What we needed

(THURSDAY NIGHT)
After sitting at a session where it seem like nothing was going to get done. We ended our night at Powersource Studios breaking down and finally communicating about a lot of things that wasn't understood. We continued our night celebrating with our fam (on a special night dear to THE FAKULTE'S heart).
Tonight Im watching  a family dance, laugh, and shed some tears in memory of a love one.
We are a team and yes we work together as such, but we also banned together to support each other as a family through every event.
I didn't understand until right now why our night went the way it did.
We all had a crazy day and we needed this day and time to rediscover and redefine what we are doing together as a team. We seen what we need as a business.
The one thing every relationship needs COMMUNICATION.
We also seen how important it is we stay tight as a family.
The last couple of days may have brought back some ruff memories or some hard feelings to handle
but it also has proven to be our strength and fire.
When our real life finds its way into our world of music, we find out how much we hold each other down in both world.
There are so many of us and we love each other dearly, but like every family and business we have our moments where we want to slap (joking).
At the end of it all we come back to laugh, joke, or maybe even shed a tear once again.
Blood or not nothing can make us closer.
These are the simple things that cause others to fail in the past, but its these things that will show how superior we are. We will rain Supreme.

Much LOVE TO THE FAKULTE , P.O.S. and the F.O.F. Family!

The Life I live (My experience with THE FAKULTE) Cypher Circle time

Set The Record Straight

Some people might ask why am I here. What is the importance of my presences in THE FAKULTE music group really is… Well let me break it down so it can forever be broken. I am the perfect fit to a group of misfits. I am a outside eye to what is seen in the world. I don’t produce, engineer and im not a song writer. Im a journalist and I am a real life journalist. I can only write about what I know to be real and true. I am different by far and every member of this team is different in their own way. THE FAKULTE is not just work but they took me in like family. I play my part, i sit back and watch them work. I take in their environment while they are at work. I like to act as though im not here. Anything I do is not to be seen or heard while in the studio but it is to get a outside view on what it is like for a group to rise to the top together. At the same time coming from different places at all different times. We all represents different sides of life from all over. Im proud to be here to watch the first of all the they have to encounter. Its not many that say they was there and they got to enjoy the ride while a empire is being built. I see greatness in the future and I love it when I see everyone with the same goal in their eyes. I do help in many ways then just writing. But make no mistake that is my first purpose for being here. The person that I am and my love for writing has but me in a place where I can write about others and how they have fought their way to the top. The deeper I go the more I learn, the more I see that what is being done here has never been fully accomplished. With every person we encounter the question remains…. Who and what is THE FAKULTE MUISC GROUP. Well I can reassure you they are not a rap group or just a couple of producers…. WE are 12 strong 4 producers, 5 engineers, 3 songwriters, 3 artist and now 1 journalist  and only getting stronger. We all do some thing different and brings something different to the table. We are at the board table. We will make this work. Im down for the ride…… I always been one that is well know for taking the ride. it’s THE FAKULTE Bitchzzzzzzzz!!!!

Day to Day Hustle

I have been in with THE FAKULTE for almost 3  months. In these three months I can see how all our lives have been put to the test. We are stretched out.; our pride has been put on the line; we are surviving and making it happen; we are drained; we are pushed; we argue; we get frustrated; we get loud; we have egos; we don’t get much sleep; we hustle to eat; but over all we fight for the life we want!!!
The other side of what’s going on is not always pretty. Its real life for us. When I look around and watch my crew do what they do its no wonder nobody can figure out what we are. We all have our own creativity and we come together to blend beautifully.
Well I said it when I first met them, and even now as a part of THE FAKULTE, I still say THE FAKULTE MUSIC GROUP is a MOVEMENT. We have already been told that this has never been done, and we are fully aware that it hasn’t. Which is why we call it greatness. There is no I in the FAKULTE, we are a team and operate as such. We all have our roles to play to make one hell of a team.
For each of us we have already been told no; that we cant do something; never could get what we wanted; had some of our prized possessions taken from us. So at a time where we have been through some of the tests of time and came back strong, we wont hear or believe that we cant do what we want to do and how we want to do it.
We are already at a point where we are hustling and grinding through it all and we will keep it going until everything is done the right way.


This is a power house and we do nothing but get better with what we do. This our blood sweat and tears. Nights of not sleeping and brainstorming. We do this as a family and this family is going to be good. We hold each other down and we keep each other up.

This is our dreams, passions, and our drive. We are all blessed in our talents and blessed to find each other to make this work.
It’s THE FAKULTE”s  Love Locs’ aka Chappell (CHAPP-E) and I live this everyday its not a game or a joke.

Step Up.

Its our first night in the studio working on the up and coming compilation. Before getting to our session we had a meeting with a hook up byway of Ms. JJ. Show. on distribution (nice to meet you Jean Joseph).
We all have been on a high off the past weekend we just had. We came to this session tonight to get started on a epic peace of work, and to have a meeting that would tell us where we can go from here. After our meeting we had a brief cypher circle in which I was listening to the guys discuss what had just occurred.
Most of the info we got we knew. The only difference was the source in which we was getting the info.
It was a good reality check for all of us. We came to a point where we had to make a real decision. Are we going to make THE FAKULTE great or are we going to let how the music industry is be our down fall.
We are doing something that has never been done so from a outside eye we come off as crazy. But we are a group that is made up of talent that has never been seen SO we can do the impossible.
As we came into the studio and we all zoned out into our different roles. I looked up at each face of my team, at the same time listing to just the hook of the first song being recorded for the night. I could see on each of their faces the hunger deep down inside, and I could also see the hustle inside of them fighting its way out.
The only thing that man told us that could help was to keep doing what we do.
I see it as we need to keep doing what we do, but its time to raise the bar. We was operating at a level of 4, but in order to build this family, company, and brand we need to step it up to a level 10. We want it and we are going to fight like a lion in the jungle fighting for his pride to get it.
We each are on the grind playing our part to make what may seem like a dream for most.... our reality.
After getting into the groove and we pulled ourselves back into the vibe we laughed and got back to doing what we love to do.

