#TheEnd

Although my presentation was a success, I feel as though it could have been much better. As far as Prezi content goes, I'm very satisfied with my work. However I wish the video I created along with Rondel and Kyle was more in depth and showed more of the work I put in all year. The video contained a 17 second snippet being looped throughout the video, I wish it could have been composed of more of my beats. All in all, I was very happy with my presentation.

#ALLISeeIsTees

As of lately, everything I look at seems to be on a t-shirt canvas. This t-shirt vision of mine is both a gift and a curse. On one hand, I would never have a shortage of creative t-shirt designs. That one thing I love about creating shirts designs, the possibilities, directions, and venues you can go with a simple tee are endless. But on the other hand, I would like to actually appreciate something for what it is, instead of metaphorically “placing” it on a t-shirt the instant I see it (lol). I’m not sure if Rondel feels this same way, knowing him he probably does, but one thing I know for certain, our first t-shirt is going to be unlike anything you’ve ever seen before.

#VideoOfTheWeek

N.S.A.F.*

This video from my big homie, the "Hot Spitta" himself, Curren$y, is an instant classic. What makes this video so dope* isn't the fact that Curren$y is one dope dude (although it definitely adds to the fact), it's the fact that the video actually has a storyline, which is often forgetten in hip-hop music videos these days...Jet Life to the next life..

N.S.A.F.= Not So Abrams Friendly

#SponsorVisitNumber?

My latest sponsor visit was real dope*. And this time it actually took place in his studio (lol). It started off like our typical meetings: him giving me a sample of one of his new songs, as well as new insight for beat-making, and him letting me do my own thing in the studio. After about thirty minutes of that, he came back into his studio to view a video a friend of his had sent him to critique. What started off as simple video suggestions turned into me and Ronnie rearranging the entire video, drowning the creator of the video with alterations. Speaking of editing, while over my sponsor’s studio, I was on the phone with my shawty* Deja Lee. I played the beat I was making at the time for her, she was digging* it, but also gave me ways improve on it, and I appreciate that. When it was all said and done, that sponsor visit was a success because not only did I make progress with my current beat, my sponsor and I got to bond without the involvement of music and that’s just as important.

#Leak

Last week I let the world know just how excited I was for Tyler, the Creator’s album “Goblin” which is set to drop May 10^th. Well with the help of YouTube, and a heads up from my lil homies Ronnie Tolbert and Osiris Jackson I was able to listen to the album, in its entirety. I know what you’re thinking “Larry if you’re such a big Tyler, the Creator fan why don’t you buy the actual product rather than listening to the leak?” The answer is simple: I have every intention to download the album; I just got a tad too eager and took advantage of the eagerness of others (YouTube).  I don’t want to spoil it for anybody so let’s just say I HIGHLY recommend the album to anyone seeking creativity at its finest….#OFWGKTA #GolfWang #SWAG
