LETS GET TO WORK


Taken from an interview on THE SMOKING SECTION BLOGSITE (check the link to the right) of Detroit Rapper Trick Trick. Its pretty much what i needed to hear right about now about life in general, and im sure others need to as well.

Trick: Well, I recorded it because I kinda got tired of everybody sayin’…you know, everyone been like, ‘It’s fucked up out here,’ or, ‘the music industry is bad now,’ ‘CD sales are down,’ ‘The economy is fucked up.’ You know, when you breathe that negative energy outta you and you set that shit into your mind, you have a negative mindstate set to believing that it’s hard out here. But, if you set your mindstate to ‘I’m going to get off my ass, there’s money out there. I’m going to get it, wherever the fuck it’s at, by any means necessary,’ well, staying the fuck out of jail. 

It’s just like, you gotta get it. You just can’t continue to whine about what the fuck is goin’ wrong in the world, why everything is fucked up, or that’s all your mind is going to be set on. You might as well focus on some shit that’s going to get you some bread. There’s money out there so go get it. Get yo ass up and go to work, you know what I’m sayin? I say that to the music industry, all the hustlers who complaining, let’s work. Extend our hours. Let’s work. Let’s do what the fuck we gotta do to get it. Let’s work.

Trick: Everybody. You know, I wrote the verse somewhat pertaining to rap, but that’s to the cats in the streets. That’s to people who gotta get up in the morning and go to work…that got bills to pay, earning just enough to pay the bills, trying to fill up they tank and pay off they mortgage. That’s to everybody right there. Let’s work. Stop whining and let’s work. Ya’ll keep saying that negative shit, people start believing it and then they fucked up. Then everyone got this whole negative mind state about George Bush, gas prices…Yeah, it’s fucked up, but there’s still bread out there. Let’s get it.

Oh yea check out there site. I find it amusing and real.
