CREATIVE FLOW TURNED ON...
WORKING ON MY ALBUM...
I ALWAYS LOVED "NY State Of Mind" ON NAS' Illmatic...ON OF THE RAWEST, ILLEST JOINTZ, TO ME....SO, I'M MAKING MY JAZZY-SOULFUL VERSION...PLAYING EVERYTHING WITH ALL THE FEELING...THE JOYS, PAINS, FEARS, HOPES....EVERYTHING FROM HAVING TO LIVE, SURVIVE, AND BE TRAPPED IN A VICIOUS HOOD ENVIRONMENT....SO FAR, THE FENDER RHODES SOLO SEEMS TO BE SPEAKING IT, RAW....LIKE NAS' RHYME.... Jeremy ....I MAY ASK YOU TO GET YOUR SHRED ON FOR A VERSE....REALLY BRING THAT FEELING OUT, THRU SOME HARD-EDGE GUITAR....YA KNOW???.....THIS JOINTZ IZ GONNA BE KRAAAAAZY DOPE
AND THEN, THERE'S THIS SONG....I REMIXED OR REMADE A JOINT OUT OF MY SIS, Cole Jonique 's VOCALS TO AN OLD SLOW SONG OF HERS....I KNOW SHE'S PERFORMED IT, BUT NOT SURE IF SHE'S EVER ACTUALLY RELEASED IT....SO, WITH THE LYRICS SHE WROTE...AND THE VOCALS SHE RECORDED...AND THE WAY I REARRANGED IT ALL, WITH MY FUNK MUSIC....IT SOUNDS REALLY CLOSE TO SOMETHING THAT POSSIBLY GEORGE CLINTON WOULD HAVE CREATED WITH THE BRIDES OF FUNKENSTIEN OR PARLET....IT'S VERY FUNKY...A BIT ODD....BEAUTIFUL AND CLASSIC....IF SHE GIVES ME THE PERMISSION TO USE IT, I'M GONNA ASK MY BIG BROTHER...THE ORIGINAL "Quazar", Kevin Goins TO LAY A FUNKY RHYTHM GROOVE, ALL THRU IT....AND THEN KILL SOME LEAD, NEAR THE END....AND THAT WILL BE BONIFIDE P-FUNKALICIOUS....LOL
THEN, I HAVE MY RENDITION OF "Miss Sun" BY Bozz Skaggs....GOT MY KEYS ON THERE, OF COURSE....MY MANZ, John Gist KILLIN' IT, ON THE SAX....GOT STRINGS LACING THE WHOLE TRACK....AND I'M JUST WAITING ON GREAT VOCALS AND HARMONIES, AS THE CHERRY ON TOP....
HOPEFULLY...GOD WILLING, I'LL HAVE THE BLESSING OF AN R&B/CLUB LEGEND TO SAAAAAAANG THIS CLUB/HOUSE TRACK INTO THE GROUND....LOL....AND THERE'S MUCH MUCH MORE....I MAY EVEN GET UP THE NERVE TO ASK MY MANZ, LIL BROVA PETE ROCK, IF HE'LL ALLOW ME THE BLESSING OF SOME CUT, SCRATCH, TRANSFORMING, WITH FINESSE ON THIS ONE SPECIAL JOINT, THAT HE ACTUALLY INSPIRED....WE'LL SEE....I GOTTA PRAY ON THAT ONE....HAHAHAHA
BUT, THIS ALBUM IZ GONNA BE THE MOST, FROM COAST TO COAST....MY OWN BRAND OF JAZZ, HIP-HOP, REGGAE, FUNK, AND SOUL....ALL COOKED UP IN ONE GUMBO POT....FEELING GREAT ABOUT IT....CAN'T WAIT TO FINISH AND RELEASE IT, SO SOMEBODY CAN HEAR IT ALL.....OK....LET ME GET BACK TO WORK, ON THIS MUSIC
PEACE & LOVE 2 ALL
