IT MAKES ME VERY HAPPY TO SEE MY OLD FRIEND AND TOUR MATE MNDR DOING BIG THINGS IN THE POP GAME AND IT MAKES ME EVEN HAPPIER TO SEE HER WORKING WITH THE VISIONARY CODY CRITCHELOE FROM SSION ON HER NEW VIDEO. “#1 IN HEAVEN” IS AN ANTHEM WITH A VIDEO TO MATCH BUT THAT’S NOT ALL!

HAPPY NEW YEARS. BEST OF 2K11 COMING SOON BUT UNTIL THEN JUST VIBE ON THIS ARTICLE WRITTEN IN FORBES MAGAZINE ABOUT ME AND MY NEW RECORD LABEL/BRAND “THUNDER ZONE ENT.” CLICK THIS LINK AND GET PSYCHED FOR 2K12. KEEP THE FAITH. NEVER STOP.

THANK YOU FRIENDS FOR A SENSATIONAL DECEMBER TOUR OF AUSTRALIA AND JAPAN. ABOVE IS ME PERFORMING A BRAND NEW SONG CALLED “21 ON THE 101″ IN OSAKA FOR SOME RAGERS. GET READY TO GET DEEP INTO THE THUNDER ZONE IN 2K12. LOTS OF NEW PROJECTS. MORE INFO SOON. THERE IS NO ESCAPE.

THIS IS WASSUP WITH JUICEBOXXX IN 2K11.

-A LOT OF TIME IN THE STUDIO WORKING ON A LOT OF NEW MUSIC. MORE INFO ON THAT WHEN IT IS READY. I HAVE TO SAY, I AM REALLY PSYCHED! A NEW DIRECTION IN RAP ROCK AND A NEW CHAPTER IN THE NEVERENDING JOURNEYMAN SAGA THAT IS JUICEBOXXX.

-I STARTED A BRAND NEW “ANYTHING GOES” LABEL CALLED THUNDER ZONE ENT. THE FIRST RELEASE IS A 7 INCH BY ONE OF MY FAVORITE RAP GROUPS G-SIDE FEATURING A REMIX BY JAVELIN ON THE FLIP. YOU CAN ORDER IT RIGHT NOW HERE. IN THE FUTURE THUNDER ZONE IS GOING TO DO ANYTHING WE WANT TO DO, INCLUDING ENERGY DRINKS, PRESS ON NAILS, TEE SHIRTS AND MORE.

-LEAVING ON SATURDAY FOR A TOUR OF AUSTRALIA AND JAPAN! IN AUSTRALIA I PLAY SOME DATES WITH THE LEGENDARY BIG FREEDIA PLUS THE MERIDETH MUSIC FESTIVAL. FIRST TIME DOWN UNDER. AFTER THAT 7 SHOWS IN ONE OF MY FAVORITE PLACES IN THE WORLD, JAPAN! I REALLY LOVE IT THERE, THE KIDS HAVE A LOT OF ENERGY AND THE OVERALL VIBE IS VERY INSPIRING. MORE INFO ON BOTH TOURS HERE.

-THIS THURSDAY IN LOS ANGELES I PLAY A SHOW WITH DAN DEACON, XBXRX, FREEZEPOP AND DJ FRANKI CHAN AT THE ECHOPLEX. ONE OF LESS THAN 10 US SHOWS I’VE PLAYED THIS YEAR. SHOULD BE A RAGER.

2K12 IS GOING TO BE POSITIVE I CAN FEEL IT.

I DON’T WANNA GO INTO THE DARKNESS.

I DON’T THINK I REALLY NEED TO SAY MUCH ABOUT THIS BESIDES THE FACT THAT IT’S A MUST-WATCH FOR ANYONE INTERESTED IN AMERICAN MUSIC. THIS IS WHAT IT IS ALL ABOUT PEOPLE. A LOT OF REAL LIFE TALES AND WISDOM FOR ALL THE KIDS OUT THERE TRYING TO CHASE THEIR DREAMS. WATCHING THIS GOT ME PSYCHED AND INSPIRED ABOUT JUST BEING IN THE MIX AND MAKING MUSIC. REQUIRED VIEWING.

IF YOU HAVE A DREAM AND YOU ARE WORKING ON THAT DREAM THEN YOU ARE LIVING THE DREAM.

I’M 10+ YEARS DEEP IN THIS MUSIC SHIT AND I CAN SAY WITH CONVICTION THAT I LOVE THE ESSENCE OF THE GAME. NOT JUST THE BRIGHT LIGHTS BUT THE HIGHWAYS. THE RADIO. THE TRUCK STOPS. THE RAGERS.

LOOKING BACK, IT MIGHT HAVE BEEN EASIER FOR ME TO QUIT DOING JUICEBOXXX AT A CERTAIN POINT AND START A NEW PROJECT. THE MODERN MUSIC LANDSCAPE IS A BEAUTIFUL THING BUT SOMETIMES IT FEELS LIKE IT DOESN’T REWARD JOURNEYMEN. WELL, I’M ABOUT TO CHANGE ALL OF THAT. THIS ONE GOES OUT TO THE DREAMERS.

ENTER THE THUNDER ZONE.
