I stuff I need to photo to go in here. Wanted to post this though. Lines of these lyrics inspired that A3 player in a game one that people like. A few people here don't like rap either... but this fella has lessons to teach, so thought I'd post up something for rap haters to read instead lol Probably one of my fave tunes man.

"Unconditional Love"

(What y'all want?)

Unconditional Love (no doubt)

Talking bout the stuff that don't wear off

It don't fade

It'll last for all these crazy days

These crazy nights

Whether you wrong or you right

I'm a still love you

Still feel you

Still there for you

No matter what (hehe)

You will always be in my heart

With unconditional love

[Verse One:]

Come listen to my truest thoughts, my truest feelings

All my peers doing years beyond drug dealing

How many caskets can we witness

Before we see it's hard to live

This life without God, so we must ask forgiveness

Ask mama why i got this urge to die

Witness the tears falling free from my eyes

Before she could reply

Though we were born without a silver spoon

My broken down TV, show cartoons in my living room (hey)

One day I hope to make it

A player in this game

Mama don't cry, long as we try

Maybe things change

Perhaps it's just a fantasy

A life where we don't need no welfare

Shit with our whole family----EDIT--- who fucking wrote this? It's - SHARE with our whole family.. ffs lol

Maybe it's me that caused it

The fighting and the hurting

In my room crying cause I didn't want to be a burden

Watch mama open up her arms to hug me

And I ain't worried bout a damn thang, with unconditional love

[Chorus: 2x]

In this game the lesson's in your eyes to see

Though things change, the future's still inside of me

We must remember that tomorrow comes after the dark

So you will always be in my heart, with unconditional love

[Verse Two:]

Just got the message you've been calling all week

Been out here hustling on these streets, ain't had a chance to speak

But you know, with you and me it's on G

We could never be enemies, cause you been such a good friend to me

Where would I be without my dogs

No wonder why when times get hard

Cause it ain't easy being who we are

Driven by my ambitions, desire higher positions

So I proceed to make Gs, eternally in my mission

Is to be more than just a rap musician

The elevation of today's generation

If could make 'em listen

Prison ain't what we need, no longer stuck in greed

Time to play and strategize, my family's gotta eat

When we make somethin out of nothing

No pleasure in the suffering, neighborhood would be good

If they could cut out all the busting

The liquor and the weed the cussing

Sending love out to my block

The struggle never stops (unconditional love)

[Chorus]

[Verse Three:]

I'll probably never understand ya ways

With everyday I swear I hear ya

Trying to change your ways while gettin paid at the same time

Just had a baby with the same eyes

Something inside, please let me die these are strange times

How come I never made it

Maybe it's the way the played it in my heart

I knew one day I gotta be a star

My hopes and all my wishes

So many vivid pictures, and all the currency

I'll never even get to see

This fast life soon shatters

Cause after all the lights and screams

Nothing but my dreams matter

Hoping for better days

Maybe a peaceful night, baby don't cry

Cause everythang gonna be alright

Just lay your head on my shoulder

Don't worry bout a thang baby

Girl I'm a soldier (huh)

Never treated me bad, no matter who I was

You still came with that, unconditional love

[Chorus 3x until fade]

.... and a pic to for good measure. If you can see any names or anything identifying let me know yeah. :yep: I'll get photos of some new pictures when I'm in the mood aswell.

No mate. Nobody is stupid enough or has enough cash to buy anything I draw. The price I put on my time is to high. So instead, I give away everything to people that mean something to me. I think that's better than selling it for less than my time is worth. I think my main objective is turning into a life time goal. I think what I want to do is draw things with lessons in them. Stuff that makes people think. Then I wanna release it all into the world and hope some survives longer than I do. That way, I can live after I die. In what I create while I'm here and leave for others when I'm gone. Deep shit that innit.

Glad you like em mate. If you got a grand you can buy one lol Or if you want a print that will be a oner. I probably shouldn't say that. It's sort of against the rules. It will get edited anyway if it is and nobodys paying it anyway lol

I'd upload more and I got one half finished here .... but I gotta go have a... ahem.. shower.... lol

Take it easy.

Hey Blaz'd,

I've only just found this thread & I'm really impressed, you're a very tallented artist mate. Some of your work is similar to mine, but better IMO. I love the style you use, very bold, contrasting & angular. I started working on abstact design work a few years ago & work in oil paint on large, 30inch x 20inch, canvass. I think your work would look even better with more colour & very bold colour. How big are your pics mate? & How long does one take? A couple of years ago I started to keep a record of how many hours had gone into my work just as a guide to how much I could charge if I could sell any. I worked out that if I paid myself £5 an hour I'd have to charge something like £500 a painting,there's no way anyone would pay that much for an artist they'd never heard of. However I've recently discovered that there's a few websites that sell prints of artists work (PM me if you'd like to know more) so I'm looking into that. I really believe you've enough tallent to be able to sell your stuff, look forward to seeing more.

ATB, HT.

Yeah man, I like the prints idea. Send me some of those sites and I'll get some prints on em. See what happens. Cos everyone I talk to says the same thing, that I should be making cash from em.

I don't do colour mate. I do black and white. Colour doesn't agree with me lol

I wanna get some of mine used. Like cover art or something like that. Think I'll try and gather a load of drawings and stick em in a gallery or something. I think I've built my skill level to a point where I can be happy selling stuff. Just don't know where, how or who. Prints are cheap as fuck too. Found out it was 50 quid for an A3 scan and £1 per high def print in A3. Bargain. Just dunno where or how to sell em. Help me out man and I'll have a go.

Thanks Wils.

Great thread and some inspiring work here, I'm very impressed!

I've also been looking for a site to sell prints etc online, would be good to know if Mr Tweed got back to you on that one.

Will make a thread with my own work soon but for now, I have subbed to this thread and keep up the creativity!

Thanks. I must do mate. If there's no love there's no point. I love seeing improvement on the page when it happens. I zone out when I draw. Like meditation. ;)

Nope, Mr Tweed never got back. I want a royalty deal. I wanna draw something once and keep getting paid. Prints are cheap to produce. Costed it up at 100 quid for 50 A3 sized prints. 50 quid for the scan and then a £1 per print, to produce. Then you got frames. Can get a decent quality print produced and framed for less than 20 quid. Just have no idea where to sell such a thing lol Gonna go to a few places in a bit and see what I can make happen. Got a tattoo to do later. Need some gloves and vaseline. Dunno where to start with selling prints. Gonna stop in that chapter arts and ask them. To nice outside today. Fucking loving this weather. Anyway. I'm gone. Keep drawing stuff and growing grade. Wicked combo of hobbies lol Take care boys and girls. :yep:

Hey blayz'd, good to see you back posting dude.

You should look into that place I told you about, you can learn to print them yourself. not sure how much help chapter will be but worth asking I guess.

Anyway, good to see you back dude.

Wicked combo of hobbies indeed brother. Nice thread.

Edit: I like what you said about giving stuff away to people that appreciate them. I do that as well and its good buzz knowing they like it. I have been holding on to a few paintings for a while but havent got space to display them so I am going to give them away to my friend cos i know he would put them up and enjoy them.
