Blog neglect and Artistic ADD
So...I've been neglecting my blog a little bit.. granted.
I'm still around..just preparing for a new series of
releases throughout the new year. More info to
come about that later, but let me just say that
I'm working with a very talented group of people
in Atlanta, GA for it and it will not disappoint!
Also, I'm making my own beats now as well so
this should be interesting to say the least...
Anywho..speaking of all things creative..
sometimes I have so many thoughts and ideas that
consume my mental that none of them seem to get
the deserving attentiveness they need in order to
take flight independently. It's classic creative struggle.
My biggest goal for any further songwriting, is simple:
FOLLOW THROUGH
Is there a such thing as artistic ADD? I say yes, and it's
real. DONT be a victim.
Vlogging?
Yours truly is thinking about revamping this here setup!
And coming back as a vlogger..instead of blogger..
Ok I'm not only thinking it...i'm doing it. Each vlog
entry is gonna be posted here on subjects I love
and feel the need to discuss....music reviews or not
really reviews..but rather just cool music i'm loving at
the moment. In addition to my own of course..
oh and also..this site will be cecilimusic.com
so ...stay tuned for the freakstravaganza!

Mark Ronson feat D'Angelo!!!
anything/anyone having to do with D'Angelo is automatically my favorite.
Im so happy to hear some new stuff from one of the most talented singers in the industry.
Now if only we can get a full release from him..please!!
FAITH is REALITY
"If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you."
On Being an Artist..
"being an artist is like being an officer of the highest rank.. granted special rights and privileges yet an even greater responsibility"

This song by Feist is too tooo slick.
I cant get enough.
Good music is such an inspiration.
SHIT HAPPENS
the last 24-48 hours have been a whirlwind of out of left field type occurrences..
I don't smoke. But if i did I would definitely need a cigarette. Since I dont smoke
I just have to deal. Thankfully, I am strong, and know how to roll with things...
The things that have taken place dont need mentioning specifically as I feel
the importance lies in my outlook and actions in regards to them. An inexperienced
traveler through this life might be angry, throwing their hands up, obsessing
over details and idiosyncrasies but I'm smart enough to know when to realize that
if it aint the end of the world and you still have life your body...things just arent that serious.
If you obsess over minor details over which u have no control you're a dumbass.
I WILL PREVAIL.

Time does not exist
Ya’ll gotta watch this. To me it means the prexisting divide between time and space is slowly being reconciled. Right now it’s information, soon it will be people. If we are all still here. Or maybe by then we be psyborgs. Yes I meant “psy” not “cy”
Either way it u gotta start thinking about this stuff. Long gone are the old ways of existing and modeling our lives and selves after traditional ideologies. Shit has officially hit the fan. Go to college, get a degree aint enough ya’ll. think outside the archetypal box is message I’m receiving.

So in addition to writing and recording songs, the gypsy (me) has delved into the fun world of reselling all of my amazing vintage duds. This beautiful African Caftan is one of my unique items for sale. I am apprehensive to sell it, but will feel much better with the thought of it in circulation, on a journey of reinvention in someone else's life. You can find more amazing one of a kind finds at my store:

One of my faves from the Grunge Era
I was and have always been obsessed with 90s alternative...
it has shaped who i am as an artist and individual
yes I love GRUNGE! But it means more than a Nirvana song
every now and then...so I thought about it -and I'm
going to start a mini tribute of all my favorite
music outta this era..cuz it's my absolute favorite for starters-
and why not bring it back? So today it's Silverchair:
Not only is the lead singer super-luscious-fine, they
are pretty dope! Enjoy!
I'm Late but....
Metric is one of my new favorite bands!! I literally love EVERY song I hear by this band...
enjoy:

We all just want to be...
It's times like these when I'm a free agent that I find my thoughts
leaning toward fond images of being filled with a deep love in all
ways for a certain special someone...I almost like that I'm single
more right now because I can appreciate the idea of a love so true
and strong...that much more from my perspective..bc when you're
in it..your view is skewed. So, here I am..full of curiosity, wonder,
and awe at the beauty of the existence of the possibility...or at what
could materialize at any point based on the splendor of my positioning.
I'm a psyborg...
so just musing over a few things today, nothing new...
-u are either with me or i don't have time for you.
-simply loving something is not sufficient for enriching one's existence, BEING that which you claim you so love, IS however.
-like childbirth once you reach a monumental achievement..some hardships are automatically forgotten, thus the importance of journals, blogs, writing goals down...
-no one cares more about my stuff than I do.
-I can do whatever the *@$ I want
-PARIS is my current home.
-What I say manifests.
-I am a psyborg: i possess mental capabilities that enable me to rearrange my physical state, location, scenery, lattitude/longitude, form, species, exoskeletal arrangement, structural integrity of my environment and etc...
