dj miss kittie - Enter The Sun Instrumental

This is the first of a series of tracks I've been working on, sans vocals.  That one I'll release later.  :)

Detox

What is needed, is needed.

Being that I am in the business of sport supplements and am in school for holistic nutrition, I have a great understanding of the consequences of overstimulating your body using.... well, stimulants (caffeine-based supplements).

For several months, I opted in taking caffeine-based products to give me energy to get through my days (yes, I know better).

But no more.

I told a client the other day that if he started a detox that I would complete one with him. So yesterday we started our 21-day cleanse and....


...Ohhhhh the caffeine withdrawal! EFF ME!!!!


Besides being tired, a clear indication of adrenal fatigue, and having a headache (headaches are pretty uncommon for me, so this royally sucks), I am drinking the most GOD-awful tea in the morning. *simulates puking*

But, as I said, what is needed, is needed... and a 21-day reset, in the grand scheme of things, is nothing.

So, hello day 2!

Stress (extra p remix) - Organized Konfusion

Funkdoobiest - Rock On

Another DJ Muggs production. 

Music from my youth.

You want to spend all day working on your goals.... only to be drained by something that is not, making you too tired to do anything.

Eff word.

DJ Muggs - Exploitation of Mistakes (Instrumental)

Madlib - Soon the New Day (Instrumental)

I could listen to this on repeat forever.

Blu Is The Truth

I'm tryna get to this place that my grandpa told me bout as a child
Told me only a few could make it and the fakest ain't allowed
Be a star out your game and aim above the clouds
and if you miss, you'll at least be amongst your own crowd
I smiled cause now I see what he meant
I see it in the eyes of mothers when they uncover there sins and repent
Gettin' closer to Jehovah on their own knees bent
Praying our mind-frames switch and these times change quick
But I hate to say it brother
You're just too stubborn, to stuck on them selves to ever think about others
They must uncover the scales on their eyes called lies
Leading to deaf them and blind like my mom told me bout
Where their sins get cleansed...Cause they bathe in flames
And the only route out is to shout out his name
I was trained to be a soldier for god
But as soon as I used my own thoughts I kinda got lost
In this smog called reality
Where hell is a fallacy and Heaven is a fantasy created by man
So don't believe in it
Came in here with nothing then your leaving with
Nothing so retreat from this
World of deceit
But for my people it's time to rise
Realize there's a heaven whether you think it's inside or in the sky
We gotta reach for it before it's gone eternally
And you stuck here below the heavens for eternity

*CHORUS* X5
Whose world is this
The...woooo-ooorld

[Verse 2]
Yo, somebody once told me that I'm already in hell
Freedom's a state of mind it's just a heart of me's in hell
I freed my slaved mind so the part of me's in hell
So even when it's hard to breathe a part of me inhales
So pardon me...
you gotta try hard to be yourself...

Cause you cant go to heaven being anybody else
I was raised by a reverend yet the lessons didn't help
Had to get em for myself
I was told hell is hot I had to fell it for myself

So I left home
As a young child smiling as I stepped on

Facin' a world butt naked without my wea-pon
I lost my smile and exchange put a vest on
Now that my premature stress is gone
I got problems to face as a man
I was told either you stand or you fall
long as you know that when you walk yo holding hands as a god
That alone can turn the dark
Into a walk in the park
I only talk from my heart
So open yours when your listening
Every man has his own heaven
The difference is the way that he envisions it so....
If you make your heaven picture-less

By the time you die you'll be drifting in an image-less field
So fill your heaven full of blessing thoughts
That's real

You could stress it or just let it walk
I got a question: If a man can make his own heaven
Then can he make his path to get to it too
I only spit fluid truth
And I spit it for the listeners so I'm spittin' to you
You say it's hell I say it's bullshit were getting through
Just think about it any man has his own heaven
But you gotta go through hell to be a man first
And understand 1st hell is what you choose to call the present
That's why you're going through what I just choose to call a stressin'
To tell you fools the truth
I don't feel it's what I'm destined
You can call it hell but brah...
I can say I'm below the heavens

Let's not call this a re-invention of self...

I haven't done the blog thing in a long time. And I didn't want to re-start it having my old posts up.

I wanted a fresh start

I don't care for some "professional", super flashy website. I'm not trying to be some super star. I just love music and wanted to share my findings and my doings. Doings and findings.

And this is the best way I can think of doing it.

Blogs have fewer limitations. There are no 140 character limitations, nor will I be bombarding folks with video posts on their newsfeed.

There are tracks I've been working on, goals I've been working towards, new technology I've been messing with & learning to use, and new experiences which I would love to share... in my own space.

This past year I lost inspiration and motivation to dj, create, study and train. My focus was off. I had new personal experiences that I didn't understand and had to learn and move on from.

However I have a new understanding of things... better focus... better outlook... goals and passion revived.

No bullshit...

On Sunday, I took my little portable turntable and went digging. I haven't gone digging in years.

Here's an overview of my purchases: Brothers Johnson, Barry White's Sings For Someone You Love and Barclay James Harvest's Gone To Earth

The joke of my search was the below Burton Cummings album cover.

Like, seriously??? Why is he singing to her vagina?????

.......

You know... neverrrrrminddddd....

This was NOT a buy. lol
