Listen up everyone, The long awaited update is here and a lot of you been waiting patiently and I appreciate it. It's been a few months of dedication and hard work to do all of this and I have announcements and updates to release so lemme get started.

With that being said, first, as you can tell I am no longer going by Young'n. Why? Well I address it in the new single, but it's simple. Some people copy me and call themself Young'n as well as I'm pretty sure I wasn't the first to come up with it either being that it's slang for Young One. Also I feel as from I been established as Young'n I've matured lyrically, mentally, physically, musically. So with that I changed my name to Lethal Illness (L.I.). Also this name however, I'm pretty damn certain I'm first to use it. I researched quite some time for the perfect name no one has used, yet it had to be me, it had to have some relation to me. Well, I'm currently in process of trademarking it aswell.

Moving on, Spitting Fire Records. The label I have given birth to and have help raised many artists though is sadly but for the better, no more. Yes, I still have my studio, it is still open up to my artists, and still open to rent studio time. It had a good run of underground artists some great, some bad, some to never come out publicly through the label. I have many reasons why, but my biggest is because I need to focus more so on my music career then to worry about rather than the others. Moss and Tuff are still my top boys, I'll get to Moss in the next paragraph, but Tuffy is still on the long hiatus and sadly I don't think is coming off for a long time. As for the other artists I had planing to release records through Spitting Fire, you see didn't work out fully. All I'll say on the record was I had a instrumental rock/alternative band, isn't that a kick on Spitting Fire Records. However, I'm still working with the lead guitarist for some thing on my album, more on that later. The label might be back later down the line, but that's not set in stone.

Where to start with my boy? Well, Moss also participated with my big update and released a new single, TODAY! It's called "Formless (Freestyle)" and it was produced by himself and engineered by me. Hop on over to Moss's Official Myspace to hear that new track, its fuego. Speaking of my boy being back and better then ever. Being the label is gone, we are either goning to start a production team or hip hop group (maybe even both) in the near future. No idea, on names or nothing but again, that's not set in stone either.

If you haven't already heard my official DJ, DJ Fabonick, you should check him out here. Soon he will be releasing another mixtape "Now That's What I Call a Blend Vol. 1". If you cop it when it comes out not only will you get the chance to get an mp3 of "Story of My Life", but also get a few more never heard before tracks as well as some of the hottest blends around from the king of r&b blends himself, Dj Fabonick.

Finally, my last announcement for now, my mixtape. As you all know, I shelfed "Sick By Definition Vol. 1" a while back, because I felt that I want to go in a different route, and I still do. My next mixtape is in the works and the new mixtape is entitled "Story of My Life" the same as the single. A lot is written, but I don't know how much I'll write before I start to cut tracks. I get a lot of amazing unsampled beats from Moss that I keep throwing towards the album which I'm not even planing to announce yet (nor do I know when it will release or start being worked on). Regardless, I'm excited because this is my first in studio project and it's going to be my best work yet.

---Also a side note. After this week and the announcements set in, I will be posting bulletins everyday, every other day, whenever I feel like it. The bulletins will be posts of Hip Hop, music, and world news articles (basically anything I find interested and think everyone else will to). Just to share some shit with all you, the headline will be exactly what the article contains, and at the bottom of it will be my player if you want some play music to go along. If not just pause it, but the articles will be worth it.

Hip Hop is Life - duecee,
L dot I, Lethal Illness
