Coming S.O.O.N: Updates on the music makings and happenings

SelfSays — Mon, 04 Feb 2013 06:33:03 +0000

An update in regards to the musics
So what have I been up to? Well I recently finished recording a new record that will be out this year. The record which will be brought to you by myself and my London team slash family Earnest Endeavours is called Sleeves. I think it’s my strongest collection of music to date. I’ve been mentioning this record on my twitter and Facebook profiles for a while now, but it’s finally coming. I got some guest appearances coming as well. I along with my homie Doc Illingsworth appear on the big homie Sweatson Klank/Take’s new record that drops this year. On the more immediate tip, I feature along with my homies Detroit Cydi of which Illingsworth is a member of, on the new Kool A.D. mixtape that drops on the seventh of this month. You’re probably very familiar with Kool A.D. from his work with his former group Das Racist. Very cool fersure. Shot outs to my bro’s Rufio, Sean Uppercut, Doc Illingsorth and the big homie Kool A.D. What else hmmm I’ve started working on the next records. I’m in the writing phases right now, but what I can say is that expect some smaller projects to pop up throughout the year. Also being in the writing phases of the next projects I can safely say I’ve started penning the first lyrics for what will be material that will show up on my album. Yup, I’m finally getting around to starting that LP of mine. I got to admit I feel kind of excited about where this music thing is going. I’m feeling good. I’m Kevin Sorbo.

Well here we are in in the first of month of a new year. I know I’m kind late on this but yeah happy New Year especially to those living under rock, Neanderthal man still walking among us and those with phobias of calendars and watches. Admittedly I kind of purposely chose to not to participate in the introspection and resolutions and declarations of “how we about to kill it this year” that take over the interwebs during that time. I just feel a lot of those ideas lose life once they hit the wall of your facebook page or is it reduced to 140 characters. Besides, isn’t that what we say every year and as each year draws to a close we are left with the task of trying to make sense of what happen over the last 365 days (the good and the bad). That’s not say I totally removed myself from the act taking a look at my year. Sure I did. I was fortunate enough to have a really good year. A year that was one of the most productive, eye-opening and inspired I have ever had. As hokey and cliche as it may sound dreams did come true( thanks for your guys help in making those things happen btw). If you have been following my on goings over the last year then you aware of some those, rehashing details aren’t really necessary. The feelings, memories and experiences are what will live on. So yeah good times indeed, however there were some very humbling times as well. Of which, I’m also very grateful for. I needed those times. Sometimes, you need to be reminded of your reality. Soul searching and learning things about me that I necessarily didn’t like was oh so necessary. It was necessary for my growth as person. I have grown. My heart is changing. I’m not exactly where I want to be but if I focus on trying to grow, humility and working hard then I am on way to a pretty good year. So that’s where my focus is and that’s ultimately my new year’s resolution.

g’yeah

Thanks

Just Brilliant:The Works of Doctor Illingsworth

SelfSays — Wed, 28 Nov 2012 04:45:58 +0000

My fried Doc Illingworth, man so much I can say about the guy. Whether its video clips or tunes, he makes good stuff. How great is the homie well, yesterday he posted probably one of the greatest Facebook statuses, I have ever read.

So, There’s been these posts that start something to the effect of this

“In response to the new facebook guidlines…”

I’m sure, you’ve seen it.

People post them under the notion that it protects the use of anything you post share photos etc anything, you share on facebook without your consent. Not gonna lie I’ve re-posted these myself on some better safe than sorry blindly doing so nonetheless.

Doc’s take on the whole thing was probably was one of the smartest downright funny things I have ever read. Without further due a few words from my friend…

The funny was brought.

As a bonus
here’s a sampling of that music of his i mentioned earlier.
Launch by ILLingsworth

Lyrics 4 Rollercoaster

SelfSays — Tue, 09 Oct 2012 18:02:53 +0000

This Rollercoaster is starting to feel
Mo fun hop in a passenger seat
And get you some
Whooa oaah get you some x2

From Life
Smiley faces and frowns
The ups and downs to this raps music
The ebb and flow with words and sounds
Arranged in matter allowing me to rearrange space
Seeing my fate reflected on my face I’m cheesing the sign
Of an inkling of magic found amongst all of the static
How much fun I am having in this moment
You cannot even imagine and further more fathom for that matter
Nah look y’all no hands
learn to embrace know that it’s a part of a bigger plan
there is a settling sensation inside that sentiment
serenity continue on with your sweet serenade ay
soul serenade oh how I adore the way your play your string
sing for me sweet something for eternity internally
I internalize the sunrise

This Rollercoaster is starting to feel
Mo fun hop in a passenger seat
And get you some
Whooa oaah get you some

Is this real life or is this fantasy
Maybe this is some sort of
beautiful amalgamation
creating the reality
inhabiting my final destination this is a place of
total concentration
in effort to move with the best foot forward
phase 2 transitioning
more than a mere change in scenery
in the literal sense a change in how I see it
therefore making a change within
furthermore making a change in my surroundings
a change scenery happens to follow accordingly
so I move just like I should knowing that I could
win as free as the oxygen ingested
the atmospheric blend I inhale then I exhale
set sail guided by the Wind/Win
the compass is so telling
the feeling is overwhelming let the games
begin

This Rollercoaster is starting to feel
Mo fun hop in a passenger seat
And get you some
Whooa oaah get you some x2

If its one thing I can say
I know that I’m on my way

cop the tune here Let it Go
