Update: Don't You Know I Have Enemies Version 2 has been released to the audio portal. It sounds way better than the original version so check it out!
A lot has been going on lately. Right now the talk of the town seems to be my music. As most of you know I have 2 new tracks in the works. My friend and fellow recording artist Heatt is doing a verse for each song. Also he's having a professional R & B singer from his label sing the hook for me. I'm really excited about these tracks because even though they're not completed, I have girls singing the hooks to these songs all day everyday, no joke.
One girl told me she was in the store and she was just singing it over and over again. So obviously that makes me want to get these songs done as soon as possible. Also Heatt is about to get signed to DMX's record label and he also did a song with The Game recently. He actually sent me the MP3 via e-mail and the track is awesome! He said it's cool for people to download it so click the link below to check it out!

Also I forgot to mention that he went to a meeting for Bloodline Records and the whole staff was going to be there minus DMX. He calls me up one day and says "Vince, do you have anymore songs to send me?" and I'm like "yeah, why?" and he tells me "because I'm going to a meeting with Bloodline records and I want to show them your demo because I like the way you work". So now we're waiting to see what's going on with that. This guy is trying to help me out so much and I really appreciate it. Without him, I wouldn't be able to bring most of my songs to life.
Also I met this producer named Benny Hoffman over at my job and when he heard my songs, he was blown away. He released an album in 2007 and it sold pretty well. In fact, he actually made a profit off of the album. So I drove to Corona City to have a meeting with him plus visit my girl who was staying in that city. He gave me a copy of his CD and told me to give him constructive criticism about it. I told him that I loved his flow and his hooks were professionally done but he was missing the most important thing, a melody. I told him that a melody makes all the difference in a song. And he was actually surprised and totally agreed with me.
He also said that Dr. Dre thinks that the melody is the most important part of the song, and I never even knew he said that. So anyway he has an album coming out September 2009 and he wants me to help him with it. Of course I gladly accepted. We're actually in talks about me giving him my "On My Mind" song. The reason is, we would both benefit. I have no distribution whatsoever so it could be an awesome song but without distribution, no one will hear it. But if I give it to him I'll get a lot more exposure because of his distribution. And he'll benefit because he'll now have a single for this album. In return he said he would have his producer produce beats for me and that if he ever got signed to a major record label, he would have me signed as well.
This guy is seriously on the verge of going mainstream. He stars in an independent movie that comes out later this year. He plays a hitman in the movie. It's gonna be released wordwide as well. That means you can go to Best Buy, Target, Wal-Mart, etc. and you'll be able to pick up a copy. For every movie sold he gets a 5 percent royalty cut. So We are planning big things. And it's not a matter of if I get famous, but when.
The positive feedback has been so overwhelming and I thank everyone for their support. Don't worry, I won't forget about Newgrounds. I met a lot of cool people here and a lot of them actually inspired me. To me it's not even about the money. I mean it's nice, but I just do it because I have a love for music. I want to make a change in the music industry and I honestly believe I can do that. I have so many ideas in my head right now, all I have to do is bring them to life. Anyway wish me luck! I'll keep you guys updated.
