SIMON HAS LARYNGHITIS!!!!

Ugh!!!...I have the worse headache…….I have had it since I came back to work from Macaroni Grill……I don’t think it’s the food….I am going to blame it on sleep deprivation…..and probably lack of eating….but im good….I may be able to rest tomorrow afternoon…maybe….and looking at the calendar, Wednesday may be a good night to chill out as well!!!.....so how are you all doing today??......are you all ready for the weekend?.........do you all have big plans??......what about Sunday???....if not, I have an idea!!!..........

THE ESSENTIAL BLACK HISTORY PROGRAM IS THIS SUNDAY!!!.........ITS AT THE ARLINGTON PARK REC CENTER IN WEST DALLAS….1505 RECORD CROSSING ROAD…DALLAS TX 75235……..THE PROGRAM IS FROM 3-5……..PLEASE BRING YOUR ENTIRE FAMILY TO THIS EVENT AS WE CELEBRATE BALCK HISTORY MONTH……….

I am getting so excited about this event…I have a feeling everyone will do an awesome job…….just hoping everyone is on their A game……..

I have a pet peeve…people that text and cant spell…no, im not saying they misspell a word…im talking about the word they send is totally different……someone just texted me about some music…told him I was at work……he says “okay. Hit me when you get throw”……WTF?......im thinking he meant to say through…….im going to go ahead with that……….

So last night, I hit the club and NBA star Joe Johnson is in there…..of course, he gets flocked by the people in there and I am fighting with myself should I even take the time to introduce him to the Incredible…..I decide to…it wont hurt…my pride almost stopped me though……but indeed I went and spoke…got his info to email him some of my music…..and chopped it up a bit…it was cool…he was a peaceful guy……not really basking in the limelight of being an NBA player and very approachable…….I pray this is the start of something great....you never know who may like your music or hosting style but I am realizing not to let my ego take blessings from me……..

You can lead a horse to water…..but you cant make them drink…..everyone probably has heard that and I am going through it now…..building Essential Entertainment is hard work…..and I am ready for this task…but are those that want to be apart of this movement??......its easy to affiliate yourself with something you think is good…it’s a another thing to be active in that movement……I was getting frustrated by some of the people within the organization not putting their best foot forward to make this program a success…..but with the event only being 3 days away…..actually two…….less than 48…….I know I have to do all I can to make it a success regardless…….now what is their reaction going to be when they realize they are not part of the program….the yesterday me would have take that into consideration…..the today me doesn’t care…its not my fault you miss practices…not my fault you don’t call to see what’s going on…not my fault you haven’t worked on your material…not my fault you are mad that the show went on……..now, its about weaning out the negative….no matter how hard it is……

And even after the black history program, I have to turn to another event…..my birthday…oh lord……and im figuring im going to have to figure out the itinerary for that as well……..ugh!!!......run the streets all day, I can sleep when I die!!!.........

Last day of the month and I am currently in the #2 position at work…..I am so not happy about that…..but I did go to lunch with the Vice President of the company today…and it was a nice experience…she seemed to truly listen to us ad the things we had to say about the company....how to improve…how to be more efficient…….what things don’t we like…and she wrote them down…….I figured it would be a one sided lunch with my focus only on my plate……..but indeed I was satisfied by today’s events……I even had cheesecake……why was it so good too!!!...fresh strawberries…yummy!!!!....I may have to get me another piece when I get off work……….

Well I am about to stop writing for the day……today will be the last black history quote for the month…..I do want to thank Rika for continually finding nuggets to inspire me and help me remember where I came from……

TANGENT…..you ever have someone call you that you have no clue who they are??......

So now!!......Rika’s Quote of the Day……………………………..

“The time is always right to do something right.”

From the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr………………….

Okay, I can’t take this anymore…now my eyes hurt!!!!.....they are so heavy!!!!..........

GRAMPS TAUGHT ME HOW TO FIGHT, FEAR TAUGHT ME HOW TO RUN

Good afternoon normals…..I hope I come to you in good spirits and happy times……one more day until the weekend……….and its not coming soon enough……..im feeling good though…..im lying…..my eyes feel like they weigh about 500 pounds….but its worth it……I keep yarning like the lion at the beginning of movies…….the clock continues to seemingly go backwards…and I realize that sleep is not in my immediate future…….right now, looking at my palm pilot, my next available day of uninterrupted rest will be……………April 4th………and I cant wait!!!!............

I WOULD LOVE FOR ALL OF YOU TO BE THERE THIS SUNDAY!!!....THE ESSENTIAL BLACK HISTORY PROGRAM…..AT THE ARLINIGTON PARK REC CENTER….1505 RECORDS CROSSING RD, DALLAS TX 75235….THE PROGRAM IS FROM 3PM-5PM…THIS IS A FAMILY EVENT…I HOPE TO SEE EVERYONE OUT ON SUNDAY TO CELEBRATE BLACK HISTORY……..

Even you Bobby Fisha!!!!...........

Man…. guy just called me about one of his vehicles…..apparently, another guy that worked for him was driving the work truck with no plates…vehicle got picked up…….the guy that pays the bill had no clue….his account has been up to date……now he has to pay a lot more money to get vehicle back…..I bet someone will be looking in the classifieds real soon………

As you all may know, the 30th birthday of the greatest entertainer of all time is fast approaching……..im looking forward to doing a lot of things next weekend…….hopefully, by Monday, the whole itinerary will be in place so if you cant make one event, trust, there will be plenty of opportunities for you to come kick it with me!!!!..........once again, I can’t believe I am about to hit 30………….

Taking a small look back, it is crazy how quick this year has rolled around……..sometimes I wonder how much I have truly progressed…..we do so much in our lifetime that many things are deleted from our short term memory even before it is stored in our long term…….I feel that’s where we lose focus and our gratefulness for this life…….we have a tendency to gauge ourselves by only the “big” things that we do…….think about the people you have met…..the people we have lost…..the little things that we take for granted………one day I am gonna to try to sit down and write out the things I don’t typically think about that God has done in my life…..sometimes it takes walking in other people shoes to really appreciate how good our lives have been……..

