Gen Art.er....

Its been a while since Ive “been back”…..lol. But since Im really back this time and Ive been gone for soooo long. Some appreciated readers have expressed their concerns about whats going on with the blog. Well um…..ive been a lil busy. I am changing the world. And also currently listening to the latest creation by…….I wanna call him so many things right now, so Im just gonna call him…..Ibe. Ibe is a producer that I mange. Ibe also told me this morning that Mickey Factz already picked the beat. Made yesterday, tomorrow its gone. I told yall I am changing the world. Also please excuse any arrogant undertones in my writing this afternoon. This beat got me in a zone. The zone is so so Generation Art. For those who don’t know who or what Generation Art is. Look it up….naw Google aint even got that one yet. Gen Art is today. Gen Art is the calumniation of artists in this generation that’s ready for the revolution. And trust…..the revolution will not be televised. It will be streamed motherfucker. I wanna go in on some writing, which I haven’t done in a minute. I swear I wish yall could hear this beat right now. Its so adding to the ambience. And this writing is all freestyle by the way. Straight from locked in current thoughts at the moment…….LETS GO….

Gen Art…..my art and yours if youre that cool. Not their cool. Put on ya readers and feel alive. I see through fuckers. Im thinking about fucking. I got a girl now. Go figure with a figure. I know some aint gonna like that, but like me I don’t give a fuck. Im starting to only wear 3 jeans every week I think. And a few shirts……cause I love fashion. I even started modeling to capture the moment. Im so in love with my culture, I feel like Im cheating. I feel so alive in this current. I remember reading SteveO’s “Words By” before the new year and seeing everybody talking like they were down. Down about the establishment and feeling everyone is fake. I seen a culture ready for a lution. So here I am…..Here we are. Ftharest…..shouts to my crew in Jersey. That’s their mantra. See we crossing seas. But no literally Theophilus has a UK tour coming up. Right this second, but actually I had to take a 15 minute break from writing to chop it up with a fellow Gen Art.er. See we met on twitter cause we seen we both follow the same people and then thought eachother’s words sounded dam familiar. We exchanged gmails to keep the lution brewing and now Im back to writing. I wanna say something to make us join up even more, but I see it happening. I feel the Obama love in my state of union. Spoke with MeloXTRA earlier today. He’s down with the collection. Oh yea….The Collection is going down. Thanks to Ibe we will be hearing some of the dopest Gen Art.ers go in over the beautiful creations of Ibe. Speaking of beautifully created, if I don’t cop that Beauty Created by fellow Gen Art.er JB3…..that’s Jesse Boykins III ya’ll…..I think I might hurt myself. I took my homegirl to one of his many shows and she bought one on the spot. I don’t know why I didn’t get one then, but its all good. JB3 will be on the pod tonight. If not…..you could kill me……Im living life so much, I have some to spare. And yes the beat is still playing. Repeat that shit…….Repeat that shit! That’s the chant right there…lol. Good words in a short period of time….it feels good. But I gotta hit Luduh up. More Gen Art.er shit in the works. For real tho, I think I like Gen Art.er better than Gen Art….hahaha. Yea that’s what Im gonna use…..Play with your own squishy…..!!!! ……should I spell check?…..Naw what the fuck for! You know what I mean…….Im a Gen Art.er! Few more words as the beat plays out. I wanna end our ride together! And here it is….on que

Melo-X.......Da God....

I sit in this Saturday brunch hour appreciating life as art in the form of music, as it is performed through the soul of a Melo-X. Melo is one of the illest artist around. His lyrics are b-boy poetic. His swag is generation pop-art. His dress is melo squared. The scene is cough medicine ill. I'm just happy to be here ya know.......

He puts me in a place where I know good music exists. There are no worries or concerns. I'm able to let my guard down. I enter Melo's world as if I belong.....he is that inviting. As I enter I am greeted with an energy that suggest this isn't our first meeting, so I guess......it’s nice to meet ya. I am excited and relieved. I sit down and open just my ears. My literal vision is darkness, but I see Melo on a stage and this is my first time seeing him perform. The ambience is Brooklyn-Hard, so being from The Bronx I am appreciative. I smoked before I got here, but I have a clip left. I pull out the napkin that the clip is wrapped in and join the night's cipher. Melo's crowd is more like a union of dope emcees who don't rap. We each hold our own stage. And might I add the only race that matters here is Hip Hop........all colors and sizes, but one Hip Hop.

Melo blasts off with joints recreating vibes of yester-year. His samples are artfully picked and fit right into the perfect groove. Groove is a great word for Melo, as it hints at a classic stint in time, yet the delivery is right on point. It's like being at a dope house party and the DJ is rocking the whole night. Shit.....he even stops the music for a sec because dude keeps bumping the table.

Melo-X is a front-runner in our generation's elite. Not bound by boundaries, Melo dives into the pool of life reciting his own lyrics.....literally. The average sees the beard and thinks Philly. Others see a path, not walked by many. They see an artist who creates movement through music and vision, and they fuck with it. It's apparent he's authentic and they feel the same......shit we feel the same. I fucks with it Melo. I know a place too, and it's where we're at today and where we're going tomorrow. And we don't have to worry.......Melo is conducting this. Let's hop into the Renaissance.

Question the vultures who only read titles and headlines, and then write their own articles. Fuck with those who molest your soul in a positive way. Take their gems and wear em across your heart. Love thy neighbor in a pair of Adidas. Capture moments of those who put spin on life and force you to move. Society suggests looks, the ill create them. Melo is sick........There is no treatment. He creates his own medicine. Fortunate for we, he shares with us.

Shares with us........Melo-X...

Words from a Generation.........

My boy Steve-O from the acclaimed GFCNewYork had the incredible idea of posting the current feelings of his peers on his blog over at C to the JL . I'm all for real emotions, so you know I was into this. There were some great thoughts. In all, the postings to me were artistic expressions of an interesting generation. I was happy to be a part of it. So check it out!!!!!!!!!!!!
