I jus put in a full 8 hours at Starbux and now I'm about to do Street Sounds.  The grind never ends.  The past few days have been hectic.  On Thursday I went to the homie Jay Battle's crib and he recorded me over one of his beats.  It came out pretty nice but I have to rewrite the hook.   

I was really impressed by his studio.  He had a grip of hardware for makin beats....tons of keyboards, an MPC and some other stuff too.  Then we got into a kinda long argument over hardware vs. software.  I am software all the way.  All I got is my iMac and a keyboard but I know I'm gonna be able to bang out the beats pretty soon, once I put enough work into it.

I wasn't dissing hardware at all though.  Hopefully he aint take it the wrong way.  One of the most impressive things about his studio was inside the booth he has a TV set up that shows the picture he sees on his computer outside.  This way I can see exactly where we are gonna start recording at.  I see him move the mouse there and I can tell him if I want to punch in farther back, forward etc.

I'm annoyed that I forgot to take pics of his studio cuz it really is impressive.  Don't forget, dude is spinning for me this Tuesday at The Rendezvous (2322 2nd Ave. in Belltown).
