It was a busy ass week for me with school, had a Math test, Guitar test, and a paper due. So if you were curious at all, those things have kept me preoccupied for the last 2 weeks.
On to other things though, I feel like my brain is about to explode. I've been writing new material instead of finishing up the album and it's driving me crazy as a result, because now I want to write to the new stuff. I've taken a break though, so hopefully sometime after the album drops you can hear a few of these beats/songs I've been coming up with more recently. In the meantime though be patient. There's been a great deal of progress made in regards to the album. Earlier today I wrapped up recording on the opening track of the album, "Our Year" and I might have recorded the final take for what could possibly be the closing track, "Wakeup Call". At the moment, it's the only song on the record I'm a bit iffy about; although it feels like a good transition into the next album. We'll just have to wait and see what happens.
Some other things I feel I should mention:
Please, take some time out to add me on the twitter if you haven't done so already and also become a fan on the facebook. That page in particular is lookin pretty dead in comparison to my MySpace and Twitter.
Heard the new Drake song today, from what I understand this was his choice for the first single off of his album. I have to say looks like a really bad move. The song is called "Over", it's a fairly strong song, but it's not single material. This sounds and feels like an album cut. The beat is nice but the lyrics and hook are just not polished enough. This could be almost as bad as "Replacement Girl" was, it's definitely not on par with "Best I Ever Had" or "Forever". If this track becomes a hit, then this guy could basically record himself farting over a beat and watch it go platinum.
Lastly, in case you missed it, the Jacobo Beats Off EP finally dropped. You can get that here for FREE. It's a nice little collection of beats that didn't make the album, so take a listen get a feel for what could have been.
