Mods forgive me for not knowing where to properly place this post... Ive been a member of this site since BB1 aired. So that makes me a TVCH veteran! I just wanted you all to know that when I signed up for this site I was a college student. For the last 5 years I have been working my way up the ladder in the music biz... I now find myself with my own company LuckyBug Entertainment and am about tolaunch the career of my first artist. I discovered the talent of a 16 year old rapper. I have put my life into this project and am very excited for the launch. I know many of you are probably not the biggest hip hop fans but I wanted to share with you. Next week is our official launch. His name is METAFORE and he is in NYC working with the best producers in hip hop. He is being considered the soundtrack of a new Chris Rock movie and there is much more to come. Please check out www.TeamMetafore.com and keep checking back for updates. I just thought I would let you TVCHers know what is up and who is going to be one of the next big things...before everyone else finds out. You can also keep updated my checking my myspace at www.myspace.com/luckybugentertainment or sign up to be on Team Metafore at www.myspace.com/TeamMetafore .... Official launch next week.

Ladybug, I thought about it and started to keep my fingers quiet because I don't know if you are wanting feedback and, if not, I really didn't want to rain on your parade. However, as the mother of an 11-yr-old who does like hip hop, I feel I would be remiss as a parent if I didn't respond. I listened to the songs on the websites and these type of lyrics are the reason my son is not allowed to listen to hip hop (I know not all hip hop contains this kind of language but they are the exception instead of the rule) and if these particular songs or ones similar to them are used in the movie, we will not be seeing it. I have a problem with adults speaking this way, let alone a kid (and, at 17, he is a kid). Just ask the ones in my neighborhood who try to get away with it or the people who drive by my home with this kind of music blaring out of their cars. I'm deeply sorry if I have offended you, but, as a parent, I felt I should respond.

Native I appreciate you posting. <nd> I don't appreciate anybody - but kids especially - using that language.

Congrats on your launch! I have to agree tho - I don't allow a lot of hip hop at the Y even though it's prob. the most popular because I don't think it's appropriate for them to hear swearing. It's hard to find ok music for the kids but I do. . .I know that not all music/media is geared towards kids but it sure would be nice if there was more kid friendly stuff for them to use as role models

Thanks for your comments, praises and other feedback. I can honestly tell you that I agree with some of the negative material and hip hop isnt my favorite genre but it is my job This is his mixtape... his album which is very radio friendly is still being recorded..anywho..I let him write what he writes and I just make his dream come true (fingers crossed) ...so as I say to my dad (constantly) its his expression, they are his words, he is 17 and its the life he lives..He is an artist in his own right and Im not going to create an image that isnt him..BUT I do put my two cents in and get laughed at..haha ... Thanks again..and BUTTERCUP..I'll take the masarati spider convertible....gimmie 6 months!! I will keep you posted!