Do I have any regrets??........yeah….one…I wish I would have got to work on time Monday so I wouldn’t have to make it up!!!!!......seeing all these people leave at four, knowing I have to make sure I get my forty hours is killing me!!!........I know it was Jayla birthday…..and I know I had things to do…but darn…….I want to go home too….guess I wasn’t thinking about that Monday……now its Thursday and all I need is a few hours of nap nap……….but not tonight…I got three clubs to attend…or at least show my face…….how long I will stay at each is nobody guess……I don’t have to perform but I have learned in order to get support you have to give it……….if you are by chance looking for something to do, make sure you………..

CHECK OUT CARPE DIEM TONIGHT!!!....1301 MAIN STREET IN DOWNTOWN…ITS “A” LIST THURSDAY……EVERYONE IS FREE BEFORE 11PM……$3 DRINKS…..FREE FOOD……AND BOTTLE SPECIALS……ALLURE ENTERTAINMENT DOES THIS EVERY WEEK AND IF YOU HAVE NOT BEEN THERE, YOU MUST NOT BE GROWN AND SEXY!!!!!......YOU WILL SEE SPACESHIP OHAYSES IN THE BUILDING AND WHO KNOWS??.........I CANT LIVE WITHOUT A MIC IN MY HANDS!!!..........

Speaking of microphones……..that would be an awesome birthday present wouldn’t it??........hmmmmmmmmmm………

******SPECIAL REPORT******SPECIAL REPORT******SPECIAL REPORT******

Be on the lookout for the new Alsace/Spaceship Ohayses mix tape: Men are from Michigan, Women are from Virginia…….this will be the most classic, extraordinary, incredible mix tape of all time………coming soon!!!;……….

Yeah I said it…Spaceship is doing a mix tape……..when in Rome………….

Okay, I really want to leave right now……im not moving but my bowels sure are….I feel like that guy from American Pie that rushed home on his lunch break….I cant remember his name for anything!!!!!!...........

Do women look at their lace fronts in the morning?.......or do they assume it just looks right????........

So now, without further ado………..Rika’s Quote of the Day…………….

“You have seen how a man was made a slave, you shall see how a slave was mad a man.”

This is a quote from Frederick Douglass………

So I am gone…the guy called back about his truck…now its nowhere to be found....so let me go ahead and deal with this…..shouts out to DJ COCO Frsh up in Canada…glad you like my music love!!!......keep spinning and let the world know about Spaceship Ohayses!!..........

Love yall!!!

LONG DISTANCE MARRIAGE......SHORT TERM HEARTACHE

Greetings to all!!!...I hope you have had a joyful day and it was filled with positive energy and greatness……I am doing a lot better today……yesterday was hectic…..yesterday I was tired…DEAD tired……my face even showed it last night…..I couldn’t help it…it felt like my face was melting and I just wanted to go to sleep…..but I got home last night and got me a good night sleep and I felt 100% better this morning….wish I could have slept a little longer………

DON’T FORGET THIS SUNDAY IS THE ESSENTIAL BLACK HISTORY PROGRAM!!!.....IT WILL BE HELD AT THE ARLINGTON PARK REC CENTER……AND IT IS NOT IN ARLINGTON PEOPLE!!!...1505 RECORD CROSSING RD, DALLAS TX 75235….THATS WHAT GOOGLE MAPS ARE FOR!!!......THE PROGRAM IS FROM 3PM TO 5PM……COST IS $5 FOR ADULTS 16 AN OLDER, $3 FOR KIDS AGES 3-15, AND UNDER 3 IS FREE!!!.......THERE WILL BE FOOD!!.........WE WILL BE GIVING AWAY SCHOOL SUPPLIES!!....AND WE WILL BE HOLDING RAFFLES…….I HOPE YOU BRING YOUR FAMILY OUT TO THIS EVENT!!!.........COME ON OUT AND SEE THIS THAT ESSENTIAL ENTERTAINMENT IS MORE THAN MUSIC!!!.........

I am so excited about Sunday….it seems like I have something to do every weekend…..whether its business related or not…..some days, its like I don’t have anything to do then…BAM!!!.........I don’t get sleep for about 3 weeks……its cool though…guess it comes with the territory of being a mogul…….someone should have warned me the work that comes with being a prodigy……can I be a prodigy at 30?.....hmmmmmmmm……

Just left the restroom…..I need to take classes on how to properly shake………

Last night was crazy…..I had a lot of fun AFTER everyone made me smile…I do want to thank Joyia, Deanne, Champ, LOC, PC, Ms Kitty….and everybody else that made me feel better…trust, nothing was wrong…just a lot on my plate and I needed to get some rest……..I honestly didn’t think we would be poppin last night after I was told that the Jay-Z concert was last night…….and at first, it was very thin…..but the crowd came…our regulars rocked out…and I ended up having a tremendous time…..of course until it was over……driving home, I was incredibly tired……that trip seemed like hours until I pulled off my exit……..then I floated home…….

Did yall pick that up??......lol…….yeah, I was driving home…..got a vehicle…..an F150……feels good to be able to drive again…….to have my own…and to be mobile…..being without a car was cool for about a week…..its like being on sick leave or being suspended from school….the first day is cool….but after a while, you hate staying at home….nothing exciting to do…….it was okay being immobile…..as long as I got to and fro to work…but one thing I didn’t think about was lunch…..this probably is some of the worst cafeteria food I have ever tasted…..the wild thing is, their breakfast is the bomb!!!!...but I just couldn’t take it anymore…….walking to our cafeteria for lunch was like the Green Mile….I felt like Michael Clarke Duncan everyday…….but that’s over now…….and I can hit the studio…spend more time with my Essential Entertainment family…..and make some much needed power moves……..

