AS PROMISED HERES THE #U2P UPDATE......
FIRST THING FIRST THE TITLE OF MY UPCOMING MIXTAPE WILL BE " THE AFRICAN DREAM 2 : IN BLACKANATI WE TRUST ".
THE-WORD-IS:
MY MIXTAPE WAS ORIGINALLY DUE FOR RELEASE ON THE 6TH OF DECEMBER 2014, ON A SATURDAY MORNING,
BUT DUE TO CERTAIN ISSUES AND MISUNDERSTANDING HERE AND THERE WITH MY ASSOCIATES AND FELLOW MUSICIANS (NOTHING TOO MAJOR),
THE MIXTAPE WILL NOW BE SCHEDULED FOR RELEASE ON THE 20TH OF DECEMBER 2014, WHICH TOO WILL BE A SATURDAY...
MY ORIGINAL PLAN FOR THIS PROJECT WAS TO JUST DROP THE MIXTAPE, WITHOUT ME RELEASING SINGLES OR VIDEOS.
REASON BEING, THE WHOLE AIM AT THE TIME, WAS TO TRY TAKE/GET THE ANTICIPATION LEVELS OF YOU THE LISTENER TO HIGHER LEVEL.
SEEING HOW THE WHOLE GOAL OF THIS SECOND MIXTAPE OF MINE WAS TO SURPASS MY PREVIOUS WORK OF ART TITLED "A DREM DEFERRED "
ALSO KNOWN AS A.D.D OR #ADDSEASON, WITH MY FIRST MIXTAPE " A DREAM DEFERRED : THE COME UP STORY " DOING OVER A THOUSAND DOWNLOADS
ON DATAFILE HOST, THOUGH IT DOESNT SEEM LIKE ALOT TO YA`LL IT ACTUALLY IS , BECAUSE ALOT OF SONGS AND SINGLES BY OTHER ARTISTS
TEND DO HUGE NUMBERS...IT`S NOT ON A REGULAR WHERE THERES A FULL BODY OF WORK LIKE A MIXTAPE FROM THE LINKS I`VE RECIEVED,
THAT USUALLY DO THAT WELL , MAYBE AROUND THE 500 DOWNLOADS OR SO, SOMETIMES MORE. AND TRUE MAYBE EVEN THOUGH YOUR NOT MAKING MONEY OF YOUR FREE
DOWNLOADS, THEY DO HELP YOU MONITER THE SUPPORT YOU GET FROM YOUR LISTENERS...WITH THAT BEING SAID , MY WHOLE AIM ON THIS
MIXTAPE WAS TO PUSH FURTHER, AND TRY SEE HOW WELL MY SOUND WOULD PERFORM IN THE COMMERCIAL MARKET IF NOT ON THE NET (INTERNET)
ITSELF, SEEING HOW DIGITAL DISTRIBUTION IS TAKING OVER THE MUSIC INDUSTRY SLOWLY AND STEP BY STEP .
THE AFRICAN DREAM 2 IS THE SECOND INSTALLMENT OF MY AFRICAN DREAM SERIES, I DROPPED THE FIRST AFRICAN DREAM EARLY THIS YEAR
IN APRIL (25APRIL2014), IT WAS RELEASED UNDER B.M.G (NOW THE NAVY 011) & BLACKMOBB , IT WAS AN EP OF 10 TRACKS AND 2 BONUS TRACKS..I HAD WORKED WITH
THE LIKES OF GODSBRATT, THE ALMIGHTY MOOS, MEGMAFIA, JAY-AFTA, BLU PRINT AND MANY OTHER TALENTED UPCOMING MUSICIANS.
THE-AFRICAN-DREAM-SERIES:
THE AFRICAN DREAM SERIES IS MY WAY OF MONITERING MY CURRENT MUSICAL JOURNEY AS MUSICIAN/HIP HOP ARTIST.
AS I AIM TO ENTER THE INDUSTRY, I FEEL IN LOVE WITH RAPPING AT AN EXTREMELY YOUNG AGE, I`M TALKING ABOUT GRADE 4-5
AROUND THERE TILL TODAY, I`M 21 AND I`VE GROWN TREMENDOUSLY AS A RAPPER TO AN ARTIST & MUSICIAN...SO THROUGH
THE AFRICAN DREAM MIXTAPES, YOU`LL FIND OUT MORE ABOUT ME AS A PERSON, AND AS AN ARTIST...I ONLY PLAN TO CREATE
5 AFRCIAN DREAM MASTERPIECES (MIXTAPES) ONLY BECAUSE I FEEL LIKE AFTER THE 5TH ONE I SHOULD ALREADY BE THE STAR I SET OUT TO BE.
