In studio session with Nate Butler

























   Last night I had the pleasure of sitting in on an in studio interview of super producer, songwriter, and artist Nate Butler. This interview was shot by Futuristic Vintage TV. A native of Baltimore, Maryland, Nate Butler has worked with multi-platinum artists such as Luther Vandross, Pink, Christina Milian, The Cheetah Girls, 3LW, and others.  He has been apart of 45 million records sold worldwide. 

   Nate Butler is an advocate for creativity. He believes that everyone was born with the ability to create, so producers should always push the envelope and strive to make their own sound. This speaks to me soul, because I have always pushed myself to be creative as possible. It is truly a blessing and  an honor to have a producer, songwriter of his caliber listen to my work, and provide honest, helpful feedback. I look forward to learning as much from Nate Butler as possible...

Black Boy Fly

























"I wasn't jealous of the talents they got, I was terrified they'd be the last black boys to fly"- Kendrick Lamar.

"For wherever there is jealousy and selfish ambition, there you will find disorder and evil of every kind."  James 3:16
Sometimes we feel jealousy when we see others succeed. When we see other black boys fly, because it is so rare to see black boys succeed, but don't alow yourself to be overtaken by fear and jealousy. Don't be jealous. DON'T BE A HATER. Remain faithful because we're all gonna fly. Black boy fly...

Funny Valentine...



God is Love. Love is God. This is for all those that believe in God. Don't forget that, because without God we would not have love. Don't be bitter. Enjoy this day and make it positive like you should each day. This doesn't have to be about being in a relationship. Be thankful that at the end of the day someone loves you, God. When no one else loves you he will always love you...