I have a question…why do we hate haters…..they are apart of the ecosystem just like mold, maggots, dust mites, and tape worms……..and aren’t we just as bad as them talking down to them…….”forgive them Lord, for they know not what they do”…….that holds true…there is something inside of them that they don’t love…we have to teach them better…….

Well it is almost time to go….and you know what that means!!!!........Rika’s Quote of the Day………….

“I was raised to believe that excellence is the best deterrent to racism or sexism.”

This is a quote by Oprah Winfrey……guess she told them!!!

I actually have another quote as well….my home girl Tameka sent me this one last night...and I loved it…….

“It is never too late to be what we might have been”

You like that??......I did……never give up on your dream……never…….

Shout outs to my homies, Nurse and Charita……I appreciate you two so much……Nurse, I thank you for dealing with my tardiness and making sure I got up every morning…….Charita, I know your business seminar will be outstanding this weekend………

Love yall!!!!!!

BROKEN WATER IN A CRACKED SWIMMING POOL

Oh what a day!!!.....what a day, what a day!!........how are you all doing on this fine Tuesday afternoon…..hope you all are staying warm……we have snow here in Dallas……again…..in some places…..I haven’t seen any though……but it does feel like on of those days…….im at work, ready to go….but so far, this hasn’t been a good week for me getting here on time…..been late both days…now you know that doesn’t look good for the #1 draft pick…..I promise to do better the rest of the week……I haven’t been getting a good night sleep……like last night, I didn’t even take a nap when I got off and I still didn’t close my eyes until 4…….and even I know better than that……and tonight, I probably will go to sleep around the same time….do you know why??.........

TONIGHT IT GOES DOWN AT MURPHYS!!.....ROUND 3 OF DJ LADY JA-ROQ’S OPEN MIC SHOWCASE…….9410 WALNUT STREET…ACROSS FROM RICHLAND COLLEGE….DOORS OPEN AT 9….SHOW STARTS AT 10….GET THERE EARLY IF YOU ARE TRYING TO WIN $250!!!!!.........THE HOTTEST OF THE HOT PROVE THEIR WORTH AT MURPHYS EVERY TUESDAY!!!!!......

Have you ever felt like you missed out on a good thing?.....rather it was a job…..a relationship…..a missed opportunity……I am having one of those days……I wonder if it’s the reflection of thirty…….I look back and noticed that I have made great errors in judgment……now I do understand that things happen for a reason…..and all things are for a lesson learned……the hard part I face is, how do you rectify the situation??......I haven’t been the same lately…..don’t know if you can tell through my blogs…..probably because some changes and decisions need to be made in my life….I look back on things and wonder why I allowed them to be this way……is my career where it should be??........I don’t know…..is this where God wants me right now??......how about my relationship with him…and do I care more about what others think about me than Him?.......what about my personal relationships….am I truly being honest about who I want in my life?......and I struggling to keep my sanity amidst of the lies, deceit, back stabbing, and hateful dispositions?.........how strong am I supposed to be??.......

I started writing these blogs to promote myself…..and also to vent about things….see, I have always been accustomed to being the one that doesn’t get rattled……some folks say I am nonchalant…..sometimes too nonchalant for my own good…..I figure everything happens for a reason, so why wreck my brain over it…….now, I am weakening……I feel myself at time succumbing to my own pressures…..I am realizing more and more that I have to not only protect myself, but also, nurture and encourage myself……I used to get frustrated when I felt like no one cared…..growing up, it was family….I got over it…..in college, it was haters and competition…..I got over it…..my ex wife….got over it…..and any “friends” I made here……not a problem……but now its to the boiling point….you know how some people say, “you’re crazy” playing…..well, looking in my mirror…….I maybe heading that way……and answers aren’t coming fast enough…….

I feel like the weight of everyone I have ever met is on my shoulders…..I feel there are still people waiting on my downfall…..sometimes, in my own conceited way, I feel I wont be appreciated until I leave this world…..it has happened before…….every morning I wake up, I know its another day to conquer something…….and if I am not learning, teaching or conquering for that day or an extended period of time, I feel empty…….I don’t get days off…..if I am not accessible, some people go crazy…some would never know…….if I am accessible, there are times when I speak to no one…my existence…meaningless……but at all times, I am supposed to care about others…..I am that out….that last resource…..(sometimes even the first)……….and the glimmer of light…..what happens when my bulb go out???.....whose gonna change it???.........

Okay…I think I have bored you all enough with my therapy session…….I have a quote….its not Rika’s….but something I thought about today………..

If you want to hide something from a black man, put it in a book…….want to hide something from a black woman, put it in her purse.”

As a matter of fact, I found out where Rika had been….IT WAS HER BIRTHDAY!!!!....GO SHAWTY!! IT’S YA BIRTHDAY!!!.......happy bday to you love and I thank you for becoming an intricate part of this blog…..you are sooooooo appreciated………

Love yall!!!!

MY HEAD WASNT ATTACHED WELL.......TELL ME WHEN YOU FIND IT!!!

Psst!!...im here….through all the Girl Scout cookie eating, Spaceship is here to vent…again……weird weekend if I say so…..but a good one…..and actually did very minimal…..and still ended up doing a lot…..how are you all??.....how was each of you weekend?.....hopefully you stayed out of trouble……and nobody had to get their baby daddy out of jail…….

