Ellllo from Tallinn

Pardon the Brittish accent, but I'm having the time of my life out here. I told myself I'd post at least once from every country...

Nicolay from Foreign Exchange is definitely one of my favorite producers, so it's only right that I give you guys an inside peek of how he lays it down in the studio.

Next stop is Stockholm, Sweden!

Summer plans: Euro Trip



I've officially decided to go on a 6 country Euro Trip for 6 weeks (in what SHOULD be the Summer where I release my first official mixtape/EP). I'm going to completely finish the project before I leave on June 18th, but probably won't put it out until early fourth quarter. I'm also taking 3 Summer classes, an online one while I'm in Europe, and two when I return from my trip.

We're starting off in Tallinn, taking a ferry to Stockholm, training to Prague, Paris, Amsterdam, Madrid and finally ending in Barcelona. 5-9 days in each location should be plenty of time... shout out to Raimond Noll, Christof Neuman and Lucius Noll!

Peace of Mind coming soon =]

Paying homage: Lyor Cohen

The boss of Warner Music sits down for an interview with Complex. It includes an interesting segment about how Drake was going to sign with them, but backed out to sign with his managers. He touches on topics like how the music industry is far more superficial nowadays than it was "back in his day".
