Bubba Sparxxx Album Release Party

Last night, my good friend/producer Donte909 invited me to attend the Bubba Sparxxx album release party. It was my first type of music event, so I was a little nervous. I burned about 20 or so CDs in case I happened to meet someone who was interested in my music and I also updated my iPod with my new song. I got there at about 8pm and I proceeded directly to the DJ area, submitted my CD and I requested if he could play the first track sometime in the evening. He said no problem. I then started to walk around and see what kind of people were around. Since Donte wasn't there yet, I decided to just walk around and take in the atmosphere. He has suggested that I mingle at this event, but I'm not the type of person to sit down with complete strangers and strike up conversation. So I just basically stood around, had a drink, observed the people, and waited for Donte. I waited for him until about 11:30pm, that's when he and his brother (Big Ben) FINALLY got there. He then proceeded to take pics of some of the people there, got their information, and then he introduced me as his reggaeton artist and if they'd mind taking a pic with me. It was more fun when he was there.

Then, towards the end of the night, Donte had me snap a shot with some guy with a white baseball cap and a fur jacket. I had no idea who is was, but here is the pic...

...so after the pic, Donte asks me, "Do you know who that was?" and I say, "No, but I know that he was wearing alot of fur" then he says "That was Bennie Man" and I was just shocked that he was there and also how Donte got the pic off so quickly and perfectly. As soon as the rest of the place knew, it turned from Bubba's party to Beenie's party. They were playing all Beenie's songs for the rest of the night. Then, as we were leaving, Bubba was passing us by and Donte asked if he could take a pic with me that I was an up-and-coming reggaeton artist, he agreed, but then these two girls I took pics with earlier jumped on him and were like seducing him while Donte was trying to get the pic. Donte called his attention and he proceeded to pose for the camera...

... so yea, basically that was my evening. And then on April 7th, I have tickets to go to the bad boy entertainment party at the copa in NYC. I am going to try to get business cards done so I can put with my CD so I can possibly hand them out to people.

Till next time friends...

Money

You know, it's funny how people with loads of money barely know what to do with it. So they fill their houses with stupid crap like gold-plated pinball machines, or 8 different cars to barely use, just to say they have them. And then, people with little or no money could really use that money for small things like paying bills or getting food for their family. I am one of those people who have little or no money, but I know exactly what I can do with it. I sacrifice alot of time and effort for my future, and it's silly that a little thing like money could get in the way of my dreams. If I had an unlimited amount of money, my album would be done by now and would be distributed already and the wheels would be in motion. BUT, because I don't have it, the wheels are halted for now until I can get enough money in order to pay for everything. And I am not looking for a handout, I am just sharing my thoughts and opinions. I know there are people out there who would like to give me what little money they have, but I can't live with myself knowing that I am taking money from someone who already has so little. So I have to just toughen up and find ways to make alot of money in a short amount of time (legally of course)

Well, that's enough for now... I'll go back to watching FREE TV, cause that's the most fun I can have without spending any money...
