This was done extremely well. Basically shows the minutes leading up to, during, and after the crash for different characters, at both different and same respective locations. Thanks Joe.

This was sent to me as an attachment by Nicholas Kirsten from The IMF with the subject saying “it’s been too long.” They say a picture is worth a thousand words, well this one, and all of their pictures are worth at least a thousand laughs. I played a show in LA at the Troubador and met this dude outside who bought a CD from me and said I’m going to be in touch with you. I said “ok” and that was that. Sure enough he hit me up with his website link and when I checked out their work, I instantly became a fan of The IMF collective. Every picture is like a movie. Check out the calendars (’09 is epic) on their site www.impsofmargeandfletch.com.

Last week I went to the west coast (SF & LA) with a very special someone for what we would essentially call a LIFETOUR. It was my first time in years without being on tour playing shows, or recording while out west. We ate good food, visited friends, saw some cool shit, and did a lot of shopping. All of which facilitates the ideal headspace to be in as an artist. Went out there with some great reccomendations from Chris Palko, who I owe a thank you to, for some fine dining in Napa Valley and got to have a dope mexican dinner with my WM brother Aesop Rock and his wife Allyson in San Francisco. Aes hooked it up with a piece of hardware with pads that I will be getting busy on very soon. After a short but active stint in SF, we took it to LA where we visited my extended family out west: Barmak Badei , his wife Sukari, and their baby girl, Shahla; who I am crazy about. Barmak is the founder of SCIFEN, the clothing company I was sponsored by and worked extremely closely with during the Scifentology I & II releases. As much as this was a time to enjoy life, it was also a time for creative inspiration and some further meetings/discussions of some very exciting things that will be taking place this year. Stay tuned.

Yesterday, Dark Void came out for XBOX & PS3. From what I understand, it is one of the most anticipated games of 2010. RACER did a remix of the original music from the game and samples a clip of my voice. It’s pretty rad. I uploaded it to Fairtilizer and you can download it for FREE…HERE

ALSO, PEEP THE NEW AND IMPROVED PRO FAIRTILIZER PLAYER!

stay tuned for pictures from my west coast excursion coming tomorrow*

I watched all the promos, this one gets me the most amped.

we’ve transitioned into the new age, where the state of the art Fairtilizer player and website will forge past social networking sites with sub par music players, and bring you the latest and greatest from myself and others. Still waiting on my customized pro-player from them and when that happens, YOU WILL C THE HUSTLE. In the meantime enjoy the ride and FREE song downloads via the little arrow pointing down on the player below or in the sidebar…
