Design & Origin of Stars update #2

greetings earthlings...the tape is going great so far however i had to cut a few songs, i am now dead set on 15 new songs +intro/outro and a re-release of 3 older ones as bonus tracks...to update everyone on the features: i'm in advanced stages of negotiation with the management of Chrisette Michele, Gordon Voidwell, Yeasayer, Dorrough and 2 Pistols on top of the features i named in update 1...there's also a possibility that Shane Sparks may debut his rapping skills on my tape...i've re-written some verses so they're even hotter, definitely look forward to some memorable lines on this CD...there's a few more details on an interview i did last week, on music as well as life (and bosnian girls)...if you have any questions i found a cool little site which i try to answer regularly and if you wanna stay updated in real time follow my twitter...next update will hopefully be from the booth, check back soon!

Design & Origin of Stars update #1

this will be the first of several updates on my upcoming mixtape Design & Origin of Stars...the CD will have 16-18 brand new tracks and the intro + outro...featured artists who have already recorded include Collie Buddz, Lemar, Shanell, Mickey Avalon, Ace Hood, Styles P, Passion Pit, Natasa Kojic, Kardinal Offishall, Crystal Castles and Gucci Mane...i spoke to Nicki Minaj and Kid Sister before new years and there's a chance they will be involved with the project as well...i'm also in talks with 3 other artists who are household names but nothing is close to confirmed and i don't want to jinx anything HOWEVER the fact I'm doing a mixtape instead of a album off the bat means once they do record i wont have to worry about clearing anything with labels (which has been a problem in the past)...most of the production is very radio friendly but towards the end of the tape it gets more experimental and creative...lyrically i have never spent so long writing for one project and recording wise I'm taking my time and not tryin to be "one-take hov" this time around...this CD is the most serious one i've ever done and for this reason i can't speculate on a release date or when the first singles will drop, i want to thank everyone for their support and please check back for updates on here and my twitter!

HRISTOS SE RODI!!
