Nothing Out The Textbooks.

IM RETIRING.

November 13, 2008

from rapping over other peoples beats. fuck that, its over.

at least for 2009. im going to try my best to not do it for a whole year (starting now though) and if i can do that then ill make it…lol

i dont care how dope the beat is, im not “freestyling” over noone elses beat unless they personally ask me to for the remix or something. consider “further adventures…” a swan song.

i dont do it on purpose, i get the urge to do it. “nobody” was an urge. “vonye” was an urge. “further…” was an urge i fought for a few months (lol this shit sounds like i have a smoking habit) but i gave in. im not doing it anymore. ever again. and random freestyles and shit?

DONE.

im not with that riddim/dub plate shit man. lol…its being done as friendly competition and all jokes aside thats dope as hell to me. everyone wanted to be the best on swagger like us/incredible/a milli and thats a good thing, but its just really hard for me to do that too. “get busy” on che’s mixtape was supposed to be us on swagger like us. i wrote like 3 or 4 verses and they werent even wack, i just couldnt do that beat knowing everyone else did. i kept trying to do a verse that felt right on it but it wasnt about that, it was me feeling like i was following instead of doing it as friendly competition. as much “sucka mc” shit as i talk on songs, i just dont have that competitive spirit in me, im not worried about other niggas like that, im just happy doing me. im the guy in the marathon just happy to finish. i cant be mad at another rapper for real. (i said for real at the end of my sentence…ha im on my Cincinnati shit!)

i said all that to say this…i hope you downloaded and enjoyed/will continue to enjoy “further adventures of von pea…” because if im lucky its the last time ill be doing that. 2009 sees tanya morgan “brooklynati” coming in april, aeon and i got some ep shit cookin, che and i got some ep shit cookin, and if im lucky “peas gotta have it” will see the light of day next year. no more “other niggas instrumentals”

PEACE!

i want to thank fwmj for letting me do the podcast on rik.com, shake and meka for chopping the dope up for us (and always holding the lessondary down), eskay for impressing the label by putting the video up (lol), deephunk for “we can get down 2003″ (bringing up old shit! (c) smokey), the smoking section, rock the dub, onsmash, okayplayer, illvibes, and everyone that has put up or plans to put up this mixtape on their blog. especially those that plan to put it up after this…because you know in all efforts to promote music you like, you dont mind not being the first person. thats why the blog shit is dope, because some magazines wont fuck with you if theyre not the first. you cant spread the word from one place!

and once again this mixtape was inspired by madlib/quasimoto’s “the further adventures of lord quas”
click on this image to….BUY IT!

Che and I play this album heavily. heavily!!

stones throw please dont shut a nigga down, this is free and off of the legal instrumentals. this is the same way Jaylib came about! lol…but on the real, its me over the instrumentals and im not selling it or anything so its all good. i hope! someone get a copy of this to mr. jackson.

a message to all artists…or human beings for that matter.

October 31, 2008

fuck a critic.

and im not talking “THEY GAVE ME 3 MICS? IMA KILL SOMEBODY!” im talking about those critical of your art as an artist in general…or those critical of you as a person.

if its your punk ass supervisor, or if you are a punk ass supervisor and you dont like being that way but you have to answer to a bitch ass boss that doesnt know whats going on below him/her, or if your family is critial of your life and how you live it, forget all that shit.

its like this yo, its easy to criticise something or someone, but if you arent of what youre critiquing, then you can never fully understand whats going on. i once lost a job because the top dudes came in and basically wanted to know why i wasnt doing the work of 3 people myself. they didnt know it was impossible to do alone because they didnt have to do it.

long story short, whatever youre second guessing right now, stop second guessing it, because youre probably right in the first place. nevermind the critics.

re: the finalizing of “further…”

October 29, 2008

questlove would be proud.

this shit is scary…theres songs where i wrote without the beat and theres already sound effects that fall on certain words. like i mention laughing and theres laughing in the back. madlib put that shit there months ago, not me. wow.
