Introduction

Hey how are yall doing. My name is Kevin, but most people call me Keveeno. I am a recipient of a AAS in Music and Entertainment Business from the great school The Institute of Production and Recording in Minneapolis, MN, and have a internship currently with 50 Entertainment that I am very glad to have gotten.

I believe that every step of the way to a dream is an accomplishment in its way, so each show that I help create is its own entity in a way. I believe that if music came out as more of an accomplishment of goals for the artist, rather than an accomplishment of money, than possible music will be better. I don’t mean that all music is bad but as a avid hip hop fan, it seems that it has lost its roots and came to something more about money rather than about people. Hip Hop use to tell stories of struggles, and now its stories on gang relations that are more fake than KFC’s chicken.

There are some people out there who come out lyrical but have no substance to it. It seems that everybody is trying to rap these days, and that dilutes what we hear which causes our ears to pick and choose something good out of what we hear rather than going out of our way to hear whats good.

As I babble on whats on my mind, I have my first day of my internship tomorrow so I’m off to dream of what could be if I get rich. But don’t worry, I won’t rap about it.

Peace and love