THE-AFRICAN-DREAM-SEASON-2-#U2P"
THE AFRICAN DREAM 2 : IN BLACKANATI WE TRUST " ALSO KNOWN AS #U2P (UNITE 2 PROGRESS) IS THE SECOND INSTALLMENT
OF MY AFRICAN DREAM SERIES AND MY SECOND OFFICIAL MIXTAPE, NOW DUE ON THE 20TH OF DECEMBER 2014...THE AFRICAN DREAM2 IS NOT ONLY THE SECOND
OF THE AFRICAN DREAM SERIES, IT`S MY OFFICIAL SECOND MIXTAPE. THE SUBTITLE OF THE MIXTAPE IS " IN BLACKANATI WE TRUST "...
I`M SURE ALOT OF PEOPLE WANT TO KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS , RIGHT ????, IN CASE YOU DIDN`T KNOW, I`M A MEMBER OF A VERY LARGE CULTURAL MOVEMENT/
HIP HOP SUPPER GROUP CALLED " THE BLACK ANGELS " ,WHICH IS ALSO KNOWN AS, (K)NOWLEDGE (R)EIGN (S)UPREME - GANG (KRS-G) OR ANGEL GANG........B.L.A.C.K HAS ALWAYS
BEEN AN ACCRONYM TO US (ANGELGANG) WHICH STOOD FOR (B)E.(L)OYAL.(A)ND.(C)HERISH.(K)NOWLEDGE , I DON`T HAVE TO BREAK IT DOWN , WE ALL KNOW THE IMPORTANCE
OF KNOWLEDGE, AND THAT`S THE MESSAGE WE AS THE BLACK ANGELS WANT TO SPREAD ACROSS THE WORLD...SO THE SUBTITLE WAS TAKEN FROM THAT PARTICULAR
NAME , YOU SEE HERE IN SOUTH AFRICA "NATI" MEANS " WITH US" SO SEEING HOW MY MOTIVE AS AN ARTIST IS TOO SPREAD THE IMPORTANCE OF KNOWLEDGE TO
ALL THOSE WHO HAVE THEIR OWN PURSUITS,AMBITIONS,GOALS AND IN NEED...I TOOK WHAT I STAND FOR AND TRIED TO GET PEOPLE TO GET WITH THE
PROGRAM,I CHOSE THE TITLE "IN BLACKANATI WE TRUST " FOR THAT REASON , TO SHOW PEOPLE THAT REGARDLESS OF YOUR BACKGROUND AND CURRENT STATUS
KNOWLEDGE IS KEY TO ANYTHING YOU`D LIKE TO ACHIEVE AND THAT IT`S SOMETHING WE ALL HAVE AND CAN RELATE TOO , THUS WHY I`M TRYING TO INTRODUCE A
NEW,POSITVE AND PROGRESSIVE STATE OF MIND CALLED " BLACKANATI " IT CAN EVEN BE A LIFESTYLE IF YOU WANT IT TOO...BLACKANATI HAS EVERYTHING MORE TO
DO WITH UNITING TO PROGRESS SO WE ALL ACHIEVE AN EQUAL AMOUNT OF SUCCESS IN OUR VENTURES, HENCE, WHY THIS MIXTAPE IS ALSO CALLED #U2P.......
I CREATED THE TERM "BLACKANTI" BECAUSE TO ME , IT`S MY LIFESTYLE, STATE OF MIND & DIRECTION AND MOST IMPORTANTLY MY EXACT WAY OF LIFE...(BY THE WAY "BLACKANATI" MEANS "BE LOYAL AND CHERISH
KNOWLEDG WITH US") SINCE I BECAME A BLACK ANGEL I`VE RE-WROTE LAWS AND RULES TO MY SUITABLE STANDARDS, I`VE ALSO BEEN SURROUNDED BY MANY
YOUNG AND INSPIRING INDIVIDUALS AND THAT`S WHY I`M EXTREMELY GOOD AT WHAT
I DO, LIKE THE OTHER MEMERS IN THE CREW, IN THE BLACK ANGELS WE ARE ALL GIFTED WITH OUR TALENTS BUT THE CHEMISTRY WE HAVE IS GENIUNE AND VERY
POWERFUL...ESPECIALLY MUSICALLY.
I`VE DONE ENOUGH EXPLAINING BY NOW..SO LET ME GET STRAIGHT TO THE BUSINESS.
