Good morning came about upon meeting the emcee known as Embryotik several months ago at the Foundation Limelight showcase hosted by my crew MI-6 (pronounced em eye 6). A freestyle cipher and a switch of contact information led to talk of the Name Dropping project; the end result being this;

PS (BONUS MATERIAL!) To all those who are not as knowledgable of the underground Hip Hop scene, here is the original song that accompanies the beat we used.

A good friend of mine Wordspit threw a successful event at SOB's in New York for his campaign Rise of the Illest, geared towards bringing awareness to the ongoing fight for a cure for HIV/AIDS. With close to 400 people in attendance, Rocawear and MTV's Staying Alive Foundation, I can honestly say that I felt like I was apart of a true movement if nothing else because I was there! For more recap from the man himself check it out!
BUT I'd be lying if I said it wasn't an honor to be apart of a live band cipher along with several dope emcees such as Final Outlaw, Livewire, Dremur, Wordsworth, and a sleuth of others! Have a gander!

Thanks to Nikisha from Atlantic Records for introducing me to this dope artist.

]]>Can't Complain feat. 5th The Messenger, Riley, and A-Lyric by SoSoonMusic
I'm not going to give a long spiel other then to say this; Can't Complain is single handedly one of my favorite songs thus far from Name Dropping simply because it features three artists besides myself.....none of which knew each other prior to the inception of the song! All I did was give them the title and the beat, and they did what good artist do!
But even more then that (so I lied about the long spiel!) this song speaks to my current situation. I've had some interesting struggles within the last year, which by the way this November is my one year anniversary of being a full-time artist (yeah!) That being said, with all the struggles that have come my way, I understand that things could be much worse so I TRY not to complain!
You know the deal; 1. listen to the song 2. checkout the links for the artist 3. spread the word!
Enjoy,

It's Halloween isn't it? I wouldn't have noticed if it weren't for all the grown and young dressed up in "costumes." My mom stopped me from trick or treating when I was 11 or so, which caused me to care less about the day each year - eventually not celebrating at all. This is not to say I'm going to turn down a nice treat!
Speaking of nice treats, here's one for those of you who love dope concepts and great music! This video comes courtesy of Likwuid, an emcee that I've grown to truly admire over the past few years - so much so it took me forever to introducer myself to her (I'm bashful) (Insert Goofy voice)!
Shout outs to Noise Maker Media for always bringing a fresh prespective to video making!

]]>One of my favorite singers in the world decided to have some fun with "She Will" by Weezy off Tha Carter IV (which is my favorite song on the album!) So upon receiving a random email with these amazing vocals by the talented miss Jacqui Bunch, I said in so many words "Do you know who you're messing with?!?!" This song was done before you sent the vocals!
Checkout our remix fo She Will! Then go FOLLOW Jacqui Bunch on Twitter (For all my Twitter Peoples!) and let her know how she KILLED this joint!

Your monthly Mi-6 2 for 1 is on deck! I'd say more but I'm on the road with limited internet so enjoy the music!
]]>It's sad that in 13 weeks this is only 2nd collab with a female emcee :( BUT what better lady to work with then an internationally known poet who has rediscovered her passion for rapping?!?! Sabrina Gilbert of Burrowsink is releasing her debut Hip Hop project titled "Good Look." It's simple; a few tracks, all collabs with dope emcees. Why? Because she felt like it! Simple enough for me!
So when Bri hit me up and asked me to be apart of her remix of Break My Heart (Estelle feat. Rick Ross) natually I was honored. Here's what came of it!
