The FlyWheel 5 Ride challenge: I already look better naked...and now my friends will, too!

The FlyWheel 5 Ride challenge: I already look better naked...and now my friends will, too!
I am currently working on a new album that I plan to release this summer. That means I have to get off of my hedonistic ass and exercise so that I can be in tip-top shape for shows, videos, and other half-naked summertime foolishness. Poor me. A few days ago  I wrote about FlyWheel, the... Read more »

Will I look better naked after taking The FlyWheel 5 Ride Challenge?

I hate working out. Exercise hurts and breaking a sweat is only fun when you’re doing it under naughty circumstances. However, summer is right around the corner, and the way that I like to dress on & off the stage sort of requires that I be in decent shape. Candy Morales is a personal trainer... Read more »

Why I Don't Give a Damn About the KONY 2012 Criticism, and Why You Shouldn't Either

Why I Don't Give a Damn About the KONY 2012 Criticism, and Why You Shouldn't Either
I’m not a political figure. Hell, I don’t even own an Obama “Yes We Can” t-shirt. All I am is an indie recording artist who tries to help make a difference in the world in any way that I can. That is why I support the KONY 2012 campaign. Today, I am writing about a... Read more »

I hate Todd the Vegan: Why "Scott Pilgrim" made me avoid telling people I don't eat meat

I hate Todd the Vegan: Why "Scott Pilgrim" made me avoid telling people I don't eat meat
I am a vegan. It is something that I avoid telling people at all costs. Whenever I go out to eat with friends I quietly scan the menu for dishes I can eat without making a fuss about it, but no matter how much I try to blend in I always have at least one... Read more »

The Young Businesswoman & The "B" Word: Why girls like me catch hell for not playing nice

The Young Businesswoman & The "B" Word: Why girls like me catch hell for not playing nice
I am not nice. When I’m handling my business affairs I am considerate, fair, and respectful of others, but I never want to be associated with the word “nice.” In my line of work (the music biz,) “nice” girls who are tame, don’t set boundaries, and let people walk over them get the shaft, and...

What indie artists can learn from REALLY bad gigs: 5 mistakes I've made that you can avoid

What indie artists can learn from REALLY bad gigs: 5 mistakes I've made that you can avoid
Being an independent artist is a weird job. I’m not rich & famous, but I’m well known & comfortable. I am not a “major” act who has a label’s backing, but I’m not “underground” either, I get major press and do business with companies like Viacom and Hasbro (I recently did the theme song for...

Screw Black Friday Shopping: Affordable Christmas gifts are just a click away

Screw Black Friday Shopping: Affordable Christmas gifts are just a click away
To me, going shopping any time after Thanksgiving is a nightmare, Black Friday being the worst. It is bad enough that we have to fight our way through toy stores in a desperate attempt to find the perfect gifts for the kids we love, but when shopping for the young women in our lives we...

I'M SHRINKING! How I lost 10 pounds in 3 weeks...by accident.

I'M SHRINKING! How I lost 10 pounds in 3 weeks...by accident.
My life is nuts. As an independent singer/rapper/producer, I work for myself; I create music to license to tv networks, I do voice-overs on commercials, and I’m recording music for my album projects. When I have to go on the road for performances, it is sooo hard to maintain a healthy diet because I always... Read more »
