Current mood:  awake
Category: Goals, Plans, Hopes
So today I turn 25 ... and I'm not quite sure how I feel about that on the real.  I've never been one to dwell over age, but maybe that's because I haven't been old yet.  I didn't even think 25 was old until "someone" pointed out it was a quarter of a century ... when your age has a a nick name like that, you just can't deny the truth. lol

    When starting this blog I didn't really have a reason to write it, but now I see this is like my last leg.  I've got 5 years till I'm "Too old" to be marketable, shit who am I kidding I'm not marketable now lol.  None the less if somethings gonna pop off I need to make those moves myself, or get the right people in place to make those move for me.

   Either way, this rap thing has been a blast ... I've met/performed with some of my favorite artists, smoked a lot of free weed, got hit on by women that wouldn't of given me the light of day if I didn't rap lol.  I can't complain to be honest, and what's crazy is 2010 looks to be so much bigger than 09 it's unbelievable.  So I'll take this opportunity to break down what we have planned for the next 12 months !


Funk Volume Collab Track

   So I entered a contest titled "Don't Fu$k Up our Beats" held by my dudes at www.myfunkvolume.com. I didn't win the contest, per say ... but they picked 6 artists to collab with outside the contest. (Which I am honored to be a part of)  Besides myself you may recognize names like my homie Cryptic Wisdom, Swizzz, and Hopsin.  If you aren't hip to Hopsin his new album dropped this week on Ruthless Records ... in fact peep Hop here.  The track will be 10 minutes long and feature some really dope artist from all over the country.  I'll be posting another blog when the songs done with links to all the artist, this is a big cross promotion project goin down ... so hopefully we can get the words out to some people we wouldn't of otherwise.

"Allow Me to Demonstrate" free download album
   That's right another album, but this time I wanted to give something back to my fans.  This album will be up for free download at www.sethrock.com and I'll be burning stupid amounts of CDs to hand out at shows and all around the Dayton area.  I guarantee everyone you know will have a copy of this CD.  Even if they just use it to roll blunts on LOL.  I got collabs on this album with Section 8, Yung Rob, and I got a joint for my dude Eklypz Period too, BONKERS !!! But, yeah ... so the album is like 60% written and we're gonna get in the studio real soon, so we'll have some tracks up sooner than you think.  This album is gonna be a monster, and it's free so you can't even hate bitch !

"Famous" Video
  So a few months back we (Halfbreed, Triple R, and I) filmed a video for our track "Famous" (which can be found at www.beats4legends.com)  The video went great, we had fun making it, and it came out lookin a lot better than I expected!  We'll be dropping that 10th of November of 2009 I hear so be in the lookout for that video.  Also I hear rumors of an "I Don't Love You" video in the works for 2010, but that's all hearsay.

"Fuck Seth Rock" the album

  I know I've been saying this shits coming out for like over a year now, but this time I mean it.  18 tracks all produced by VTZ, so you already know what it's gonna be.  So far there are only 3 collabs on the whole damn album ... but you can catch tracks with Cardiac, Ant E, and D.O.C (from Menace 2 Sobriety)  You might find one or two more collabs if I find the right cats, but other than that it's all me lol.  We're scheduled to begin recording on this mu fucker Jan-Feb 2010 so be ready mutha fuckas !

Camp Menace
   I get more questions about this than anything else these days, so I'm gonna break it down for you.  Camp Menace is the super group brain child of my man D.O.C and it's members are myself(Seth Rock), King Chasta, and D.O.C.  You can check out our first song ever "Camp Unite" which can be found on Menace 2 Sobriety's new album Diary of Addiction and on our myspace.  We'll have a little mixtape for yall early next year, and we'll begin on our first studio album working title "Vajayjay Hunnaz" haha yall already know what it is ...

Questions, comments, suggestions, just hate me ... lemme know wussup.  Dayton we doin it big ...

So as some of you may have known last week we shot the video for Halfbreed's "Famous" featuring myself and Triple R. 

The shoot started on Wednesday in Dayton, we did a hotel scene and a few driving shots and then headed off to Columbus to shoot the final scene and some other random shots. 

This being my first "real" video it was hard to get an actual grasp on the over all feel for the video, since we shot it all out of order.  None the less I have such confidence in HB's vision and also the crew's ability (I'm sorry I forgot the production companies name) that I don't see this video being anything less than amazing.

There was a little trouble over the weekend with the rain, but HB wrapped up his last shot yesterday and now we just wait on the editing process.  I wanna give thanks to everyone who made this project possible:


Halfbreed (www.Beats4Legends.com)


Triple R (www.OfficialTripleR.com)

VTZ (www.VTZBeats.com)


AI (www.AIBeats.com

Jordan & Adam from the crew, yall made this shit go so smoothly ...

I can't express how much this crew kicked ass !!!

I hope those dude didn't hate me because I'm gonna hire them again in the future hahaha !!!

If you havn't peeped the song yet it's the one that's been playing this whole time.  As soon as the video is done I'll post it on here for everyone to see.

Current mood:  annoyed

First off let me start by saying the title of the CD is supposed to be ironic.  Now some might find this to be overkill but ...

i⋅ro⋅ny

[ahy-ruh-nee, ahy-er-]

–noun, plural -nies.
1. the use of words to convey a meaning that is the opposite of its literal meaning: the irony of her reply, “How nice!” when I said I had to work all weekend.
2. Literature.
a. a technique of indicating, as through character or plot development, an intention or attitude opposite to that which is actually or ostensibly stated.
b. (esp. in contemporary writing) a manner of organizing a work so as to give full expression to contradictory or complementary impulses, attitudes, etc., esp. as a means of indicating detachment from a subject, theme, or emotion.
   With this being said, if you're some white dude that thinks he can rap and you wanna hit me up sayin "FUCK YOU , YOU'RE RACIST" then fuck it ... I'm racist ... against white people.  If that's really how people feel I dunno how else to respond.

    The album title is not supposed to be "against" white people, contrary to popular belief I'm decently white myself.  The idea for the title came from the movie "White Men Can't Jump" (obviously)  In this movie the white guy is under estimated by all the black guys in the movie despite the fact that his skills overwhelm theirs in every way.

   I feel a similar thing happens in the rap scene, when I walk into most venues I'm looked at like the black sheep. (now that irony)  Once I hit stage though all that is gone, real recognize real, and that's the way it is everywhere in the world.

   Now people want to harass me saying "race doesn't matter blah blah blah" and I agree with them in some sense.  Unfortunately the music world, and especially the hip hop world doesn't work that way.  First we were all Vanilla Ice, now it's Eminem ... so if I can't lose the stereotype I'll use it to my advantage.

   If after reading this you still hate me I have a couple of ex girlfriends you would get along with real well.
