Welcome back members! Hope that your holiday and time off was feel with joy and love. Now its time to get back to the job in hand. In a few more days, it will be December. Only one more month before the END OF THE YEAR.
THE TAKEOVER IS UPON US.
There is still a lot to do. Individually, I think we've been sharpening our skills as artists/ producers. That's the way it should be until we can get together and blend our creativity. So this may be my last post until we/ I actually get a project started and a sample of something. So, until then, this has been another MSU announcement.
Mind State University (MSU) was founded in 2010 by Professor C. Baker and Dr. Trunks Defreese. Our purpose is to properly "school" the uneducated to the form of art; whether it be through words or visual/sound description. The faculty is well broad and each teacher is skilled in the field of language arts (or lyricism lol). Bare witness to what's about to go down. This is NOT a test. WE MAJOR!!! (Another University Joke)

HAPPY THANKSGIVING MIND STATE U (MSU ANNOUCEMENT LETTER)
Because of the holiday, there will be no school for the rest of the week. But don't think we're sleep on the job. Homework will be issued. For this weekend home assignment, practice your writing skills, get your bars up to par. With 2011 coming fast, the anticipation to start the new school year is crutical. Today was spent searching for inspiration for the first experiment " The Wire Tap: The Leaking of Real Music." So far, there has been a couple of people willing to lend their voices to help towards the cause. This is the list on artists/songs....
The Firm (Nas, AZ, Nature, Foxy Brown)- Phone Tap
2Pac- Brenda's Got A Baby
Ross Royce- Wishing On A Star
Minnie Ripperton-Inside My Love
Nas-One Mic
Ray Charles- Yesterday
This is just a few samples we plan to try out. More on the way!!!
Work is hard from done. I hope that we can get started on the ground work (Beats) as soon as January 2011. Til then, this has been a M.S.U. announcement. And again, have a nice and blessed holiday faculty members and students.

Samples for the experimentation
This song has a message and I personally feel this song to the heart. So I think its real enough to put a MSU spin on it. R.I.P. Pac the poet.

FIRST ORDER OF BUSINESS: First project (Concept and introductory process)
The first step to success is always the most challenging move to make. You only get one real first spot to make it or break it. So when that being said, how you we attack this game that many dwell in like that dungeon and dragons bullshit? Well, first thing to do is map out the mission....second plan a strategy to successfully accomplish that mission...third went the time is exactly right.....HIT 'EM HARD!!!!
Ok!!!
The Mission: Build a story on M.S.U. as a group and a concept based on the purpose of our movement.
The first project should be (hopefully will be) called The Wire Tap: The Leaking of ReaL Music. The storyline behind the title is this. I know some people know the HBO series, "The Wire." If not, this is partly the story. Its based in Baltimore during a series of events surrounded by politics, drug trafficking, and life as a kid in the hood. In the series, "the wire" indicated the "tapping" or tracing of a call of a drug dealer to source or connect to connect. This usually led to a key link to a bust or a solution to the case.
The Strategy: Flip the concept into an actual project.
So The Wire Tap is just a clever way of saying our music is link to something great and powerful. The leaking of real music. Our story is to basically combine our strengths as lyricists and producers to deal to the fiends of music. Every time, you plug your iPod or mp3 players to the computer to sync our song, the wire is tapped. Every time you put your headphones on to zone out, the wire is tapped. Every time you press download on a link, the wire is tapped.
The Timing: A.S.A.P.
This will be an experience for us all, even if you have recorded before. The grind has been paying off. The people are asking what is M.S.U.? We had the drive. We want this because we all have a dream of making change reliant to Hip Hop and Music period. Salute to the flags of the United Mind State of the University.
IT BEGINS NOW!!!!

MSU's very own's In-Def's newest beat tape. I remember the first time I link up with this dude. His mans Mike put me on to his he released his tape (Is This Hip Hop Enought??? Go cop that too btw). After getting to know him and then later on meeting him face to face, I knew this cat was the truth. He knew more about the true depths of hip hop and music in general. It was an honor to know homey. Let me chill tho the music speaks for itself. So cop it for yourselves and witness history before history.
