I think it's pretty crazy it's halfway through January in the new year. I'm typing this during our meeting talking about the plan for the new year. Kinda crazy, but I'm pumped for us releasing music again!!! It's hard to sit and write... And write and write!!! We have a lot of great songs, it's crazy!!! Gotta get back to paying attention to this meeting. Lol.

I wanna show that gospel, country, blues, rhythm and blues, jazz, rock 'n' roll are all just really one thing. Those are the American music and that is the American culture.

Its finally SPRING but it feels like we are stuck in winter! Winter lasted longer than I thought here in NYC but I'm still having fun in the basement, finishin some stuff... listenin to legiao urbana and tv on the radio! Funny thing is that above me I hear the tapping of Danny's stomping to the beat of our most likely new hit he's writing. Just got my nails done to!!!! Stephanie keeps saying I needed a manicure so she finally gave me one.....You are a real man when you get your nails done!!! YES I said it!

Even thought life is sometimes crazy you still have to have fun with it! Live for today not for tomorrow.

Tiago.

P.S. - I don't watch a lot of tv but as I was getting my nails did...lol... I was watching Grey's Anatomy with the gang and man...that whole singing thing! Didn't like it!!! Just saying.

Beautiful Life

2011-03-08T00:40:00.004-05:00

I was in the studio recording with my boy Ian Holmes last night in Harlem, and mid song i realized how much fun i was having and how i take what we get the opportunity to do for granted. I'm living the dream!!!! It becomes routine the more we do it. But I remember when i started out doing music... My Dream was to be in major studios and make records I love, and tour, and all the things I do now pretty much. That just proves how awesome God is and how much hard work pays off. Sometimes we need to just stop and realize how great life really is.

Working on a new song. Can't say I've been the most inspired these past few days, A Lot on my mind... I am excited we leave to Texas and Philly for a couple days. Being on the road always seems to do it for me. I don't really like writing under pressure, But in this business you need to learn to get better at it. I believe Music has it's own effect on everyone, For me it defines so much more than just sounds and fun. It's my Therapy.

2010...

2010-12-30T15:46:00.004-05:00

The year is coming to an end!!! It is freezing here in New York. We have been writing a lot. I like it being i have no distractions up here. We have accomplished so much this year. I try to tell myself not to sell myself short when it comes to making goals, but the truth is I accomplished almost everything on my list. From the shows to meeting people, and even signing our first record deal! 2010 was good to us! I thank God for keeping us together and surrounding us with great people. Music is just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to our success. So many people work just as hard as us behind the scenes to make "City of God" happen. And of course all the people that support us and our music. We thank you!!!!! Happy New Year.... and 2011 will be the best year yet.

“For last year’s words belong to last year’s language
And next year’s words await another voice.
And to make an end is to make a beginning.”

Just got into our hotel room here in Utica, NY. 20 Hour Drive From ARKANSAS!!!! We did get to stop by in St Louis on the way! Never been to a lot of the places we've been on this tour. Met a lot of cool people. Plenty of people hearing us for the very first time. And that makes me happy, and makes me think of how much work we have to do. So far this tour has been amazing! Not over yet, We go Home for a show in Miami with MIMS and our buddies Dangerflow.... Will be a blasty blast. Than we back on the road for another show at the University of Memphis! We have plenty of news to share with everyone soon. Thanks to everyone that made this tour possible and all the people that support our dream. Love you.

Quote of the Day.

2010-04-12T23:28:00.001-04:00

Life is

the only chance you get,

how you live it,

what you take from it,

how much you give back,

a joy and a heartbreak,

doing the best with what you have,

loving with all of your heart,

treating all forms of it with respect,

and a wondrous beautiful mystery
