Perfect? Nah… If you’ve cracked open even a sliver of my music, you would know it’s been anything close to perfect. What keeps me moving is that I’m not where I used to be. Even when you’re going through hard times, look at how far you’ve come. I’ve been almost homeless, I’ve been jobless, tired, depressed, & hopeless. Moments I wanted to throw in the towel. I’ve tried and tried and tried. Failed and failed and failed. I’ve almost given up on music multiple times due to lack of growth (or the perception of it). Almost stopped doing Write Mind due to lack of participation. Nonetheless… I stand on my own two, with a firm foundation on God and the motivation that every day gets one step better. Don’t be weary. Don’t stop. I believe in YOU. Believe in yourself. #wasssup #jfaith 📸: @krispypic_kng (at Lowell, Massachusetts) https://www.instagram.com/p/CfcyLSmJl9Z/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Any crossroads I come across, I trust that God will guide me. So many opportunities are opening up right that I’m excited to share very soon and I couldn’t have received them without him. I know I’ve been quiet musically but it’s coming and I thank all the day ones for hanging around, patiently waiting. Good things are on the way.

🎶 Now I’m counting up my blessings feel like a million Odds one of a billion so thanks is not a ceiling In the end I’m just a guy with a fitted and sweats Who began with nothing more Who would’ve guessed? 🎶 From recording with a RockBand microphone to building confidence to perform in front of people you don’t know. The journey has always been the focus. 📸: @picskrispy . . . #songwriter #hiphop #lyricist #boombap #scratch #dj #90shiphop #jfaith #mocg #studiosession #bars #hiphopbars #lyricism #realistintheroom #recordingartist #hiphopmusic #hiphopinternational #hiphopheads #hiphoplife #newmusic #feature #cambridge #musicpost #bostonmusicscene #bostonhiphop #lyricistlounge #instrumental #beat (at Lowell, Massachusetts) https://www.instagram.com/p/CaQYfKcJUBu/?utm_medium=tumblr

Don’t be discouraged if you fail or make a mistake. Get up, move on, keep pushing. Control your today. Worry about tomorrow, tomorrow. Give yourself some slack. Set those small goals and build from there. You are your biggest motivator. Whatever needs to be done, do. I wish I could take credit for all that but a wise man told me this and I thought I should share it with you too #wasssup #righteousness #catchthat #pastorD (at Lowell, Massachusetts) https://www.instagram.com/j_faithofficial/p/CXR6dGMJKFx/?utm_medium=tumblr

Who am I to tell you what to believe or how to live? I’m just one person. I’ve been through and seen some things that have made me who I am today. We all have different struggles and handle them in different ways. Lessons come in all shapes and forms. It’s going to hurt. The scars are the reminders to not make the same choices twice. Nothing to be ashamed of. Just like school, you learn something and apply it later. Do the same with life. (at Life Lessons) https://www.instagram.com/p/CFIafesHOrI/?igshid=1uv1e81y7d7hn

I’m not sure what the future has in store. I like being different. Putting my head down and making music. it’s not as quick as most people expect nowadays but to me it’s not about just vomiting on a beat to make music. Structure. Substance. Influence. And more. I don’t bother nobody. I’m only looking to improve the culture. I hope y’all are having a good day. Keep your head up. You’re blessed. . . . 📸: @herothephotographer or @charlesawoodson (at The Jungle Community Music Club) https://www.instagram.com/p/CFCxjinHGIJ/?igshid=df1davyl6zaw

I would be repressed to say I know how victims of this tragic event still feel today. For me whenever this day comes around I think I’m awe that it occurred and how many people had to endure this moment. Not only in NY, but DC, and PA. I pray for peace and love. Look at what hate brings us. How is hate a solution? It’s only dominos. I pray for the victims and families of the victims who still deal with the effects of this event. I pray for peace and love between all races, cultures, religions, beliefs, etc. I as a person and human are not above you. I respect you and wish you nothing but joy and happiness in this life. It’s too fragile and short.

