the grind never stops

The producer for my album, Amos Miller called me to say he is at the studio making me show cd's for my Only love project...I am so happy because I will finally be able to do shows without the band. I love having a band but I can do way more shows off cd while I find better paid gigs for my musicians.

I have a tour opportunity that I am waiting to hear back from shamako of hip hop congress about...it's supposed to be late May to early June. perfect.

I am updating all the various pages I have...myspace,facebook, soul commune, black planet, twitter, and blog spot. I am starting to get the hang of it but I still don't blog like I should.

If people would submit questions I would be more inspired.

Stressful day...

I have been having a very stressful day but I am hopeful...Prayer and perspective have a way of changing things significantly.

Late night, early morning

In The music Biz the days are long, the nights are even longer and the freaking day come right back around before you can get a chance to hit the pillow.
I have been grinding hard since before the release of Only Love.
It's 2am and some change and I am just getting in from an eventful day. I ate a 4 party wings and a yougurt for dinner a few minutes ago which is probably horrible to be eating so late.
My eating habits hare improved in terms of what I am eating but the when...That is one place that begs attention.
I have to get p early nce again to do my workout, meet some relatives for lunch at 11am then do grocery list of other things throught the day, including blog, twitter, and making business calls to book gigs.
I am in serious need of management. Oh and I forgot I have to finish the cirriculum I am writing with Jen Johnson of Seattle debate foundation that is getting published. I also need to do someonline banking and bill paying...Oh and my mornings will have to start earlier next week because I have to start rehearsing, finding a band to gig with and add more onto my workout.
I am not complaining...I guess I am just letting off stress.
I want to be my personal best, that requires alot...so "I gotta go hard, or go home!" as they say in the streets.

My new video "Rose" is on youtube

OMG!!!! I can't believe it is finally done....my first music video off my album Only Love has its first music video called "Rose". the video is available via www.youtube.com/misstonihill
I posted it on myspace and put a update to go watch it on face book...I am super excited to see what type of reaction/response I get from it.
So far 18 people have watched it...and the vibrartion that I am feeling inside is crazy!!! the energy is bouncing off the walls.
Yaay! Fuzzy!

unidentified creatures...lol

So I am talking on the phone to my mom while I walk through the neighborhood to the nearby football feild that has a track when I come across somethink slinking in the grass. It was brown and furry so my first instinct was maybe its a cat. I slowed my pace down so I could study its behavior for a minute. It was crouched low then rolled to one side in the sun. I still wasn't convienced it was a cat so I inched a lil closer to see if it was a racoon but that alarmed me so i decided than when in doubt just throw something! so I picked up a stick and tossed it within 10 ft of the creature. It dashed off towards the wooded area that is right by the fence that I need to pass to get to the track...umm yikes!!!
I looked for cat ears or racoon markings but it had neither...so I asked my mother what it could possible be. we collectively came up with a beaver. bUt I wasn't certain so I walked to the other end of the park and climed the fence to get to the track, all the while talking to my mom on the phone and explaining how when I lived in Puerto rico I saw some other unidentified creature. It resembled a squirrel, rabbit and mouse mixed togethor...lol some kinda hybrid creature sort of like a chinchilla.
My mom laughed at me because I jumped the fence...I said" all those dance classes and being a tomboy and athlete all my life has to pay off somekinda way!" she was so amused.
so fast forward to my workout: Its a absolutely gorgeous day. sun shinning, birds singing, children playing n the field...then dun dun dun...I notice the slinking character from the corner of my eye. My spidey senses tell me to go see what it is...my horror movie senses tell me to run! Lol
So I did a combo, I ran the fence that seperated the track from the feild that was about 25 yards from the creature. It stood up and its mouth was moving really fast like a hamster and it had small paws in front and I could linda make out the flat tail...It was a beaver. But I had to be sure so I called my life line. I called home to ask my cousin Tee if there were any Beavers in our neighborhood. She said Yes. and that she tried to tell her husband but he didn't believe her.
So the mystery creature is solved. Now If I could just find Shaggy and Scooby for a sandwhich...I am starving...salad is not doing it for me.

Rainah and the dancers...

So I haven't been blooging in a while. My Only Love album release parties are finished and were awesome. Now I am back in the east coast at my new residence with My counsin Tee, the artist Rainah and rainah's dancers. They spent the past two weekends over working on her video "loose". I am supoer excited to be around such talented people with such positive energy.
Rainah and I have been working out and eating right...its so hard when the dancers are eating cookies, cake, chips, pizza and everything else in the world woth a billion calories!!!!

One of the dancers has been giving me the back ground on Battle fest and showing me clips of his dancing friends. I was blown away!
We are dancing in the kitchen now...it is too funny!!!!
