First, can I say how great the world we live in to see the First African American President!!!!   I have still been working even if I have been MIA. In the studio with: - 1) Elvis "BlacElvis" Williams - Producer for (Beyonce Knowles – "Ego" / Kelly Rowland – "Like This" / Ciara Harris – "Never Ever"). 2) Fantasia Barrino – We've been working on her amazing album!! I would say "She has an album that should probably be nominated for a "Grammy". I can't reveal any song titles but we have done some great songs. 3) Sophia Fresh- Love these girls' energy and hopefully we do some amazing things together. That is all for now and be on the lookout for new pictures from the new look for 2009 and more!"

Up and coming songwriter Ahmad "Ballad Beast" Boney checked in with fans via his official MySpace Profile on Saturday (24^th January, 2008) with the following message: - "How did I get started? Long story short, in August 2007 I tried out for American Idol. Got far into the process and then was told I "was very talented but didn't fit the mold of an idol!" Harsh, huh? Nah! It only pushed me to want to do better in all that I do, and now I have that chance! I met so many amazing people along the way, and some shared a similar vision to mine. Where is the music I had up and took off quickly? I decided that the only way something will be getting leaked from my end, is if someone hacks my email. I refuse to allow the hard work that goes into a song to be put out for the masses without being ready. I'm sure you can Google Me (Cristyle "The Ink" Johnson & Dean killed that record) because there are so many articles out there with the wrong information. I am yet to have the pleasure to co-write with some of the people that I've been mentioned alongside. "Slashin Ya Tires" was not a writer collaboration at all! The Invisible Boyz produced it, not the amazing production duo The Corna Boyz. What do I have coming up in 2009! Hopefully, ALOT! I want to grind harder than ever for every placement possible and put forth my best in ensuring that I give my all to the lyrics that I feel represent the artist that I work with. 1) I just completed my goal of losing 90 pounds! 2) Shout-outs to everyone that is using their gifts for the well being of music in any form. 3) "Monica Mania Blog" is the SHIT ...Go check it out! 4) I have a really "different" photo shoot that I'll be posting soon! I know my blogs won't compare to Claude Kelly's amazing entries, but I'll try. Stay tuned though, this might get interesting!"
