Ok so i was recordin the other day and came to the conclusion that im missin something...somethin is missin off of this album... the title "Lyfe After Hyskool" has a good positive ring to it..concepts are good..like its got the right feel to it.. tracks like "All I Know", "Who Am I" and even "Leave It Alone" all have a powerful message.. that message is that there is more to life then what meets the eye.. but i still cant put my finger on it...looked at the track listing and it flows perfect..starts out, ok you've graduated hyskool, now what? you gon Hustle, get at the ladies being at the club 4 outta 7 nites, u gon hustle some more, make a couple dollars, then realize that you cant do that for the rest of ya life..i mean Frank Lucas couldnt even do that his whole life..So now u wise up and do something bigger. Gotta family to take care of and u think about "what if u were either dead or in jail".. ok so i got a good concept to the album....so what is it?? then it hit me.. To be original, to change the game a lil bit and have the people enjoy ya muzik from start to finish.. The art of Interludes or skits has been missin on a lot of underground and even mainstream albums..Then i listen to ludacris, "Theatre of The Mind" hot..i dig that..So on this project, i have connected with one of my favorite up and coming spoken word artist to add a lil spice to this project. D-Nyce or Denise Frohman has lended me a hand with this one and she is slated to have a hot spoken word piece to open up the album..I love her spoken word...very powerful and has a great message in all of em....yall can check her out at www.myspace.com/dnicesoulmusic. she is tough... but anywho, got that spoken word piece...so ok...now imma be addin a bunch of funny skits to keep people entertained and also the skits will bring in the next track..like tie them in...but later for all that, its time to blow a L and think.......in a minute everyone and until then, "remain sukafree"

I like that idea, and theatre of the mind is one of the hottest albums of 2008.
