Music Matters - Fund Great Music

So Im too old, im too ugly, im too hard, Im too consciencous, im too this and that.  I am an emcee.  I also am an IT professional.  I claim both proudly.  I am not ashamed of my life.  However, I have been attempting to do music for 22 years.  I know I have talent, many in the game have told me so.  Even so now as they are surprised that I still have the skill I have.  When I was 22 they said well artists are really broke into the game when they are in their teens.  When I was 32 they said well we are looking for people in their teens and twenties.  Same drill, now they say its over and it never got started.  I am successful in IT, but IT doesnt always like my musical choices.  I am successful in music on the underground and for some above ground, yet when I say I want to make $ from this, they say Oh no we cant.  I am very pretty but I am darker skinned with strong African features to which I am emmensely proud of.  Men chase me down all the time so I am puzzled as to why some would think I am not young enough or pretty enough to hit the road and make this official.  There has always been an excuse.  Just like the Oscars, Black actors have felt like no matter how great they are, the academy will not recognize them to the level they are deserving of.  There are many great emcees in the world.  However there are only 1 to 3 major female emcees.  I am asking alot.  I am older.  Yet there is a demographic around the world telling me they love my music and I believe if promoted properly, they would make an investor in my music very, very rich.  The Roots, Jill Scott and others are dying breeds.  Yet I feel something in the air.  That there will be people both young and old that are asking for more from their music, their radio and their thinking about the world.  I have a great deal of people reaching out now surprisingly even at my age.  I dont want to listen to the naysayers, Missy Elliot followed me, others have followed me all curious to see what I can do with this.  Can I truly be self-made and rise above to fund my family, my project and artists that I care about.  I am asking for this initial seed to 1) complete a full LP (album) and properly market it world wide while touring, 2) Continue working on the infrastructure for my own production company so I can break new artists young and old that have great talent and 3) show my daughter that all is possible if you believe in yourself and work hard.  Each person that invests in this project will receive a share in my company as well as credits for the album based on the amount provided for this project.  I am here for the music, but nothing in this world is free.  People scoff at people who ask for $ supposidly for a good cause then complain that our music is not what it used to be.  We are funding the wrong artists.  I am not against the Hip Hop music of today, some of it I like actually.  Yet we are in a moment where the game is over saturated.  We are also in a moment when your voice and your $ carries more weight than it ever has in history.  So if you follow my music and you are interested in funding a really great musical project, please donate.....50 cents, a dollar, 10 dollars, 25, 50, 750, 1000, 7500, 20,000 or higher.  Help me smash this record and make the best music for your soul and myne. I dont know how else to do this I have ran through all I have.  Now I need help and I hope it comes from you.  Thanks so much for reading, considering my request and donating what you can.  Absyte
