lately...

lately I've been working on some more hip hop styled songs and they are extremely hard to come up with lyrics for! Hip hop music is very beat oriented lyrics wise and so it's hard to get the lyrics to fit the song right while still having the song make sense. For instance, a song about Jesus can't be like...

Life is like a sock monkey
Cannot feed a gray donkey

Not only would that song not make sense, but if I sang it in public I would probably be arrested and taken to a crazy house. I'm considering making a considerable amount of trips to west lafayette to practice some songs with Luke Wahl. I'm figuring any time I'm out there we can practice and anytime he comes to p town we can practice. Then we can go to mister Jeff Huber's pad to record and mix and all the good stuff like that. Can't wait to get a demo out. I have a feeling it is going to be incredible :)