You cant tell a group like us we cant do it.... cause we are coming to prove you wrong.
THE FAKULTE  is coming to take over!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The Day After

.... We worked hard yesterday but i think i have to say we partied harder. Bringing in the Sunday morning hours with POP our stand up man. We rocked hard with the whole family. P.O.S., F.O.F., and THE FAKULTE was in the building. Its always love with in this family. From the new born all the way up to the old souls that grace us with their presences. 
We party and we party hard. 
Its one love and nothing can change that. 
Its was pleasing to my heart to party with the fam after having a weekend like the one we have had. I started my morning "ending my night" with Propane kicking it about how quick things are moving. We are all in a zone and stepping it up everyday. 
I live this. 
I see this everyday
My life went from, what am i preparing for while I'm going through the turbulence in my lif, to what is my next move; and now...... in a matter of what seems like just days. My life has and is continuing to flip its self upside down. I told Propane last night that this is nothing but fate.
I don't rock with anything unless I feel it. And THE FAKULTE! YEAAAAAA I can feel it. 
I been doing what i do on my own for a long time; but this family makes me wanna be better and go harder.  
What THE FAKULTE don't know is ..... ITS A WRAP!
When I'm in; I'm in! 
The love for these people came natural. 
The love I got back came NATURAL! 
That's my kind of love right there (my name is LOVE Locs') :o)
So for a beautiful Sunday morning following a unbelievable weekend. I sit here with  a smile on my face cause I'm happy, things are moving and we are in tunnel vision with no site of the finish line in view.
Its THE FAKULTE and this is what we do.




Love Locs' 
Good SUNDAY MORNING EVERYBODY!!!!!!

Making Moves

My life has take a turn and it’s a great feeling. I have become apart of THE FAKULTE MUSIC GROUP. I couldn’t be happier. Im a part of a movement and its going to make history. The more we get into this the more I see that things are bigger then what any of us expect. I was told by Majah that I have to say us now and not yall. I love the feeling of becoming part of a family that I love to work with. I play my part and so does everyone else. We are on a rise. I fit right in with the movement. I have my own story that can relate to the hearts of these people. 


Yesterday was FEBERAY 11 and it was a day that will go down in history. Ole Earl told me two days before that this day would change a lot of things for THE FAKULTE and he was so right. We did our first interview on the MS. JJ show. On OVNTV.COM  and while on the air got a quick connection for distribution. The last part that was missing  from  the movement. We are about to make a deal that’s going  to put us in a  new  lane. I know MS. JJ said that we need to stay in our own lane. But coming with this much force and power we have to make our own lane. We went to M.s. JJ show with the intentions of showing are faces and getting  THE FAKULTE name out there in the world. But in actually we walked away with a great hook up, meeting up with JAZ-O a great historian in the hip hop world, and getting  more exposure then what we expected. It was a good feeling walking away from  that building in downtown ATL. THE FAKULTE moves are ridicules. Things are coming  quick  and we are stepping it up everyday. 
After the show we headed back to CYPHER CIRCLE and as members went to handle other business the rest of the crew came to show some love. That was a big sign to me. The gathering of every fakulte member in one day. Yes this  is meant to be. And now that we are working on all cylinders we are unstoppable. Moving it quick and coming hard. 


Today we are in power source studios  working with The Ill genius and M. J. Whatley. Making history. Prince Jack, Fayrow, B.Hood, And Majah League all in the room  in the zone. Writing out verse to a hot beat produced by THE FAKULTE’s very own K.S.B., Uncle J  is even in the building  taken in the beauty of the work. Ole Earl has his ears on and his mind is always working on what going to happen next. Lady Fakulte is supporting  us hard and I am  always lurking around taking pics, shooting a  video, writing, or just getting to know and love my crew more. Yea things  are happening and its only going to get better. Until next time Love Locs (CHAPP-E) out.

What a Day

Yesterday was unbelievable….  I woke up to  a day not sure where It was going, or what was going to get done…. By 12 our whole day was packed.
I started of my day doing what I do kicking it with my buddy Ole Earl. While im laying there I am paying more and more attention to what he is doing on Protools (beat program). As he working I am seeing and figuring out how to format a beat, how to change a tempo, and hell I also was picking up on how to count bars. I was happy that I was understanding more of the creating processes.
That’s just how my day started off.
Of course propane came to KICK-IT with us for a while, went to go see our girl RI, picked up FAYROW. And By the end of the night the ILLGENIOUS graced us with his presences…. Its always nice when he comes around…. IT seems to me that he and THE FAKULTE have a great chemistry….  In the words of the Ill GENIOUS “we don’t have no time to waste”. We gotta use each day to get something done. I see it all day everyday. The spirit and hustle behind this fam is bananas! The music doesn’t stop and the name is going everywhere.


Yesterday I got to experience the first of many days that are going to be full, busy, and productive. And im ready!!!!!