What a weekend I had just moving stuff. Seemed like it wouldn’t end. Barely had time to take a selfie can you believe that?! Anyway, you’re going to have your moments where life is going to throw a thousand things your way and it’ll seem like you can’t juggle it all. Eventually you will look back and everything will have quieted down and you’ll never see the benefits until it’s over (at Lowell, Massachusetts) https://www.instagram.com/p/CE5Pc20H-Z6/?igshid=a4p9sli087q4

What a new normal. Livestream. Low-key venues. Beautiful connections and great people. @herotheemcee and @barsoverbarsmedia are supporting local hip hop with opportunities for artists to share their music. We may not be in front of a large crowd but the vibe is all the same. Tune in and enjoy the show (at The Jungle Community Music Club) https://www.instagram.com/p/CE0MAzYHsQr/?igshid=15b6uvec7le70

Tune in to hear some unreleased music and some dope artists share their passion. And you don’t have to leave your couch! (at The Jungle Community Music Club) https://www.instagram.com/p/CEppE7THmYv/?igshid=buly6m8k35hr

@herotheemcee sent me a beat. I went to work. Work complete ✅ (at Hero The Emcee) https://www.instagram.com/p/CEm89E_HOA9/?igshid=1x11uiqhb72um

I’ve been motivated more than ever to get back in shape and push myself harder. It’s a pain wearing a mask in the gym but I get myself up at 4AM Monday through Friday to make sure I don’t waste any more time. Muscle memory is great and I’ve been trying new things to truck my body and get it loving again. Take care of your physical health as much as the mental. They can work hand in hand. If anyone is looking for tips, hit up my guy @blaisetraining or @kingdxiii Both kept me super motivated during quarantine and know their stuff (at Choice Fitness Chelmsford) https://www.instagram.com/p/CEdHadDHbN_/?igshid=1g6kaslalii6z

Read it. Read it again. Now apply it. Fact: you will NEVER be perfect. Fact: you can ALWAYS get better Now I know that sounds harsh but nobody is perfect. yah yah yah I said it so have 100000000 other people. But some still don’t get it. You don’t have to be at the level you perceive others at on social media no matter that situation. If you can do one push-up do one. Tomorrow, go after two. Even the attempt at two is showing you are trying to be better than yesterday because yesterday you only tried one. If you earn $1 today, tomorrow learn how to make $2. Even if you don’t make $2, you still learned how to get there. Mental vs. monetary growth. Still better than yesterday. Truth: you. are. AMAZING. Build. Learn. Grow. . . . #jfaith #writemind #wrtmnd #wordsofwisdom #motivationalmindset #courageoverfear #purposes #journey #mindsetmafia #staypositivewithyourlife #mentalhealth #ambitionovereverything #inspirationalthought #successisamindset #nevergiveuponyourdreams #determinationisthekey #growth #followthepath #trustthejourney #positivityrules #motivationalthought #courageousliving #purposeliving #mindsetforgreatness #hustlerambition #inspire (at Berlin, Germany) https://www.instagram.com/p/CEZlFQbHvsq/?igshid=1mw8ono7c155p

I had the amazing opportunity of being a part of a fundraiser or what we call, a “Funkraiser,” that contributes proceeds to an organization doing amazing works. This year we chose @cityyearnh and all the work they say for youth. It was extremely humbling to know we raised over $700 for them thanks to the great people who attended the show. We couldn’t have done it with out you. It truly goes to show the great things you can do with a team and bringing people together.

This will NEVER do it’s full justice without @kemichiphop but I wanted to brush up on my video editing skills and putting something together for y’all. Originally this was just for TikTok but hey, the people demanded a post on here so, enjoy. Drop a comment if you think me and Kemic should make a full length video of ‘One Day.’ (at Sydney, Australia) https://www.instagram.com/p/CEPlxnhnG_E/?igshid=yq3y1gxpyf6d

I got a message today from a good friend of mine that said I saved them from a dark point in their life. I honestly didn’t know what to say but the feeling of in my heart was everything I hope to be in this life. To be an inspiration and to help someone through difficult time and help them grow. I NEVER expected to be a part of music like this or to work with you. It has been one of the most rewarding things in my life. I just feel blessed to be able to do so (at Lowell, Massachusetts) https://www.instagram.com/p/CENV1eHHljX/?igshid=t09lfxdishr9
