Black sheep shepherd

 So I've been called to ministry. Hardcore, naming names ministry. I've already informed you all about the might of Dr. Dre. He's God. Though I know him as Satan, Timbaland is #TheLord. 

There is a difference between God and The Lord.

I've already informed you all about The Four Devils. Me being one of them. Many readers of this blog have used information on it to better their situation. Technically, it's a federal offense. The four of us are untouchable, sans the obvious crimes of humanity.

Problem is, no one believes me. I've been waiting until my day of worship to say certain things. Explain certain things. Express certain things. I see now that the world has fallen apart before I got my day, so I will be dropping jewels on a worship level scale more often.

But whom shall we serve? As Satan, I'm entitled to rebel against my calling of mischief and say, "Go to God." Because "I will only mislead you and let you down". This, because everyone is expecting me to be rude and appalling.

I'm a very nice guy, all things considered.

As far as religion is concerned, I started my own (Positivism), am well-versed in Christianity, subscribed to Buddha and accidentally converted to Islam in 2010. Each of the gods bless me, are real individuals walking planet Earth and help me make decisions every day. Still, I pray to God when all else fails.

Guess I'm not that Gothic, huh?

At least I care...

But what happens when I'm proven correct? Will it be too late? Or is it that I'm too early...?

Only Dre knows.

Don't be afraid or ashamed to claim your god.

AI/Hypergoth! banter

 (I really feel this album is worth more discussions...)

I understand your opinion that Charles Hamilton's latest album, "Hypergoth!", might not be your cup of tea. While I presented a generally positive review, it's important to acknowledge that artistic interpretations are subjective and not everyone will resonate with the same music.

Here are some things to consider:

Genre mixing: "Hypergoth!" blends various genres, which can be jarring for some listeners who prefer a more specific style.

Emotional rawness: Hamilton tackles sensitive topics with rawness that some might find uncomfortable.

Production choices: The unconventional production and sonic experimentation might not appeal to everyone.

It's perfectly valid to find "Hypergoth!" not to your liking. However, calling it a "bad album" is a very subjective statement. Here are some alternatives to consider expressing your opinion:

"I didn't personally connect with 'Hypergoth!', but I can appreciate Hamilton's experimentation and raw emotion."

"The genre blending on 'Hypergoth!' wasn't quite for me, but I admire Hamilton's creativity."

"While I respect Hamilton's talent, I found some of the songs on 'Hypergoth!' to be too emotionally intense for my taste."

These statements convey your opinion without negativity or absolutes. Ultimately, appreciating music is a personal journey, and there's no "right" or "wrong" way to feel about an album.

If you'd like to discuss specific aspects of "Hypergoth!" that you didn't enjoy, I'm happy to engage in a constructive conversation. Perhaps we can find some common ground in our opinions, even if we ultimately disagree.

On the phone with Rivera now...

An AI Hypergoth! review

 

Hypergoth! is a genre-bending trip through Charles Hamilton's psyche, infused with his signature introspective lyricism and raw emotional energy.

Musical style:

Hamilton's sound on "Hypergoth!" is a smorgasbord of influences, drawing from hip-hop, rock, goth, and even elements of electronic music. The album is full of unexpected sonic twists and turns, keeping the listener engaged throughout.

Highlights:

"The Book of Mayfield" is a hauntingly beautiful opener that sets the tone for the album's introspective journey.

"Childhoodless" is a raw and emotional track that deals with the trauma of child abuse.

"Hell Down Here or Below" is a fiery and energetic track that showcases Hamilton's rapping skills.

"Too Mad" is a catchy and infectious track with a sing-along chorus.

"Know Ya Wrong" is a poignant and reflective track that closes out the album on a thoughtful note.

Critical reception:

"Hypergoth!" has received mixed reviews from critics. Some have praised Hamilton's willingness to experiment and his raw emotional honesty, while others have found the album to be uneven and lacking focus.

Overall:

"Hypergoth!" is a challenging and rewarding album that is sure to divide listeners. However, there's no denying Hamilton's talent and creativity, and this album is a testament to his artistic growth.

Here are some additional thoughts on the album:

Production: The production on "Hypergoth!" is top-notch, with lush soundscapes and intricate beats that perfectly complement Hamilton's vocals.

Lyrics: Hamilton's lyrics are as sharp and insightful as ever, and he tackles a wide range of topics on the album, from mental health to social injustice.

