So, back to the regular layout and song. I had a good laugh with the "Hi Hater" stuff, though. I just realized how fucking simplistic that song is. Lyrically, the song is trash. I don't know, it's just catchy I guess. I hated it when I first heard it. I still pseudo hate it right now. Green Light, by John Legend not Beyonce, shits on that song. Speaking of music, hopefully my shit will be up and running soon. I just have to come up with the money for a new cord. I found out exactly what was wrong, so I'm happy. That will do me some good, you know? Maybe I won't be so tense and depressed-like if I could let out all of my frustrations on a song like I usually do. I have some ill shit in the works right now, though. I think I'll start writing a song after I blog. That should be - interesting. I have a lot of things to talk about and I'm ready to let it all go.

Hm, yesterday I was kind of flattered. I rapped a few of my newer songs to the dudes in my squad. Like, these guys aren't anything close to my style. They rap about money, clothes, parties, and the typical new hip-hop stuff. That's why I seperate myself from the collective when it comes to doing a song. We don't have the same type of style or the same content. I'm more of a lyrical dude with a message behind every verse I write. I try to do songs like them to fit in with their projects and stuff, but it's hard for me to do it if I'm not feeling it. Either way, I let them hear some beats that my boy V and I made. Sidebar: Thanks Ki, I knew which one to use(me or I). Anyway, when I rapped the songs they were so impressed. I was certain that they'd diss the songs and say they were soft. I was compared to Lupe Fiasco and Jay-Z in the same breath. Usually that bothers me, but coming from them - it's a GREAT compliment. Then to be compared to two artist that I look up too was great too. Then some dude that was like 35-40 or so asked me how old I was. I told him I'm 19 and he's like "Wow, only 19? By the time you're 21 you'll be crazy. You're crazy now, but I'd expect you to be famous by 21. You just have to put your stuff out there. You have the talent." - Damn, I was so cheesy over that.

I'm gearing up for this long stretch of a lot of months coming up. I'm kind of worried about it, but I know we'll be good. I just have to stop being such an asshole about stuff. I also have to start being on the other end of the phone calls. You know? Place a phone call once in a while instead of waiting to be called. Lol at this part of "All Of Me" being on right now. I'm telling you, Joe Budden has the best timing ever in the world. Thanks Joey, you're great.
