"Y'all don't kno' much 'bout me yet.. Here's a bit about me (musically doh)"

OKay... this one is actually derived from some quotations that were taken from Ar-DuB back in early June of 2009.
We have to post this here too... even though you are more than welcome to view it at it's initial value with graphics included at Ar-DuB's souvenir myspace page (it's simply /Ar-DuB/blog)

Okay.. i got dis.. dat'z how i can be sure it'z brief right ?.. ... and let's focus on da musical aspect since dis iz a music page?? .. ok.. i gotchya
I really don't remember a time when i haven't been involved with music in some way..

let alone many. -- Yeah.. i can remember hearin' angelic voices as a youth.. hearin' the people of churches exercise their gifted talents for inspirational purposes az well . I Also remember havin' da ability to get in tune wit da mass audience and take notice of the tracks that people would enjoy da most even before they discovered them on various albums, etc. (not talkin' my music here.. talkin' 'bout when i wuz jus' a lil' observationalist) .. but dat'z just one thang dat'z been wit me for a while.. i would like for u to kno' more ya kno' ..

So~ uhh.. yeah.. my fam'ly made sure to give me tha opportunity to learn to play music too ..

so i took it up in late elementary.. through middle.. i wuz even able to march in a couple of weekend parades wit my sax and put da helmet and pads on da followin' school days. {How many football players u kno' marched in da same season? hnuh??..hehe}

Similarly.. i wuz able to tune and build up my improv. skillz in jazz band..and leave dat practice in da same days to catch~up to da track workout.

Dat wuz underclassman highschool style though..hehe.. i Eventually did da full-fledge sports..

and i paid for it wit injury piled on injury.. well .. maybe not more than a handful of big ones as an upperclassman, but a couple of 'em kept me on injured reserve for a great part of my senior~season..

Oh yeah.. i literally Wrote my first full verse when i wuz in D.C. on a two-week summa trip as a sophomore ( i say dat 'cause thingz change.. pens have otha uses now) .. and Yes.. i can still remember dat mu'~ka .. dat wuz also my firs' time rappin' at a stage venue ..

da second big time one wuz at da Liberty Theatre in Columbus, GA da followin' year..

i'm pressin' fast-forwrd ok.. ~~~~

yeah.. I did wake up one day in the hospital az a victim of amnesia.. and of a fatal car~accident..

well i'm not rushin' da details on dis 'cause, yes .. it wuz miraculous...yes.. they did use the jaws of life to pry me out of the Back seat of whut wuz left in debris.. and yes.. da effects did linger through tha healing process..

not to be viewed negatively.. any spurt dat i had noticed in my musical or lyrical production prior to the accident wuz not a match for the spurts that followed while my whole being wuz healing (i Still appreciate all da support and prayers.. to say da least right)..

besides dat.. music filled up a window of opportunity for outlet while i wuzn't walkin' .. da sports thang wuz obviously limited when learning to walk again..

i wuz gettin' inspiration from all ova.. even rememberin' how Kanye said to imagine being locked in makin' beats for da summa... hehe.. i tried to see dat bar and raise it..

now... i really could go on here..

but there are other platforms and venues for such..

and yes.. i may be more of an athlete now dan eva (musically &nd literally)

just kno' that i do whut i do for many.. for plenty.. and i keep stridin' da hurdles like i trained for back in highschool.. i keep seein' bars that can be raised.. i see that my growth in music has been applyin' to multiple facets.. so when u Do see me take up a more mainstage destination .. i'll more than likely be involved on different fronts.. for da sake of efficiency perhaps.. hehe..

but yeah.. i'd love for u to stay tuned.. i Can share more ..

Okay... we'll let that be enough quote pull-ins for this one... it's just that this is part of an inspiration behind Ar-DuB that isn't always shared until certain timely specifications permit.. hehe.. aight.. let me get back to what i'm doin'

So it has been mentioned that it has been quite a while since Ar-DuB logged into his souvenir site that includes some important info. on the blogsectionals of that one.
However... we definitely wanna include some of that info. here too... and maybe allow some clarifications to be alluded to elsewhere.

We want to do some follow-up blog-entries that include more information about some of the inspiration that is behind Ar-DuB and the movements that he has become affiliated with (including sponsorships/spawnsorships)

** Here is one of the quotes that we got from Ar-DuB's myspace souvenir site that is about his influences (we'll follow this up soon with a post that includes a bit of history that was also posted to that same source site) :

When asked about some of his influences at the time, Ar-DuB replied with this:
"I’m a fan first.. In da same sense dat it goes God and belief, fam.&friends,, catch da drift o’ thought?? '' .. also, musically & otha wize: ''I’m inspired by most artists and producers in Some form or fashion fa sho’ '' -- i 'preciate da arts of experience & efficiency that allow us to innovate and reevaluate..furtherin' our strides toward future ... --i'm influenced by da funny thangz i see in e'ryday life.. --i am influenced by our thirst and hunger for more"

This is one of the quotes from Ar-DuB that called upon the attention of some of his future team affiliates and allowed him to contribute to and sponsor some quite intriguing article publications.
