Thanks man. You help me to keep going bro. I really appreciate that. You don't know how much that means to me. But yea man. I for sure want to work with you. I'm trying to put together a few songs with a more alternative feel. I like your style. Was that you singing on the "you know what" track?

i'm changin it up

since i have to glorify God in EVERYTHING i do, i also have to do so on this blog.
lol some of my readers probably think that's the case already, and i suppose in a way it is.
but this blog isn't necessarily centered around God. it's about hiphop music.
something very dear and important to me.
that won't change i guess, but seeing that i've made the decision to really get serious about it, i have to have that reflected in all aspects of my life.
understandable, right?
right.

UNDER CONSTRUCTION

be back as soon as i get time to actually go on this thing and edit it, which i don't really have much of lately.... :/

Doom

so i'm downloading Born Like This right now.
if this is good, i'm posting both that, AND the K'naan CD.
that K'naan is where it's at.

so crossing fingers for Doom...

X X X X X

oh women

Will eventually be my downfall. Lol
I feel like samson sometimes, dude. That dude had to have known that chick was the worst possible girl for him, but he kept walkin right into her little traps. Even AFTER being clearly told that that wasn't he needed ahead of time.
I feel like that might be my downfall.
And what's funny is growing up in church I always saud, "wow that guy was a total idiot." And I grew up doing the EXACT same thing he did!!! *frustration*
I mean, when I look at myself, I think, "ok. I'm a nice guy. I'm sociable. I'm talented, I guess. I love my God. I love to love and be loved."
Not bad I suppose. But in that pleasure of loving and being loved is where I always slip up. Always. Never fails. A woman will be my downfall, should I have one. I pray to God I don't, but don't think I don't know me. I know how I think and operate. One thing I hate is how if I have the chance to love someone and BE loved, I'll go for it. Even if it totally will screw me over, I'll jump headfirst into it.

Well what do I do?
I guess I raise my standards a little bit and chill out until I'm a bit more well founded spiritually.
Not to say that I have LOW standards. I don't just go around dating ugly desperate girls and junk like that. Lol
No.
I guess GENERALLY, I like a short pretty dark haired girl with a nice butt and a great personality who accepts me in all of my nerddom. That's not too bad, right?
But that's BESIDE the point. I guess I have to take those traits and add to them a strong relationship with Christ, or at least headed in that direction. If I don't have that, it's a complete waste of my life.
I've learned that the hard way. Lol
Well pray for me, that I don't pull a samson and become ensnared in that whole "dealing with women" issue.

We Stand



Come all and join the chorus
Our heads are lifted high
As one, we lift our voices
We raise this battle cry

We stand with one victorious!
We stand with one alive!
We stand with one glorious
Jesus, the crucified!

Come weary, worn, and broken
His arms are open wide
Our lives will not be shaken
As we raise this battle cry

We stand with one victorious!
We stand with one alive!
We stand with one glorious
Jesus, the crucified!

And our lives will not be shaken,
Cuz our God is still alive!
We stand with one glorious
Jesus, the crucified!

Love Is

Love is air,
It's like breathing in
It's like filling up about to break, then giving in It's like light,
You can see it from far away
A match light in the dark,
Becoming light of day

Love is tough
It's like surgery
Twisting all the crocked parts of you
Into marvelous symmetry

It's like heat
You can feel it in the bitter night
A thing that stings your fingers
It's a forest fire

It's just love and it's everything
It's a battle you fight and song you sing
It's just love
And you know it's true
But you might not know it when it happens to you

- Lee Mcderment

Ephah (Moment of Clarity)

this is all a result of me going to a conference today, completely paid for as well as free meals. God blessed me on this one. i thank God for providing me with the opportunity to go as well as the revelations that he's provided within me.
Hallelujah and EPHAH!
lol
but seriously, i meant that.
moving on:
well in my life, i'm unhappy. not gonna lie to you. being a christian isn't easy. whoever told you it was is a doggone LIAR and is goin STRAIGHT to Hell, God bless 'em. lol
I've been battling it OUT in my mind, man. it's hard doing the right thing when you KNOW that doing the wrong thing would be SO easy and simple and what not.
but honestly, it wouldn't be simple. it wouldn't be easy. yes it would be for that momentary satisfaction, but that satisfaction is temporary. i'm not lookin for nothin temporary at this point in my life. i'm looking for long lasting things. long lasting friendships, relationships, careers, financial security. i'm thinking about ALL that.
so for me to fall into this momentary satisfaction just because it'd feel good, or because everybody else is doing it and they seem to be doin ok, that's incredibly stupid of me.
if i were to do things based on OTHER PEOPLE, that's me telling God, "Hey dude. you cool and all, and i love you, but i'm gonna not listen to you when you actually TELL me something and sorta do my own thing. but hey, i'm a be back!"
ok so maybe some of my caucasian friends aren't comfortable with this word, but I am and until God convicts me of it, i'm using it until my DYING day.
that's acting like a real NIGGA. i'm not talkin about like my nigga Markus, or Aaron or nothin like that.
I'm talkin about that nigga that stole yo tv! that's the nigga YOU bein when you treat God like that.
the church is startin to act like some REAL niggaz up in here and i know God doesn't like it.
I'm guilty of it myself. i mean i don't necessarily plan and plot to sin, but when it happens, i mess up and i didn't necessarily fight it. that's still actin like a nigga.
we need to quit actin like some niggaz.
AMEN?
maybe that was a little to real for some folks. let's tone it down.

