Found this lovely stock photo on the goog. :)

Cornell University. Located in lovely Ithaca. Last night I was invited by the Intellectual Diversity Association aka IDA to be a guest speaker as well as performer at their event.

For the first half of the festivities I did a lecture. Well, they called it a lecture.. I just babbled for approximately 45 minutes about my personal background, experience in the music industry as an Asian American, etc. Of course, we did the traditional Q&A session towards the end. I love those.

Once the academic portion of the event was complete, the real fun began. They held an impromptu freestyle battle where a few of the students and local mcs jumped on stage. Hilarious stuff. I even got in on the action. All in good fun. After the battles, I performed until the lights came on and school staff hit us with the “You ain’t gots to go gome, but you gots to get up out of here.”

Two words: good times.

The best part was meeting all the cool peeps at CU. I hope everyone that came out enjoyed the evening as much as I did.

Pictures to come soon..

So here’s my rundown for the next few days..

Monday night I’ll be attending this:

Should be interesting.

Then Tuesday morning, back to Hong Kong I go.

Quite possibly one of the coolest things I’ve ever seen on the internet.

Some of ya’ll may know I have been working on a mixtape called “Say Something”. The feedback I got from the two demos (Beautiful Story DemoUntitled Demo) I previewed so far were really inspiring. I’m glad ya’ll are actually taking the time to listen. More so, it is encouraging to know that there are still people out there who wanna hear artists actually say something in their lyrics.

I just wanted to take a moment to update ya’ll on the status of said mixtape. I have actually started the recording process for it. If my schedule wasn’t so hectic, it wouldn’t even take so long. Add to that, the fact that I want to actually say something, I think it’s only right that I should put a bit more thought than usual into the content.

Bottomline, it’s on the way. Once again, thank you for your patience.

Epic trailer.

Experience tells me this is one of those cases where it’s either gonna be an insanely dope movie going experience or one of those super hard-core nose dive let downs.

An odd feeling has me betting on outcome number one.

Here’s a situation I bet they don’t prep you for in parenting class 101. LOL.

What’s a dad to do?

The kid is adorable though.

Father God, I lift those up to You now who have not had the chance to encounter You.

May You bless their lives with fruitfulness and peace in abundance.

Thank You Lord for all your blessings and continued guidance.

In Jesus name..

Amen.

Census time! I encourage everyone to fill it out and participate.

Also, don’t forget that you can still submit a track for the 2010 Hiphop Census Mixtape.. More info here.

These days, I love reading.

Back in the days, not so much. School text books? Forget about it.

I got this in my email a while back. Pretty neat so I thought I’d share it with you all.

Apparently, this person was reading a book in class and came across this passage about me..

For someone who didn’t like reading in school too much.. to end up being written about in a book that’s being studied in class. How’s that for irony?
