Fly Guys (feat Jawaad) & Tanya Morgan (feat a few ppl)

Kay & Donwill are The Fly Guys

i think the more i talk about all of the projects that i am working on the more confused i make you guys. its in my nature to pick things up and put them down, im a gemini. while im not going to list all of the groups/projects that are in the works i think this song does deserve some backstory.

Me and kay have been working together since sometime around 2004. We did a few jams together and while they would remain unreleased an undeniable chemistry was there. We forged a friendship around 2005 and decided to work on a group project last year. We probably wont formally get to work until Tanya Morgan is done campaigning.

backstory: sometimes you get asked to do verses and for whatever reason the projects dont surface for years. this is one of those cases. this song was recorded around the time moonlighting was recorded but the album that it was recorded for is just now being released.

the group is named fermented spirits and the album is titled demysitfication. they have the whole album streaming on their myspace page and subsequently the songs are all linked for free download via last.fm. i took the liberty of linking the song for you tho. to download, click the title of the song.

Suburban Sprawl Progress Report

right now as we speak dj noumenon is adding the zigga zigga's (you know cuts and scratches) and after that all thats really left is for me and von to sit down and pick the sequence out. (lucy lee) i have two video clips in production* and i am interested in doing a third, but we'll see how these two work out first. im not in either of them so that should prove to be very interesting.

while i do have a general plan for the implementation and release of the project there is no official single or none of that shit. (olivia o'lovely) right now im tryna retool my myspace page for the release but im not too swift with that whole thing. im sure i can figure it out tho.

tanya is still doin what they do (bridge ep 90% done, dj soul mixtape in progress, brooklynati being demo'd, tour being planned) so thats about it for now

godspeed...

*yall thought i was bullshittin when i said i was shooting a video huh? lets see how this turns out, so far its lookin pretty good.

pick one, anyone, its all the same thing, dope!

donwill is...

ilwill is...

tanya morgan to go!

BLAST FROM THE PAST MP3 DOWNLOAD: Rockin It! - Donwill

this is the song that bound me and dj low key for life. last time we were out there for the low key, dondub, che grand b-day extravaganza fest o rama bonanza between drunkenly espousing* 'i love my life' mantra and partying he requested that i do this song. to this day i dont really know the words, alot of times i write em and abandon em for a myriad of reasons. well i was off that sparks (YO CHE GRAND! GO IN NIGGA! GO IN!) so i was like fuck it okay and i tried to do it and failed, miserably. amazingly enough the crowd knew this shit! maybe im buggin but i remember them doing my verse for me, a mixtape song at that! damn that was a good time...

*did i use this word right?

Gregory Abbott - Shake You Down

weh oh well.

niggas if you aint singin along with that shit up there you aint got no romancipation in you. none, you probably aint never kissed a girl. nigga you probably cant even get your hand to please you when you need to. you hear me? DO YOU HEAR ME?!?! learn the words to that shit fam

look at his eyes man.. GREEN EYES IN THE 80's?!?! son i bet its still women lined up to audition as extras in that joint. shit... that joint goes so hard fam, i think i just made a baby listenin to it

for added slowgrindosity lets have the great freddie jackson debate

you are my lady vs rock with me

i cant decide!!!!!

The Lessondary Presents: Welcome To Loud Minority

hey guys: are we acknowledging this lp yet?

i was diggin thru my old files and came across this joint. this project is so rare that I dont even have the final version (the one ive got up for download in the link below is missing the song w/ spec and noni, i just got the instrumental as a placeholder) shit i know there is cover art out there but when we abandoned the album we kinda just really abandoned it and never revisited it for real. HNZ if you readin this can i get the cover art? please?

basically we wanted to remake an entire album and decided to do this one in particular because there are no bad beats at all on it, i mean the shit is perfect as is, we just kidna wanted to give our take on it. so you are probably wondering why we abandoned it? after we put ALL the work in the WORLD into making it?

well like weeks after we finished it (shit maybe even a week) dilla passed and we didnt wanna look like we were tryna capitalize on his untimely death. i mean think about it, days after he dies an album surfaces where we are just rappin over his album, his entire album? tasteless... fucking tasteless right? we were distraught, moreso by his passing than the amount of work we put into it and although it was already floating around the net we had NO problem with abandoning it out of respect. niggas was devastated man and while we did intend for this to hit dilla's ears so that he could see how nice we all were, we didnt want to be labeled as ambulance chasers man, thats wack. we shelved it outta respect

i think the statute of limitations is up and since its still semi floating around i am going to just begin to aknowledge that it exists. its old but damn if it aint good. enjoy...

DOWNLOAD THE LP HERE

yall wanna hear something esle REALLY random? we began to remake the game's documentary album and we got like 5 songs in and stopped. it was supposed to be Lessondary & Heiro but for a few reasons it didnt crystallize and we abandoned the notion midstroke. that shit woulda been great.... great i say!

imagine all the stuff that is supposed to happen that i dont talk about in here. nigga if i sold yall the dreams i been sold your head would fucking SPIN! at anyrate enjoy the music :)

every superhero needs good theme music

click the picture to hear my theme song
comment to tell me what yours is

this song is an instant pick me up and if you have ever seen me at the MJ vs PRINCE party (meka holler) you may have saw me literally black out (drunk or sober) to this joint. shit im outta breath right now from wildin out to it (i do that sometimes) like a madman. straight off, nothing is fucking with this song, nothing.

NOTE TO SELF: cut hair this weekend.