So today is officially Jayla’s birthday….but let her tell it, its been her birthday since Christmas…….we had her party at Pump it Up……that’s the place where they have all these bounce houses…..now my thought going in was that I was going to just take a few pictures……maybe help her up a few or even have to grab a kid that hurt themselves……never expected that I would be a participant…….im trying to get out of my bad mood syndrome…..I think I still have anger for not doing things like this when I was young…..and I know I cant be like that for the sake of my baby…so I joined in….and I promise you, they need to have those things in every high school gym class……those things are so tiring…..it is a very hard exercise, especially when you are a fat boy like myself……I think I played about ten minutes and I was ready to go to sleep…..as a matter of fact, I think I did go to sleep as soon as I got home……..but I cant lie, I had fun…and to see the faces of all those kids were beautiful…..they were enjoying themselves so much…yeah im kinda mad I didn’t do those things……

So my mom called me yesterday……not to wish Jayla happy birthday either……it took some provocation for her to call……anyone remember the message I put on my facebook yesterday??......well she saw it….which I knew she would…she is always on there……so she called me, giving me every excuse in the world why we haven’t had contact since she asked me for $1500……..she kept rambling on and on about why she hasn’t contacted me….I told her all that didn’t matter…..its always something…and in the end, she still didn’t tell her granddaughter happy birthday……so when should I start caring…….

I actually talked to Stephanie about it….you know she tries to say the polite things like, “its okay. You have us”......but its not the same……it took for me to write some bs to get her attention……and then I am gonna be wrong when God blesses my ministry and I am no where to be found…she is the type of mother that’s going to make herself famous….or at least try to…….hell she could be famous right now if she told the truth about her life…I know that would be interesting……I don’t even know my mom!!!........

Few things on deck coming up…..

TONIGHT!!...DEREK DAIDER PRESENTS!!!.....LIVE AT TAJ MAHAL……701 ELM STREET DOWNTOWN…TELL YOUR PEOPLE….THEY GIVING AWAY $100 EVERY MONDAY!!!....BRING YOU’RE A GAME AND SEE IF YOU HAVE WHAT IT TAKES TO MAKE SOME CASH MONEY!!!.........

TOMORROW NIGHT…….IT GOES DOWN AT MURPHYS PLACE….9410 WALNUT STREET IN NORTH DALLAS……DJ LADY JA-ROQ’S OPEN MIC SHOWCASE…ROUND THREE……DOORS OPEN AT NINE…SHOW STARTS AT TEN……..AND THIS IS FOR THE $250 CASH PRIZE!!!.........

FEBRUARY 28TH……ESSENTIAL ENTERTAINMENT PRESENTS: THE ESSENTIAL BLACK HISTORY PROGRAM……AT THE ARLINGTON PARK REC CENTER …….1505 RECORD CROSSING RD………..THE PROGRAM IS FROM 3-5…FREE FOOD….SCHOOL SUPPLY GIVE-AWAY…AND A RAFFLE…….THIS IS A FAMILY FUN EVENT………..COME ON OUT AND CELEBRATE BLACK HISTORY MONTH WITH US!!!..........

And then you see that?!!.....that horizon over there??.......yeah, its Spaceship’s 30th birthday coming up……..ugh!!....but I guess I am ready for it……mark you calendars the week of March 4th-8th……..there will be events, parties, bar b ques and a host of events if you want to participate……….I cant believe I have made it this far….you may think its funny, but I know where God has brought me from……..you know I will elaborate as we get closer to the big 30………….

And who says spaceship will always be immobile???..........

Finally, Rika has returned……where have you been??...we missed you!!!....so here it is ladies and gents……Rika’s Quote of the Day……….

“I am America. I am the part you won’t recognize. But get used to me. Black, confident, cocky; my name, not yours; my religion; not yours, my goals; my own; get used to me.”


None other than Muhammad Ali…..boy was he brash…and great at it…….

Well I am out of here….happy birthday to Ms Kitty……sorry I missed your party Saturday….I was at home vehicle-less…..I know you had a blast……Toby Joe even called me and asked me to come up there…….happy 35th birthday to you Ms Kitty!!...love you!!!!

HATER BYPASS SURGERY

I am here…I am here!!!...where are you all at??......lol……how are you all doing today?....im actually feeling good…..of course, I am sleepy like typical me…….but work is almost over….by accident that is…..was supposed to come to work at 10….but I forgot…..wish I would have remembered……3 more hours of sleep would have been awesome…….but I didn’t and now I have to come in at 10 next week…….but I’m not trippin……

The VP walked up to my desk today and because I was a top performer last month, I have been invited to attend a luncheon at Macaroni Grill next Friday….from 11 to one……yes, a 2 hour lunch!!.....God is so good…..timing is everything…….some people are jealous…wondering why they weren’t given the same rewards as I……now I can’t answer that question but I sure am thankful for these things……free lunch on a Friday??...can’t beat it!!!......jeans for two weeks?....don’t have to play dress up……ahhh!!!...life is grand…….I wanted to get the parking spot…….until I remember I don’t have a car…….

2 more days until Jayla’s birthday party…..wow……I cant wait until its over…..I was talking to my aunt today and isn’t it funny how older people can never get kid’s names right……..”How’s jaylen?”…..or “how jaylo”…..WHO?.......my daughter is not Jennifer Lopez……but after awhile, I learn to just agree and let sleeping dogs lie……I know who she is talking about…even if she don’t…….

So I sent my boss a note, apologizing for coming in early…why? Work etiquette I suppose…..he sends me an email back asking if I went home and came back….WTF?...in whose car sir?......sometimes, people just don’t think….or care to think……

My homeboy at work made gumbo today…and Lord knows how long I have wanted some….so I bought 3 cups……..and it was pretty good…told him he needs to follow me to my spots and sell it out of his car……..he thought that was a good idea…I told him I know…….

So last night was quite interesting……sometimes, you talk to people or you meet people and things are not revealed for a long time….I have a homeboy that I have known since high school….we lived in different cities but our mutual interest was the Kudos…he was from a city close to mine called Saginaw…well he asked me to search some of his work…..he’s currently a spoken word artist…..well I searched his info on this site called ReVerb nation….and I had to ask myself….”why didn’t I know about this site??”……..its for independent artists like myself…..and you all if you are an artist……it allows you to promote yourself in every facet…..I didn’t get a chance to really dive into, but I guarantee you I will….for my Essential Entertainment family….I NEED PICS, BIOS, AND MUSIC!!!!!........I will be adding you all to artist under the Essential Entertainment name……we need to make sure we promote correctly and that all proper resources for promotions are used……..

