Day 1: TPVKL In The Streets and RIP Kwan Lee
If you do read the blog, you know today I got copies of The People Vs. Kwan Lee pressed. I sold a copy. One more copy than I thought I would have sold. A lot of people I knew personally had their hands out for a free copy, but didn't even take the time to download it (mind you it is amply available online, even for the most computer illeterate person.)
I'm not mad though, its progress.
I know the hood story. No one supports until it is relevant to. When its cool to know me. When you can say Kwan Lee is my homie to get laid. When you can get in a show for free. When you can be more popular than you are for taking a picture with me. Funny part is, that's capable now. But people are so superficial. They wait for the media to love you to even give an effort to like you.
I know when I do make it to the public standards, I'm going to have a lot of people around me now who are currently being blind to rising success. I produced half of Mala Reignz EP (by the way she is in The Source Unsigned Hype this month for all you superficial people, but she's been dope in my eyes. ITS ABOUT TIME!) and in most peoples opinion I produced all the bangers with the exception of OMG which is currently getting radio play. I also produced tracks on Elus official album The Process. I produced virtually every track I have ever rapped on, with the exception of industry beats and collabs I do as a feature. People like the music. But it means nothing because I'm not co-signed by any DJ or roll with a certain crew? You can't be serious!
This is why I have made the decision to release my final "album" November 11, 2011. The People Vs. Kwan Lee 3: RIP Kwan Lee. I'm done with the foolishness. New York is never going to change no matter what happens. Most are out for self even the ones closest to you at times. I've seen it happen. A lot of people eventually want to be the center of attention at some point, and have everything be all about them. Not my style. I don't need to be put under a microscope for everything I do. I don't want all eyes on me. I'm a paranoid person as is when one pair of eyes are on me.
I never was one to be the star. I'm not greedy about anything in light. Have no problem with sharing the spotlight. Just let me eat and don't play cutthroat and cut me out is all I ever will ask. And of course, give credit where its due.
I've said enough. Can't break Law 4. Peace!

TPVKL Is Now In The Street!

So People Are Listening
Honestly, it is not easy pushing your music sometimes. I'm in a superficial city. Its about who's backing you or who gives the a-ok. Its about the "official" websites and internet radio stations giving you a co-sign. You would think that my home New York would show love the most, but in reality I have gotten more love out of state than here. California loves it like I am from there. I'm even getting love overseas. It boggles me when just 2 years ago I got told stick to producing, and now the people who told me that are out the loop. Part of me feels like saying I told you, but I'm gonna keep my cool....
If anything, when I get my star power up (ill explain that another day) I will have a voice to say who I do this for. Music is my stress relief. I make music for the people who go through real things. I can't talk about killing people and being some big time dude when in actuality I take the train, I'm always broke and wait on my homie with the car to go places. That's not me. One day I will officially be the voice for people who weren't "the man" or the popular guy. For the kids who got picked on, weren't part of the in crowd and they called losers. That will be me. I got y'all....
