Lessons Learned

I said I wouldn't do this 
Give you the satisfication
But I'm here anyway so let's do it. 
It came and went, as good as it was it's done 
Lessons have been learned 

Do I hate you? 
Hell no that takes effort 
Dislike you? Most definately 
But that shouldn't surprise you 
Words have been said. None I would take back 
See that stick up your ass? Go take it out 

Excuse me, I'm venting 

Some might say shots fired 
Nah that's long for man I'm just saying what I feel 
Like said in a previous post 
I write for me not you 

Lessons have been learned 
New people met too 
I'm a big girl but still got ish to sort out 
Some unspoken words and feelings 
But for now we'll leave that aside 

Lemme tell you bout the guy I met last night 
He had these beautiful brown eyes 
Except they were filled with quite a few lies 
But hey

Excuse me, I'm venting 

Queen is what I am 
Any less ain't worth it 
Don't get it twisted it was worth it 
The banter, love and fun but 
I'm a grown woman
I had to realise my faults 
Anger, trust issues and all
but all in due time 
I will prosper
Just like that 

Before it all happened I was happy 
After I became a bit lost 
Slowly finding my way though 

IBK, 
Ibs, 
Ibukun 
It's all the same 

Think I' m gonna let the past catch up with me
Nah it's there for a reason 
Movin too fast ain't got time to look back 
We all got skeletons in our closets 
I respect that 
But it's time to fight back 

Got these demons doin jumpin jacks 

Excuse me, I'm venting 

You're funny unoe..
Me failed? 
Hunny you got it twisted 
Count to three 
Go on 
One, two, three  
Oops you just missed it
Success already caught me
So I guess it's time you kicked it

Female Music Producer or Nah?

Anyone that knows me, knows I always wanna be the first disabled something.......

Call me crazy, but I might wanna become a music producer! Hear me out! The last few weeks have been a bit insane with exams and revision. This has basically made me behave out of character quite a lot and as a result I've started to lean towards music for comfort...

If you follow my blog closely you'll probably notice that music is a big thing on here and even when I write poems I usually attach a song to try and put you in the same mind frame I was in at the time and evoke similar feelings. Most of my poems are written in response to how a particular song makes me feel in connection to a particular topic weighing on my mind so I guess you could say music is a big part of my life.

I still feel slightly cray that I want to do this, but with there not being that many female producers out there, can you blame me, but that's a discussion for a different day...

If I was to take this in fully and give it a shot, I don't think I would work in the afrobeats sector for the simple fact that the music all seems to sound the same and nothing seems to branch out and sound different. Don't get me wrong, there's probably artists and producers who do have very different sounds and want to put a twist on afrobeats, but because it doesn't fit into the social norm right now it doesn't get the exposure it deserves and in the same way if your not attached to a big label or know someone who could push your sound out your kinda stuck recording tracks making extremely slow progress, but like they say God's time is the best!

However you could still say that you gotta start from somewhere and if someone doesn't try and change the scene no one will! But for me I would love to work producing music for Rock/ Alternative bands so bands like Papa Roach, Hollywood Undead, Nickleback, The Script and Disturbed, but HU especially like it would be non stop Hip Hop/Rock all day and that I can deal with!  Or imagining producing a song for Train! squeals! 

For me they connect with me on a deeper level and somehow soothe me through my weird fazes, while afrobeats just seems to be about shake your booty! OMG imagine producing for Buble faints! 

Yes, I have a obsession with a grown man, but like come on!! Justin Timberlake too! I absolutely love that man and i'm really upset I can't see him in concert :( Silly exams!  

If I had it my way I would work with these guys:


  •  Dr Dre 
  • Eminem 
  • Pharrell 
  • Timbland 
  • Babyface 
  • Danger Mouse 
  • Pheelz 
  • TSpize 
  • Philkeyz 
  • LeriQ
  • Bahbow
  • Maleek Berry 
So what you'd say? Go for it or nah?























Happy birthday Pheelz!
