Yo! I decided to lrepackage the whole 2008 lp project for 2009 and it's going to be a two-volume set entitled DRD: Da Rev Doc. Volume One will consist of tracks from the lp that was going to be Radioactivist. Volume Two will be some tracks from Radioactivist and a couple of new joints with tracks from the archives which I was tentatively calling Total Chaos. I'm designing a new cover scheme for this set and so I've delayed the release to 2009 meaning that instead of two 2009 releases, there will effectively be three. Check out some advanced tracks at
www.myspace.com/reapalife Volume One of new lp has a Christian slant to it as well as the track Head'Em Up which is for the veterans from the front. The title of Volume Two Total Chaos is what I think we are heading for if the African community don't wake up from this temporary Obamafest we got going quick.

We gots a whole new ball of wax in da works for ya'll. First of all, we want to thank the folks over at Start-Up Nation for honoring the Reapalife cause. We were ranked 6th in worldliness and 10th in wackiness among US home-based businesses. We don't mind being wacky cause that represents the off-the-beaten, well-trod path perspective we come with. And we definitely worldly with this global PanAfrichristian perspective. So whoop dere it is. And thanks to all those that visited us since then glad to have ya'll. If you support the cause, pick up a video, an album, a single, or some gear so we can keep the campaign rolling..ya know?
