currently.

i've become a slave to the 9-5 [well 8-4:30 pm] world.
& while i've known what i am about to go on about, it was
nice to see it personified this weekend.


i have this slight, well bigger then slight, obsession for the
Ovation channel on direct tv's 274. yah. i think that's it. w/e
the point is this channel feeds all my artistic loves & fills
my crack like fixes for the arts in all fashions. from music
to dance to theater to fine arts to poerty etc etc etc etc. i
always seem to find some of the dopest shows on there. this
past weekend i found one that moved my fat ass into the kick
i'm currently on.


ROCK FRESH

it was/is a documentary on a few graffiti artists out in cali, both
southern & northern. KOFIE, TYER, TRIXTER, CALE are just
a few of the artists i remember off top. these men's love for their
art was empowering. it takes you thru basically the life of these
artists on a very personal level. director, danny lee, does an amazing
job really putting the audience in the life of a graff artist. without
giving away the whole thing, KOFIE says i'd rather be doin' some shit
i love & not make any money with the possiblity of doin' some shit i
kinda like to make money then doin' shit i hate, making money with no
time to put love into my art. i really recommend this movie to anyone
who truly loves art, graffiti & the power of the paint.


man. this shit hit something in me. i think more people should follow
this way of thinking. i've made it my mission to get back my shit. true,
this job pays the bills & i do like it. it's not a bad job, just not an artistic
one. i suppose this is where my place in the world is right now and i
embrace it to the fullest. i am lookin' out toward the world & being super
open to taking in whatever the universe has to put in my way. this includes
mending some holes in my life. i owe someone an explanation, an apology
& a few pieces on her album.


world, i'm ready to focus. well ok, i'm ready to try & focus more then usual.



peace.
-fresh.
