RANDOM SHIT # 1 [Sat. 5/12/12 3:28 AM]

Another late ass night.... Grinding with this music shit as usual and of course I been thinkin..... It seems like the more my music is being heard, and the closer I seem to get to my dreams and shit, the more "ostracized" I feel lol.... They say it's lonely at the top but I aint even scraped what would be the bottom of the top yet ya heard me lol..... My focus on this is crucial and I finally feel for a change I'm on the right path, but the shit sucks.... You always wonder, are they listening? Do they feel it? Do they fuckin get it? All I could do is continue being what I been known to be.... Me..... And yea it would be nice to be with my ppls or a boo jank and shit, but I guess it aint my time.....

THE ORIGIN OF THE "MY ULTERIOR MOTIVES VOL. 1" MIXTAPE PT. 2

As far as with the content and the story lines with- in the music, what makes it all real?

I have two primary reasons with the direction of this mixtape. As weird and fucked up as this may sound, the only beef I have at the moment is with myself. For a long time I hated myself for being who I really was and who I was portraying myself to be. A lot of these angry or malevolent songs that I have or towards myself. I hate showing any signs of weakness and I really hate when other people may perceive that, mistaking my kindness for weakness. I'm a fun dude and I clown a lot to cover all the scars. Second reason is my click aka GLATT. It's only four of us but my niggaz is no joke bruh lol. Out of the four I get in the least trouble, but they got my back as I do theirs. No question. Loyalty and Respect run strong in our group. That's one of the main reasons why you hear me shout them out so much in my tracks. If I eat then my niggaz gone eat too and they are the same with me. I couldn't have been placed in this shit hole with better people.

THE ORIGIN OF THE "MY ULTERIOR MOTIVES VOL. 1" MIXTAPE PT. 1

What made me name this up and coming mixtape "My Ulterior Motives"?

This mixtape has a very deep and hidden meaning behind it. I chose to call it "My Ulterior Motives" for a few reasons. It's like we spend so much time, actually lemme take that back, "I" spent so much time throughout my life trying to please people to the point to where my reasons for doing things were not because I wanted to do them, but because I felt it was right. Catch me some brownie points and shit. After awhile, I started having issues identifying with myself as a genuine person. I always knew that when it came to my potnahs I always kept it real, but that was about it. I spent just about my whole life lying to my family members about who I really was. I always gave that innocent personality because we were a church going family, but I was far from anything of the sort. I'm a rebel. I'm different. I'm random. I never could figure out with as much trouble I would get in at school, church or ANYWHERE that I was, why they couldn't see that. For almost a year I've been planning, thinking, growing and writing. I'm not done with the metamorphosis yet, but I'm almost there. Origin of the title.
