So is this the last we will hear from X?
- Thread starter BCMoutlaw
- Start date
I just talked to X on Sunday. We will still work together; I'm just not running the company anymore. I chose to resign because I don't have time to do it properly right now.
As for X, he will continue to do everything he's been doing. Currently he's working on finishing his book, Cryptography. This is sort of like his autobiography based around his music. He will break down his lyrics explaining his metaphors and talk about what was going on in his life when he wrote them. He's been writing this book for about a year and half and wants to finish before doing any music. After that we may work on his next album or possibly move right on to the next book. This would be a business decision based on what kind of deals are on the table.

Technically, yes Reese has a pressing and distribution deal with Bloc Star. C-Dubb too. But don't expect anything but Raided music to drop on Bloc Star in the foreseeable future. They are not signed exclusively so it's just a lane that will stay open in case things change for either of them or the label.
X is up for parole in 2014, September I believe. The progress that you speak of was blown up a little bit. When he was convicted of murder, two other guys got hit with murder charges as well. One of them appealed his case and got out. Many people thought this would mean that X would appeal his case and get out just the same. But he never appealed and probably won't considering the prospect of parole is easier and more likely.
For those interested, you may remember that X was hit with a conspiracy charge last year. "Conspiracy to Bribe a Corrections Officer." Basically, a female guard claimed that X had his cellmate, Birdie Loc, offer her $12k for two iPhones. He was convicted of this crime. He appealed this charge and won. This is a big victory for X as a conspiracy would have looked very bad at his parole hearing.

I'm not really working with anyone right now. People hit me up for beats and I'll work with them but I have nothing consistent going on. Whatever X needs I got him. I did a track with C-Dubb for his album. Did some work with 4Rax of the Mekanix for his solo. Otherwise it's whoever hits me up. Probably not too many Sac artists though. I live in Oakland and don't come to Sac that often.
When you're famous in prison trouble finds you. Besides the cell phone and recorder that they found in his cell in December 2009, he has kept his nose clean. He's been attacked and conspired against so drama has always circulated. It's hard to say how bad that will look at the parole hearing. Ultimately he has a pretty clean record and a promising future beyond prison. We think his chances are very good.
$100
Here's my phone number 916-206-4177. I don't really have an email address that I check so call me or shoot me a PM if you wanna reach me.

$100 for a beat? you could have a whole album of slaps for 1600.. Find a bunch of old school sac artists who we have wondered where are they now? pay them 200 for a song. Why so cheap? Cuz you could do a digital compilation of old school sac cats. let them know that they are getting promo, and give them rights to their verses IE they can use the verse again after, project has paid for itself.
Maybe a guy like Rich would lease his beats for such a project at a lower price, with same promise.
Pay one of these up and comings to do a decent art design, 200 bucks.
5,000 invested
1,000 digital downloads @ 8.00 a piece = 8,000
Are there even 1,000 people that would pay for such download?
Unfactored cost is the studio time needed. But I am sure there are hella cats in sac with in house studios that would love to make some quick cash for use of the vocal section.
An idea is a where are they now type comp.

You're not the only one but not everyone feels the need to sneak it into a non related discussion. It's blatantly disrespectful.
I just find the lynch pic funny. Still hanging on.
