Producer: (Acapella)

Why This Title: google it

Concept: Colossians 1:16

Favorite Line: “the past is past and God i know every feeling i’ve ever felt for her, You feel that way for me.”

Random Facts: i wrote this song in my head while washing dishes at work. | based off a Louie Giglio sermon i saw on youtube| The Sample in the beginning is “A Case Of You” by James Blake

Your music is so unique and experimental! Will we hear any more 'Party' sounds from you on the New Album 'Purple Panda' or in the near future? Sounds like your song 'Party Starter' are not often found in Christian Hip Hop, or any clean Hip Hop made by Christians, so its real nice to have some clean beats that sound dope! Just wondering :)

there is no huge electronic party sound on PURPLE*PANDA, BUT it starts off with a funk/electro fusion. i’m experimental so i try to never do the same thing. But in the future, you will here more radio style instrumentals, with my weird writing.

SPZRKT 2012. The Beginning

Fri, 21 Dec 2012 20:28:34 -0600

August 26th, 2011: then known as Xay Crosby was eliminated in the first round of American Idol auditions in Houston, Tx.

This rejection reignited the fire to write again. The fire to write set a fire to record again. In December 2011, basic recording equipment was bought, Xay Crosby was buried and Spazzy Rocket was reborn.

On January 1st, 2012, Spazzy Rocket released his first song as a solo artist, ‘Morning’. After many positive responses (and finally somewhat learning how to use cubase 4), Spazz continued recording, abbreviated his name to SPZRKT, and began to work on his debut project, ‘While We’re Young’. Why was i talking in the 3rd person? CUZ ITS AWESOME.

While We’re Young was recorded in my apartment bedroom, in a corner. i had to the talent to record but not to engineer, so the mixes were horrible. with very little extra money, i could only afford to have 2 songs mixed by an engineer. but i didnt let that excuse stop me. i had to put out music, and if i was good enough, someone would be willing to help me in the future.

June 6th, 2012, While We’re Young is released. new fans, waaaay more followers, and the attention of producers and artists in a position to help me. A feature on Black Knight’s debut album, becoming a Social Club Misfit Gang Wolfpack member, the connection with D-Flow, all because i took a chance on a badly mixed mixtape. i trusted God.

Here we are in December and the second project, PURPLE*PANDA, releases on Christmas. much higher expectations, and the attention of even more industry names that could help. will this be viewed as a sophmore slump, or a catapult into a discussion of great music with other great artists?

either way, what a difference a year makes.

PURPLE PANDA Track Facts: Misfit Gang Ft Dre Murray & FERN

Fri, 21 Dec 2012 18:43:56 -0600

producer: Kuedo

why that title?: cuz

concept: it’s not rocket science. it’s really not that deep.

Features: Dre Murray & FERN

Favorite Line: “if it wasnt for the music i’m secluded from my culture cuz i can’t pull Mercedes, better luck with Hayley, different from these other dudes, that’s just how He made me”

random facts: Dre dm’d me on twitter and asked to be on any record on the project. i was honored. | i found this beat on iTunes|

PURPLE•PANDA Track Facts: Eyes In The Back Of Your Head

Thu, 20 Dec 2012 18:03:41 -0600

Producer: James Blake/Untold

Why This Title?: it’s cool.

Concept: your future doesn’t have to suck.

Favorite Line: “well you might as well have just stayed, unpack your bags and get back in your bed since the future has you bored.”

Random facts: James Blake is my musical hero, this is the Jesusiest song on the project, this song was recorded in August.

PURPLE•PANDA Track Facts: Seaux Good

Wed, 19 Dec 2012 15:05:48 -0600

Producer: @CoreyArnell

Why that title?: because So Good has been used a bajillion times.

Concept: recognizing that the little everyday things we do are a true blessing, no matter how life is going, because of God’s Goodness.

Random facts: the beat was titled Lipgloss.
The beat sat in my email for about 3 months.
There is a second verse, but it sucks.

I recorded it next to my bed.

It’s the least impressive song on the project.

My laptop is too slow and can’t handle long Cubase sessions so the song was recorded in two separate sessions.

PURPLE•PANDA Track Facts: Cliché Love

Tue, 18 Dec 2012 13:38:11 -0600

Producer: @CoreyArnell.

Why That Title?: Corey sent me the best and it was already named Cliché Love.

Concept: because of the title, I was trying NOT to write a cliché love song, but in doing so, I decided to write an extremely cliché love song and use it to show just how real God’s love is.

Random facts: this was the second to last song I recorded for the project, I recorded it in my lucky shamrock boxers because those boxers make hits.

Ask anything else you wanna know about this song.
