Hypocritical Much???

I don`t want you to want me, cause I know one day you`ll want more

I don`t want you to need me, when I`m walkin` out the front door

I don`t want you to love me, cause I have no heart to love

But I guess I`m just a hypocrite, cause I want all the above

Work Hard If You Wanna Play Hard

So I was havin` a convo with my boy Alex the other day about this music grind. He was tellin` me about his meetin` with Rocwilder he had a little over a week ago. And he was tellin` me some of the advice dude was givin` him. One that stood out to me was "as an unsigned artist, you need to work like you`re goin` to put out an album every 3 months" or somethin` close to that. And I thought about that in retrospect to how established acts go long periods of time without puttin` out material (i.e. Eminem, Dr. Dre, Pharoahe Monch, Heltah Skeltah, etc.) in contrast to how often a newer artist has to stay out in the public eye just to keep the audience`s attention. We have it hard as a new artist tryin` to get heard lol. But I love every minute of it. Besides the fact that stayin` on the grind is only gonna help me get better at what I do, why would I complain about havin` to actually make music if that`s what I wanna do as my career? And the drive to want to actually be heard and spread out further than my hometown makes me take up that "album every 3 months" challenge with open arms. Even Wayne works that hard and look at how big he is. That`s the dedication I think you need to have to this music business if you wanna make it somewhere. So instead of look at it as a challenge. Look at is as preparation for when you get that chance or that break. A lotta people say "the lucky ones make it". Well to me. Luck with when preparation meets opportunity and you make the best out of it. With that said. Be on the lookout for my first solo mixtape which is goin` to be a compilation of my older material datin` back from when I first started recordin` up until a couple years ago. The concept behind it is to show my growth as an artist. A few people have asked me "aren`t you afraid that they`ll hear that old stuff and think that`s what you`re still only capable of now?". My answer is no. I have the material to back that up too. I just want to give the people that listen to my music the chance to experience the not so paved roads of me as an MC lol. I`ll keep y`all updated on that. DIGI!
