A few things that I noticed about this young man.

1. His following is deep!
2. Most are young white men
3. His songs knock
4. He seems like a really nice dude
5. His songs knock

I still have yet to listen to his stuff on a cd, but I shall. I took about 3 of them from him last night.

Meeting with this guy
IMG_4317
later on tonight. I am excited to say the least.

I hope I get to tell him the story about how I pussied out while on stage with him back in the late 80s.

My pops was a concert producer back then and I got to stand on stage while KRS 1, Scott La Rock and D Nice did their thing.

KRS asked if any one wanted to do the beat box.

I wanted to grab the mic and show my skillzzzz but NOPE I #failed

No mic grabbing for lil Mel. I just stood there and let some dude with a flat top fade get all the shine.

Oh well.

So tonight is my time to grab the mic and make shit happen!

Love me, hate me. *Shrugs shoulders*
Oh well!
All I can say is thanks for reading and peeping my flicks.

Come back soon ya hear??
