Chicano
It was an interesting song to write, yet I realize that you can't always say every thing you want in a song. There is so much shit you want to say, but at the same time you don't want to make this long drawn out song. I tried capturing the feelings, but I'm sure there will be a part 2 down the line. More than anything I focused on how you never fully are from here or from there, "Ni de aqui, ni de aya."
Look out for it soon. It'll be in a collaboration the Sound Merchants and I are working on.
Sorry for not keeping the blog updated these past weeks, I'll get back on it. One

"Infinite" New Joint (+ Lyrics)
This joint was just me letting some shit off my chest...peep the lyrics....
"They say time is of the essence...
but im blessed enough to question...
you know the rule of thumb as far as you can stretch it...
the world is infinite...
dont minimize your interest'...
maximize your accolades...
and ostracize irrelevance...
you know the benefits of living in this culture...
think outside the box...
dont ever get yourself chauffeur...
cuz then...you aint controlling where you coasting...
boast about the toaster's out...now homies on a coaster...
they wet'em up...nonchalantly...they set'em up...
get'em up to heaven...or just send them down to hellish ruts...
whatever fuck...homie gone..so the L is up...
fuck a luck cuz fate is always on my tail and catching up...
just like the rest of me...anger will get the best of me...
they all said it...im hard headed like destiny...
and aint no way around it homie....i don' came to terms...
the world is infinite...but infinite is just a word...
the world is infinite...
the end is hard to tell....
i tell it how i see it...
aint no telling where it fell..
cuz aint no promises...
only honor is dealt...
the day i finally get it...
is the day tomorrow is killed (2x)
i am passed the boundaries...
my mind is jaded the only thing that I hated is fate is always surrounding me...
and steady hounding me...
dont seem to count on me...
but held accountable for all the shit around of me...
i paint a picture of eternity...
hang it by the clock...to watch the years that slowly murder me...
and i dont care if you aint heard of me....
cuz as an artists i am only here to try and further me...
cuz honestly...that aint nothing to a G...
leave it up to God and He gon' leave the rest to me...
and if he don't then I will surely settle scores...
setting up for battle...getting ready for a war...
and in the midst of all of this bullshit...
im living in the chaos and they asses do shit...
so i am chillin on the brink...
push me pass the limit as im exiting the flick…peace
the world is infinite...
the end is hard to tell....
i tell it how i see it...
aint no telling where it fell..
cuz aint no promises...
only honor is dealt...
the day i finally get it...
is the day tomorrow is killed" (2x)

Trying this blogging stuff out! (1st Entry, maybe the last lol)
I go by the name of Scheme representing the Molemen collective out from Chicago.
I'm sitting here in a hotel lobby in Indiana and figured fuck it, Let me start a blog! lol
I would want this blog to be filled with random things that catch my attention online and offline. I'll try to put up info on new music and try to upload random videos of me working on music and doing some other random shit lol I say, "I would want" because for all I know this can be my first and last entry lol
The reason I started this was because I find myself reading a lot of other people's blogs and there's a lot of entertaining stuff out there. So I figured why not? I am currently working on an album tentatively titled Now or Never...so I figured I could keep people up on what's going on with me through the blog…
Let's see….
I'll start with some random info about myself:
Love music
Born and raised in Chicago (west side and northwest side)
First tape I bought was Cypress Hill (1991)
Started writing raps when I was like in 6th grade (them shit's were soooo horrible lol)
Stopped writing for awhile and started again in sophomore year in High School (shout out to the homie Gustavo for getting me back into the writing tip)
Put out an EP with my homies Establish and R-Slek in '01 (just a handful of CD's were made for us to pass out)
Met Visual who introduced me to Panik, who then added me to the Molemen roster
Dropped an LP (For My People), a mixtape with Visual (This is Now), and another mixtape with Decay and Astonish (The Biz Vol. 1)
I've been featured in the Molemen's Chicago City Limits Vol. 2 and the Lost Sessions
Now working on Now or Never (got a good handful of songs ready, just need to fill in the blanks, hopefully have it done by the end of this year)
Fav. Rappers? Nas, Big Pun, Big L, Andre 3000, and Ghostface
Other shit I listen to besides Hip Hop? Mana, The Mars Volta, Ramon Ayala, Al Green, Café Tacuba, Cadetes, Calle 13, Frankie Ruiz, Eddie Santiago, Carlos Santana, Lauryn Hill, Red Hot Chili Peppers, some R&B, some norteñas, a little bit of everything honestly.
Fav. Food? Whatever you treat me too. Lol as you can see, I'm pretty open on this subject lol
What's been in constant rotation on my Ipod lately? Lupe, Ghostface, Royce da 5'9", Kanye, and Decay's "Unlikely Villain" Mixtape (this shit is dope, go to Decay's myspace to download it) (www.myspace.com/emceedecay)
Why is the album going to be called "Now or Never"? The title fit my mind set, it's basically Now or Never, it's my time to make this happen, there's no turning back
Artists I would like to work with: Alchemist, Nas, Brother Ali,
DJ Premier, Carlos Santana, Cee-Lo, Evidence, Calle 13, Ghostface, Royce da 5'9", Black Thought, AZ….the list can go on and on! Lol
I'm done for now lol maybe I'll be back again, maybe I won't lol we'll see what happens!
Peace