Speaking of promotions, HT called me last night……..now this is a person, I love conversing with…..his energy and enthusiasm of his vision is so infectious…as I stated last night, we really hadn’t talked recently………we had a nice talk last night with the focus being the growth once you live as a CEO…….one of the most important things we discussed is the need to have like minded people around you……a lot of “friends” will tried to ride coattails…….but ask yourself…does Bill Gates have his friends and family on payroll??./……what about Magic Johnson…….I know there needs to be better order and focus within my company and I may have to make some fundamental changes to rank and order……I don’t want Essential Entertainment to go down with flames……you hear the old cliché……”its business; never personal”……..and that’s a creed I truly need to live by if I plan on becoming as successful as possible……

We even talked about throwing a concert at Joe Louis Arena….and Madison Square Garden!!!!...........more news coming up……..

I feel like I am missing something…….

OH YEAH…..FEBRUARY 28TH AT THE ARLINGTON PARK RECREATION CENTER, ESSENTIAL ENTERTAINMENT WILL BE HOSTING ITS FIRST ESSENTIAL BLACK HISTORY PROGRAM……THE PROGRAM IS FROM 3-5 AND IT IS KID FRIENDLY….DOOR PRICES ARE $5 FOR ADULTS…..$3 FOR KIDS AGES 3-15…UNDER THREE YOU ARE FREE…..THE ADDRESS IS 1505 RECORD CROSSING ROAD….DALLAS TX 75235….I WOULD LOVE TO SEE EVERYBODY THERE…….

AND FOR MY ARTIST….MAKE SURE YOU BRING YOUR BUTTS TO DEREK DAIDER PRESENTS……ITS AN OPEN MIC NIGHT THAT’S GIVING AWAY $100 EVERY MONDAY AT THE TAJ MAHAL CLUB…ADDRESS IS 701 ELM STREET IN DOWNTOWN DALLAS……DOORS OPEN AT 10……..

Well I guess I will go…no quote again today!!....what’s up with that!!....I don’t have a quote but I have some advice…..when someone is bothering you and attempting to steal your joy, don’t let them by communicating with them……its okay if you don’t speak with them for a few minutes, a couple hours, or some days…..its your life and you have to maintain your happiness…sometimes people will try to spread their negativity on you…..and we let them….STOP!!.............

Shout outs to my daughter…..Jayla Denise….daddy loves you baby…..you have grown so much and it is truly a blessing every time I hear you say, “I love you daddy!”

I’m gone for now…..talk to you on the flip……..

Love yall!!!!!

BLOGGING ON A BUDGET

Women will say anything to try to get an answer won’t they???....lmao!!!.......how are you all doing?.....yeah I am here…had a rough day but God is definitely the head of my life and I am grateful…….couldn’t really blog today at work……had a “training” class all afternoon and didn’t get back to my desk…….got home and Time Warner said “you been free too long”……..so I had to make something happen…….on top of that, I had to bribe Jayla an extra gift just to get her to talk to me………but its good…….blessings come from all shape and sizes………….

Need to hurry up with this blog…but im watching wrestling……the Pope D’Angelo Dinero just got his ass whooped by Ric Flair and AJ Styles……….I was talking to Jayla and it just so crazy that my daughter is about to be four…..four?!!!.....man time flies…….she was walking down my stairs the other day and I was just thinking about how she was this fat baby that I had no clue how I was going to raise…..to this beautiful princess that is too smart for her own good…….Stephanie and their family have done a great job raising her……..I do my part but let’s be honest…she is there most of her life….im like a mini vacation for her………but the love she shows me is awesome…….its kinda cool to be someone’s role model……..

So no big trades in the NBA….yeah I know Antwan Jamison and Tracy McGrady got traded, but seriously………neither team is challenging the Lakers……and yes, I do mean the cavs as well………I really don’t know about LeBron winning a championship no matter where he goes and who he gets on his team……pay attention to him…he is still immature……….he’s funny and a great personality but I don’t think he has what it takes to win a championship……….there’s one in every generation……….
Did I tell yall my company gave me a paperweight yesterday??.....it has my name on it and everything…..says “Top Performer”………yeah me!!..............

So I’m getting ready for this Black History Program and let me say this…….LADY B SMOOVE, GET AT ME!!........KIA D!!!....I NEED NEPHEWS NAME………..I am so bad at calling people I needed to say that…….but I realized I am a slacker…..yeah, Spaceship has flaws….I work better under pressure and that’s not a good thing…if I can work well under pressure, why can’t I work even better in a timely fashion……I was thinking about HT today and how he says communication is so key……but yet, I haven’t talked to him in about a week…..my focus is to better organize…even if I have to take the initiative in my endeavors….Essential Entertainment sinks or swims with me…..this is my focus………..so if you don’t hear from me, im probably working………

Well, just wanted to check in….oh I almost forgot…why I see this woman at work and her shoes were so big……..they were on the step behind her??........she was upstairs before her shoes……..and then I heard her say, “my shoes are so big?!”…….I asked her why but she didn’t answer…………hmmmmm………….
No quote…….my only shout out is to the people that are followers on BlogSpot……..become a follower…….

I CAN BE YOUR HERO BABY!!

Howdy folks…..another day, another dollar……only two more days until the weekend…and I cant wait…how are you all doing today……im good…..a little sleepy…but that’s normal on a Wednesday…especially when Murphy’s is jumpin……and last night was one of those nights!!!..........

