January 31 The Days Of A Knight double albums have become way too long to a point where they can not fit on a double disc so it has now been broken up into 6 parts with a possible other 2 on the way. The first one will be subtitled Future Imperfect. As of right now it is 15 tracks spanning from 1999 to the end of 2000. The second chapter is subtitled In Biblical Times and right now has 15 songs from early 2001. January 30 Two more tracks down today. I just finished up two songs for Lost In A Dream, both re-recordings of old songs of mine that I was not happy with. "Instincts" and "Eternal Sentence", both came out a hell of a lot better than their original counterparts. Both were written during the Dead In A Dream / Beyond The Life time period. January 29 Today I did the intro for the Beyond The Life album featuring Larysa. I have some speaking parts and she sings back up vocals on it. A beautiful way to start a classic album, it was the last track needed to complete the album. January 28 Two tracks completed today, a song for The Days Of A Knight entitled "I'm Blastin'" which features verses from Royal Kingdom Legends C- Write/Genero and Gambino/No Nucks. I also recorded "Fame Tattoo", a one verse and chorus track for my man's tattoo parlor, basically an advertisement over a dope ass beat. January 23 Today I recorded "Dragging Me Down", the last recorded for Heat Of The Moment. It's over a rock beat and I perform a rock style singing chorus on the track. January 15 Today I got back to the studio for the first time in months and recorded one of the final songs left for Urban Legacy Vol III. The song is called "Where Do We Go" and features Chad Hartley from the band Sons Of Leo on the chorus. January 13 Took a break for the holidays while I was working a lot. Now it's time to get back to this rappin' shit.
February 9 I've had an infected cut in my mouth for about a week now and talking has been nearly impossible let alone rapping but today I decided work through the pain. I started with adding a verse and chorus to an old track I did with Concept. I threw on another verse from an unreleased Concept track, did a quick chorus and recorded those to make "The King's Off Guard" for Lost In A Dream. I left my first verse and 'Cept's verse alone. Afterwards I did an alternate version of "Lonely Moment" which originally appeared on Rumorz Of War and featured Genero, Concept and Perceval. I used my original verse, a verse from the planned remix and another unused verse, all on the original beat with a modified chorus. That completes Lost In A Dream. February 1 I dropped two tracks today, both for Lost In A Dream. The first being an alternate version of "Knight's Doctrine" off of 2002's Rumorz Of War album, it originally featured Revenant and Pathologic. The new version is a solo with three verses by me and a spoken piece by Path at the end, recorded on the original beat. The second track was the alternate version of "Silent Confessions" off of Dead In A Dream from 2002 as well. I had originally written six verses for the song but only used three, this version is the other three verses with the same beat and same chorus on it.
