Post Canada Day

   Wuddup Gang!?

        I'm in the lab working on some new music and just wanted to say that I hope all my Canadians had a good Canada Day. I spent mine in the Capital, Ottawa, Canada, where it's always the livest on Canada's Birthday. It was awesome to have nice weather for a change and I was fortunate to catch some of the celebrations iinvolving the Royal Couple.

       I know the Makin' That Doughski Music Group Movement was also downtown in full effect. The new mixtape "Gramz into Grandz vol. 2" was released yesterday so they were gettin' it in on the streets. As a matter of fact Doughski and Lil' Thrilla stopped by my spot later in the evening for drinks, fireworks, and politic'n to wrap up their successful day. Be sure to check out their site.

      Anyway I gotta get back to this mix but hope y'all had a good Canada Day and I'll get @ y'all real soon!

Giving Thanks

        I just put together a little video blog thanking y'all for fuelling me with the motivation to really get it in!

Envy Magazine July Issue

   Wuddup Gang!?

  Hope all is well on your end. Everything is good here. I've been really busy workin' in the studio and let me tell you there have been a few discoveries! I've actually been focusing on a lot of what I like to call "pop-house" records for my European market. You know the records I'm talking about, the faster, feel good, get up and move club beats. This is definitely helping my client list and fan base expand and it's refreshing trying something totally out of the box for me. Anyway other than working in the studio, I've also been slated to feature in a few Online Magazines and I will cover them all as they approach. With that being said, I am doing a feature for Envy Magazine. In the article I will be discussing things like what I take with me on the road and who the first major artist was that I had a chance to work with. I also want to mention that dealing with this publication has been great thus far. Everything is laid back yet professional. So S/O Envy Mag. And S/O to y'all for readin' this blog. I haven't posted directly on here in over two months and still almost had 2000 hits since then. Ok back to the Mag. Look for me in the July issue coming out on JULY 7th, 2011!!!

(June Issue)

  One last quick note, I will be getting my first ink done real soon. I'm looking into getting Mitch Roberts, a tattoo artist in Toronto on it. I'm really excited about it and can't wait to show y'all. In terms of music, I've been bumping The Weeknd's, House of Balloons non-stop recently. If you're finding your music a little stale... don't sleep on this. 

OK well that's what it is, stay blessed.

Things are Heating Up

Wuddup Gang?!

            So last week was quite eventful. Had a chance to see a few local artists tear up the stage opening for Fat Joe followed by a trip to the Junos. The Junos were cool as it was nice to see some legendary Canadian Artists such as Neil Young, Brian Adams, Sarah McLaughlin, and Shania Twain. However, the Hip-Hop element to the awards show was essentially non-existent as they had already presented the  awards the previous night; furthermore, there were no urban acts scheduled to perform. Drake was an excellent host and the skits were really funny though.

            On another note, Muzik Live and Pink Lips Entertainment are bringing down Compton’s own, The Game. This is going to be a good show and I’m looking forward to seeing dude bless the mic. It’s still a few weeks away so I’ll keep you posted on that. What I do know is that yours truly, The Belvy Kid will be in attendance. 

            Other than that I have a substantial transaction being finalized at the end of the month so things are looking good for the summer. Well…that’s the update on the Sean Frost Story. Get @ y’all real soon.

Ottawa to Toronto This Weekend. Fat Joe to Junos

     Wuddup Gang!?

        
            It's been pretty much business as usual over here...just makin' music and grindin'. Thank God the weather is finally starting to get nice again up in Canada. It's been tough staying motivated with the cold and snow coming and going and coming back again. It's funny that as soon as the weather starts getting nice, you can really feel it in the air huh? Anyway something else you start to see once the weather gets nice is all the other artists coming out of hibernation. Everyone has been either just bangin' beats or writing, waiting for the season to showcase their works and talents. This weekend I'll be coming out of the lab to actually see what's really good on the scene both in Ottawa and in Toronto.

