EVERYTHING IN LIFE IS NUMBERS.

Today while taking my morning walk (4miles) in Chicago's freezing cold weather and counting my blessings, I stopped into McDonald's for my daily cup of coffee. I notice a young brother with his book of poetry sitting in a booth, I decided to speak to him, I asked if he's a poet, The young man said to me he's a rapper, I asked him if he had a demo, He replied that he has a mix tape on the street with a friend, I en turn ask him what was his style as an Artist, He replied that he's a lyricist and that he pattern his style after Lil Wayne & also he don't make dance music, Only the kinda music that you have to use your imagination to draw mental pictures etc. I began to pass my knowledge to this young brother about my experience with the music BUSINESS! and the steps I think he should take as an aspiring artist. I began to explain to this young brother to identify his style! and to offer something different to music & his future buying audience. To always be aware and ready for the technology curve, I said to him never be the inventor of something that won't sell! always keep a open mind about idea's in your field & always know where your music catalog is! (very important) get a honest reputable music manager,attorney and accountant & never be afraid to asks questions be ado er! Never expect someone to do your work for you and never give up keep pressing ON! never depend on someone to make you only you can make you! keep all your bases covered etc, after we parted ways I began to walk home and I thought about people that we meet along the way, I began to think about the saying everything in life is numbers. It's true, you have to be in line with the universe! You have to embrace your higher self and love your life everything must line up! I began to see that first impressions is 1% of the numbers game 89% is work 1% is failure and 9% is the rest of the mix (listening, understanding, believing, hearing, seeing, etc.) first impression is the chance you take in life and being excepted & respected by your peers!

Knowledge is Power & GOD is LOVE
