this is my mixEP, Ripple Cut 1: Assorted Indulgence.  quality over quantity, ya dig?  i have a few beats from Remot, one from my brother from another mother D. B.ILL & the rest are "industry" instrumentals.  

a running time of 34 minutes and some odd seconds....truly a labor of love, this took a long time, a lot of patience & frustration, but i hope you enjoy.  

Ripple Cut 1: Assorted Indulgence

Little Brother's my favorite hip hop group still, so I have mad respect for 9th, Phonte, & Big Pooh...and this Pooh joint always banged, so I had to get the beat and say a few things...

i do what i want on tracks, in case you were wondering...

Strongest Square (Whatchu Know?)

the intro to the mixEP, Ripple Cut 1: Assorted Indulgence...it's not really a mixtape, can't really call it an album, it's definitely good music, so we'll just call it a mixEP.  

i like potato chips.  a lot.  i wanted to use them as a metaphor...and i was hungry. 

Indulge

shouts to Skyzoo, one of the dopest emcees out...shout out 9th Wonder, producer extraordinaire...Beautiful Decay is a great song, and I just wanted to rock out to the beat, see if I could hold my own on it...

Wrigley Rappers

shout out to Remot once again!  this is track 13 off the mixEP, Ripple Cut 1: Assorted Indulgence.  something smooth, something real, something cool...

i'm a simple man y'all...i overthink a lot, but i'm very simple.  there's this woman I want to be with & both circumstances & consequences prevent that from happening right now.  

i know y'all have been there before too.  or you might be there right now...

Like To Know* (prod. by Remot)

the last track on the mixEP, Ripple Cut 1: Assorted Indulgence...shout out to my homegirl Emma C. for gracing the record with her presence and voice...

who am i talking about? she knows who she is.  i don't think she knew what it was until i made this joint for her.  I LOVED the original record, shouts to Jean Grae, Ne-Yo & Talib Kweli...rest in peace Luther Vandross...i just had to talk to Lucy a little bit on this beat.  just had to let her know how I feel...

thanks for listening to the project.  i truly truly appreciate each and every one of you for checking this out.
