WHAT I HOPE TO ACCOMPLISH



I HOPE TO ACCOMPLISH ALOT OF THINGS IN MY LIFE BUT I UNDERSTAND THAT HARD WORK IS ONE OF THEM AND BEING TRUE AND GENUINE TO MYSELF IS THE OTHER.. I BELEIVE THAT IF YOU CAN STAY TRUE TO YOURSELF AND HAVE GOOD CONCEPTS ABOUT MUSIC AND A GREAT MIND TO STEER OUT OF BAD SITUATIONS YOU CAN GO FAR, AND THAT IS TRUELY THE TYPE OF ARTIST I AM.. BUT I WOULD LIKE TO BECOME A SUCCESSFULL CEO OF MY OWN LABEL SOMEDAY AND CARRY ON THE LEGACY OF HIP HOP INTO THE NEXT GENERATION AND SO ON.. I ALSO WOULD LIKE TO BRING SOME GOOD TO A CITY WHERE EVERYBODY LOOKS DOWN US AS BEING NOTHING AND USELESS.. I WOULD LIKE TO OPEN UP DOORS FOR OTHER MC'S AND EARS AND HEARTS OF ANY AND EVERY PERSON WILLING TO LISTEN..BUT EVERYTHING I JUST STATED COMES WITH TIME, HARD WORK, AND PERSEVERANCE. SO I KEEP THAT IN MIND WHEN I MAKE MY MUSIC, I TAKE MY TIME AND MAKE GREAT MUSIC, I AM ON TIME WITH SHOW TIMES, AND ANYTHING INVOLVED WITH THE BUSINESS. SO IT IS JUST TIME FOR ME TO PROVE IT. ACTIONS SPEAK LOUDER THAN WORDS.


SUMMARY OF ARTIST




ME PERSONALLY I AM HUMBLE, SILENT, AND HARD WORKING.. MORE OF A BLUE COLLAR WORKER TYPE ARTIST.. I BELIEVE IN GETTING THE JOB DONE, AND NOT STOPPING UNTIL IT IS FINISHED.. I DO NOT PLAY WHEN IT COMES TO STUDIO TIME AND I AM VERY SELF DRIVEN WITHOUT ANY HELP FROM ANYONE ELSE.. ANYONE CAN MAKE MUSIC AND IT TAKES A SPECIAL PERSON/ARTIST TO BE SELF DRIVEN AND SELF MOTIVATED.. I AM NOT A FAN OF THE DRUG SCENE, I AM ALSO FOCUSED ON MAKING GOOD MUSIC TO PUT ME AND MY FRIENDS AND FAMILY IN A BETTER SITUATION TO SURVIVE IN.. I LOVE TOURING AS WELL, DOING SHOWS AND PERFOMANCES REALLY EXCITE ME BECAUSE I BECOME ANOTHER PERSON.. AND FINALLY, I ALSO PLAN TO MAKE IT RAPPING FOR MY MOTHER, SHE IS MY BIGGEST INSPIRATION AND I HATE TO SEE HER STRUGGLE FOR THINGS I SHOULD BE ABLE TO PROVIDE FOR HER.. AND LAST BUT NOT LEAST, MY CITY... I PLAN TO RESTORE SOME GOOD COMMONWEALTH TO THE CITY OF CAHOKIA AND PUT EAST SAINT LOUIS ON THE FOREFRONT AS A MAJOR CITY WITH TALENT WHO CAN STAND ON OUR OWN..BUT WITH THAT SAID THE PROOF IS IN THE PUDDING, ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS LISTEN TO THE MUSIC, THE MUSIC SPEAKS FOR ITSELF, AND ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS WRITE GOOD SONGS THAT MAKE MONEY AND HAVE THE WORK ETHIC TO MAKE THINGS HAPPEN FOR YOURSELF, SO WITH OR WITHOUT HELP, YOU BETTER BELIEVE THAT THE NAME WALT GULLY WILL NOT GO UNDONE, I AM GONNA MAKE IT, BY ANY MEANS, I HAVE TO GET IT, EVERYDAY I WAKE, IS ANOTHER DAY I GET CLOSER, AND THIS IS MY MOTTO I LIVE BY, "I DON'T HAVE TO BE THE RICHEST, I DON'T HAVE TO BE THE DOPEST, BUT AS LONG AS I AM FOCUSED, I WON'T BE THE BROKEST" by WALT GULLY
