Who’s matching? 
So there’s a guy on Soundclick.com named “Vybe Beatz” who is hands down the sickest producer on the net. He’s constantly posting his beats up for download, and I’m pretty sure most independent artists frequent his page.
While I put the finishing touches on this “Bi-Polar” EP I’m working on, I’m going to just start going through his beats and rippin em. I’ll post the tracks up as I do. Stay tuned.. and happy 4th!
Here’s an excerpt from the interview:
How are you today, this week and this year, so far?
Everything is what it should be right now. I’m focused, in a comfortable place financially and constantly growing on the music side. The first half of 2010 has treated me well this year looks promising!
For those who don’t know tell us a little bit about yourself:
Born and raised in DC, moved out to PG early teenage years, and have laid my head in practically every locale from Baltimore to Woodbridge. I’m an aspiring rap artist, connoisseur of people and a rebel WITH a cause. Come see what the revolution is all about! Thanks to YouTube, it WILL be “televised” Lol.
Check out the entire interview here (click me)
I’m starting to see a pattern with the model fraternization lol
Shoutout to DJ Dublee for winning a hand bag in one of the raffles! haha

On 4/10/2010, the CW network set up shop in Pentagon City Mall to hold auditions for the next season of America’s Next Top Model. So of course, I call up NRG Vision with the bright idea of heading down to ground zero with a camera and a mic to go mess with the models. What else is there to do on an early Saturday afternoon, besides kill more brain cells? Since there would be plenty of time for that later, we decided to make the move..
So off we went, to Pentagon City Mall, with one purpose in mind — to be escorted off the premises for excessive foolishness. Mission accomplished! But before top flight security flexed its protect and serve muscle, we managed to cause quite a commotion. You HAVE to see what happens in pt.2 of this two-part video series!
And miss me with the light skin jokes.. I’m waiting for summer to roll around so I can get my complexion back =\
So, this year I’ve reached a couple different milestones, thus far:
* Established my own company under which my music will be released, Future Celebrity Entertainment LLC. It is not just a name, it’s a legal entity.
* Connected with an A&R at a major record label who is really digging my music (more on that later)
* Launched www.drewdude.com !!!!
* Established a working relationship with the illest PR chick East of the Mississippi Audrey Harris
Now, that last item is particularly important because it marks a departure from my old “one man band” approach. I’ve finally conceded that I’m not Superman and am unable to simultaneously save the world, make music, promote the music, book shows, generate publicity, network, maintain a relationship with Louis Lane, not get fired from my J-O-B for lack of interest, and somehow find time to sleep (I don’t even know what that is anymore). Not to mention, “I be on that kryptonite, straight up on that kryptonite”.. I don’t think Superman would approve haha.
The point is, behind EVERY successful person is a team of dedicated individuals playing their roles, respectively. So I’ve started reaching out to those whom I feel can help take my artistry and the business of promoting ME to the next level. I’m in the process of building my team now, and things are really starting to come together. This website is an example of just that.
I admit, I was a little slow getting off the line.. but that’s only because I had to give the competition a head start to make it fair. I’m firing on all cylinders now, though. Watch how I Ricky Bobby everyone on the track!
(And for the record, I like bearded Jesus the most. Baby Jesus was cool too, but he didn’t figure out the whole water into wine thing until he was old enough to party.)
Oh yeah, shout out to Tia “Tea Pot” Warhall, my new photographer. She’s dope! Wait till you see what we’re cooking up..
While you wait, check out the song and pictures below. You can hear more tracks by clicking the ‘Music’ link right below that larger than life DREWDUDE.COM graphic up top^^. Likewise, check the ‘Pics’ link to see more flicks!
