Here it is folks! Tomorrow kicks of the start off the Red Bull Skooled tour. I will be hitting the open road with my group A.Dd+ (Dallas). Joining us on the six-city promotional tour through Texas, will be: The Niceguys (Houston), Worldwide (San Antonio), and Kydd (Austin) . These up-and-comers will be mentored on how to succeed in the music business by legends in the rap game. The legends will also headline at various tour stops. Who are these mentors? Drum roll… Bun B, Mannie Fresh, Paul Wall, Cold Cris, Michael 5000 Watts, Chingo Bling, and Nancy Byron (hip hop PR guru).

Big thanks to everyone that made 2011 an amazing year. I’m starting off the new year with a fresh look. Expect big thangs. BIG BANG!
We are ending 2011 in a few hours and I thought it would only be right if I listed my top 10 albums/ projects that dropped this year. Here they are, in no particular order. Enjoy!

A.Dd+ – When Pigs Fly
I want to take the time out to let y’all know how fortunate I have been to work with the creative duo known as A.Dd+. This has been a big year for us and I know for a fact 2012 will be that much more memorable. I’ve already seen When Pigs Fly in many peoples top lists for 2011 and if you had the chance to see/ hear what has been happening in the studio as of late, you would already be reserving a spot for these dudes on that 2012 list, trust. Thanks for riding with us.
Happy New year!
We are down to the last weekend of 2011, and it’s time to end it with a bang! This Friday, I will be rocking Atama‘s second annual Show Me The Munny event at Strangeways in Dallas, alongside my homie Schwa. On Saturday (New Year’s Eve), I will be holding it down at the Stereo Music Bar in Corpus Christi. This is my second year DJing this party, and it’s a blast. If you are in the Corpus area, this is the spot to be.
This year has been great for my crew and me, and it looks like 2012 is already shaping up nicely! Keep your ears to the streets. See y’all next year.
