Contest
I legitimately won the California Region and was advanced as a Top 10 Qualifier. I got props from E-40, label inquiries, offers for a distribution deal and marketing companies. I'm sitting back and looking at my options and will soon make a decision regarding the companies that have contacted me. The plan is to finish up my press kit (adding the new press of being a contestant and Top 10 Qualifier out of thousands of entries in the worlds first $1 Million Dollar Rap Battle) and then hitting that to the label I have my eye on.
I have reason to believe that I was blackballed by the contest and I have my attorney working things out to see if they were on the up and up.
They breeched their own contract and were completely dishonest about several major factors.
Mixtape
Studio time is booked and I'm on the verge of dropping the "FunkDetta Mixtape". Only a few more trackz need to be recorded, mixed and its a wrapped like a BliZzy. My joint'z "Lyrical Warfare (KRS-One Diss)" and "Break Ya Beck/STV Drunk'N remix" as well as the O.G. version will be included in the release of the mixtape. The release date will be set as soon as the project is complete.
Future Projects
Setting things up to make a music video for "Fight The Power" By Yellow Star Featuring T-Dhurr, MC Funky J. The filming will be set late August/ early September and will be Produced by a well respected gentleman who has done music video's for T.I., Pharrell, Kanye West, Coldplay and many others.
Now that I have been in a few documentaries and TV I am seriously considering the idea of expanding my career as an entertainer into the field of acting. I have a few people on the team who are in the movie business and I might work those angles in the city of angels.
What do you think about Funky on the silver screen?
Stay Blazing,