You know its funny……some people equate a good night at the club by how many people are there……but if you have 1,000 people in a venue and all of the are solemn, what does that do……..if they are all wall hugging with attitudes on their faces, how crunk is that……for me, 100 people all enjoying themselves is alright in my book….when you see smiling face, people laughing, cheering, and so forth, it makes for an awesome evening…..my only concern is people leaving after they perform…..then they wonder why they never win…if you are not their, you are not eligible…its that’s simple!!!......for those that do stay until the end, thank you……it is appreciated more than you know….because honestly, I don’t like staying at clubs until the lights come on…especially when I know my alarm clock will be beating at about 5:45 in the morning……..but I do stick around…simply because you treat people like you wish to be treated…….

Just realized I may have some things cut off at home when I get off……thought I was going to have some money in the bank….guess not….this time though, I am trying not to be frustrated……I’m starting to see the sun shine and the warmth is healing my soul…….I called my Uncle Clarence today…he’s a bishop down in Georgia and my grandmothers oldest brother…….I love him because he talks to me but not in a condescending way…he is one of the few people I can talk to candidly and get straight answers…we didn’t talk long but the things he told me really hit home…..we must remember that everything that is in your life is not good for you……some things…or people are just for seasons……and we cant let them consume our thoughts, especially in a negative fashion…..so needless to say, he gave me some inspirational words and had me looking at things in a whole new light………

So today, it was made official….I ranked #1 in my department at work……feels real good too….just for the accolades…..for me, I love getting good reviews…I enjoy being in a positive spotlight…..and to be recognized by my boss and his boss is very cool……I know its better than being at the bottom, that’s for sure…….because getting fired is not a myth……ask…….

Don’t have a show tonight…..wow!!.....that’s sounds funny saying……been doing shows it seems since last week…..cant remember the last time I was home all night……oh yeah, when it was snowing…DUH!!!.........and that’s cool…ima try to soak in the tub and relax my mind and then clean up…..got some motivation at the house so that’s always a plus……..the problem is…..my house isn’t filthy…just junkie…..way too many clothes not to have a drawer…….I need to step my game up…….

Trying to find some venues for my birthday parties….yes I said parties…im trying to celebrate all weekend…….one spot that I wanted I am not sure if it will be possible…..apparently, I was burned due to the fact of helping someone else out….and they associated me with that person……you know that saying, “it’s not what you know, it’s who you know”……well, that phrase can mean in a good and bad way…..so now, I have to find a new location to have a party….I already have one…but I want to have at least three………

Im thinking after my birthday weekend, I may take a hiatus…..no blogs….no shows……no facebook…nothing….my homegirl Kia asked me yesterday was that too hard for me to do….I told her simply….”YEAH!”……..its hard for me to rest and cut off all contact with people but I think that’s what I need to do……I need to get my life straight you know…get things in order for the spring and summer…..speaking of spring….just confirmed a show April 9th at Grambling…..very excited about that…..Essential Entertainment will definitely be in the building!!!.........

Well I think I am about to go…..but first, here is…….Rika’s Quote of the Day………….

“I don’t see an American Dream…I see an American Nightmare.”

Words from the controversial Malcolm X………….

Well I am out of here….shout outs to my man LOC…..last night he won the 2nd round of the $250 showcase…….good performance and I hope you do well at the Finals…….

FAST FORWARD TO YESTERDAY FOR ME PLEASE!!

No worries!!!......I am here my fellow aliens…how are you all doing today?.......myself, I just woke up…………had to take me a power nap……..and still didn’t want to get up…..but its Tuesday night and you know how I gets down…….
TONIGHT ITS GOING DOWN….ROUND 2 OF DJ LADY JA-ROQ’S OPEN MIC SHOWCASE…….WE ARE AT MURPHYS PLACE…DOORS OPEN AT 9….SHOW STARTS AT 10….SIGN UP EARLY TO PERFORM EARLY…….9410 WALNUT STREET IN NORTH DALLAS……..I CANT WAIT TO SEE YOU ALL TONIGHT!....I GOTTA FEELING ITS GOING TO GO DOWN BABY!!!!..........
Don’t you hate it when you are at work all day thinking about what you are going to cook……you get off work…go to the store to get the ingredients……get home, take off your clothes and get comfortable……..you go in the kitchen to cook…..and in the middle of cooking you realize you forgot one main ingredient…..like the protein??...or is it just me……….
I have to stop eating ice cream so late……it does me no favors in the morning………….
From the “and you wonder what’s wrong with our kids department”……I was talking to someone that was telling me about All Star weekend……how they are happy they took their child to ALL the events, even though their child had not been performing well in school……complaining on they don’t think their child “gets it”…….well I suggested that they bring their kid to the Essential Black History Program February 28th……the person’s response…….”we don’t do anything at my house on Sundays….this Sunday was just a special occasion”…………cool…..no problemo…….allow your child to continue to idolize Ray-J, Kim Kardashian, and Peter Griffin……..and don’t wonder why your child doesn’t have a clue where they come from…….idiot……….
I just realized how long that Sasha Fierce album has been out…..a long freaking time!!...and people are still buying it…..that’s the type of staying power I want to have…….when I created, “No Preservatives”, that was my intentions on that album…..for my music to have longevity…..for someone to hear it 20 years from now and remember where they were and what state of mind they were in when they first heard my music…….
Like today, Jayla was over here…….Steph asked me to burn her a Michael Jackson CD…….while I was burning it, I started to play Thriller……Jayla jumped up and rushed to the computer…..”Daddy! That’s Michael Jackson!”……and she knew what song it was……played another song…..and she knew that one too……remember, my daughter is only three……..yeah, she might remember the words of songs but to be able to name Michael Jackson’s catalog is amazing….I hope that’s not what Stephanie is teaching her as opposed to her ABCs………..
I remember about two weeks ago I dint have any food in my house…..now I open my refrigerator and I have too many leftovers……am I wrong if I gave a homeless man a half dozen donuts…that’s been in my fridge for about a week?..........I don’t think they are spoiled……he can go in a 7-11, warm em up…….and have something to eat………..why don’t I do that more often??.......take my leftovers im not going to eat and give them to a homeless person…….in less time of course….im saving trash, helping someone, and keeping my fridge clean…….hmmm…..what a thought………
My blogs at home are so much different from when I am at work……..I think it’s the Heinekens……….oohhh….did I say that…….
Speaking of Heinekens…..I think I have a favorite color….green……..I deal with a lot of green on a daily basis……just not enough in my pocket……….

