Early Christmas
What a crazy week. I mixed a song for Young Heff featuring Joe Budden which should be hitting the radio waves by this weekend. Hot hot hot track. I did a sample recreation for Sam Scarfo on Def Jam, another blazing song, and I'm mixing 3 more songs for Swiss rockers "My Play". Tomorrow I'll be working on a carribean reggae riddim that i'm collaborating on with my favorite Cayman Islands producer Ben Hud. Allegedly, there will be an "A List" of Jamaican rappers each doing their own thing on this riddim. Cant wait to hear the finished songs.
So, as the blog title might indicate, Christmas came early for me this year. I got my big present tonight. Anyone who's read my blog for any length of time knows I love art, and my favorite living painter is a man named Paul Gantner. I vowed to own an original Gantner work before I died, and tonight i was given a Gantner painting for Christmas.
This is it.
This is a picture of it in the gallery it was purchased from, but dont let the small picture fool you, this thing is 3 feet wide by 4 feet tall, its REALLY big, (oil on canvas) and it looks so beautiful on my wall. It is hands down the best present anyone has ever given me. So Christmas came early for me this year. And now that i've figured out how to post pictures on my blog, i might do more of it. I have a great picture of Ben Hud in the Caymans holding a sting ray, anyone wanna see it? I bet Ben doesnt. I've also got some great Italy pictures. Maybe one will find its way here. Back to mixing for me, the night is not over just yet.
