Be Professional....Please

Hey honeys.  Many of you know that I went to Florida last week during my birthday time and had a blast.  Now, it was just a coincidence that I went for my birthday.  The whole motivation for going was to shoot a video.  A fellow Full Sailor reached out to me back in July.  He thought one of my songs was dope and wanted to do the video for free.  I was excited and said as soon as I could come to Florida, we could do it.  Well, he reached out to me in November and said to come if I could because he had a crew that could do the video.  I told him I could come the week of my birthday.  He said that's fine we can shoot the video then.  We agreed to talk on the 7th to iron out the details.  I called him that night because I hadn't heard from him only to hear that we couldn't do the video because the crew would be on vacation.  I feel that he could've been way more professional about the whole thing.  If you offer a service and you can't deliver, the customer shouldn't have to call you to find that out.  You should let the customer know and work out a way to reschedule something.  Also, at one of the shows I did while I was there, an artist was on the stage.  He gets mad because the crowd wasn't feeling him.  Then, I guess they started arguing outside, so everyone leaves to go outside.  This leaves me with about 2 handfuls of people inside the club to sing to.  I did my thing, and they liked it.  That artist was very unprofessional.  I understand that I'm a new artist who has to build a following.  Unfortunately, part of the building process includes performing at weird shows where it seems like no one is receptive.  So, to sum everything up, music, film, modeling, promoting, etc....are all forms of business.  Act professional at all times and always remember that the show (song, photo, runway, etc...) must go on!

Don't Settle!

Many of us want happy, successful relationships.  I'll be the first to say one day I want to get married, have children, and live happily ever after.  Nowadays, tradition, for the most part, seems to be a thing of the past.  I find a lot of my friends and family just settling for anything to be with someone.  So, I decided to write a song.  It's about wanting to be more than a jumpoff to someone.  I just want to encourage everyone not to settle.  If there is a certain type of man or woman you want, don't just settle for less than to have something.  For instance, you may want an attractive man that's single.  Don't just settle for an attractive, attached man in order to have a man.  There's a single, attractive man out there for you.  Maybe you want a woman that's attractive and conservative.  You don't have to settle for that attractive, promiscuous woman.  On the other hand, you may have found someone that fits the majority of your list.  Maybe that someone doesn't want a commitment.  He or she just wants to have sex with you when y'all are in the same city or town.  Don't just settle for that just to be with that someone.  Stick with your standards.  Your Mr. or Mrs. Right is still out there.  I promise!
