buzay!

been super buzay lately. 

ive got ^this^ done in the last little 

while which shows

how much craze is goin on right now.

im glad that my life has changed so much in the last 7 years. 

before i would just live at work, 

and i would be buzy from that.

but now its more about expanding horizons, 

and living life. 

 im so happy right now, 

and appreciative that im wasting less time in my life. 

that said, im trying not to whine or shit on anyone out there. 

times get hard, 

and people need positivity rather bullshit these days. 

why add to the hate train? 

shout outs to peoples that are still down with me. 

its SUPER EASY to be "out of sight, out of mind" 

but my true peoples stuck around and put up with some shit. 

also, i hopped off the facebook train 

and onto the real life experience train. 

im glad to see someone i havent heard from in a long time. 

i dont want to know all the shit they 

are up to before that. 

when i see em, 

i have something to talk about. 

and they have experiences to share. 

and ill keep it that way. 

i loved me some facebook back in the day to connect with old friends, 

and i am thankful for that... 

but time to keep it movin.

for me:

 my first cassette tape was licensed to ill.

my first 2 cds ever were licensed to ill and mama said knock you out.

those 2 albums got me through high school and college.

ive bought every beastie boys album at least 3 times.

am i a fan? kinda.

its funny how last sunday

i was listening to that mick boogie mixtape,

and now mca is gone.

i spent the last couple of days listening to my rare vinyl,

and albums while drawing.

i gotta say,

i was looking forward to the next beastie project...

or hoping they would release hot sauce pt. 1.

i forgot about how much exclusive stuff they had.

and if you are wondering,

YES i tried to buy everything in doubles.

(its a dj thing)

last month i found 'the mix-up' on vinyl,

which was the last full length album i needed.

now time to find a double!

(same for 'to the five boroughs')

love american style, was cool and had super rare shit...

and exclusive japanese versions of albums.

and thats how it was FOR EVERY ALBUM.

and would like to get them all...

damn they cared for fans.

extra stuff if you really looked for it.

fuck.

but to see someone go...man its tough.

i felt this way when jam master jay went.

another legendary group that will not be the same.

yo shout out to mca.

ever listen to an album and know exactly where you were when you first heard it?

ill communication - was skipping high school,

walking home with my yellow sports walkman blasting that shit.

a week later i got accepted into college.

i blasted that album that whole summer in celelbration.

alot of aa batteries were killed.
