At some point in life we all get to that point where we couldn't give a shit anymore, I've been here for a while now, you just didn't know about it (unless you personally know me) so how did it come around, that story is way to long to into as well so we will skip that to, lets just say my temper has reverted back to the old me (not good, i can feel my jaw clicking away as i type) in the sense that enough is enough. sick of companies who think they have a hold over the independent person when they actually rely on us for creativity and marketing, yet when you approach them they shut you down, but on the other hand when they want something they open the doors to you just to bend you over and rape you, well enough is enough and here's the example, a company (quite well known but i wont name drop) have asked me for some work, i gave them what they wanted, but like a big company they wanted more and all the ideas with it (without paying) they thought they were doing me a favour by opening a door for me, lets make one thing motherfucking clear if i want your door open I'd hit you up with a fucking shotgun, further more i ain't the one, I'm not blinded by bullshit i never have been.
So word to the wise if your a company trying to fuck us independent hustlers, don't, we made you so respect that and respect us,
p.s I'm sitting here with blocked ears, one fucking nostril, still working and trying to make things happen.
to all those that are independent, keep to your craft, your passion will guide you to greatness, love what you do, stay true.
M.O.B money over bullshit, get yours i got mine.

Things Happen For A Reason
so I'm guessing that by now you have built a picture of what I'm about? hows it looking? so this is what new/up to date etc the script for the Intern has been submitted, i will leave it in the fate of who has it. I'm 3 scenes away from finishing the 2nd book, slightly behind in the music thing but hey I'm human not a robot (Ok part machine) speaking with my partner in crime and the feed back for the mixtape is very good, and all those that have been downloading and banging it, thanks.
I've been encouraged to start doing some music videos, i don't know how i feel about that i would rather produce and direct even though i know it needs to be done, the hickup there is just getting the camera, yeah Ive been banging on about it but i still haven't got it, my money has been filtered through so many things, but i will, i know i know, stop it i can hear you.
Right so your saying what the fuck has that got to do with the title, its exactly what it means, i been knocked back, told I'm crap, said it will never been done, but Ive continued and ignored everything, my closest friend Emc said to me today that he was proud of me because he has known me from when i was 16 when we was down in ladbroke grove, hustling hard trying to get this all of the ground, and everything i have said i have done and against the odds, don't get me wrong i don't have that puff daddy money, but I'm rich in ways that money cant buy, so to those with dreams and passion for what they do, keep at it and remember these two powerful word for when the chips are down and times are rough just say "Fuck Them" this is your destiny, keep like minded people around your and your path will become clearer, another inspirational person of whom I have had the pleasure of knowing is Haraharan she is definitely a role model for the youth as well as women.
Things will never be easy, if it was everyone would be happy. don't pull on doors that read push.
Stay Creative and true to your craft, it doesn't matter what it is because its yours and no one can take that away from you.
P.s if they hate you it means there talking about you

The Interns
In 2007 i wrote a TV series called The Interns, i only wrote the one episode Titled Fishy Chips (ref to microchips that were dodgy) anyway this was in 2009, i wrote because I saw a opportunity and went for it, sadly no response came back for the company (isn't that always the case eh) so i decided to just sit on it, i have the ideas for the rest of the series but decided no to write them until i got an interest for the actual idea, so here we are 2011 and another opportunity has come about and i wasn't even looking this time, it kind of found me, i was looking for ways in how to get commissioning for films/projects and stumbled across a company that works hand in hand directly with TV companies and are looking for submissions for ideas, so as you expect, i sent in a log (detail description of the project) so i guess it now the waiting game, why tell you? its a valid lesson, the door that you want to open might not open for you at the time you want it to, this just means you haven't opened the door correctly, the signs are there for a reason, don't push on the door when it reads pull, hopefully you will all find the door that opens for you, in the meantime stay creative and positive, fingers crossed and i will keep you posted.
Regards.

Come And Get Me/Ready For War
I've been pissed off lately no reason in particular, just with society in general and not the the people, but the so called people who are suppose to represent the people, so in my anger and frustration I wrote a very blatant fuck you track towards those that let the people down. i cant tell you anymore but this, the production is completed, the lyrics are ready and it will be recorded and out by the end of this month on a free download, i want everyone to download it and have your middle finger cocked when you drive/ride a bike/going to work/on the train or wherever you guys are, sometimes enough is enough and what I'm saying is nothing you haven't thought of either.
on that note thanks for your attention,support, even just stopping by and reading this.

Back to Business
Hows it going, ok its 0040 am and I'm feeling much better (thanks for asking lol) I'm back on the writing, the task is to hit about 1000 words per night, just as a guideline but was told just let the story flow which makes more sense, anyway Ive hit a 10,000 mark and considering Ive taken 3-4 days of i think that's quite good. I can see the character developing, if you scroll back to previous entries you will see that this book is the first part of three even though its written second. then obviously there has to be a finale even though the first (second) book ends well enough, don't worry you ll understand when its all finished.
So whats up with that Gangsta shit huh? music is music i love and live it, the mixtape is banging and is getting some real love, there is 22 tracks on it so there is something for everyone, take what you feel is what i say, its music and its free so you can't really go wrong.
we will be working on a album next but there is no plans layed out, i guess the Farmboy camp will just start the production and we shall see where we end, however there is a current controversial political song which we are working on titled "get ready for war/come and get me" which has now been written four times, i think this will upset alot of people as the truth tends to do this, i cant tell you what its about, just think Public Enemy meets NWA and i think you will get the picture.
so that's the deal at the moment, tell a friend, download the mixtape and enjoy, there is more to come from myself, the team and the crew.
as always keep it locked keep it

Forever A Rude Motherfucker Because Of You
how you stereotype me is what you will get.

Pressing On
Ok so far were doing ok, (even though i have the flu and only one nostril to breathe out of)
The Mixtape - No compromise is getting the love it deserves so thank you all those that are helping to push it for the masses.
But because I've only been 80% fit Ive taken a pause on the book until Tuesday, I'm still on track and have sent a sample review to a friend of mine who's a book-aholic.
projects to hand: working with a new artists and hopefully be filming more in the new year, were back to back for the rest of the year, i think my highlight will be to actually have a holiday, all in all, were doing it and we love it, look out for KOCA. that's just a tip.

Peace.