ok so in my life, like i said, i'm unhappy. i want things that i can't have immediately. i wan't a relationship i can't have, although i'm pretty glad to be unhappy when it comes to that. y'all need to look up some frank sinatra if you don't feel me there. that dude speled it out pretty clearly.

but continuing,

i want to sin when i know it's the wrong thing to do. i want to QUIT sometimes when it gets hard. even after i know what God has laid on my heart, i still feel that urge to just GIVE UP. it get's so hard. especially when you held in a position where you have to hold an example. you have to keep yourself doing the right thing in order to inspire and motivate others. right?
well i'm a tell you right now, that mess is HARD!
i'm not a perfect person. i screw up a lot. i try not to, but i still end up doing the things i hate to do.
but thank the Lord i also find my inspiration in Romans 7 and 8.
y'all don't know, you betta ask somebody!
God already knows. but thank the Lord for his mercy and grace or i wouldn't even be able to write this here for ya.
i feel like the devil is comin at me hard because i finally realized what i wanted to do for the kingdom. (you don't know? see previous post)
it was really confirmed today when Perry specifically said, "it's that thing that you think about when you're NOT sleeping at night." God's laid it out plain and clear for me. so why then do i wanna go backwards knowing this?
simple. it's the sin that's in me as a result of the world we're in.
but thank the Lord that i have the Holy Spirit fighting that same sin inside of me telling me what's right and what i gotta do.

so what now?
now i'm restoring relationships. i'm strengthening friendships. i'm speaking the word to others and praying over people's lives! i'm not where i want to be yet, but i have this newfound moment of clarity that i pray lasts.
we are caled to be his witnesses no matter WHAT we do.
so at work, i gotta be a witness.
at BestBuy when i'm out buying my anime, i gotta be a witness.
When that friend comes to me needing the word and asking for inspiration, i GOTS to be that witness.
EPHAH
i have to be that witness wherever i go and live the life that God's called me to live. no matter what. NO compromise (Rorschach).
too many times we as Christians play the, "oh it's not that bad" card. you know what that is?
being LUKEWARM.
know what God said he was gon' do?
SPIT YOU OUT HIS MOUTH.
i understand him. if there's one thing i can't stand, it's a passive person.
look, you're either here with me, or there with me. period. i'll do what the bible says and RID MYSELF of you if you that "ehhhh idk" person in my life. all you're doing is holding me back and i'm ready to get SERIOUS.

if you don't know, u better ask somebody.

but yea, i just can't be doin this whole passive thing anymore. i'm Hot. as of now, i ain't coolin down.
y'all need someone who can be hot with ya, i'll be there for ya.
and i'll also join you in your walk with Christ.
HAHA get it?
....no?
ok nvm

If there's anything i've notice about 2009, is that it is sucking for EVERYBODY.
if you're life is perfect and you crap daisies, this ain't for you.
this year, i can honestly say, has been the worst year in my life so far. why is that? because i somewhere along the line either lost focus or did NOT shift with God when he asked me to.
but you know what, last year was my best year ever. and bit by bit, God is restoring that happiness to me. He's restoring broken and strained relationships and eliminating ones that distract us from Him.
seeing this happen before my eyes is absolutely inspiring.

but yea. Basically, JJ's been inspired by the people at Spring Waters's love for Christ and their reckless abandon for Him and he's jumpin on the freaking bus. here. where he's at. RIGHT now.

yea, i may be technically unhappy. yea, there are some things that have come up recently that have me hurt and down no matter how i try to fight it. however, i don't FIND my foundation in those things.
I have my foundation in my Lord and savior Jesus Christ.

so you know what?

i'm OK.

forget all that mess. i'm 'a be ok.
heck, i'm ok right now, thank the Lord. i got breath in my body, clothes on me, a place to sleep, something to drive, friends that have my back, family that supports me, etc.
I'm good folks.

and that's my moment of clarity, however spazzed out and misconstrued it may sound, this is my heart right now.
thank the Lord for my ability to at least articulate somewhat how i feel.

shout out to Danee for inviting me.
shout out to b-dette for puttin up with the back seat of that bus. haha
shout out to the two ladies i met today who originally seemed like nice little white ladies who taught elementary students who actually ended up being really funny. lol
shout out to AB. "wuduyahavewuduyahave??"
shout out to Ashten for texting me when i about fell asleep. lol
shout out to Billy Langley. YES, i know about MLK. there's just some bondage in me that hasn't been BROKEN yet!! lol
EPHAH to Markus.

