Undergraduate Research Fair

So your boy got to participate in the 1st Annual York University Research Paper Fair.  Now before I even summarize my experience let me just say, that as a teen I averaged a 66.6 percent durning my high school days.  And now, after a certain high school teacher said “Maybe you should do a trade. English is not for you”, I am smokin’ these assignments in university.

Anyway…the experience was pretty cool.  Met some nice people and even learned some new things.

But it was not very encouraging to see any other black males.  I mean what is it?? Why do we not care about things such as these? Is it cause we think they strictly for other races and not ourselves.  Cause I tell ya there were cute black girls participating!  I don;t know, it’s weird the higher I rise in my studies and job the less and less I see of myself…

Tomorrow get ready to Learn Sumthin’!! Gonna give a quick summary of my essay.

Ok…by now you probably have noticed that I make music, if you haven’t, do yourself a favour and check me out here:

What does music mean to me?  Well I won’t go into the whole Sydney Shaw (Brown Sugar reference) spiel, but I can say the feeling I get is like none other.

 

Working with my big homie Lone Monk aka Christian Calderia is a beautiful thing.  I can remember often times where I’ll enter a session and he’ll play something he had been working on or he’ll email me a track and I’ll tell ya what I always end up with a who fart face (translation the beat is good!).  Make sure you check my dude!

He is the primary go to guy when it comes to production and he produced the majority of my album “Pending”

 

Fyi..

Starting now I am going to make a conscience effort to do one of these a day!  Till next time.

 

 

University…

I’ve been attending university for 4 years now.  I know what your thinking “congrats on your graduation”…nope I have been going part time, still got a bunch of years and credits to go.  :Kayne Shrug: it’s all good I am in no rush to be an adult and grow up… even though I’m a grown ass man.

 

A pointer for all my people that are all about improvement, I noticed a significant increase in my grades once I started taking piano lessons.  I know somewhere there is some study about student’s grades improving when learning an instrument.

 

It works!!!

 

Pending is so close now…(my album if you wondering)
