Life Without Music

Music Is My Life

I can’t imagine life without music, can you?  I love music.  I haven’t personal tracked it myself, but I believed listen to or heard some form of music almost everyday of my life.  What I broad statement to say right?  But I think its true.  Whether it is the sound of a bird whistling or any form of sound or speech, I think should be all considered music in their own right.  Music is a very big thing in my life and I don’t think I can function the same without it.  I mean everyday I don’t listen to my music or any songs, trust me I am making some up in my head to be entertained and happy.  Music motivates me, entertains me, calms me down, makes me smile, makes wanna to dance and so much more.  So imagine life without music for me, it would be like death.  What does music mean to you and can you imagine life without music?

Extended Play (Gin Wigmore EP)

Its funny how the music industry has switched over to a new format of releasing music but adapt some old school essentials such as dropping a mixtape or a EP (extended play) album to develop their presence and fan followship.  Not too long ago everyone was trying to get signed to a major label, but now a days people just go the Indie or D.I.Y. (Do It Yourself) method.  Well even though I “Jixi” has been in the studio working on my official debut album for years, lately I have been fine tuning and shaping the tracks and the content and voice of the music.  Its quite an exciting feeling knowing I am really taking things serious and there are no other project more important than it this time around.

To see the footage of Jixi in studio and behind the scenes, look out for “Behind the Scenes with Jixi” on YouTube and WordPress every Sunday.

So everyone be excited, the music is soon here.

To be continued…

Thanks for reading.

Sunday I Missed You

Hello there Sunday, you are my favorite day of the week, did you know that?  Well if you didn’t know, now you know.  This past Sunday (jan. 9, 2011) I had forget to post a blog on that day.  I have to apologize for that because I love to post on a Sunday and that day is the day I will be releasing my series on YouTube, titled “Behind The Scenes with Jixi”.  This will be a show in which I take my audience behind the scenes in the production of my album and the things I use or go through to create my music album and comedy performances.  I think this is an awesome idea, what do you think?  Either way, if you really wanted to know why I really didn’t get to post my blog on Sunday, I fell asleep simply.  I knew I had to do it and procastinated and got tired and then poof, bedtime.  I doubt that will be happening again, but it takes a lot work and focus to create an music album and produce weekly web videos consistently in which “Behind The Scenes with Jixi” will show you.

I hope everyone SUBSCRIBE to my BLOG and my YouTube for the series release which is coming up very soon. Trust me you will enjoy.  If you are a music artist or aspiring music artist, this a great way to interact with me and also get the opportunity to share your music if we have similar works.

Remember if you like my POST, please COMMENT, and SUBSCRIBE.

Thank  You

Music and Life

Posted on by Jixi Fox
hip-hop girls

I live life and then there is music.  I believe music and life goes together so well.  Some people create music from their life experiences and its one of the reason why music is so powerful, its because its real life.  The true form of music appeals to our lives in one way or another, whether is a sweet melody or thumping beat, or mom singing you a note to help you to go to sleep when you were a baby, music is a part of life.  Everyone’s life is not the same, we are people are not all the same but different in many ways, and so music.  What type of music do you enjoy?  I enjoy and mixture of R&B & Soul and Hip Hop and Dancehall music.  Seeing that I come from the islands, I have a strong roots into reggae and some folk songs.  But there are so many music to fit all the people in the world, and slowly we create new forms also.  No matter what is your favorite type, whether is R&B, Rap, Pop, Techno, Blues, Jazz, Dance, Rock, Classical, or what so ever, make music a part of your life and grab some headphones and listen.  Oh yea you can dance to it too.

Thanks For Joining in

When I am ready to leave the house or ready to go somewhere and need a boost in mood, I turn to music for the exact energy.  I have a few anytime I play these songs and spit the verses I am hyped and ready for anything.  It’s funny because most the the songs come from cocky rappers, well the songs themselves are quite cocky in a certain sense.  Here are some of my hype songs once I turn them on and just loose myself in the music just gets my hype.

Fabolous – A Millie Freestyle
* this a perfect song for me to listen when leaving out to work, because his references is all getting money.

Jay-Z – Dig A Hole
* this song is just got the haters and ready to put the punishment on your nemesis.

Others are:

Ludacris – Get Back
Red Cafe – Dolla Bill
Kanye West – Champion
Bugatti Boyz (Diddy and Ross) – Another One
Lil Wayne f. Cory Gunz – 6 ft 7
J. Cole – Grown Simba

Do you have any songs once you put it on, motivates you to just work hard and be ready for the world?

Thanks for ready,
of course you already know

I wish I had a fabulous flow like Fabolous aka LOSO

Posted on by Jixi Fox
My Time (Fabolous song)
Image via Wikipedia

I am such a big Fabolous fan.  Fabolous is like so cool and entertaining.  I respect how Fabolous has handled himself as an artist over the years within the music industry.  His newly found transition into Loso (Young Funeral)  from his widely well received albums Loso’s Way and There is No Competition 2: The Grieving Music, makes him a great artist that adapts with the time and switching up their style nicely.  He is one of the few artists that can that and not scarifice their fans when not such a major player like the likes of say eminem, kanye or jay-z.  But either way, if I can drop some comedic hard bars like fab, that would be so cool.  I feel like I have some of my own already but I am still a fresh face and young artist and hope I can go the distance rock a simple flow and style as Fabolous, because you know it is the F A B O L O U S, son. 🙂

Thanks for reading.

Tomorrow is Another Day

I always try to cram things into one particular day most times. Sometimes I get caught up liking dates of the year like 1/11/11 or 2/22/11 and want to dedicate project to that date because it seems cool. But sometimes I just can’t make that deadline via things happen in my life or production wasn’t down or the timing wasn’t exactly right for that project. Luckily I live my life based on reality and factor in things that way. But if a project was meant to be effective and correct for its purpose, then another day won’t change that much.

So to everyone, remember tomorrow is another day, just make sure that project is worth waiting that extra day or next planned day. Quality over Time Frame.
As Always,

I am ready to Re-Invent Freshness

Posted on by Jixi Fox

"Absence of fear" 365 days photo 224

As an artist it is very important to refresh your style a bit over the years.  You really don’t want to be caught doing the same exact thing you been doing when you first started.  That is just calling for failure down the line.  For me, I started out being this creative artist that people were latching on to, but the time had change and I didn’t come with a smooth follow up.  Maybe I am a bit late but its never too late for a come back, especially if your creditability is not shot.  So within January of the new year, be ready to see the fresh new jixi forming out of the mist of the shadows and right back into the realm of creativity with a gallery of creative improv comedy, performance and seamless entertainment.

Couple of changes to watch out for:

1. New Music
2. New Skits and Comedic Videos
3. Cooler Photos and Pictures of me interacting with my surrounding, well better yet (New York City)
4. A fresh new wardrobe (my gear is going to be tight)

From JA to NYC
