Saylen's Response


HAHAAA...

YEAH NIGGA!
the scramble is stupid right now.
i gotta release alot of stuff to even begin to start releasing the dopeness.
please realize that the last couple of videos that you all have seen, violin, dog, battling, skateboard, late night on the town, etc.

all of that was on one day. lol
i dont record everything but i just recorded most of the day. it was the first time i began to use my camera.

but in addition to that footage i have some more dopeness that is being created.
I sent over something to SAYLEN and I plan to post his response ... If it isn't the response I was looking for then I know what needs to be done as far as elevating the dopeness meter.
In all reality, though, it will be good music.
as far as that little riddle, someone will figure it out. if you just...idk.
someone has to.
if not, i'll post the answer when the actual...ummm...'thing' is released.

yes indeed.
not much time but tonight ill probably upload the final part of that 3 way battle just because.

i know there are alot of readers out there though only 7 of you post comments.
lol
smh smh smh

nah but its all good.
let get get get get get get get get get get get get get get get it!!!!!


oh and DZ, ima call your phone in 9 hours

i recorded the other day.

man.
stupid.


but - i no longer have my old editing program since i switched to a mac.
now i have this logic pro 8 and uhhh

my - is it difficult to understand.

whatever - the songs are tough though.
you'll see...


before releasing any of that stuff though i have to develop this other skill.


saw this one movie.
it was rather notoriously inspirational.
it represented for my religion like 3 times in there. ^_^

dont ask what that means.
matter fact, dont ask what anything means unless you really need to know.


yoooo


big things poppin...oh yes yes, indeed.


oh another thing...
uhhh

someone was watching tv when i was at this one place the other day and i was like !!!

i dont watch these types of movies but yo..it was ...disturbing. i saw the very end.
thats it.
it was called hostel 2.

Rosa Parks sat so Martin Luther could walk.

taken from one of the blogs that I visit frequently:
TheBombS***


this video reminds me of how when I met Lupe.
Girl called me. You listening to the radio. He is there. I go... and yeah
don't know if I told that whole story...

one of the main differences between my story and Big Sean's is that ...well.. lol.
I'm unsigned.

But yeah - Big Sean is nice from what I've heard.
indeed.

lyrics.

it certainly feels weird typing lyrics.
here are the lyrics to 'light heart'
uhhh
yup.


"My drive is like the ambulance so pull over when I'm scrambling
With no discussion or questions I'm answering
My side is bright like the antonym of Anakin's and
I am Legend, talking to these mannequins since
they strive for nice clothing although their skull computer
doesn't hold programs
I strive for light to glow like the sol in the sky
so I scramble upload them.
I showed so they know what I say is clear
I glow like the soles on L.A. Gear
I gleam when I spit I speak to glow
like the Soul on the flick with Jaffe Joe and Hakeem
Perfume is in me wordplay
suppose this is from Roses on the flo
yo, I'ma do me and you can do you
see I'm fine like Caroline....ya'll boo boo.


*Bright like a star, light heart is a art*

so nevermind a clever line if ever I
confuse you, cause I'm aware that they don't really feel me
but they know I'm in the air, I'm like bluetooth
Except I'm never frost bitten to the spittin
my flaws have thawed so this bar isn't far from the jaws of Jaws
I think with the force of a Porshe not a hoopty
goofy dudes is like Jar Jar Binks...
cause they don't use the force, it seems they just talk
with their tongue hanging out their mouth like M.J. when he jump-man
they say they've got a fly swag, but, it's like I'm walking on the moon
I resume in the mind state of a space station, stationed in this space
I jam in the basement.
But I ain't tryna ball but I'm off the bench so on the track my back's "Off The Wall".

*Bright like a star, light heart is a art*

this one's for ya'll, this one's for them
from the top of the fitted to the bottom of the Tims, but
I don't really wear Tims cause I stay in Cali where it's too hot for that
I'm too hot for RAP, take out the 'R' put in a 'H'
take out the 'A' put in a 'I-HOP' at the end of it
this isn't artificial, no this is intelligence.
let me get my Osment on, see, I'm now talking with sense- and
I don't know if I should even go on, hence, that's why I'm sitting on the fence where
the dumb and the intellect pass and I eat emcees for breakfast, so
everything that I make will vary while they stay sweet like pancakes and berries...

*Bright like a star, light heart is a art*"

brainstorming

school is in effect again. like, ridiculous this time around....ridiculous.
posted in the back of the class with the macbook pro on deck, ideas...they arrive...
it's crazy.

and, I wish I could 100% effectively express my 'artistic visions' -
we would need some motion picture Iron Man/Spiderman Antwone Fisher Donnie Darko type of stuff going on though...haha


The intro to the next and possibly final mixtape is lovely.
I listen to the instrumental on repeat.

The next video that I release through Youtube may be the continuation of that little '3 way battle' cypher...lol

After that, probably part 3 of 3 of that little battle though there is enough footage for like 5 of them.
we were...in a zone.

crazy.

After that, there are 2 cuts, 1 in particular that needs to be released as a means to...develop/experiment.

you'll see.

A previous post actually hinted towards this song.
"H.D." is the name of it..... ^_^

the title is not exactly H.D. but those letters stand for something else.

Music Video - I have one in mind.
But I really want to cast some characters. The video is already done in my brain. Just need the right... people.
I also need to buy a tripod.
Who got 5 on it.

(here I could go into a vent talking about the thousands, yes, thousands of downloads received ....and the donations remain in the single digit...but I won't...big ups to the donors though. YEAH MANNNN)


WHAT SONG WOULD YOU LIKE TO SEE AS A VIDEO?


let me know....
I have a certain song in mind that is ...cool.

making the impossible possible. That's it!
full time work + school + music seems like alot....but really...
nvm.
it is alot.
lol


BZZZZZ


ps: they won't learn till it's their turn.
