Records Records Records!!!

It's Sunday night, and it's less than 6 days until take-off. On the 14th of the this month, my record will be on Itunes and a few other online retailers, and I'm in brain-prep mode. I've been rehearsing Criket alot, and I think I will end up doing an acoustic version of that song.  Cee-Lo loves that record, and I would love to have him on an acoustic remix. I hear nothing but good things about the songs, and most people say that they haven't heard anything like it before. I have had one or two cats tell me "Man you sound like Hootie!" , but I don't really mind that. I just hope I come out and do some Hootie numbers. I won't complain about that at all. JJ has been getting all the college radio stuff together, and I want to make sure I've done all I need to do on my end too. I've been in the studio working alot in the midst of all this stuff, so it's been a test in time management. 

Diamond from Crime Mobb just recorded "Superbad", and I've been trying to get some more tracks done for her. That song was done originally with Sophia Fresh and released on the west coast, but I was told they were going with another single so.... I think Diamond is gonna kill it though. In the new version of the record, I flew Cee-Lo around on there more, so he is pretty much the hook on the record now, and it feels harder with Diamond on it.

I'm also in the middle of trying to do something extraordinary for Cee-Lo's solo album. I've already got one song on there, but I want more. I find myself mentally in a place where I feel I need to excel. I want to surpass any of my past work and deliver something truly great for him. A hit single. It's onmost silly to approach it that way, but if you don't ask, you don't receive. So, I want a single. I was told that the album will be launching in June, which is better than when I originally heard it was going to be in September. He's working with some other really dope producers, and I know the record is going to be special.  

Grammys are tonight, and I'm really looking forward to it.  Seems it's going to be more performances this year than ever, and I'm really looking forward to seeing Radiohead. 

Anyway, on Monday morning, get back to work!!!
