Otis For @Daisha_Hunter



oh bother, how do I approach this
on some Louis Vuitton or some Coach shit
White Shadow, Dark Shadows Barnabus ghost ship
blood sucker stuck us with this blue ass hostess
no rest for the weary, clearly a hoes gift
sittin on the dock with ofays, sellin my closes
don’t front we all seen the ships comin
only option was, to start runnin or start gunnin
but we ain’t never bared arms
i’m told future holds, 40 acre shared farms
so do the right thing, if Jay can sell a pipe dream
well i could sell a pipe self es-steam
Mario Brothers, warp zone to a future fullah clones
wait, i ain’t EVEN leave yet, I’mah SLAVE still at home

“Clear & Lucid & Natural & Simple.” The Summer’s New Hit ‘e-book’?

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

“Clear & Lucid & Natural & Simple.” The Summer’s New Hit ‘e-book’?

Bronx, N.Y. - Friday (July 22nd, 2011) - It’s summer time in the city of New York and while most every music artist is concerned with putting out a ‘hot’ single to compete with the season’s heat or ‘making some noise’ via an oh so cliche ‘buzz’, one in particular has decided to thread so far left, he’s ends up right. iAreConscious currently in the midst of an ‘indefinite musical hiatus’ releases a free e-book entitled, “Clear & Lucid & Natural & Simple.”.

With a forward written by Bay-area indie Hiphop vet Sum (The Milky Way band front man) that can be heard online from the e-book’s sign up page, (accompanied by an ever growing Facebook Face-pile) it’s apparent that while the content within may be concise and to the point, the method used to promote this work is a bit more elaborate. A little less Zen.

When asked how the idea came about to author this collection of original quotes iAreConscious states, “I was booked as a guest lecturer at NYU recently and realized I had no new product to share with the audience. I needed a calling card. I wanted to introduce them to something other than my music. People still read you know. Never-mind my mother’s been telling me to write a book for years. How could I not listen to my mom?”

“Clear & Lucid & Natural & Simple.” is both a literal and figurative journey of sorts for an artist that remains two steps a head of his audience and four to five steps ahead of his musical peers at all times. Perhaps his break from music with applied focus to writing and sharing ideas in this manner will enhance the power of his tunes whenever he decides to return to recording and performing them. Whatever the case may be, one can not deny the genius of this alternative summer campaign to create awareness. Everyone loves a good “quote”.

Help iAreConscious create "The Zoo"




I'm not big on collaborations and it's not to say that I don't enjoy them, I find great pleasure in creating with others. It's just not always easy to find individuals that are moving musically in similar direction at the same moment enough so that whatever you do end up creating will live up to the potential of both involved.

So I've decided to invite anyone interested in working on something interesting with me to download this instrumental and create something amazing. Something extremely 'different'. Approach it in the most radical way you possibly can.

Create a song over "The Zoo" then send me your version. If I like it and my audience, likes it I will release it officially. (*Create an interesting limited edition tangible product as well as digitally distribute the song. Maybe I'll get sued. And you don't even have to worry about it, because Eklektic Gardens is going to publish it.) I guess you can call it a contest of sorts. The only rule is that you purchase the instrumental. If you do indeed rip the streaming audio your submission will be disqualified.

Good luck!

More details to come about "The Zoo" contest.
