Class Is In Session...

I couldn't be more attentive in someone else's session than I am now. I literally can't help but feel some type of "schoolery" sitting in this J. Cole session. I don't think I've seen anyone before that has this kind of work ethic. Have you ever come across someone that made you want to hang your head in shame, because you thought YOU worked hard until you ran into a TRUE grinder? Yeah, that's pretty much how I'm feeling right now. He just laid a verse (for someone who I'm not sure if I can name right now) and now he's up producing. Finishing a track that's absolutely BANANAS. After he finishes the track, it's time for him to then lay down his rhyme, which Im sure is going to be just as crazy as the track it's self. THEN, after he's done laying his vocals, it's singing time. I can't explain how excited I am to hear the finished product.

I named this blog "Class Is In Session" because I'm in the middle of learning why there should NEVER be an excuse as to why working isn't the first thing on my mind and on my "to do" list. I think that Cole has proven from start to now that "if you don't work, you don't eat". And I just want to add that I'm so with it. Just because you're signed, have a sweet deal and have your voice on every radio station doesn't mean that you can rest and live comfortably. There's so much more to do. In the back of my head, all I can think of right now is "Okay, I think I get it".... I'm not really sure why I'm such a hard headed person that always has to see things to understand it, but this was literally my wake up smack from God lol.

Missing my sister (Tanikka Charrae: superstar in the beginning of her stardom *be on the look out for her soon*) who's always with me whenever I'm in these sessions, I'm soaking up everything, itching in anticipation to see her at soundcheck later today (Ms. Lauryn Hill show) to tell her everything that I've learned (like a kid on her first day of school). Also missing his awesome keyboard player (who's now out on the road with Drake), Ron Gilmore who calls me a lazy prodigy, all I can think about right now is how I want to make him proud by grinding like I've learned this morning. Well at 5:08am, I'm signing out. It was lovely speaking to you again.


Love You,
Yoli
