I have had the pleasure of performing at Saturday Night Pheature a few times and its a great experience. I had one of my breakthrough moments at Pheature. Phenomenal 1 (P1) has a great vision and consistently supports Chicago talent from all walks. Come AUGUST 28th at The Music Lounge.
The momentum is building. Dj456 out of the UK has just released a mixtape called "Represent No Question" including the song "Nature" featuring (me) Precise produced by UK producer Risk Beats. Its a great song speaking to the power nature has over us and how all of us should just breathe and become one with the power that is in all of us.

The blessings of God are real and true and present themselves to us everyday. My life is changing right now and I see this clearly. Knowing that I have the ability to do any task I set my mind to do with ease and comfort gives me the fuel to continue. Our connection to God makes anything possible. Words activate the connection…the right words activate the connection.

A few weeks ago a friend of mine who works at a Chicago Public School played my song "It's On Me" for her students. She asked for them to explain what they got from the song. Their responses are listed below. The students really enjoyed hearing your song. I was shocked at some the responses that I received.
1. No matter what I come across its up to me to overcome.
2. I cant blame anything on anyone else its all up to me.
3. I cant blame my mother for me not doing well in school.
4. When we go outside its up to us to change. We are killing each other. We cant blame anyone but ourselves.
5. When I wait til the last minute to do my work and I dont get the grade I should I cant blame anyone but myself.
6. We cant blame anyone for our struggle or situation. We are the only ones that can make it better. Things will never be fixed waiting on someone else "It's on me"
7. I need a plan because my future depends on me.
8. We cant blame our parents or the generation before us for what we are living through. We have to gain control of our own destiny. My future is on me.
9. Everything I go through is because my parents are messed up. This song gives me hope that someone out there cares. If everyone have this attitude then maybe life wouldn't be so bad.
I am truly humbled by this. You never know who is listening and what type of message they get from the music. This is encouraging. We can make a difference.
I am connected to an unlimited source of abundance...I truly believe that and the more I say it the more it becomes true. We got POWER yall.
The Help for Haiti held at The Living Room on May 1st presented by i2believe was a great success. Hatian American Tirf Alexius, Hugh Grady, Lorian Toth and Joe Jones went to Haiti to document and to aid and assist in the Rebuilding of Haiti. I was honored to be asked to perform at this event. We still have more to do REBATTIE HAITI...REBUILD HAITI. See some of the footage from their trip below...
I am enjoying every minute of the journey. On May 3rd, myself, P1,Lid Law,3tre,Khari Lemuel,Yaw,Mikkey Halsted,Liz Toussaint, Omen and Crucial Conflict performed at The Fiesta Movement @Reggies Rock Club in Chicago for "Talent Everywhere We GO!" Hosted by Derek "Pretty Boy" Dow a film maker and an actor for LAAP NATION and Chris Adams music video director and film director for Impakt Studio. Sponsored by Ford Motor Company.
Chicago music was deep and well represented. As many of you may know $500.00 was on the line. I did make it to the Final 4 out of 12 contestants (as pointed out by my dear friend Sandria "The SoChiLite")however P1 took home the crown. He gave a great performance and people responded.
You can check out my performance below... Thanks to Lady O who actually stayed we got some footage...THANK YOU LADY O!!!!
On May 8th I did the 2nd Annual Mothers Day Affair at The Sherman Field House in Englewood. The event was hosted by F.A.C.E Planners and Perennial Entertainment. It was a fundraiser for a battered womens shelter known as Clara's House.
As of late I have made a real effort to be where I am...that is to say be in the moment. The performance at The Mothers Day Affair was a special one for me because I felt my soul being filled. Filled to a point were my spirit was overwhelmed. I could not control it.
All I remember is me and J.Hill hitting the stage doing our songs and right after my song was done the band just kept jamming. I could feel all the joy well up in my body, I started dancing and vibing I felt so FREE. When I finally walked off stage I was crying. I cant even explain why, the tears just came.
A close friend of mine said it was because there is a great blessing coming...and YOU KNOW I RECEIVE THAT...GOD IS GREAT!

I got an inspiration from a close friend to work on a Vision board a few weeks ago. It seemed like a good time to do this because I have been planning to do one for a while now. The time felt right. So I was given a poster-board and I went out a purchased another one cause I have a BIG VISION...lol..and Im going to get two more poster-boards...HA HA!!
I got a few magazines and went to work.>>>>>>> FAST FORWARD
A few days ago...I won a competition called "The Track Off" check the previous blog. It was such an awesome victory, not only because I won but because it helped me to see that people are truly supporting me and I appreciate it a great deal.
The prize for the winner of The Track Off was a mention in the RedEye Newspaper.
I get a call from a friend of mine early Thursday morning trying to tell me something but the connection was so bad that they decided to text me. I get the text and its says "Saw U In The Red Eye!!" I immediately jump out of bed hop in the car and go to the nearest place that had the paper. I grabbed a handful. As soon as I got to the car I frantically flipped through the pages just to see my picture posted PROMINENTLY on page 35. I was overwhelmed. As exciting as it was to win it was even more exciting to see Precise in the paper.
I have never met Kyra Kyles outside of twitter and we never even discussed the song, however the way she described it was perfect and is exactly what and how I wished to convey the message of the song "It's On Me"
And I Quote....
It's On Me Precise
"Armed with an arresting instrumental and a strong message about community responsibility, Precise earned a decisive track-off victory in the rap leg of the competition. "Its On Me", avoids being preachy, while offering street intel and advice through clever analogies and a crafty call and response approach. Precise flows in perfect cadence over an instrumental that sounds like it traveled here from the 90's and you'll be glad you made the trip." Kyra Kyles RedEye
...and then.....I get a twit saying that I was mentioned on WGN news...Channel 9 in Chicago..... see it @about 1:20 mark
WOW!!!!!...The most amazing part of this is that I did not send in a photo for the paper or television it was chosen and the greatest part of that is that it was the picture I posted to my Vision Board just a few weeks before..
My Vision Board..well... one of them
The Power Of Intention is REAL...and this is only the beginning. We truly are connected to an unlimited source of abundance. We have to feed ourselves positive words and know and believe them. GOD IS GREAT.
I was so excited I had to wait a few days to write this blog...HA HA...I WAS ON 10 and I still am...kinda. This is only the beginning and I am so happy and grateful that all of you are making this journey with me.
I have a few shows coming up this month and continue to meet new and interesting people. Everybody is showing up at the right time and place and I do not take it for granted.
A Shower of Blessings rain down on all of us consistently. Take some time out and go singing in the rain...well at least run through the sprinkler.
I believe MY GOOD is HERE NOW!!!...Everything is possible when we believe.
