TRUCO Y GOCE MAY 4 2011

Do not be surprised if im rocking these soon...fresh

"Sinergia" Ft. Danny Beat Teaser from imotionlab on Vimeo.

I will be on this album "Sinergia" with Danny Beat who is one of the coolest, chillest, nicest and humble producers Ive met. Im glad and grateful to be on this album which will be released in Mexico this summer. The track is called "misunderstood"

a few lines:
"my words immortal with teqnique but it dress nicer/
i don't 4:20 and you don't feel me, but still im higher/
no braids but its Danza with an afrobeat/
some sweat lodge I hoop it up thats my ceremony"

Reflections on the New Album

okay okay, album is done, title is done, artwork it done (thanks to Andres who has done all our albums and graphics including the PLG tree and Quilombo Otherground All stars design), and now just waiting on the packaging to get finished. can't wait to show the world but a little nervous about how it will be received. the album was produced by Para La Gente who at the moment is the guitarist Aaron Moore and Gabe Panell with co production from Hifly and Kajmir. thank goodness for the peoples of America Latina who continue to be the #1 supporters of my music. I really don't know if i'd still be doing music if it wasn't for the love i get from them. It makes me realize how lucky I am to be playing music around the world. Ive been blessed to have the support of Quilomboarte and Boca. he believed in my potential when nobody was really giving me a chance so im always hoping to repay the favor one day. I think the people will enjoy this album if they just get a chance to hear it, so im thinking of ways to get it into peoples sound systems.

weve gone through a lot of changes in the last few years and you will hear it on this album. it reflects where we are at. Aaron and Gabe spent a full year working through this album and now its finally here and ready. Now here comes the hard part. the hustle part, the what separates you from the rest part. I have to thank those two guys for being 100 percent committed to making GOOOOOD music. we did not settle and i think it shows.
anyhow, we will be working on our next steps these next few weeks....

Ok ok, ya esta listo el Nuevo disco, ya tenemos el titulo, y el arte (gracias a Andres quien ha hecho todos los discos y arte, incluyendo los disenos del “arbol de PLG” y “Quilombo Otherground All Stars”). Ahora solo esperamos el paquete de los discos para terminar. Nosotros no podemos esperar para mostrarle el mundo, solo un poco nervioso acerca de como sera recibido. El disco fue producido por Para La Gente quien en este momento esta representado por el guitarrista Aaron Moore y Gabe Panell, con co-produccion de HiFly y Kajmir. Gracias a todas la personas de America Latina que siguen siendo el numero uno de los partidarios de mi musica. Yo realmente no se si yo todavia estaria hacienda musica si no fuera por el amor que recibo de ellos. Que me doy cuenta de como me siento afortunado que soy de estar tocando musica alrededor del mundo. He tenido la suerte de contar con el apoyo del QuilombArte Y Bocafloja. El creo en mi potencial cuando no habia nadie realmente me esta dando la oportunidad, asi que estoy siempre con la esperanza de devolver el favor un dia. Creo que la gente va a disfrutar este disco si solo tienen la oportunidad de escucharlo, asi que estoy pensando en maneras de conseguirlo en los sistemas de sonido de la gente.

Hemos pasados por muchos cambios en los ultimos anos y ustedes lo podran escuchar en este disco, y la musica se refleja en que nos encontramos. Aaron y Gabe paso un ano completo de trabajo a traves de este disco y ahora esta aqui y listo. Ahora aqui viene la parte dificil, la parte prisa de “Hustle”, lo que la separa de la parte restante. Tengo que agradecer a los dos, Aaron y Gabe, por ser 100% comprometido a hacer Buena musica, que no se conforme con menos, y creo que muestra.

De todos modos vamos a estar trabajando en nuestros proximos pasos en estas proximas semanas…

I, Too, Sing America

I, Too, Sing America
by Langston Hughes

I, too, sing America. I am the darker brother. They send me to eat in the kitchen When company comes, But I laugh, And eat well, And grow strong. Tomorrow, I'll be at the table When company comes. Nobody'll dare Say to me, "Eat in the kitchen,"Then. Besides, They'll see how beautiful I am And be ashamed-- I, too, am America. ---------------------------------------------------
