Music and the Ego
I suppose it’s obvious I’ve been going through some weird times with music over the last year. It started with some feelings of resentment and anger about deals that didn’t work out and promises not kept. I had become very wrapped up in the “business” side of things, although not in the sense of wanting to make money necessarily. I have had some extraordinarily good luck with getting to release my music on some reputable labels and I guess that sort of gave me some unrealistic expectations about how things would be. I felt like if I wasn’t able to continue releasing music regularly, that I would be a failure. I also felt that if my music wasn’t well received by “the scene”, then that would also make my efforts futile.

Bodega/Real Ting with Juakali
This is a bit of a late pass, but I figured I should post it up anyway. Juakali and I played at a Surefire event last year sometime and when I played the early version of this tune, he sounded awesome over it. So he decided to record some vocals. It turned out really well I think. The EP it came out on is available here:

Big Up Magazine 2nd Bday
I’m playing records (thats right, vinyl only) this Friday at the Big Up Magazine bday party in San Francisco. It’s been a long time since I’ve had a gig and it will probably be the last one for a while. Should be fun! Hope to see some friends there: http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=154489701255946&index=1
