Tuesday, November 29th, 2011THE HUNDREDS presents SOME DREAMS NEVER SLEEP [EP]
Tuesday, October 4th, 2011If yall only knew what it took to get to this point. Alot of sleepless nights, missed flights, and food fights. LOL This is all a dream come true man. What started as my idea has become our reality. And I’m only getting warmed up. There we’re times where I questioned if this music shit is really gonna work out, but I look at the people that depend on me and want to see me “do it”….and remind myself, that there’s no turning back.
Next thing you know one of my favorite brands reaches out to work with me, then I’m sitting in a studio with Sha Money and NO I.D., BET invites me to the awards, I’m in Atlanta rhyming for Swizz Beatz, then DMX pulls me aside to give me some of the realest advice. How do I not keep pushing?
Being an independent artist has its ups and downs, but the beauty of it is your connection the people. This is who I make this music for. I met a kid named Nick last night at my show, that said he recently moved to NYC from Kentucky because my music inspired him to pursue his dreams. I met a girl in the airport last week who said my songs got her thru a rough break up. And I get people all the time telling me how hard “Reflections” hits home. The list goes on, but at the end of the day its just reminder of the impact words can have on a person’s life. I’m grateful for the opportunity to be heard.
I throw the word “dreams” around alot because its whats drive us in our day-to-day. They motivate us and enlighten us to the possibilities and realities of life. Don’t ever let anyone tell you you can’t do something. If you can think it, you can do it.

This the record that kicked it all for me, my first music video (see below), my first buzz record, and still one of my favorite records to perform. With this EP and things coming full circle, I reached to the homey Ash and OG Bun.
And Raak flipped the beat something disgusting.
Some Dreams Never Sleep EP drops next Tuesday. Let’s go!

Some Dreams Never Sleep EP (Trailer)
Tuesday, September 13th, 2011
It’s funny how things work out.
Around this time last year, I was just coming off the release off my debut 87 Dreams and entering a whole new chapter of my life. This music has put me in the presence of great company, people I’ve dreamed of working with. Finding out they are fans of my shit too is even iller.
This year is no different, but the music is. The 87 Dreams 2 Reality project that I’ve been tweeting about the last couple months has taken on a new form. And via God’s grace, I’ve recently met and talked to some very important people that think it deserves a bigger platform. With that said, I’ve gotta push that release back for now.
I’m not gone leave yall hangin though. I’m releasing Some Dreams Never Sleep on September 27th.
It’s an 8-song EP featuring some of the faces you’re gonna see in the trailer below.
I can’t wait for yall to hear this shit.
Dreams do come true.

Gilbere Forte’ feat. Tyga & Raak – Burn Me Down (Video)
Wednesday, July 20th, 2011Gilbere Forte’ feat. Tyga – Burn Me Down
Monday, July 11th, 2011
It’s been a long journey. From releasing my first remixes and freestyles just two years ago to now stepping into the next chapter of my career…and life. This “Burn Me Down” record is more than just a new song featuring a crazy verse from the homey Tyga. Its the realization that this music shit is meant to be. Everything that has happened up to this point has happened for a reason. The people I’ve met throughout my life, the places I’ve been, and the things that i’ve beared witness….have all led up to this. It was all preparation for what I feel is about to happen.
Back to the record.
Those of you rocking with me since the beginning are already familiar with the original “Burn Me Down” off 87 Dreams. It was ALOT of people’s favorite song after the first listen of the project. So I felt it’s only right I give it new life (w/all new verses) as the introduction to my next solo project entitled 87 Dreams To Reality.
What is that you ask? Its what happens when you take a dream and make it your reality.
