Change...

Change... It's something most of us think we embrace, but do we really? For those who still keep up with me see I haven't had much new material like I thought I would. I feel like I've been chasing the feeling and level I once had years ago. Trying to bring that progress back to today. But the thing is, that was the past. I've evolved since then, but not grasping that I've "changed." Thinking I'm still the same, but somehow looking for myself. Makes no sense right? I'm just realizing that now, hah.
I've been afraid to let go of things, thinking that that's what's holding me together. But in reality, it's what holding me back. The saying "the past is the past," is a contradictory statement to me. It's true, what has happened has taken place and can't be changed, so it's best to make peace with it. But at the same time, those choices, those mistakes, those actions or inactions have made us who we are today. So how can you forget the reasons you are the person are?
Today, I finally see my next step I need to take. Letting my past go. Remembering the things that have made me me, while realizing that new things need to fall into place.
Again, for my fans who have still stuck with me, I cannot continue to express my gratitude. My producer is on my ass (pause) to work on this song and I intend to finish it this weekend. Stay tuned for new C.I.E. material! #LyricalDiaryBookII #LikeAStarWithoutBeingfamous

     Haven't really posted much recently since I got my equipment. I've just had a lot on my mind and haven't been able to focus lately. It's been a little troubling trying to get some projects and plans done, but nonetheless I'm still working towards the bigger picture. Finished a couple more songs in these past weeks bringing my mixtape song count up. Will probably be releasing the second single from the new mixtape soon so keep an eye out for that.
     Dizzy D and I are still working on Lyrical Diary: Book II as well. Hopefully we'll have that project drop by this fall.
     Again, I apologize for my lack of posts. I'll be working harder to keep things updated with what's going on. And for those who follow up, I really appreciate the support.

I'm Ready!

Finally! After years of waiting for my own equipment, I finally got it! Two more songs finished. Working on a third tomorrow. Job gave me three days off, might as well use them effectively.

Finally got the MBox and my Protools!!! May be a bit behind with Protools 9, but ay, gotta start somewhere. About to put it all together! Too hype right now!!!

As Promised! New Aycee!!!

First off, I would like to thank those who listened to LASWBF: Valentine's Edition. I know I haven't been producing the music I've set out to over the past couple of years, but thanks to those who have stuck by me! Sorry if I disappointed you time and time again saying new music coming soon... But I am excited to say as promised, I have uploaded new tracks from upcoming Certified Ice Entertainment projects: Aycee's long anticipated mixtape, Like A Star Without Being Famous, and the long overdue sequel to our debut album, Lyrical Diary: Book II.


The first look at 'Like A Star Without Being Famous' comes from my first single "Uncertain Lies" featuring Tranzitional Override and and my music mentor Interstate Chris. The track was also produced by Tranzitional Override as well, check him out on his Facebook Page. The perfect anti-Valentine's song since the celebrations are over!




The next track is "Daylight" off of our second album 'Lyrical Diary: Book II.' This one is more of a club joint that'll really put you in that party midset!

My new SoundCloud (where I'll be posting more exclusives first), Reverbnation, or Hot New Hip Hop, is where you can find this new music.
I'm keeping the hits coming! So keep your hears open for more new Aycee! I'm not stopping this time!!!Thanks for the continued support! It never goes unnoticed in my eyes!

Phase One Complete...

Finally got the Mac! MD103 15". Now just waiting on the Mic and the MBox with Protools!

That Time Of Year Again: Valentines Day Mixtape

So last minute I decided that I'm going to promote this project one last time, one last year, since I'm still getting new work together for now and waiting on other things to proceed with new material. This mixtape is a collection of works I threw together for those who appreciate Valentines Day. Features guest appearances by fellow CIE label-mates Dizzy D and Dynamic Duo, as well as India Carney.

If you've already heard it, then tell a friend to tell a friend to tell a friend about it, haha.
