During the Thanksgiving break I was working on my parents anversity gift, which was a song that I have working on deciated to my grandparents that past way in the late 1990's that where both from my mother's side so it was mostly for my mother you could say. Both my parents like my gift especially my mother it really mean't alot to her. It also so mean't alot to me too, this song was 3 months in the making the only song that I have spent the most time on.

My Trip Back Home

Whatz up? Everyone who have been following my blog. I just got back from my trip to my Hometown Uvalde, Texas. I went back home for my grandma's 72 birthday from my father side. The one I mentioned in class was the from my mother's side. It's been awhile since I been back home everthing around was a big flash back the past. Since my hometown is down south close to the border. I had to listen to music that I have not heard in awhile, like close to the border music. I'm talking about Tejano Music not Latin or Reggae Music that we hear in central texas where we are located. Tejano Music is very different then what are use to hearing where we are, San Antonio has a Tejano radio sation so San Antonio people know what Tejano is, but we Austin people have clue what Tejano is at all.

I'm out of Topicz

I'm out of a Topic today or should I for this week. I been kinda occupied this past week, so I have not been able to come up a topic for today's entry. I could talk about how I been trying to get my underground label up and running. Back in my freshmen year in High School I started my own Hip Hop Klick called tha Wolfpac Klick. I came across Chris Ice Jackson my freshmen, thatz when tha Wolfpac Klick was born. Ice and have been tha best budz since High School, we have been working hard to get a demo out. After I graduated from High School thatz when I decied to turn tha Wolfpac Klick into tha Wolfpac Klick Productions. We are still trying to put own demo out but now, we are tha onez producing our music.

Charile Muncell

Chalie Muncell was my High School band director at San Marcos High. His first year was when I was freshmen just like Mr. Knight, which I mentioned in my previous blog. When I first took a look at Mr. Muncell tha first time, I thought he was a scary guy? Over tha year while I got to know him, he was pretty kool instructor. I learned alot from Mr.Muncell just like Mr. Knight even though Mr. Muncell didn't understand me when it came to reading music, he belived in to my best every tine I attempted to read music. By tha end of tha year he understood me tha way I read tha music. In my Senior I had to write a speech for my speech class of course. I wrote about Music in gernal that surround us everyday. It was Mr. Muncell that inspired me and helped me with my speech paper. I interview for my speech, when he answered my question he open my mind in a way that I never thought of before. I thought I was open minded before but after I interview him my was crack open more than it was. So I owe Mr. Muncell my "Love and Passion" for music? Mr. Muncell retired in 2007 from San Marcos High School year after I graduated from San Marcos High.

To be honest I do not have any question from Chapters 6 and 7 most of tha information from Ch.6 and 7 I learned from ITT Tech. Which I attend before tha Art Institute of Austin.

Damon Ray Knight

Damon Ray Knight is my former Drum Instrucor I had in High School. He was tha first music teacher I ever had that understood me in music. When I started my freshmen year in high school it was also Mr. Knight first year too at San Marcos High School. In my freshmen year was not into Marching Band until Mr. Kight tolled me what great experince I could gain from it. I started attending tha football games with band towards tha end of tha season. Tha following school year I was ready to be in Marching Band. Mr. Knight became my most favorite teacher and friend to me, he was always there for me when I needed him tha most. Like all of my other Idols Mr. Knight has also made me tha Musican and drummer that I'm today. Until this day we still keep in touch with each other. Every summer when Drum Camp starts for tha new school, he tells tha story on how came across a wonderful student at San Marcos High School named Alejandro Munoz Jr. also known as AJ.

Dope House Records

Dope House Records is one of my favorite labels in the music industry. Dope House Records is an independent record company based in Houston, TX. Dope House Records was founded in 1992 by Arthur Coy Jr. and Carlos Coy aka(SPM) South Park Mexican. I only came across this label because of their Headline line Artists called SPM. Ever since Into their #1 artists tha more I got into tha label itself. In 2000, Dope House Records teamed up with Universal Records to gain some commercial success. By the end of 2000 Dope House Records signed a contract with Universal Records. Like any other businesses of today there are rivals with other companies. As last noted by Dope House Records in a riverly with Swisha House Records. My dream goal is to one day either work SPM or with tha label one day.

SPM (South Park Mexican)

SPM aka Carlos Coy is one of my favorite Rappers that I idolize as a lyrical artists. SPM and I are not that much different from each other. I first got interested in SPM when I first heard of his song called “You know my Name". Ever since then I have discover a lot of interesting factz about him that related to me in his music. It took me to my 21st B-Day to get his whole CD collection. SPM inspired me to become tha Rap Artists I'm today. In High School is when I started to focus hard on my English classes to learn better grammar and sentence structure.
