If I actually had people who read my blog yet, they would probably think that I have nothing to do, as I am in the process of creating my third extensive blog within the last twelve hours. So, I was speaking to my brother Messiah, and I almost forgot how much he inspires me to not only stay on my grind, but to own it. In case you don't know, Messiah is a LYRICIST. Point blank period. Of course we are not biologically related, but he is def my brother from another mother. Since we met @ THE MECCA ( That's Howard University for you less informed ;-p) we had a immediate connection, we were roommates the summer of 06, and from that perspective, I really got to observe the intricacies of his blessing. Not to mention we had a lot in common, from being West Indian, both writing & both being LEO's :) Anyway, he trusted me with the publicist responsibilities of his career, and GOD allowed that to blossom into more exposure of his gift. I am blessed to be apart of the "Royal Alliance", shouts to Black Ice...anyway, I was looking in the archives and I found one of his earlier pieces titled "I Gotta Write", and it was before I heard this piece that I was in a similar funk of "non-writing", this song definitely lit the fire to that crockpot called inspiration, and the juices of creativity that had stewed and marinated were finally able to be released and it is through this that I hope to reaffirm my renewed commitment to written expression, as well as any other people who may have that writer's block. I would post more of his stuff, but no one really reads this yet, and most of the people that I know, already know of him...anyway... enjoy...
P.S. A Thousand apologies for the digital delay, but focus on listening :)