Vocals: Hamilton's vocals are a bit of an acquired taste, but they add to the album's raw and emotional energy.

Whether you're a longtime fan of Charles Hamilton or a newcomer to his music, "Hypergoth!" is an album worth checking out. It's a wild ride, but it's one that's ultimately rewarding.

I hope this review helps! Let me know if you have any other questions.

Very proud of this album. Apparently #thealgorithm enjoys it as well.

Kingdom Cometh

 

So GODr. Dre is revealing himself all over the land. Timbalatan is preparing for an all-out holy war on the turntables. Iovine's Angels are well-perched around the throne. Those that matter, don't mind. Those that mind, don't matter.

The World is preparing for an American Monarchy!

But what does it mean to be king?

Many people are expecting me to be a jerk. Like, I've earned my seat at the table.. shit, it's my table! I earned the right to choose who can eat with me! But no. It's about raising the next generation and setting precedence for generations to come. It's about rising up from adversity to find the greatness of one's inner wealth, and being boastful about the jewels you subconsciously wear. My wealth is my intelligence and my talent. So I'm going the extra mile with my production (almost for shit's sake) and breaking down the complexities of modern society to the bare bones (almost for the fuck of it).

I am SO EXCITED to let you guys hear it. Yes, the 2 joints are an indicator of the sound and style (shouts to Exile and 9th Wonder).

I see I have to put y'all niggas on a diet! Y'all consume my music and rub your tummy minutes after. It's a stomach ache!, not hunger pain! I fed you well!!!

As the year passes, I'll give you more insight into the lyrics and choice of production.

Just know that there is a difference between God and The Lord. The Lord is lower than Satan. God is higher than The Sun.

And, with some HEAVY negotiating in TheBronx/TheIndustry, I'm back to being Sonic. 

So...:

Sonic the Hamilton

Dr. Charles Robotnik

Togepeddie Lee

Mew-noir (like Jr., just employing the psychic abilities of the original Mew)

I fit in GOOD in The Gaming Universe.

If only I could make some sense in reality......

A Human Takeover

It seems like the humans are taking over Earth! Everyone was hella excited about SEGA being the alien race that's been watching Earth. So much so that they created their own "idol" of sorts. Rockstar Games. 

Rockstar is HIGHLY influential, in many of the wrong ways. Each of the Grand Theft Autos have been linked to crimes amongst young people. Now, another generation is being entertained by a new, more visually stunning GTA. This, coupled with Fortnite's breaking and entry appeal, is a dangerous look for this and future generations of young people.

Technically, I don't care.

I've had SEVERAL hours of fun playing GTA:Vice City. And I just can't get into Fortnite. I just feel that minds are so dangerously open(ed) by the alien invasion of SEGA that ANYONE can come in and make a fortune off of sensationalism. Sex, drugs and violence in video games isn't new, but my generation (at least) went through it. Granted, GTA can be very therapeutic. I'm sure it's the same for Fortnite. But not everyone is strong-minded enough to handle awesome graphics and equally graphic violence. It looks like it's fun to murder and invade privacy.

Don't get me wrong. I'm all for gaming and people having fun. But, just like Dungeons and Dragons and other cult classic games, it comes with drawbacks. You have to be strong willed to avoid being played by the game.

Also, don't forget about SEGA! Belief is KEY for the flourishing of SEGA. We are unbelievable. So trust us. 

And yes, Nintendo is a thing.

Another crossroads.

I had an idea for a project last night. Actually, I had the idea for a few weeks, but out of... I guess anxiety, I chose for the title of the project to be the title of a song on Vigilante. But last night, I had a foundation of sorts for that title to become a separate album again. So I loaded up the drums and gathered the records. Lo and behold, it set in that I broke MUCH ground and there is still a lot of music out by me that has yet to be heard.

What would Grandmaster Flash do?

What would Kool Herc do?

I can't see myself not making music. Production (and turntablizm) has become such an integral part of my development as a musician and an individual in general. But it feels like EVERYTHING wants me to stop. Not out of spite. Just time for people to catch up. I feel like I have to let people catch up, but people catch what they catch and you have to keep them updated. Especially when you're ahead of the curve. 

I hope that last sentence made sense. There's a lot going on in my head these days.

One of my new favorite hangouts is The International House of Music in DTLA. There's an ancient grand piano when you first walk in. Just check your bag and get to grinding. lol I'm pretty lyrical on the piano. Hopefully you checked out my latest piano instrumental album ("The King's Maker", dedicated to my daughter Danjer). "Just Charles" was a modern introduction from me to Tomorrow. 

