what's good fam? finally, I get a chance to sit down and come to y'all with everything going on with me. first I'd like to start off by saying that a LOT has been going on with me the past month or so. a lot of moves have been made and a lot of bridges have been burned. I've been putting in a lot of sweat, bloo, tears and time to make a success of myself. I must say that all of it has really made me into a better person and furthermore, a better artist. here's the skinny:

many of you know that I've been working with Memphis-based MajestiK Entertainment as far as doing shows and getting my name out. well, as of this past Saturday, I am now being represented by them as part of their management imprint. I feel so blessed by this because I've been stressing out about finding a manager to help me get my career together. it's very tiring putting all of the details of your career together with no help at all. so now, I can worry less about the major details and focus more on my music.

 for those of you who have heard my underground smash, "Realize", I would like to announce that it will be my first single! the song will be re-recorded and released to radio, so be on the lookout for that. also, MajestiK is hooking me up with a team of writers and producers to help me revitalize my sound, so be on the lookout for a new and improved Johnniemane!!

things are about to take a major turn for me. I've always dreamed of going in the direction that I am, but not to this magnitude. 2009 is my year, and I'm ready to reap my harvest. are you ready for what's to come?
