pictures of what I live, my reality and its like an uphill
battle when your reality isn’t good enough for someone else. How
could I ever be an individual when what makes me who i am isn’t good
enough?
The
reason I haven’t walked away from the music industry is because i was
born with a gift and I’m no quitter. Besides those two reasons my story
hasn’t been heard yet and I will not be satisfied until it is. People
always used to tell me that the music industry was cut throat & that
there were a lot of snakes & I used to ignore them but what they
were saying was absolutely true. Money serves to be the driving force
for those who are misfortunate but unbelievably talented so there faced
with decisions where it becomes take it or leave it. I speak from
experience not from speculation but in life I guess you have to LOSE to GAIN.
in the
process of trying to gain what’s most important is that you don’t lose
yourself. The music industry is getting smaller by the day you barely
hear of new artist and when you do there signed to a artist or major
record labels who have the machine to promote them on a mass scale all
at cost. At a meeting that I had with JAY-Z I sat
in one room with about six individuals some waiting while others
debating on rather if I had what it took be a STAR,
when I look back & think of the talks about 360 deals I realized
exactly how hard it actually is to be an artist in todays music
industry. None the less I’m still striving to get a record deal in hopes
of taking a positive turn in my life. When you have responsibilities
like a three year old daughter to support for the rest of your natural
life sacrifice becomes all you know. That’s my moral dilemma so in
saying that i just go with the flow but always conscious of whose around
me and what is going on around me and if your an artist or just a human
being you should do the same.
I love
music i’m a sucker for a good beat LOL so i can’t walk away i’m IN TOO
DEEP. Oh yeah before I go let me not forget to
“plug”
my NEW record: RIZ –
“BONECRUSHER” Feat. FRENCH MONTANA.
LOL THE
THINGS WE HAVE TO DO TO MAKE IT THRU……….. UNTIL NEXT WEEK ……..REMEMBER IN THE PROCESS OF TRYING TO GAIN DON’T LOSE
YOURSELF……LATER!
