Ok,
So I've always had this hidden agenda to be a DJ someday. When I was asked to do the music for Ashley's make-up scene in a fashion show she's doing (Saturday). I jumped at the chance. This is the final mix. and I hope you enjoy.
The Name is EseHombre, I live my life different-lay!
Do I look high?
"I wish I could fit myself in my pocket, and tie myself to a rocket, and send myself to outer space, I wish I had a different face...I wish my life was a little less seedy, why am I always so greedy?" -Lily Allen, "Cheryl Tweedy"
In my tavels I have found that it's better to be a happy, easy-going person. You make more friends that way, not to mention the fun you'll have.
"Life is 5% what happens and 95% how you react."
"Always question authority"
"In order to BE fierce, you have to KNOW you're fierce. In order to KNOW you're fierce, you have to BE fierce."
These three quotes have helped my life and my confidence, tremendously.
I can't wait for this year to start, I'm shitting on everybody.
I'm putting it here to make sure I have mad back-ups. This, I guess, is me being a DJ.

I'm sitting here @ work, Looking like a jerk
(You're a jerk, You're a jerk!)
Outside, my gas tank's on E
Wanna hop in my car so I can be free.
But the little bit of gas I got won't get me far.
Gettin broker everyday just because I have a car.
I wanna take a trip across the world, but I got no funds
So I'm runnin round like a squirel trynna get a nut
They say Africans live in tiki huts, some do, but some
livin in homes like king tut.
They made their money off of exploiting the impovrished
kindda like a crack dealer in my hood. On some real ish.
I really like that song by Nina Sky called 'On Some Bullshit'.
Dawn in Melbourne - Kayta Hackman
Don't you love a good collaboration? Especially when it's a GOOD one. Well Diplo+Switch got together and came up with the concept of a Jamaican super hero, and birthed was Major Lazer. The epitome of a man: Funky, schizophrenic, club-friendly, potheaded, Auto-Tuned, a father, and a womanizer. It's Diplo giving the people what they want and Switch giving us Americans an out of body experience. We're Major Lazer's fans singing his praises as we shake and gyrate in a Jamaican dance-hall. Major Lazer keeps the creepy, rhythm less, blood-sucking vampires aweigh.
I'm looking for INSPIRATION...for the magazine and the photoshoot. The flyer I made encompasses the way I want the mag to look. These are a few examples of things that inspired the theme and the plan of execution.
Maya's Kala album art.
Alex Wek and her fabulous dark skin and African Features (I need more girls like this).
Dashikis and Kente...And I want all the dark skinned little girls of the world to grow up thinking that they're beautiful.
I had one more pic, but the comp is jacked up I'll upload it latro.
So I've been neglecting this blog like nobody's business, but today is a great day to update.
1st of all...I'm single and it's Summer. 2 innocent aspects of my life that when combined can be very dangerous. 2nd...I have eczema on a few parts of my body and it's making me angry. These past 4 weeks have been very interesting. Besides breaking up w/ Ballkid, I've been trying to get my mind right. I took a trip to Columbus to see Angelo and Will. I came out to Will officially, which was a little less climactic than I thought it would be. He already knew. So...I'm officially happy with things b/c that weight of stress has been taken off my shoulders. The rest of that weekend was cool. I got a chance to talk business with Will's mom and dad. They're trying to figure out a way for me to work for their business. I may be blogging for them or something. The conversation was so deep. I talked about some of my goals and how I don't want to work for anyone but myself. I'm really starting to see how this could be possible.
Uhuru Drama has been plaguing me. I missed my interview...It's a long story, but just know that it wasn't totally my fault. So I lost a little bit of the steam I had going in regards to working on the magazine, but my recent move back to Kent has helped put me back on track. I don't have things like photoshop at my mom's crib.
WE ALSO REALLY REALLY NEED A WEB DESIGNER!
i'M TRYING TO BECOME ONE OF THOSE, MYSELF. I just need some practice.
That's all for now. Luv y'all!
