As I moved into the latest years of my life, I find myself finding music even more attuned to my ear, and the thought that music just may not only be what I hear from the radio. I want to take you into the day music changed my life. A day I will not forget for a long time. Now as a father I must say that music completely changed my life but nothing was amazing as my little girl, but this is the second best day ever. Almost a year and a half ago through music, I meet this red haired girl, not just any girl but someone who would change my opinion on love and life. At the time I was really hurt and going through a depression while also at my peak. Going through a break up after almost 5 years was the hardest thing I thought at that moment I would ever face in my life. I had money, I had friends, and I was that guy who could make almost anything possible. At the drop of a dime, I had artist center stage with Wakka Flakka, or sitting for drinks with !MAYDAY! and talking on one of my sites interviews. I though in a small part of me that my life was great, but in all reality, I was lost.
Through this period of loss and confusion I allowed myself to fall further and further into a depression, on the outside, I was clean and fresh with the right contacts and amazing things going on, but on the inside, the music in my soul was touched. I had never felt this way in a period so good in my life. No it was not perfect but everything was going my way.. or so I thought.
Then one night this all changed for the better, as I had entered the venue my headlining artist at the time, was playing at I was extremely on my game or so I thought. I had plans of dropping the signing of the city's anti-violence pledge on my artist and getting them in the local and Chicago papers. I had my head high and for the evening my heart as well. As Will went on Stage and Truck, and Cortez walked in I was stoked to see the show starting so smoothly, almost too smoothly. From the corner of my eye in the middle of the second song, I saw this redhead. She had brilliant blue eyes and a perfect smile. She had an Ora to her and it drove me wild. I couldn't take my eyes from hers even though she hadn't noticed me. That was the night I met the love of my life, yet at the time I hadn't known it. That was the day that music actually changed my life. Almost going on 18 months now, me and Kelly work as a team, I still blog about my music and she still is as beautiful as the day we meet, That red-haired girl, with the half bent smile and a carefree attitude, now is my fiance. I must say that all in all music has always been a solid part of my story, and it always will be.
Finding true love is like the sweet sound of Led Zepplin on the guitar plucking away on a hot summer night, and falling in love is something you will never forget. The music in my life and my love for the music also led me to the love of my life.
