WHAA ? 3am ! Your kidding?!
Wow, what do I say about me. I know for sure, I'm an old school minded, traveling type soul, that hates stayin still too long. First started playin guitar around 12 or so. Dad had a 58 model Les Paul Jr. he let me play on. I went on to drive trucks across the U.S. for the next 2 decades. It was me all the way !! I developed a strong since of reading people within seconds of meeting them. Able to understand many types of people weather they from the east, west north south...I've met and befriended them all. Much of my music is reflections of my teen yrs and growing up in Southern California. Born in Riverside, Ca. in 1964, I was raised during a time of rapid changes to both the land, and the people of SoCal. Very racial, very ruthless. Music there was also in times of fast paced change. With MTV, many became labeled by the music they listened to. And anything to be noticed..lmao....I mean anything! makeup, pink hair, womens clothes on pretty boys..WTF! The music was lost then in the images of the 'artists'. Well, here we are, 2008, and the industry is in a rut. Seen it coming ya'll. Best thing that could happen IMO. It's time to quit the childs play and people get back to reality in music and all aspects of life as a responsible human. Start bringing to the stages, and potiums, the real people, unedited personalities of the artists and the souls they share with us in their music. I like it because it feels good, not because we got it shoved down our throats from media and greedy puppet masters with plans of 'dumbing you down' or using media to sell you something you really don't need but think you do. Best thing I've seen yet id this site and the revolution the idea is. It does bring the REAL back in music and DOES put on the stage the ones we really want to see there. Thanks for letting myself along with all the awsome talent here be heard. I'm having a blast knowing at my age even I may be given a chance to get my 15 min. I've yet to get in life THANKS TO ALL WHO HAVE PUT ME WITHIN THE RANKS I NEVER THOUGHT I BELONGED PEACE ALL

I just cant decide sometimes

To all of you,,,I just want to say, When two songs with so much substance, in talent, and in message, are put side by side, what do you do? Listen for the beat that drives you, or do you go with the honesty and thoughts of the songs topic.? When one sounds better for whatever reason, pro studio, more band members, but carries little or no message to it other than the title, ...do you go with the one presenting soul or heart felt lyrics, or go with the amazing musical talents presented with the pro mastering equipment? Does a song always fit in a certain genre?? If one is obvious enough to all that it is rap,...but the message is from the artists soul, where would it really belong? Very hard for me to judge so many of you guys with these thoughts trying to guide my votes....
