Help the Haitians!

Haiti Relief and Development

On January 12, a series of earthquakes measuring 6.5 to 7.3 on the Richter scale devastated Haiti. The American Red Cross is working with its partners in the global Red Cross and Red Crescent network, including the Haitian Red Cross, and other partners to assist those affected by this disaster.

Your gift to the American Red Cross will support emergency relief and recovery efforts to help those people affected by the earthquake in Haiti. Assistance provided by the American Red Cross may include sending relief supplies, mobilizing relief workers and providing financial resources and recovery.

Donations can be made in the following manner:

You may text "HAITI" to "90999" on your personal mobile phone and a donation of $10 will be given to the Red Cross to help with relief efforts.

Is there anything better than...

Than writing a song while in a parking lot or on the road?

If so, someone let me know!

 

Now granted, I haven't fullfilled my dream of doing National tours or anything, but I swear my best ideas come to me when I'm either chillin' in the parking lot or on the way somewhere. I usually load up my USB Drive and phone with new beats I got sent or dl'ed at some point. For whatever reason, doing that gets me in that mood and I either start spitting or I pull out the phone (Touch Pro 2 or Sidekick, depending which I'm using at the time) and I can prolly pump out 4 songs in full. Sometimes maybe all verses. 

 

Either way, "I'm in mah' zone!"

 

Anyway, self praise aside, I do  have something serious to touch on for a second; the Earthquake in Haiti. Not only because it was devastating, but it hit extremely close to home.  Not going to bother going into full-on detail of what's going on because that's what the internet and your local news channels are for, trust me, ain't hard to find the story.

 

What I WILL do though is encourage any and every to donate something to help our fellow man. I'll be doing so, you should too.

 

Till nxt time,

Well, that was unexpected...

So, it seems that the response that I'm getting so far on "By My Side" (produced by Open Sound Productions, who again, has a whopping turn out on this project so far) is better than thought ...now if I can only get a successful video shoot done (...hold on, breath being held....okay - done). So for those of ya'll that are feeling the track, feel free to spread the proverbial word!



Anyway, as far as collaborations go, I think I've hit my limit on this one -- already in the works are tracks with Salvdor ("Back It Up"), Rylo ("All Night"), and southern counterpart Synai will be joining the party as well on an untitled-not-yet-thought-of track. Of course, they'll be joining the tracks I've already done with Kry ("Way of the Hustle") Priceless ("Goin' 4 Gold") and No Play ("Hurting @ Home (2nd version)").


I already hear some of you muttering to yourselves, "But Koffee! WTF yo! That's a lot freakin' people!"


To you I reply;


...yes, that's quite the bunch....


and no..I have not gotten lazy...


Least I don't think so anyway .


Ha!


Till nxt time!
PS: If you still haven't heard "By My Side" hit the player!
