New T-Pain and Kanye West - "Flight School"

Yo, my boy over at Hip Hop Official posted this earlier, so I'd thought I'd share the knowledge!

Enjoy...




Wow. I would have never imagined I'd enjoying hearing two guys with fake voices on the same track. Talk about auto-tune overload. But hold up, wait (c) Nate Dogg.

This song is motherfucking crack bananas. The vibe is undeniable. T-Pain keeps is low key (thank God), and Yeezy ditches the auto-tune for his verse (thank Jeebus) but still rocks it on the hook. But here's the thing...auto-tune works in the right atmosphere and on the right track. They nailed this one like Jesus. And I'm hard to please.

MY VOMIT DRAFT

I had posted this over on my Tony J. The Screenwriter Blog, but I just have to spread the word!!!!

==========

I've done it! Today I completed the First Draft (or Vomit Draft) of "Club Love"!

I am so damn happy and proud of myself right now.

This story has been over 12 years in the making and now it is finally a reality for me!

There was a lot of inspiration when I had joined Triggerstreet.com. Great folks over there, lots of great information and stories from the battlefield!

I also think that ready Save The Cat was a great help. It really gave me a fresh perspective on my writing.

I can finally say, "I have written Club Love" instead of "I'm going to write Club Love".

Wow.

BTW, I am still trying to figure out what to do next. Some people say you should sit on it a while and then head back for the re-write. Some say just keep going and get right into it.

My first priority will be to print it and read it through. I love the feeling of holding it in my hands as opposed to reading the .pdf document on my computer screen.

Then... I'll decide.

I know that I have a few great books on the re-write process, so I'll probably dig into those a bit before deciding as well.

I'm right in the middle of McKee's "Story", which I really got into after the first chapter or so. I know that I want to complete this book before I do anything as well. Great information in there!

Ok, that's all for now!

NEW DJ TONY J. QUIK MIX!

YO! I just put up a new Quik Mix on www.djtonyj.com

I invite you all to check it out. If you're on MySpace, you're gonna want to add this one to your profile.

Songs in the mix... well, you'll just have to listen to find out! I guarantee they're bangers.

Thanks to everyone for checking out all my mixes and downloading them!

JANKY-ASS HOLLYWOOD PROMOTERS

Seriously, how can someone be a promoter and be broke? If a promoter cannot pay-out the people that they hire that night, there is something economically wrong with their situation. Trying to floss like they are high-rollers but in all seriousness, they are some broke ass jokes that don't make any money at promoting. The folks that run THIS SO-CALLED PROMOTIONS COMPANY are just that. They couldn't hit off a $300 payment at the end of the night. How sad is that. They couldn't get enough business to make $300? And even so, they didn't have $300 in their wallet to pay-out someone? Seriously sad.

I'm an old cat with a new bat, don't forget it. I've been doing the Hollywood club scene for MANY years now. People like this, I've seen them come and go. Like these clowns... they don't realize that they'll be out of business in a year, broke ... and I'll still be in the Hollywood scene. Makin' my money with business people that also make money. Teemaree said it best, "How can I do business with someone that doesn't have any money?"

It's bad business and it shows no character for people to say something - make a verbal contract even - and not uphold their word. In the REAL WORLD, there is no such thing as "I'll pay you tomorrow". The only circumstance that would have me accept this sort of deal is if it was a good friend of mine that I have known for a while. Someone I trust.

The night that these guys couldn't pay-out, some crazy dude who kept calling me "pimp", seriously put himself into a bad situation. He just doesn't get it... and that's fine. Like I said, he'll be back to his 9-5 within the year and I'll still be in the scene makin' my money.

I actually feel really bad for these people. But at the same time, your character really shows a lot and determines how things will play out.

God is watchin' People should remember that!

ADAA!

"GLOW" 2008 - SANTA MONICA, CA

Had the pleasure of attending the first "GLOW", which was a huge FREE party that was held at the Santa Monica Pier and surrounding beach area. It was a cool night out there with the fam bam. Thousands of people. Cool vibe. For the first one, it was good. I'm sure they will get the kinks worked out for next year!
