Foundational Elements

The people in our lives are the foundational elements, on which we stand. The brick and the mortar that binds us, together strengthening us. It is when those elements, the brick and mortar, the people, are missing, that we crumble and breakdown into rubble.

TEAM?!

Team, is defined as... A group of people organized to work together to achieve a common goal! When you are surrounded by a talented bunch of people, who may not share the same dream, but can share a common goal to meet the desired end result, everything should be fairly easy, right? Wrong... when your "team" lacks the individual effort needed, the collective effort is diminished due to the lack of poorly motivated team members. "Team what... TEAM WORK"?! ~Peoria Star

All Independent Artist!

As an independent producer/artist, I am continuously searching and attempting to network with other independent artist & producers. Unfortunately, many of the artist that I come across seem to only work with people they know. Many of the producers I meet, tends to be one dimensional and only work with the same few artist... producing the same sound, over and over. As a producer, I believe it is my job to find the right beat for best artist; in hopes of collaborating to lay down dope lyrics over a dope beat, creating a timeless CLASSIC.

A record producer is an individual working within the music industry, whose job is to oversee and manage the recording (i.e. "production") of an artist's music. A producer has many roles that may include, but are not limited to, gathering ideas for the project, selecting songs and/or musicians, coaching the artist and musicians in the studio, controlling the recording sessions, and supervising the entire process through mixing and mastering. Producers also often take on a wider entrepreneurial role, with responsibility for the budget, schedules, and negotiations... In most cases the music producer is also a competent arranger, composer, musician or songwriter who can bring fresh ideas to a project!!! Need fresh beats?

Is It Just Me???

As I watch the news, seeing what’s happening around the world today. Oftentimes, the stories reported become very unbearable, and I often wonder… “Is it just me, is the world fucked up, or is it just me”? We live in a world where the most precious things are taken for granted. We have inverted the value of life with material things; further displacing the reality of what success is in and to our community. At an alarming rate our boys are not allowed to grow into men; our women equate beauty, with fake accessories and half-naked “selfies”. We listen to preachers selling “jesus” to turn a profit, when it’s going to take a lot more to help us get saved. We are disliked and stereotyped by those whose children copy and emulate our cultural style. Yet and still we are the reason for our own failures and short-comings. It is up to each individual person to be better, to introduce themselves to new things, to learn and achieve higher academics, to be a more productive and less destructive member of society… until then, “I’m wishing I could fly away”.

Dare to be DIFFERENT...

My inbox, email, and my phone is full of artist that claim to be different, but each track that I listen to sounds just like all the other BULLSHIT, that's on the radio and T.V... There is no limit to what I can do, but there is a limit to how much BULLSHIT that I can listen to. That's why I only deal with SERIOUS artist that push themselves beyond the known limits of todays, ratchet auto-tune filled music, which plagues our society. I LMAO at all you rappers that talk about balling and how much money you have but can't afford a $200 beat!!! STOP LYING, GET REAL, and BE DOUBLE GREAT!!!

Thanks, for NOTHING...

Its crazy how you can have "something" that can, will, and does benefit everyone that you associate with. Its even crazier how people that you may consider "friends" and "family" are the one's that support you the least, and they are usually the one's who want to keep all that you create for themselves. Unfortunately my greatest quality, provokes a terrible emotion, because its not in my nature to be selfish. Naturally, I over extend myself because, I love to help those in need! Those in need tend to be the people around me, taking advantage of my kind nature, and talent. In return, they are the same people who obstruct and delay my progress... and in the same breath, they'll say: "you're my nigga, you're my bro, I love you sun, bro you're super talented, don't forget about the little people"... These are the same people that go out and buy $60 hats, $200 dollar shoes, loud, liquor, but will not buy a cheap, high quality beat, to support me... I smh with great disappointment, because I support all of you whole heartedly and unconditionally. Thanks, for nothing! Peoria Star

FINAL WARNING... YOUR LACK OF SUPPORT...

Everyday, I'm up and out grinding, networking, trying to reach my goals. I try to endure throughout everything without being overcome by the pressures of the pursuit of my ever elusive dreams. I have laid my foundation, on which I am built, but my skinny frame lacks the necessary support needed to withstand the hard blowing winds of discouragement and defeat. Out of all of my "friends" and "family" I am still the only one who supports Peoria Star... Out of all of you with Facebook pages and Android phones; only 7 of you have became a fan of mine on my ReverbNation music profile, only 8 of you have downloaded my free mobile app. What angers me the most is that everything Peoria Star is $FREE, it'll only cost you $10.minutes of your time. Truthfully the lack of support from my "friends" and "family" only motivates me... because I believe in me... and just because you say you support me, none of you show that support... smh @ you non Peoria Star supporters... "I'M WORKING SO HARD JUST TO BE A STAR, SO I CAN SHINE BRIGHT AND BE SEEN FROM AFAR"... ~Peoria Star