   Fat Joe will be in Ottawa City Friday Night along with a bunch of nasty upcoming artists. Shout out to the homies Young G, Khalil, Swisha T and everyone else that's set to rock the stage. So essentially as long as nobody's on some kid flex, it should be a good show. I'm a definitely reach and show my support for all these artists that are on their grind. So anyone that's in Ottawa tomorrow night, this is where you should be...

Ottawa's got some good talent but at the same time they also have a lot of counterfeits so if you're just trying to blow smoke then be good with it and please don't approach me. If you real....holla at the Belvy Kid!

         On another note, it's Juno week in Toronto and I'm stoked to be heading down Saturday Night to attend Sunday's Juno Awards. Drake will be hosting the 40th Annual Celebration of the Canadian Music Awards which is a real good look.  Shout-Out to my dude Sorin who's comin' for the ride. Definitely gonna get it poppin' this weekend.

        So that's pretty much it on my end...makin' beats and stoked for a busy weekend in Ottawa and Toronto. I hope y'all have a good one as well and I'll let you know what was good with everything when I get back. Concert, Junos, Juno Afterparty...That's what it is kid!

 The Sean Frost Story.

Business as Usual

  Wuddup Gang!?

      Hope y'all are having a good weekend. I'm just getting over the flu myself so I haven't been doin' too much the last couple of days. I did feel well enough to get some work done in the studio yesterday tho so that's exactly what I did. Actually it's funny, I had just finished rendering a new beat when I took to Twitter and noticed 50 Cent had put up a challenge for producers to lay something down on a freestyle he'd just released. I still had an hour and a bit before I had to head out and play hockey, so I figured I'd take a crack at it. Fif mentioned he wanted something creative, so I decided to lay something down that you wouldn't normally hear 50 on. I threw it up on Thisis50.com and got a good buzz out of it. Probably mainly because many of the beats all sounded the same...you know, your typical 50 Cent beats right? Anyway here's the beat I banged together before heading out yesterday afternoon.

So that's pretty much been it around here...just getting over the flu and back to bangin' out records. I'm still off to Toronto in two weeks for a sit-down with an artist and a photoshoot. I'm definitely meant to be behind the camera tho! hahaha

Oh almost forgot I wanted to give a Shout-Out to my moms as she's heading down to Miami...have a safe trip and have a good time! Well not much else going on around here... just business as usual. Actually wait that's not true! I just found out on Friday that my homie 'V' is coming home in a week. The news couldn't be better and I'm stoked to Celebrate! Hope y'all are doing well and if you know anyone in the music game looking for music, get at my representative and let's get it poppin'!

New York City

Wuddup Gang!?

    I'm sorry I've been away from the blog for a minute but I'm back now so pay attention. Before I get started, I just wanted to ask, "don't you find that February is a hard month to grind in?" I mean straight up, I found it very difficult getting anything accomplished with regards to beat-making. Although I did get a lot done on other fronts, I just found that I lacked motivation to make any music whatsoever. I'm not saying I didn't make ANYTHING but I just found it really hard getting inspired and driven to create. However, I found myself cured last week. See I just recently spent the last week in New York City for the first time and let me tell you something...It is my favourite place on Earth. I was staying in Midtown Manhattan, the Waldorf Astoria and the W to be precise and there is so much history that I was immediately overwhelmed with the sensation to bang out some music. There are just so many cool spots and fascinating stories that you can't help but feel creative. For example, something as small as going to John Lennon's old apartment in the Upper West-Side inspired me for I knew that I was standing in the same spot as a musical legend.

 Furthermore, I found doing anything in New York whether it was finding a small restaurant with famous guests pictures on the wall or simply walking the streets inspired me to do better and work harder. 

So essentially that's what it is... I left for New York as a getaway, hoping for inspiration and ended up having the best week of my life. I added a new page at the top of the blog for my appearances and tour spots so I'll try my best in keeping that updated. I figure I'm going to start with only putting a few future spots in there for now and see if I can keep up from there. It's more to give everyone an idea on what's going on inside my head in regards to upcoming important dates that will be significantly affecting my music career. Anyway, I should get back to some of this music but I just wanted to let y'all know what was good with me.

P.S. If you haven't been to the Big Apple...Go!...NOW!
