Update on my Music Career...

Posted by Vinstigator - August 6th, 2008


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!

Heatt featuring The Game - Quiet

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.

Fancy my friend, I listen to your music, grand pieces, you did not blow me away, you exploded my limbs.

Now my record company is going global in just 3 weeks, we hope you can join us and help us record music and make some music, we will sell it on CD, but we want to expand to internet enterprises, on internet like internet explorer 7 and mozzilla firefox. If you help us there will be money for both of us, and I will also cook your breakfasts. Please to be success we need you to become english citizen and also to wear chasity belt. Can you go to a libary and research us if you do not choose because we want you to be sure you missed our oppurtunity.

I have a shitload of independent Record Labels I'm working with right now, but I'd be glad to help you out.

i'm having trouble, are you talking about the graffiti in the basement again? I already told you I didn't do it stop bugging me about it

:D

great success? ^_^

Haha thanks Toot! Now hurry up with your flash!

Hehe, congratulations sir. And my advice is to do what you love, not just for money, also do it because it's what you really want to do in life.

And this sprite animator wants to become a doctor, seriously. Flash is just a hobby for me too, and there's nothing like doing something in life, because you love it :)

Peace <3

Yup that's my message to people, do what you love because you want to, not because you want to make money. And another thing I always say to people is do what you love and keep at it because eventually you'll make it a profession. If you keep at it I'm sure you'll become a doctor. Just like if I keep making music I'll be doing it for a living. A lot of my upcoming songs are going to have positive messages and I'm sure they'll inspire a lot of people :)

Eh been there done that.
Congrats man, hope you have a great career.

I know you're looking more forward to part 15 than my next hit Thomas :P

Anyway thanks, I know I'll have a great career. And don't worry I will finish part 15 ;)

Hey that's cool man. Looks like that friend of yours is really helping you out.

I wish you luck. Just keep your eyes open, maybe something goes wrong and you're not prepared, that would be a shame.

Keep doing what you love and keep us updated.

Don't worry my career is in good hands. And I'll keep you guys updated, so keep checking back :)

Fuck 15 make the moneyz.

Dude it would be sick though if you get to go on huge tours and shit. When you are on the east coast DC area I'll definitely go, though sure I will be one of 15 white people there.

True, I would love to do this for a living and at this rate I most likely will. Anyway most of my fans are different races. The Black and Latino community is behind me the most though. But trust me, you won't be the only white person there. I have a pretty big fanbase with them as well. But if I ever do go to the East Coast, I'll give you backstage passes because you've supported me since the beginning :)

lmao, my flash got underdog of the week xD!

Congrats, that is fuckin' awesome!

Word you doin it big man. Good luck with your career man, but dont forget about flash. Its good to be multi-talented. Hope succes comes greatly for ya.

Long time no see! What's up man? And yeah I don't plan on quitting flash anytime soon. Anyway thanks for the comment and words of encouragement! Success is just around the corner :D

meh, disturbing toad was a total failure.
Most people disliked it, just look at the reviews.

Nah, it was a great success. I mean, it got 2 awards AND front page! My last movie that made front page won Daily Feature but got voted down big time and received a shitload of idiotic reviews but my response was "well Tom liked it and put it on the front page so I don't give a fuck what you think" lol. Not to mention Tom put it in the CT collections page as well ;)

Oh, And happy clock day to you :)

Happy Clock Day!