Unreleased Joint by N.E.R.D.

N.E.R.D. - Locked Away (HQ Finally)
http://www.zshare.net/audio/56904880ce0647fe/


Changed your mind,
I made you live a lover's life.
Changed your mind about all guys.
No kiss at the end of the night.
But if you will with me,
When I'm sure that you can see,
So when I ask you, "How you think it'd be?"
Just when I thought you would say to me...
No!

When you were in my arms,
Though inside I could see the stars
As if they were not far,
I read what they were sayin.
They said the world is yours
With her ya make it better,
So imagine you two together.
It'd be so amazing.

Hey but what if you
Miraculously feel what I do,
Our split up can't beat us two
If I could speak in invisible proof.
And you're writing the same,
Except you swap our names
Trying to figure out this weird ass game.
And you're like real confused... shit...


You keep me locked away!
You don't want to admit
About me and you!
Hey! But I don't care cuz,
You make life worth living.
You make love worth giving.
You make time worth spending.
Well, why ain't we worth admitting?

Glad to Be Unhappy

Look at yourself, if you had a sense of humor, you would laugh to beat the band

And look at yourself, do you still believe the rumor that romance is simply grand?

Since you took it right on the chin, you have lost that bright toothpaste grin

My mental state is all a-jumble
I sit around and sadly mumble

Fools rush in, so here I am, very glad to be unhappy
I can't win, but here I am, more than glad to be unhappy

Unrequited love's a bore, and I've got it pretty bad
But for someone you adore, it's a pleasure to be sad

Like a straying baby lamb, with no mammy and no pappy
I'm so unhappy, but oh, so glad...

- Frank Sinatra

John Mayer makes me smile


I like Sex, and I'm good at it.
DOOM - Ballskin
http://sharebee.com/af46bbe7

"Feel real genuine ball skin
Not to call the whole crowd out, it's just a few chumps
And you know who you are like a shout out
Place em in your loud mouth and taste em like a pastry
Waste of space, face hastily, bow out gracefully..."

DOOM

Ok so MF Doom (now just DOOM) is one of the sickest MC's in the game.
Google that


New cd is dropping soon. I've already pre-ordered it. I'm gonna start posting some stuff to catch y'all up.

comment i left on youtube in reply to the Prom Queen Video

wow,well i heard an unfinished version of this song not too long ago, but this one is way better.but on the real, i am a guitarist. wayne is NOT a talented guitarist. he is a good rapper.AND N.E.R.D. is my favortie band, but just because black people play guitar and sing doesn't mean they're looped in together. i don't think all N.E.R.D. fans are gonna dig this. just being honest. feel like i'm waisting my life writing this here since all bitch niggaz are gonna do is complain... ehh

life decision?

i was talking to an incredible friend of mine last night and actually verbalizing my thoughts helped me out a great deal to figure out what i want to do with my life.

ready?




i want to make music. for a living.
it's never to late to learn, right? i'm willing to take the time to learn it all.
i taught myself how to play guitar, so i really just wanna learn how to play keys, drums, and bass.
i want to be able to do things on my own like r. les. like lenny. like kenna. like pharrell and chad. like markus johnson. these people inspire me to make good music. and i feel like with as wide of a variety of knowledge and influences i have in music, i could make something great, God willing. not even saying that to be conceited. it's just a goal of mine i hope to fulfill.
so i'm going to finish this next semester of calculus i have to take and then that might be the last of school i do.
i'm going to work my butt off and try to get a good Roland like Markus has and teach myself how to play and mess around with that. i taught myself guitar when i devoted myself to it. i feel like i could do that too.
i just want to do something with my life that i love to do. all my friends are making important life choices, and this is mine.
this is what i sit up and think about when i'm not sleeping and laying in bed with my eyes closed.
this is what's constantly on my heart.
but i know that God also spoke in my heart he wants me to speak his word, and i haven't forgotten that. maybe i just need to find a way to incorporate that in what i do.
cuz i'm not hoppin on the Lee University bus. sorry.

i mean i've written two of my own songs. and i like my songs. but it's just me and an acoustic, or me and an electric. and there's so much more potential and things i want to do, but i don't know what to do or how to do what i need in order to express all this ambition inside of me.

so this is the gameplan.
