The End Is Near Is Here!!!

Ohhhh, FINALLY

The day we've all been waiting for

The day that we get to have my labor of love and on Santa Claus Day of all days (Listen to the E.P. it will explain everything). 

Initially, I set out to make a full-length album called "Decline", which I've been consciously working on since 2011, but a few months ago, I started to feel like I needed to put something out to get the process going. And this is it.

The first song, "The End Is Near" is a journey into the current zeitgeist in America.

From Mike Brown and Eric Garner, to global warming. This track kinda sets the tone for the whole record

The second song "Santa Claus Died A Long Time Ago & Mrs. Claus IS Turnin' Tricks", is on the surface kind of dark, morbid Christmas song, but underneath that, it's a critique of how American capitalism

The third song "Stigmata" was a song I wrote for "Decline". In all honesty, it's just a brutal look into America's violent culture and how it shapes us as a people

And lastly, we have "In America" a song written from my perception as a jaded, disaffected spectator with the counterargument coming from foreigners who come from all over the world to taste the freedoms that maybe we take for granted.

I genuinely hope that people enjoy this taste of what I do. I'm kind of an MC. I'm kind of a producer. I'm really no engineer or mixer (really), but I have love for music and this record is the best I could do right now.

And hey, it's free, so what do you have to lose, right?

Santa Claus Died A Long Time Ago & Mrs. Claus Is Turnin' Tricks

Yup, you read that title correctly. I wrote a Christmas song about how jolly old St. Nick has left us after a long fight with the rich capitalists, angry that his "socialist" gift giving policy has cut into their annual Christmas gouging, leaving his dear wife to fend for herself and peddle her wears on the cold, dark, and unforgiving streets of my hometown, Gary, Indiana.

This aint your parents Santa Claus, unless your parents were Mario Van Peeples and/or Iceberg Slim, which seems like it would be pretty cool.

Santa Claus loved all children

Whether you were poor or rich

And so his elves made toys for girls and boys

And sewed every doll stitch by stitch

Santa Claus loved all children

Whether you were Black or White

And so he jumped on his sleigh and was on his way

To deliver those toys all night

But Santa Claus was bad for business

He didn't make the children pay

So, the capitalists said giving away free toys

Was a threat to the American way

So the rich called Santa Claus a socialist

And labeled him an enemy of state.

All their TV stations started running him down

And they called him a purveyor of hate.

That's why

Santa Claus died a long time ago

And Mrs. Claus is turning those tricks

On the streets of G.I.

Trying to make that money

For Rudolph The Red Nosed Pimp

Santa Claus died a long time ago

And Mrs. Claus is turning those tricks

On the streets of G.I.

Trying to make that money

For Rudolph The Red Nosed Pimp

Santa Claus loved all children

Whether they were Muslim or Jew

All the Christians, Hindus, Buddhists, Agnostics,

And even all the atheists too.

Santa Claus loved all children

Whether they were gay or straight

So old Fred Phelps and his family clan

Told him hell was his ultimate fate.

So the rich labeled Santa Claus a pedophile

Got him banned from the USA

On their radio stations they're running him down

All because he just would not play

So Santa Claus called up the president

And tried to get the story straight

And old Obama from Goldman Sachs

Told him he was gonna have to pay

That's why

Santa Claus died a long time ago

And Mrs. Claus is turning those tricks

On the streets of G.I.

Trying to make that money

For Rudolph The Red Nosed Pimp

Santa Claus died a long time ago

And Mrs. Claus is turning those tricks

On the streets of G.I.

Trying to make that money

For Rudolph The Red Nosed Pimp

Santa Claus loved all children

So he decided it was time to fight back

So he went on his blog to defend himself

From the mainstream media attacks

Santa Claus loved all children

So he exposed with the companies do

Poison water and air

Spread smoke everywhere

While the government conceals the truth

So the rich called Santa Claus a terrorist

And put a bounty on his head

All their troops marched upward to the North Pole

To drag him out alive or dead

But Santa Claus hid in his bunker

And now he was trapped inside

Put the gun in his mouth

As the troops stormed in

And told his loving wife good bye

That's how

Santa Claus died a long time ago

And Mrs. Claus is turning those tricks

On the streets of G.I.

Trying to make that money

For Rudolph The Red Nosed Pimp

Artwork for "The End Is Near" E.P.

I've finally settled on the artwork for "The End Is Near" E.P. coming out in a few days.

New Track: "Dear Christian"

This is a track I dedicated to a kid from my hometown of Gary, Indiana named Christian Choate. One day I picked up the Gary Post-Tribune and saw this innocent kid with a face like Kurt Cobain's staring at me, compelling me to read his story. I opened the newspaper and I was completely floored by hearing about this kid who had been beaten, starved and eventually murdered by his own family, and then discarded like garbage in their backyard. I mean, personally, I'm from Gary, Indiana, one of the most violent cities in America, and former "Murder Capital" of this great land, so I'm used to hearing and knowing about death and how it affects young people, but this really for lack of a better term, "fucked with me". This wasn't gangbanging or drugs, not that those things are cool or that the people who die from those things aren't valuable, but it just seems like this is an even more cruel and injust death, because it was at the hands of the people who were supposed to be protecting him. All I can do is hope this song keeps his memory alive. Rest in Peace, Christian Choate (1995-2009)

New Track: "Stigmata"

I mean, this song & video is NOT for the weak-stomached or hearted. It's just some ol' school hardcore Hip-Hop, but with a political and social edge to it. The video is just the carnage that Americans do to each other and celebrate in movies, TV, and song. For me, this song is basically spitting our violent American culture back into the faces of the people who enable it, YOU.
