Eddy Maduko

I was blessed to work on some stuff with Eddy Last year when we finally both had the time to do some recording. He's an amazing poet and just has that thing, you don't know how to explain it but you can feel it when its in the air. Anyway these are the two tracks we did. He layed down the vocals and I put together the backing music. lol Im sure he got soooo frustrated cause it took me ages to finish them--almost a damn year!![school just got in the way]--but finally got them done a little while ago (lol all the stuff i post on the blog is a little aged...gotta do some new work!) More to come soon! I still have some other poems we recorded and might do some work on them soon Untitled Zshare Public Servant Zshare

Mural

This is a mural I did in my building literally the night before I left school. lol its quite a funny story...I was supposed to be done by the end of februrary but school just got so crazy that I never finished it and for some reason no one cared. anyway I stayed up the whole night the day before I left to finish it. there is seriously a lot of pain put into this cause i was up since like 7am from the day before...graduation and all.. ah man good times are sometimes disguised in the most horrible moments. Anyway literally noone got to see it :(. I guess only ppl living there next year will get to...well in the flesh i mean. maybe thats how it should be...

MOS DEF!!

This album is really something. Some of the best hiphop Ive heard in a WHILE and possibly one of my favorite albums ever (I have to listen a few more times). I strongly advise everybody to pick it up. I know I will. Its just Art in the Rawest form, you can just feel how much went into it. Even when you cant understand it you can feel it. Mos man! Mos Def: History Ft Talib Kweli
