Collaboration: Author’s Commentary
I remember when I first thought up the concept of this story, when I was almost through writing Breaking Into The Music Industry, I didn't think the characters of Nelly and T.I. would fit together the way they have ultimately come to. I honestly thought that the story would not attract any readers and I would get slammed for having such an idea to put the St. Lunatic rapper Nelly together with the Atlanta rapper T.I.; I prefer calling him Tip. I told myself that it was worth a shot and to just go for it though because it was ...

Omarion’s Song pt. 5
I woke up and decided to go to class. While I was taking notes in my classes, I could only think about the crazy week I had. First the whole Omarion and Bow Wow situation, meeting Tank and co-writing on a song with him for Chris Brown in the studio, who invited me to an album release party where I met Trey Songz and Lauren London. Do things always happen this fast in the industry? I jokingly thought to myself, “Damn, I might have to quit school.” When classes ended, and the weekend started, I received a call from an unknown ...
The Hunger For More, pt. 10
Everyone go their separate ways, all leading back to the incredibly busy lives. 50 makes sure to talk to the receptionist about booking the studio; she sets it up and everything is ready to go before he leaves the building. He has a few hours to relax before going into the studio tonight so he decides it best to still go and see his little boy. Opportunities like this rarely present themselves to the rapper so he must take full advantage of them when they do come around. The driver hears his plans when he is in the car and ...
