**** the world, Dont ask me for ****

There is something alluring about someone who keeps fighting against all odds.

♫ It is to You ♫ – Byron Cage

For some reason this song ALWAYS brings tears to my eyes…. to say it reaches me is an understatement.

It is to you i give the glory
It is to you i give the praise
For you have done so much for me
And i will bless your holy name
It is to you holy father no one like you
And i will bless your name
Bless your name
Bless your name forevermore

It is to you i give the glory
It is to you i give the praise
For you have done so much for me
And i will bless your holy name
It is to you holy father no one like you
And i will bless your name
Bless your name
And i will bless your name forevermore

It is to you i give the glory
It is to you i give the praise
Lord you have done so much for me
And i will bless your holy name

It is to you holy father no one like you
And i will bless your name
Bless your name
And i will bless your name
Bless your name
And i will bless your name
Bless your name
And i will bless your name
Bless your name
Bless your name
Bless your name
Bless your name forevermore

Resposibility

How responsible are you for someone else.

If you know carrying out a particular course of action is bad for them, is it incumbent on you to stop?
What if they know its bad for them and they don’t want you to stop, what then?

Stressed!

For the pass 2 days i have been telling people that i need a vacation and they have immediatly got the wrong impression.

Where as I do feel quite overwhelmed and stressed at times….. I am not constantly in that state. I am quite OK….

My desire to go on vacation (which really means 2-3 days resting) is to improve my production levels… I am beginning to realize i am approaching my burnout point… where i have difficulty focusing and a desire to take the day off too frequently.

And yet even as i type this I feel that Its a waste of time…. My production levels are falling because i am tired of my current project…. the moment it is over is when i can relax…. taking a vacation while it is still outstanding is a waste of time…. in fact when this project is over I know i wont need to take 2-3 days… work is a relaxing enough place for me…. It is actually almost a place of refuge…. a place dedicated to getting stuff done…. I like it here.

So here’s to my “vacation”, that week after my project is done where i can leasurely work on all the other little projects that i have been itching to get cracking on……
To stop “working” (on things i enjoy) really does more harm than help :-/

Can i tell you though, retirement scares the CRAP out of me.

OH, for the record,  I am not a work-a-holic… I am quite lazy. I work only when i feel like on things that i want to work on…… A real Work-a-holic works for the sake of working…. not I.

Basicaly I am Saying…. BUSY!

This morning while listening to the latest CD I created for driving (best of 09…. HYPE!) I realize that every time i put dance-hall on a CD, Busy Signal ends up having the majority of the tracks…..
It made me realize that, at least in my own mind, I have been seriously underrating this exceptional artist. His latest Song “blame Life” Is Deeply Profound and Just a Boom tune. Trust Me when i say as much as he can get Crass and Violent with the best of them, i am hard pressed to see any other (non dread) artist with as many GREAT Conscious tunes.

Many have heard me say that Vybze Cartel is one of the greatest Lyrical Geniuses that Jamaica has ever produced… and where as he is clever and truly “interesting” to listen to…. I beginning to think … scratch that… I do think that Busy Signal is a better artist.

In light of this I have decided to add Busy signal to the exclusive list of artists i will buy music from……
Here is sample of the list:

Queen Ifrika (NEW)

Busy Signal (NEW)

Etana

Tanya Stevens

TOK
