These days have been very productive. ( BUZY!!!)  I dont believe its good to talk about everything that I do, but I will let you in on a few blessings.

 CONDOLENCES...
Few years ago I had the chance to work with the Greatest photographer ever. His name is Stan Shaffer. He was 60-something years old in age but with 21 yr old energy and his work is timeless and beautiful. I used to hang out at his place daily after "Making the band" was finally over and I met a lot of great people over there including my producer Eddie Loco, BurnemUp, Dj Sickamore, top models of all kinds and a load of great people within entertainment. He worked with the best in high fashion and the "Vogue" lifestyle yet knew more reggae music than most Caribbean people. I shared MANY great memories with him and I will never forget how great of a man he is. Cheers to you Stan and eternal blessings. My love, condolences and Sympathy to Allie, his daughter, his son, the whole family and every friend that shared in his life journey. May God bless. One Love. Thanks Stan.

I LIVE AND DIE FOR YOU


I remember one time someone asked me " Dylan...If you could go back into time during the Making the band days and change one thing, what would it be?". Now usually my answer is "Nothing...because everything that I did has made me the stronger man and artist that I am today". But this particular day, I answered the question differently and I told him, "I wish I had a son back then.

Deep. Kids change everything. Having a kid changes your perspective on a lot of things. I've been thru a lot, most of which you will never know unless you banged with me or grew up with me. I've seen jail cells, gunshots, drugs,been shot at, cut, did the shooting, did the stabbing, the fuckery, the crazy nights, the showbiz, the groupies and much more....most things which didnt earn me anything. I would NEVER want my son to go thru half of what I seen.

He is going on 6 years old and I won't even introduce him to the women I date...unless one passes the test of time and is worth it, because I dont want him getting attatched. I have changed his diapers and doctored his flu when he caught it. He has been living with me and I have been raising him for the past 3 or 4 years now. I teach him about God and real life. This world is so corrupted that I dont know if I should even have any more kids. Parents in the bizz....and those in any hustle...lets TRY and remember that whatever we do...one day...kids are gonna see that. Whether your Dylan, Diddy, 50cent, Superhead, Kat Stacks or Keisha from BK, NY...our kids will know and see the things we do. And if you've been thru the concrete like I have, then you KNOW thats some of that stuff is no good for our babies to grow up to. Like I said...Im faaar from perfect...Jah knows!! But I am TRYING my best to raise my son to be the next President of his Own world. One Love and blessings to everyone with kids and all the single parents.

And to my son Tristan who will one day probably read this ( because everything on the internet last forever): I love you and Daddy did his best to provide for you. For the nights when I wasn't "there", I was still there. Please stay positive and never be a follower of people. Follow God and everything will be alright. I love you. Blessings.
