it was halloween and she was dressed like dorothy gale from kansas. she had came with a mutual friend to tag along for the night, sipping something out of a solo cup in my living room when i first saw her. i think thriller was playing. we only chatted for a bit before all cramming into a party bus, but by then i'd already gathered she was weird in ways you want someone to be. like generally speaking i think girls with cats in their 20's have to either be awesome or crazy, and she was fucking awesome. actors have that same toss up, which she was as well. actually actors are usually both. i guess so are cat people. but actors WITH cats? dangerous mix.

the night went like a lot of LA nights do; bouncing around to multiple parties, splitting up with your original group, ending up at unexpected ones with a whole new assembly, and all reconvening late at night to catch up. when i finally saw her again it was probably 5am and i was face deep in a plate of vodka pasta but i asked for her number anyway cause i'm just endlessly shameless and i definitely wanted to see her again. the next morning i was eating at beachwood cafe when i got a facetime call from her, which turned out to be a butt dial to my dismay. so i went home ( which happened to be like 150 feet away) and picked up my guitar.

when you write a lot, sending someone a song about them can feel like nothing to you but A LOT to them, and that can be pretty awkward. luckily that wasn't the case with her, and it more or less got the response i'd hoped for cause we've gotten to know each other pretty well in the 14 months since.

i saw that you called, i fixed my hair, and picked up

        but nobody was there, i guess you dialed with your butt

i think that you're fun
i'd soak you up like a sponge
i'm having over some friends
click your heels and come

i don't know what you think i'm trying                                    to do
                                                    what you think i'm trying 

but if i could have anything from you, i'd wanna be pen pals
sending handwritten letters to each other's home addresses
so i got to know you better 
hang out in empty movie theaters 
and be way too harsh of critics like we were roger ebert 

the wizard of what
no fan of cinnamon gum
you whisper shit to your friend, i overthink it a bunch

shrooms hit on the bus
i probably told you too much
                                        i'm always falling in love
                                                                                the feeling goes and it comes 

like moonlight glistening on water, i can't ever stand too still


but i would chill out for a second or so to be pen pals
sending handwritten letters to each other's home addresses
so i got to know you better 
hang out in empty movie theaters 
and be way too harsh of critics like we were roger ebert 

i'm your typical american boy

i wanna make love and i wanna make noise

daddy's money was designed as an all expenses paid trip for you and your friends to fly to sonic paradise. made with only luxury materials from London, Paris, New York, and Amalfi, there's no better way to bring you and your special someone to that sweet, summer soaked place you could only dream of before.

i had gotten back to LA and met someone that things just sort of snowballed with. i was supposed to fly back out to Europe a few days but cancelled my flight and spent every night more or less with her. i'd started an idea with my friend Mia before leaving that perfectly incapsulated the impulsiveness i was feeling. so i rounded it out and thus '44 ever' was born. 

the photos are from some beach in Italy and wandering right outside The Louvre.

Collection of 4K PFP/Music NFTs inspired by web3 singer Sammy Arriaga.  Pixel art brought to life by Chloe Zorn.

A lot has happened these past few years. Some things beautiful, most things painful, but all of it necessary. 

I've given much thought to the words I want to say here and if there are any that could possibly convey what I feel. For a long time it felt nearly impossible to find any words. I had to go through hell and back before learning how to navigate the turbulence of my sea of emotions. On that journey I found that creation was always my compass. Then my son was born, and he became my reason to stay. 

Almost all of my life has been spent creating things to be my anchor. It's my way of making sense of a world that feels alien to me, to process my experiences and to connect with people. Connecting has always been the thing I've desired most, and in my immaturity I sacrificed a lot of myself to have it. From my mind and my body, to my time, integrity and emotions.      
I lost many things in my pursuit of a connection, hurting myself and others in the process. A scared kid pretending to know everything. 

My childhood is where I stayed.

I wrote those words in the summer of 2017 during a period of severely exploitive label deals, poor management, a terrible break up and my own narcissistic and toxic self-destructive behavior destroying everything around me. 

My childhood was where I went to escape, reminiscing on the beauty and ignorance of being oblivious. And for a while it was safe. 

But life went on and I had abandoned those words and sentiment for years, blind to how important they really were. When I eventually found my way back to them, they had embodied a completely new and much more emotional meaning. They were no longer a door, but a mirror instead.

And when my son began his own childhood, that changed everything. 

The love of my life, our greatest creation and the most perfect gift from god. He gives me reason and resolve, the connection I've so desperately craved my entire life, a chance to break the cycle of pain that has plagued my life since I was his age. 

Still, nothing comes without hardship. 

I spent a long time fighting to know him, to be with him and to love him with everything I had in me at the time. But for reasons controllable and uncontrollable I was an ocean away from him for what felt like a lifetime. Logistics, lies and love lost orbited what was meant to be completely beautiful and so it seemed to be the end of the world, another failure of my own doing. But the love he filled me with didn't allow me to quit.

No matter what the obstacle was, or whatever opposing force I encountered, I found my way back to him. Being in the presence of my gift from god has taught me how to truly grow up, and now the beauty of his childhood is my duty to maintain and a second chance at healing from mine. 

This is for you, Mateo. Thank you.

Ever since moving to Los Angeles I've had the pleasure of doing a bunch of sessions with talented vocalists. The process has taught me how to be comfortable in a room and make people feel ready to record, all while trying to be quick on my feet as a producer and catch a vibe with the artist I'm working with.

Over the past few months I've realized that most of the music I've made has been in sessions. And while I love vocal-driven music, I haven't really had the chance to sit back and do my own instrumental production experiments. When I look back on how I got started in music, so much of it was by myself sitting in a room twisting knobs and making odd sounds.

Honey is me taking a step back in that direction - it's a science experiment of a song that serves as my reminder to let go and have fun producing and to not take myself so seriously.

Happy 420 mothafuccas. I made a mix for my favorite holiday and I’m only sharing it with y’all.

This time around, we wanted to show off some of the dope artists in the web3 world and make sure their voice gets heard on my platform. These cats pave the way 4 people like myself in this new wave. Big shout to MoRuf, Iman Europe, Black Dave, n Heno. 

I won’t spoil the surprise too much but I think you’ll like this 1. Ya’ll ever heard of Dr. Bombay? Thats my bored ape. We do it right over here chuuuuch.

Let me know what you think. I’ll be here waiting.

Over the last 30 years, as I made my way through my career, I came to a realization. I always made my music for my fans. But they never got a chance to be a part of it. They only watched the Dogg from afar.

With music NFTs, this completely changes the game. I am able to release tracks and have my fans buy them but now can make money off of them too.  I wouldn’t be here without these people and they deserve to take more control in this industry. Now is the time.

I hustle 4 myself and my family. When I put something out, just know I gave it my all because that’s all I know how to do.

I made this Death Row Mix for my fans to enjoy. Some bits and pieces from my friends and family for you to enjoy. Even a couple minutes for you throw your own verse in there. See you in Tha metaverse. Peace n love.
