MY ANGER VIBE FOR
THE WEEK..... It's a shame how you make friends so fast when people see good
vibes walking towards you. There have been some people that I've tried to work
w/ and they've just ignored me like I'm nothing. But now since I've gotten the
good vibes from different places, here they come running. Why can't we help
eachother while we're crawling and run with eachother while we're up. That is
MY ANGER VIBE FOR THE WEEK..................I'll see you next
wk.

March 12th- 'da
Funk of Brotha'Hood did a show w/ Average White Band in Oct. 2002. While
performing they caught the eye of AWB's engineer Phil Pagano (Phil has done
studio work w/ Modonna, Whitney Houston, Jimi Hendrix remix, Robert Plant remix
and the list goes on.) 'da Funk caught the eye/ear of this Professional
Producer/Engineer and will be on their way to Staten Island, NY in June to hold
the privilege of share the studio w/ Phil. While 'daFunkface has communtcated
w/ Phil, interest from Record Labels, Managers/Promoters, etc has been falling
like rain. While in the studio, 'da Funk will be sharing the studio w/ past
artist they've shared the stage with- B-E from Nappy Roots just to name one.
('daFunkface doesn't want to give it all away.) 'daFunkface will have something
else to tell you too........................... stay tuned and I'll keep you
informed.

It has happened. 'da Funk of Brotha'Hood is finally where 'daFunkface has
always wanted them. Now all the music that 'daFunkface writes for 'da Funk of
Brotha'Hood is performed on the stage- in the studio the way 'daFunkface feels
it. 'da Funk is full of SOUL now w/ Big Bace Steve on the bass, Cuddy on the
Keys, and Sista' Cree on the drums. It feels good to see and all Black band
letting a hardcore style be part of there genre of music. And the topics that
we rap and sing about, it comes from the Heart of 'daFunkface's artist because
you know they feel it and have experienced it in life. That's why 'daFunkface
hears more feeling in the 'da Funk of Brotha'Hood. To all the Funk Family who
haven't seen these cat's yet, Let me tell you
something.....................stay tuned and watch the dates. 'daFunkface will
keep you informed.

We have finally finished the mix. We have spent some time getting this right
and it is the best recording 'da Funk has ever done live. You can go to the
Preview MP3 and check out the new recording. "saxx" showed his butt in the
recording. He really held his end well. Let 'daFunkface know what you think
about the MP3 recordings.............Stay tuned.

March 8th.......
'daFunkface spent 19hrs doing my vocals, guitar overdubs, solo's, and mixing
today. We went thru 3 songs and it was tiring. I wanted to go to sleep but I
knew that I had some work to do. Soul was there putting down some tracks. He
did a great job on his vocals and I loved his snoring while we were mixing. We
tried to get it on the tracks but he woke up. P did a good job on her tracks.
We had great hospitality by Ronnie Baby (Engineer) and his wife. They treated
us like we were family. That's what helped the overdub session go
well..................I had this one track that I....................Stay
tuned, I'll tell you Later.

March 7th......
'daFunkface spent 14hrs w/ the starting of the overdubs. It always starts out
great. I think I could have done my parts better, but time was more important.
I received word that we have another label interested in us. I wish the world
could feel feel how it feels to know that people are interested in your
personal doings. It was great. I was needing to get home to get in contact w/
them but I had to get this recording finished. The Label that I'm talking about
is........... Make sure you keep in touch. Same Funk time, same Funk
channel.

March 1st.....
This was a Nasty day that made 'daFunkface want to cry. We had a one day studio
session that took us 5hrs to do 5 songs w/ breaks in between. The music sounds
so good that I just want to cry. I'm had these new artist for about 3-4 wks and
they did such a great job. Cree- (Female drummer) has a foot on her that won't
stop. She held the pocket great. Big Steve- (Bassist) adds so much soul to my
music, it ain't funny. Brotha' Cuddy laid on the keys giving that church vibe.
He vibes from it. They all did a great job. AWESOME musicians. They're making
'daFunkface have to stand up to the plate. It's the best 'da Brotha'Hood has
ever sounded. I can't wait to get out there and let the East Coast see what's
going on.
