T2 - Heartbroken

May 21st, 2008 by Forge

Really random, but I’m starting to really really dig house music (of various formats). This is one of my favorite jams right now. It’s on some UK 2-Step steez. Definitely going into the workout mix I’m working on.

Diddy Talks About Glow In The Dark…

May 19th, 2008 by Forge

I wanted to blog about the Glow In The Dark tour, but I’ve been pretty busy and haven’t had the time. It’s probably the most well put together show I’ve ever seen, and I’ve seen A LOT of shows. Everyone I talk to feels the same. Even Puff (yeah, I’m still gonna call him that.)

If it comes to your city, do yourself a favor and make the trip to see it…

Work Ethic 101…

May 17th, 2008 by Forge

You dudes can’t match my work ethic man….
My heart’s poundin’ out my chest
I can’t breathe, My Mind’s Racin’
So I’m leapin out the bed
I hit the floor and start pacin’
I Walk downstairs
I take a glimpse in the mirror
My contacts so I can see a bit clearer
Reflection ain’t the same
It still appears a bit blurry
Losin focus
Grab some water
Feelin like I gotta Hurry
Say I rap about work and
Always workin’ on rappin’
But Failure Ain’t an Option
Gonna Make this thing happen
I’m laughin at myself for being up at four thirty
Always push it to the limits cause success is so flirty

Forge & Amen - 101

Three years later, this song still rings true. I wish I was still crankin’ out beats like I was then, and I wish we were still turning out joints like this on the regular. Life goes on I suppose. That said, A has started his own blog revolving around his aspirations to write screenplays. New outlets and avenues are never a bad thing. Hit him up…

Hey Mama…

May 11th, 2008 by Forge

Forrest Gump mama said, life is like a box of chocolates
My mama told me go to school,and get your doctorate
Somethin to fall back on, you could profit with
But still supported me when I did the opposite

Now I feel like it’s things I gotta get
Things I gotta do, just to prove to you
You was getting through, can the choir please
Give me a verse of “You, Are So Beautiful To Me”
Can’t you see, you’re like a book of poetry
Maya Angelou, Nicky Giovanni, turn one page and there’s my mommy
Come on mommy just dance wit me, let the whole world see your dancing feet
Now when I say Hey, yall say Mama, now everybody answer me come on(Hey Mama)

(Hey Mama),ahhhhhh I wanna scream so loud for you, cuz I’m so proud of you
Let me tell you what I’m about to do, (Hey Mama)
I know I act a fool but, I promise you I’m goin back to school
I appreciate what you allowed for me
I just want you to be proud of me (Hey Mama)

New York (pt.1)

May 9th, 2008 by Forge

Made another day trip up to NYC this week, specifically to see the Heart of The City tour at Madison Square Garden (I know, I’m freakin’ lucky! shouts to MichPush for the tickets and invite)

Got into the city around 10 am and walked around midtown a bit before I headed to the LES to meet up with the fellas at 3Sixteen. I hung around their office for a while, perusing through their upcoming line and current line and overall just shootin’ the shit with Andrew and Matt. I told them I was heading to Cafe Habana for lunch (thanks for the tip, Info!), and they were down. Cafe Habana is nothing short of amazing. Probably the best sandwhich I’ve had in a really long time, and the side of mexican corn was jumpin off! Here’s some pics, courtesy of Andrew @ 3Sixteen (make sure to check their blog as well)

mmmm, bitch!

After lunch we headed back to their office so they could get back to work and I cold just sit on the couch and recover before furthering my journey, haha. We talked about music, and we’re going to collab on some tapes here in the near future, so stay tuned for that!

Rest of the update coming soon (gotta get the rest of the pics)…stay tuned!
