“But Don’t Say I Didn’t Warn Ya”

I don’t even know if I should bother because ignorant people will be ignorant people. I’ve noticed the real people respect me and I respect them back. Frauds can’t tolerate me and I can’t tolerate them either. I speak my mind. Call it 2 Pac syndrome, call it fake Malcom X, call it angry black man, whatever. No one can put a muzzle on me, that’s why I started this website and partly why I record music even though I don’t profit at all from either.

Now the current issue at hand is that I moved on from a company and I’m basically “taking” all the ideas I learned there and implementing it to my own company. Normally I ignore talk like this but I just wanted to clear up one or two things. 

First of all, if you were with something since day one, it’s equally yours as much as it is anyone else’s. If I helped Henry Ford build the first car and we put steering wheels on the left side, when I move on to start my own car company should I now put steering wheels in the trunk?  If I’m an assistant coach for the Lakers and we run the triangle offense is it a crime to run the triangle offense when I become the head coach of my own team?

Secondly, people should do research before talking. I co-founded Da Fam in 2006. I was 18 years old at the time. I had very little knowledge of what I was doing and I made a million and one mistakes. So in 2008 I got with a company that did the exact same thing I started out to do in 06′. Overtime I applied a lot of my Da Fam strategies to this company and even after my departure these ideas are still being used.  No love lost at all, I just said thanks for the experience, you’re welcome for the work I did, I’ll holla. Moved on, no trash talking, no bad mouthing or anything. Thought it was over with.

So here you have little ole me, back in the neighborhood starting my own thing from the ground up again. This time I have a lot more support because people believe now and I’m thankful that. Still a certain a certain fragment of the population wants to take cheapshots here and there and thus far I’ve ignored it; been busy trying to find office space and I want to be able to dunk a basketball by August. Only but so much I’ll take though.

I don’t want to go too far down memory lane but I’ve known one thing my whole life and that’s fighting. It’s only over the past 2 years that I’ve matured and realized that it’s ok to like people and be liked. It’s ok to smile on occasion and make jokes. A lot of reading, a lot of self-assessment has made me a much improved version of the old me. However, I think people fail to realize how quickly all that can go out of the window. I’ve confessed that I don’t know how to do things halfway so for that reason I try hard to avoid trouble. I know if I make ruining someones life my focus I won’t stop till they’re ruined and in the process I’ll ruin myself too. So for that reason, please chill. It’s summertime again. Enjoy the weather, eat ice cream, unfollow me on twitter, facebook, don’t check this website, whatever you gotta do. Just let me be.

  1. That’s foul. Said companny was built by a number of people, with constantly evolving ideas. I guess I missed the memo where they were copyrighted.

    Keep doing what you do, Phella.
