Coming back from my by-weekly meeting with the department of social services when I was confronted by an army of musical terrorists, yes that's right the 1980`s ghetto blasting hood are back this time with a digital companion 'the ipod' and a nice set of battery powered Bose speakers!
Blasting out their urban vibes, to the not so cheery commuters, singing their hood rap to the likes of Snoop DO double G - and NWA - 'Fuck The Police' !
Only one man was brave enough to approach them to ask them to switch it off - however they replied with the words 'I paid for my ticket, home boy - tis rude to ask me to lower my stereo, upgrade to first class if you can't stand the bass' and turned up the volume to the tune of 'Busta Rhymes - Fired Up'.
They then gave the whole carriage an encore of the tune incoporating the story of the man who asked them to turn it off - lyrically speaking it was damn good - and even some people cheered and clapped - though the man they were dissing grunted quietly to himself. I personally found it funny and at one point felt the need to join in - however they were much ruder than I and I felt they might be carrying a knife or two - so best to leave the homies be, till the next time.
Today has been just another one of those days where it has been too hot to do anything but slack - however due to the fact that I am trying to get my feet off the ground I've been working my ass off and thus rewarded myself with a few pints of genius (thats Guinness to you fools) and a bag of dry roasted! Boy it is rewarding.
I visited another work from home studio that has been going for 20 years plus and they had two Ferrari's on the drive - it goes to show, if you put your mind to it, you can accomplish anything! Image isn't everything, if you can present yourself to the industry well with a clear mind set then you will succeed and you will meet your goals. It just takes patience, and a calm approach - being too pushy drives people away.
Today is too hot - but this genius juice sure has cooled me down, as before I was sweating like a pig on ecstasy!
