Enough with my mentals, let's get to this music! The big homies 8Ball & MJG have blessed THE TEXAS RENAISSANCE on the heartfelt joint "What Goes Up" which is a remake of the classic done by Frankie Beverly & Maze. We were accompanied by the vocal stylings of my good friend Adrian B. (formerly known as Gemini) who is actually featured on the album twice. Personally, "What Goes Up" is my favorite song on the project because it is definitely the most honest. The song & the concept sheds light on the truth behind the fame associated with the entertainment industry from the relationship side of

Features aside, THE TEXAS RENAISSANCE is said to have all the makings of a classic- good concepts, great production & honest words. I don't know if there are high expectations for the project or not but I can say without hesitation that I did my thing. For the first time in my career I entered the booth without feeling like I had anything to prove & I think the end result shows the fun I had creating freely again. With that said, for all the people who have been keeping up with my career I can tell you it's not going to be the verbal onslaught you've come to know me for for. Lyrically bar for bar this is probably the weakest performance of my life but song for song it's the best. I think the best way I can explain it is to say on my older stuff it was artist friendly- I was a rapper's rapper. THE TEXAS RENAISSANCE is more people friendly, straight forward & direct with nothing wittingly going over the average person's head. I guess the funny part is by not trying to prove that I am one of the best I have successfully shown that I am one of the best s far as Texas is concerned. I am proud of this project & I am grateful to my team. When it's all said & done, I give the glory to God & present the music to you without a worry. There is no critic or skeptic that can belittle this masterful piece of work because this work is me & I'm more comfortable with me than ever before. So does THE TEXAS RENAISSANCE really have the makings of classic....you'll just have to wait & be the judge of that yourself.
