A Legendary State of Mind…
I’m starting 2012 off in the best way possible… I’m in the studio. The most comfortable place for me by far. The one thing I’m gonna go ahead and accept about myself is that when I’m recording a TQ album I can’t multitask. Period. This is the time when everybody is pissed cuz they can’t get me on the phone. This is when I normally got dumped when I had girlfriends. This is when I routinely missed out on some good opportunity cuz I wasn’t available. Well… I guess I gotta accept the consequences of my actions right? Play with the hand I’m dealt… You can’t have the best of everything. I love music. My job is to make it. Repeat the last two sentences to yourself. I’m one of the luckiest, most blessed people on Earth just by those two sentences. So right now I’m camped in a studio out in some empty town in Texas. The great part is that it has these storm shutters that cover the windows. I don’t have a clue about the weather. Skip Bayless tells me when its time to get at it. I set the TV to come on for First Take every morning… My iPhone? Man who the fuck knows? Wherever it is it’s on silent. My beard looks like Rip Van Winkle. I been at it all nite… Maybe I got 2-3 hours of sleep I don’t know… I just know I’m trying to do some Legendary shit. I’m not trying to do shit that ain’t provocative. Last nite I did a song about my promiscuous girlfriends and how we can all just “get along”… It’s provocative.
To say the least…
There is music everywhere. Yesterday it was music and football, but that shit is over for a week and the Lakers win all the time anyway so… This week we goin’ extra hard. We goin’ Legendary hard.
Imma start using my blog more often… These are the times when I’m in a Legendary state of mind. I got my Guitar Player and my Drummer with me. I got Cafe Brule, Charles Krug and Chimay on deck. My Kush selection is fucking exquisite. Ain’t none of us going no place soon except out back to the grill or to the workout room. When I leave here I’m leaving with some Legendary shit…
Legendary. I like that.
