Great Morning to ya! Just stopping through to let you know I’ll be back Monday or possibly the weekend. Hope you noticed I picked up on posting recently, I’m still working out my newest schedule, but it looks like I’ll be able to get in two or more post per week this winter.

I have a few projects going and new artist waiting in line. I am very excited about all the things going on in my life. I’ve been learning a lot of important things in college which have inspired me to write more here. See how things can work out when you jump in there and go for it! I am 98% in my first course, and I hope this is motivation for all of you in high school or college. It was difficult managing time for a minute but it is surely working out.

I wanted to post about music today…but instead I am re writing my final essay. This reminds me to remind you to SAVE YOUR WORK OFTEN! I was doing my last edits late last night, and I made a horrible mistake…. saved over a whopping ten page essay! BOOO..I was almost in tears, almost felt worst than loosing a hot beat lol… This morning I can smile because I am looking on the bright side. Maybe the one I spent all those hours and days on was not the “A” paper?….

I have all my notes and my outline, and I pretty much can go somewhat from memory. I am working in MLA format, so if anyone needs assistance with an MLA essay or discussion questions let me know. I’ve offered help to all for a small “donate what you want to paypal” .

Well I better get to typing as the essay is due tonight…talk to you all soon!

How are all of you? It’s a beautiful Monday here on the east coast, almost like we skipped spring and went straight to summer

I mentioned that I would be doing a write up on “Elevate Hope Foundation”. I have started this post about 3 times. I had to work through some tough memories, but finally my words can flow smoothly.

About Elevate Hope Foundation

Mission: (used by permission from the official EHF website)

Elevate Hope Foundation (EHF) is dedicated to providing abused and abandoned children an alternative method of therapy through music and the arts, and funding special services and programs that assist the needs of these children using these fundamental methods.

Co-founded in 2001 by entertainer Sheila E. and business manager, Lynn Mabry, EHF supports existing programs of their beneficiaries through monetary funding and in-kind donations e.g. musical instruments, art supplies, and work stations complete with computers, keyboards and applicable instructional software.

Over 65 percent of our grant dollars will be invested at the local community level. Outside financial support fills a viable niche in light of more conservative funding offered by the federal government.

Foster care systems and outreach programs alike share the urgent demand for funding and unite in this strong commitment to serve the needs of disadvantaged children…..continue reading complete Mission, Challenge, and Solution

Testimonials & Mission

I am honored to present a foundation that I believe in. A lot of times we hear about different programs and become skeptical about helping. I can honestly say The Elevate Hope Foundation is built on spiritual values and lead by Love. Sheila E. has helped many children over the years. She treats her fans practically like family. Although EHF was not officially established at the time, my life was personally affected by Sheila’s movement. I will share some of my story with you:

Good morning all, I’ve had a very emotional, and busy last few days. I lost my Aunt Emma from Ny on Sunday morning, and K Swift passed away early Monday morning. Everyone experiences troubled times, it is good in these times to turn to the gifts of the soul.

At the end of working on the set of Season 5 of Hbo’s “The Wire”, I invested in this ^ beginners guitar. It will be a year in October, but I only know a few notes. I had to make the transition back to music from 2 straight years of film work. After a few months reorganizing my lab, connecting all the modules, and hardware to my DAW, I began to study music theory. In April I got the site up and running, and now blogging is a part of my career.

I used to be on my local scene heavy. You could find me at almost every event, battle, and hip hop function weekly. Between 2004 and 2006 I have worked with over 60 artist and my beat game was booming. I was making about 4 or 5 beats daily, and on just about every mixtape or major local cd that came out. Folks locally have been wondering where I’ve been lately..is she still doing beats?….Is she still doing film work?… The answer is yes to beats, and no to film work (at least for a while).

I was explaining to Sol Eternity, a long time mentor of mine, that my focus is different than before. I think he was assuming I was giving up from his response. What he didn’t hear is what my site reveals. The Music Industry relies heavily on the internet for survival. Here I am making my mark, I am no longer frantically chasing a place called “The Industry”, I realize that I am in “The Industry”. I am making a decent living doing what I love, right here with people just like me.

What this realization has done, is open doors for more musical freedom. When I was ” a hungry, greedy, starving” producer..lol… my feet weren’t quite planted on solid ground. Today I feel I am able to create freely,and I have more time with the artist I produce for. I have more time to learn new things about music, and I have more time to teach what I am learning. If I had not done the music hiatus while on film sets, this site would still be under construction, and I would still be on the merry go round of::: beats,studio, shows, sell beats, spend the money at shows, beats, shows, studio,spend money on an outfit for the shows..etc etc… I guess life said “STOP”….and now I am on a much better and more smooth path.

Let The “Son” Shine In…

Charles Dickens:
“This is a world of action, and not for moping and droning in”
Musicians, artist, mothers, fathers, sisters,brothers, family and friends…please be inspired! If you are feeling discouraged in life, it is time to re direct that negative energy into something positive. This quote is a simple way to do so. The energy it takes to think about what you are lacking or to replay a depressing occurrence can be turned positive with effort. Do something active…go for a walk..clean the back yard..write..read..do some jumping jacks..do something to take your thoughts off that dark “blotch” in mind….stay active, stay positive,…stay inspired…