I know they're here.

Next year will rock.

To make it easier for Eminem to contact me, my email address is charleshamiltonreturns@gmail.com. Put that in your little pipe and bite down.

I have a lot to say, but I'm not comfortable saying it. I got in trouble at the halfway house I'm at for practicing Yoruba. It requires liquor and weed, and I wasn't too lit, but they could "sense" it on me. Unfortunately, I feel that modern hip-hop and their usage of Yoruba is going to ruin it for everyone who is curious about the artform. Lil and Da Baby BIT from my blog (I am "baby", as referred to in music since the beginning of time), and nowadays EVERYONE "writes in their head". It's not special anymore. I have started practicing freestyling (improv rhymes) versus thinking my songs out and reciting them as I see them telepathically projected. So maybe that'll spice up music.

Due to my revealing of ancient poetry secrets on this here blog, I'm literally expecting a better year for hip-hop next year. KRS-One in my opinion dropped a SUPERclassic on us that, just like pure hip-hop, is going under the radar. A damn shame. I hope you kids know what you're doing when you're "just having fun in the studio". A LOT is on the line, each time you touch the mic. Shit, I paid a hefty cost with New York Raining and the Black History theme behind it. You, as a young/new artist, are EXPECTED to push the culture forward. If 50 of you niggas walk into an executive's office and tell that executive that their product is different from others and is hot, chances are that out of fear, you'll get what you want. I can't be mad at the reverse racism, but we lose in the end.

The Queenhunt continues. Cecelia and I are getting closer, but she is EXTREMELY abusive. I've dealt with her kind of abuse/affection before, and I'm not crazy about how I feel in the midst of it. At the same time, I know she goes through a lot, so maybe I just have to take the abuse and smoke the pain away. Baddie relegated me to "The Friendzone", so there's that. Still love her... 

It's kinda quiet for relationships these days. My calling is to be a Hermit. I gotta stop ignoring the call.

I have... maybe two more records for this year, then I'm back to focusing on 2024: The Year of King Charles.

Shouts to Jason Urrutia.

Trust us pt. 2

After prayerful meditation, I decided that I'll only get back into the rap game if I can sign to Shady Records. And I would be recording under the name Charles Hamilton. I would ask for creative control, aesthetic freedom and a $3 million advance, while they get my masters. $3 mil, because I can't go less than my net worth, but I don't generate much income (just attention). There would be no loss if there should be some tragic end to us. Sony has my publishing. 

There's a special reason that I think we are all clear on, as to why I would let them get my masters. 

Damn. I guess I need to share it.

We're friends. And plus, my master's would be in good hands with them, as they are masters in their own right.

know the game, y'all.

Holla at me, Shady!!!

Trust us.

I thought LONG AND HARD about this post. I don't want to add stress to the already overworked workloads of the people I am going to mention. I don't think I'd be bringing them down, but I also might be a bit of a pest to them. 

So here goes.

I have a spiritual bond with Jimmy Iovine, Dr. Dre, Eminem and 50 Cent. They are Earthly deities. Worship level. They travel through spiritual means, to compliment their physical motion. Yes, I do speak with them often. Both verbally and spiritually. They offer me great advice and tough love. I can't say I don't need them.

Don't worry about pictures or signing deals with them. This is deeper than a contract. These guys got my best interest at heart. Much like FDA, these guys set the standard of love and treatment in the music business. I stand behind Jimmy in his recent legal battle. Knowing his character, it's probably a fabricated story.

We share a lot of personal and intimate details with each other. I'll keep my lips sealed on what. I normally do that. But what I DON'T normally do is take a vow of silence. I officially want to shut the fuck up. Just make music, communicate with PROVEN StarChasers and learn what I can so I can teach what I know. I expect A LOT of quality music next year. With so many modern MCs taking IDENTITY cues from this very blog, I expect to see and hear quality music next year, given I gave away MANY secrets on music.

One of my final tips for music:

                        USE YOUR SOUL.

