I'm sorry, but this is my blog and this topic is something that keeps popping up [especially with everyone suddenly pursuing their rap careers]. now this is not intended to crush any ones dreams nor am i saying that i do not support my friends who are on the "grind" [keep it up, because hard work never goes unnoticed], but "the studio" is the devil. even though that's where the magic happens and you guys are oh so focused and all.. but it seems to somehow be a problem within the female community. i heard that the hidden (or not so hidden) rule of studio etiquette is "no girls allowed" [whether actually in person or just simply on the brain.. B.S!] i refuse to compete with some damn studio. i use to think that dating an athlete was horrible because of their practice schedules, but at least that was usually at a convenient time. it seems like studio sessions pop up at the most random times ever! sorry if I'm going on a rampage here, but this is a topic that is secretly discussed between us girls on the regular and i can no longer say that I'm ok with not putting it out there for you fellas to get a taste of the other (more evil) side of your precious "the studio". no, we are [i am] not making you choose but we are [i am] rather asking you to allocate your time wisely. balance is key. everything in moderation. what you focus on grows and if you chose to focus on building healthy-lasting relationships then that's what you'll be blessed with. if you choose the other, then have fun trying to "make it" alone. [sounded a little harsh] i guess some guys just have a hard time distinguishing between a "down a** chicks" and a "groupie". because a "down a** chick" would support you in whatever you choose to pursue as long as it helps the relationship and not take away from it. whereas a "groupie" is always going to tell you what you wanna hear. so pick your battles. I'm over it.
[for my local artist, i love you all dearly.. keep doing what you do]
I say you express to your "friend" that the studio is taking up too much of there time and you are starting to feel neglected, ya know. I mean if it continues to go on, I say that you leave that person alone for awhile, like totally ignore them, they will come back around, I'm telling you. But you gotta think about this way, if music is someone's passion, they are going to put there all in their music, and maybe the studio is something you are going to have to put up with.
ReplyDeletei'm not competing with anyone's studio time, I've just always gotten involved in conversations about it.
