Hey Fam, I know some of you may be wondering why things have been relatively quiet around my way. Well I've been working very hard to finish up my sophmore release along with making some transitions personally and professionally. I am on hiatus so to speak, but rest assured that some great things are on the horizon. I'll keep you posted as always with any new updates. It feels strange in one sense not to be working (gigging), but I am finding time to do and think on some things I haven't been able to for a long time. Allow me to seque (seg-wa) for a moment to do some reflection. In this business of music on any level if you do this professionally is an uphill battle and you must be equipped in order to keep up and eventually win. It can be very taxing and time consuming. Many sacrafices are required, but if you love what you do and are passionate about it then it's well worth it. Generally I'd be working with management planning the next big event, scouting other acts or lining up future performances, but there comes a time in which it's neccessary to sit back for awhile and do some soulsearching, prayer and meditation as to what the next strategy plan will be. We can become so engulfed in our jobs, careers or ministries that we find ourselves communing less and less with our powersource, GOD. Could it be we stay busy as to not deal with issues we face in our personal lives? Are we really just that driven or do we hide behind our positions or stage personas? That's a question only you can answer. Every now and again I have to check myself to make sure that I am still listening to the voice of GOD and not my own. It can happen so easily and there were times when I found it was me I was hearing and not Him. At that moment I had to slow it down get refocused. I'm so thankful for His grace & mercy in which he shows along with unconditional love time and time again... Peace & Love alvin