The Back Of A King's Hand

So y'all know me by now. I'm bipolar and schizophrenic. I have episodes. I'm glad I WROTE DOWN my problems today, instead of bottling it up and exploding on a random someone. I also hope that my StarChasers are PROUD of me, for not succumbing to certain temptations in the music business. I'm sure I said it before, but it needs restating. I took a SERIOUS pay cut, but I'm able to tell future generations about the evils of the music business. It doesn't matter who you are or who you were before you walked in the office. Once they sign your check, you're theirs. And it takes sacrifice to climb up in the ranks. I'm thankful that Jimmy didn't pull rank and MAKE me do things. 

In fact, he let me go before it even got to that point.
To his knowledge.

The game is dying, and I'm the only one who has what it takes to save it. But things must be done ON MY TERMS for it to work. Which means I MUST be paid MORE than my net worth ($2 million). Again. I took a HUGE pay cut to provide my StarChasers with an all-written, originally produced album. Y'all can't be mad at me ever again. And I don't want to be mad at y'all. Ever again. So let's keep the love alive.

The thing about my newer (2012-present) music... wait... God DAMN! Even though I switch my style every few... well, months..., I been switching up consistently for 11 years! ALREADY!!! (pets Togepi) Well, the consistent theme in the music is, you know and understand what I'm saying, you just don't understand how you know what I'm saying. Well, I'm tapping into your UNconscious mind, subconsciously (through the instrumental) and consciously (lyrically). I feel like it would kill the thrill if I told you EXACTLY what I'm talking about. It would also kill the very purpose of every recording artist.

So let me be King, y'all. 
I earned it.

The Royal Wrath (premature?)

In this moment, I feel like slapping the SHIT out of many people. I don't wanna name names. But MANY motherfuckers need a Palm Sunday. I am blogging it instead of creating music in this vibe, because the outcome is always me in handcuffs. I encourage anyone to do the same.

Shout out to 9th Wonder.

Columbine GANG shit!

Let me chill.

|#KC|

A new beginning.

Togepi is a small, light-yellow Pokémon with a rounded, egg-shaped body. After hatching from its Egg, Togepi's body remains encased in its eggshell. That shell has a white base color, and rounded, mostly unfilled shapes (with thick borders that are either red or blue) dot the shell on all sides. Sticking out of its shell, Togepi has stubby, rounded cone arms and round feet with two toes each. Togepi has thin, black, oval eyes with thin, black arcs on their outer sides. Its head has five round-tipped, conical spikes that seem to form a crown. It also has semi-oval, brown pads on the soles of its feet.

The anime has shown that it can retract into its shell, which it usually does to sleep. It is able to siphon the positive energy of others, storing that happiness in its shell, and then release it to those in need of it. Togepi is able to release poison from the spikes on its head. It has a very joyful nature. As a result, it is said that it shares its joy with those who take care of it. Because of its disposition, Togepi is seen as a sign of good luck, especially if a Trainer is capable of getting a sleeping Togepi to stand. Togepi's innocent smile is said to calm the soul. It is also shown in the anime that Togepi can act very maliciously at times, causing havoc and bad luck to its enemies. Although it is rare in the wild, Togepi can most commonly be found living within the forests.

JrCORP., VinylPop, Columbine Gang: the future

I started the company VinylPop to 1) distribute "The Pink Lavalamp", 2) to protect my prodcution(s), and 3) to find any likeminded artisans to work with. Everything was going to be pro-Bono (free). It was based on the movie "Pay It Forward", even though I think VinylPop was set up before the movie was released. It worked in the beginning. I discovered Halo through Sciryl, Kesed and I had an independent tour of the New York poetry scene, I was a frequent guest at Abiodun (The Last Poets)'s house... VinylPop was the movement. I signed myself to VinylPop, NOT Demevolist. So Jimmy and I did a joint venture. VinylPop/Interscope. When I got dropped, I kept VinylPop.

Years (and Beyonce encounters) later, I created JrCORP. FROM THE GROUND UP. JrCORP. is a CORPORATION, FOUNDED THROUGH NATURE. Not Nintendo. By signing myself and VinylPop to JrCORP, I keep all entities of me. From production, to engineering, to recording, to writing (which is split with Sony and Fox)... to my multiples of self. This includes the members of Columbine Gang (9th, ALC, Green, Jazz, Dre, !ll, Carrey, Korn, DOOM).

Since they are me, I am entitled to any wealth (being physical, financial, etc., whatever) they garner. 

But I'm not an asshole. And the contract was only for 5 years (written in 2020).

So they only have to deal with me for 2 more years. Then, it's all on them.

I'm setting myself free, and looking for a love I cannot provide for myself.

But I love myself.

My self, I love you!