Okay, I am about to get off here………I have rambled enough……..second half of the NBA season begins tonight………Kobe isn’t playing……..he doesn’t need to…….he needs to be playing in June…….and he will……..as he wins his 5th championship………….
No quote from Rika today…..I left it at work…………….my bad!!!!.............
Shout out to my mans Marcus Cowley……..what happened to you all star weekend?...........I thought you were coming down…and don’t tell me you did and not holla………..miss you big bro……and B Jones……..finally got a hold of you fam……….WAIT!!!........
Did yall know folks in Mississippi and Louisiana get off school for Mardi Gras??!!.....WTF?!!!...........
Anyway, good talking to you too fam….I will see the rest of yall tonight……hit up the YouTube and the facebook……I put a new video on there……….and hit that BlogSpot and become a follower!!..........

I LIKE IT...BUT NO RING!!!......HERE'S A PROMISE BRACELET!!

Hmmmmmm….so now the city of Dallas can return to its normalcy….if it ever was normal……prices go back down……clubs aren’t that packed……..cops can continue to do nothing……ahhhh!!........there is no place like your second home……..how are you all doing today?.....did you all enjoy spending all that money this weekend??...did you enjoy being around all these people??........and did you simply enjoy that the All-Star Weekend was in Dallas?...........myself, call me dead beat tired…had some fun this weekend…..but you know people sure know how to mess up a clean kitchen!!!..........

Who won the All-Star game?.....Shipper has no clue!!!........

There is a topic I do want to address………it’s a term a lot of us have heard and put into context…..but what I saw this weekend was something totally different than what the majority of the public is used to…….there are a “group” of people that long for attention……long to feel important……and long for some quality time…..they are called groupies……now groupies are usually a click of women that want to hang around someone with celebrity status or a person with known clout…..maybe they want to get in the club…maybe they want to ride on the tour bus….steal a kiss and pass out there phone number…….this weekend though, I saw an epidemic….a new breed of groupies took over……and it was sad…….one of the worst sites I have ever seen in my life……these groupies were……..MEN……..

(in my New Orleans voice)…bay-bay!!!!....when I tell you that more men were trying to hang around celebrities more than women, I would be telling you an understatement…….im not saying that all these men had man crushes on the celebs…….but im not paying $200 to see Diddy……im not standing by VIP so that Carmelo can shake my hand…….I don’t need an autograph, a picture, or a piece of lint from their pocket…….it was a tough pill to swallow……to see my fellow man, salivating over celebrities like it was the in thing to do….thinking about it now, it was the in thing to do this weekend……….

7 days until Jayla’s birthday!!!......I cant believe my baby is turning 4…….wow…..I have been a daddy for so long…I think im ready for number two…..Stephanie told me if I have another child, she is going to put me on child support to make sure she get her cut…aint that about a b-!!!...........now I have to figure out what to get her…..I’m excited about it because for the first time in a month, I will actually have a paycheck!!!.....you may be asking yourself, “what do you mean?”…..LONG STORY……..but God is good and I have had provision for this month…it has been rough though…….

I cant talk about it specifically…..for confidential reasons…but I received some very exciting news at work today…….it was a blessing and I am so happy right now…when my Operations Manager called me in her office, I was nervous……by the time I left her office, I had to go outside and give God the glory………I thank him so much…he is teacher me how to be a diligent worker and not to complain……now if I can take that into Essential Entertainment…..easier said than done……..

Folks need to stop getting mad when they text me in the middle of the day and I don’t respond……HELLO!!!!!....IM AT WORK MORON!!!!...........

DON’T FORGET ABOUT TOMORROW NIGHT!!!!.....ROUND TWO OF DJ-LADY JA-ROQ’S OPEN MIC SHOWCASE!!!........BRING YOUR BUTTS TO MURPHYS PLACE!!!!...9410 WALNUT STREET IN NORTH DALLAS….LOCATED ACROSS FROM RICHLAND COLLEGE………DOORS OPEN AT 9…SIGN UP STARTS AT 9…SHOW STARTS AT 10…….THIS IS A MUST BE EVENT!!!.....IT IS THE BEST OF THE BEST SO BRING YOU’RE A-GAME……..

…..AND DON’T FORGET ABOUT MS KITTY’S BIRTHDAY BASH THIS SATURDAY AT ROLLS ROYCE…..OFF SKILLMAN STREET…..IF YOU HAVENT BEEN TO A PRETTY KITTY PARTY, YOU ARE SO MISSING OUT!!!!!!..........

Almost forgot……..happy valentine’s day!!!!.....eventually, this holiday will become non-existent….that is my dream……..it leaves involved chicks hungry for gifts and single chicks emotionally wrecked……..men are doomed on this day like the third day of a missed cycle…….but until then, I will mourn peacefully………

Well lets get to it….im about to leave very shortly….but for now…..Rika’s Quote of the Day……………

“Darkness can not drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate can not drive out hate; only love can do that.”

This is a quote from the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

Well I am so out of here……shout out to Allure Entertainment for putting on an awesome weekend…….lets make this world crumble at our knees fam!!.......I want to shout out all my followers on BlogSpot: www.spaceshipohayses.blogspot.com and also to anyone that has downloaded the album……..if you haven’t, I understand your loyalty………

I'M WHAT DAT IS NICCA!!

I don’t know how this is going to work…….im tired, im crunk, im sleepy, im hungry, and its snowing……for All Star Weekend…….how are you all doing today?.....hope you all are safe this weekend…..I must say that now because I don’t even know if I will blog again this weekend……it is my intention……but we know how I get when things are crazy……..and my free time is going to be very limited……..

Hot show last night at Carpe Diem….it is so funny how cats always think they get robbed when they don’t win…now last night was by crowd votes…..if you didn’t bring enough people…OR…..your people didn’t cheer for you, that’s your fault…….if you lose because people don’t cheer for you, that’s your fault……its amazing how grown people act like kids when they don’t get there way…..and then they want you to care about them……that’s one thing myself as well as industry cats look at…..are you a whiner?......these cats out here with Kanye-it is……….sometimes you just don’t win……hell, I never get in the competitions and I think I would wreck everybody in Dallas!!!!........

Yeah I said it…..sometimes I have to remind folks I’m and artist as well…..don’t let this hosting thing fool you……..God just blessed me to be abundantly talented……

Now speaking of whiners and complainers….last night we had a 19 year old artist come out and perform…his name was…….

****SPECIAL REPORT!!!! ALSACE WIL LBE AT MURPHY’S THIS TUESDAY!!!....THE DOCTOR FINALLY RELEASED HER!!!!...THANK GOD!!!********

His name was 20/20……and he was blind……now of course he came to win, but do you think he has time to worry about crowd participation…..the young man was excellent……..and he is blessed….he was there with mom and friends…….we mope about so many things that don’t matter….he is just blessed to be able to have some of his senses that work……after seeing that, who are we to complain about anything……

You know what’s crazy??.......how so many artist call me during the day……and then they ask that one question…”what you doing?”……IM AT WORK!!!......oh my bad…but then they keep talking….its cool if you don’t know…but some of yall know I have a corporate…….and I need to keep my job……I guess its part of my work.....I love it though…rather have them call then not…….then I wouldn’t be as important…….

FUNNY HOWFOLKS CAN CALL YOU ABOUT NEGATIVE THINGS BUT WHEN SOMETHING IS NEEDED FOR GROWTH, THERE IS NO RESPONSE!!..........IT IS DISTURBING TO KNOW THAT PEOPLE THAT SAY THEY GOT LOVE FOR YOU REALLY DON’T…….OH I GUESS THAT’S THAT “I GOT YOUR BACK” SYNDROME…………

I am so ready to go home…..but before I go, I do have a quote…..Rika hasn’t been at work the past few days and I hope she is alright…….but Joyia receives quotes as well…..and I really like them…and I decided to have a substitute…..

“Reach high, for stars lie hidden in your soul. Dream deep. For every dream proceeds the goal.”

Shout out to my girl Wyze……she is doing better after the sudden passing of her cousin.....your prayers mean a lot to her……and last night, she won the $500 contest at Carpe Diem……she broke down and cried and you could just feel everything she has been going through…….it was an awesome experience……

One more hour to go!!

Love yall!!!

SPOILED MILK IN THE FRESH FOODS SECTION

Boy what a day!!!.....how are you all doing?......don’t ask me because I don’t know……..but I guess I am ready…for the rest of the week……..All Star…and God has made it so I will have something to do everyday!!!.......wow!!!.....and then work?......and sleep?.......not going to happen……..but its what I want to do….I am so ready for it…….got some things to get off my mind…….and some things I am going to keep inside…….

TONIGHT AND TOMORROW I WILL BE AT CARPE DIEM HOSTING ALL STAR CELEBRITY EVENTS!!!!...........YOU DON’T WANT TO MISS THESE!!!......1301 MAIN STREET RIGHT NEXT TO THE SKYE BAR!!!........ALOT OF GUEST WILL BE IN THE BUILDING….ALLURE ENTERTAINMENT WILL BE IN THE BUILDING…AND OF COURSE, ESSENTIAL ENTERTAINMENT WILL BE IN THE BUILDING!!!......DOORS OPEN AT 9……GET THERE EARLY…..IT WILL BE AN EXTRAVANGANZA!!!!.........

THIS FRIDAY, SPACESHIP OHAYSES WILL BE AT THE “GARDEN OF EDEN” CELEBRITY BOWILING EVENT AT USA BOWL AND LOUNGE OFF 35 AND COMPOSITE!!.....THIS IS EVENT IS HOSTED BY KEBN RADIO!!!.......TICKETS ARE ONLY $35……….FROM 8-12……YES, I WILL BE PERFORMING……GROWN AND SEXY WILL BE IN THE BUILDING……

I will give more information on my weekend events probably tomorrow…or you can hit me back for details…….as you can see, im trying to rub elbows with big stars….time for games are over son!!!....C’MON SON!!!!!...........

So we received the final stats at work today….and I did end up #1 last month!!...WHOO-HOO!!!.....im very excited about it as you all know due to my December…..I sucked!!.......so I had to bounce back and make sure I showed them it was only a glitch………

Question for my fellas?.......how do you know when a woman is your soul mate??......not just someone you want to be with, but someone that was made for you…..actually made from you??........and why do we deny it when it’s right in front of our face??..........

Why did I mess up my knee last night……I have a recommendation…if you are drunk and not able to completely hold yourself together, don’t scare a bouncer!!!......they may push you off balance and mess up one of your extremities!!!.......I woke up in so much pain…its getting better but I know 15 drinks is out of my limit……

Speaking of being drunk!!!....I had so much fun last night!!!!!.......its really good to see people that don’t come often anymore….Duwan J was in the building….JaVon and Misti Blue came out….my man Drama even showed his face…….I had a ball!!.....you all make sure you come out and support the movement…….I don’t know what open mic you all are going to, but ask anybody……(that’s not a hater)…….and they will tell you…..EVERY TUESDAY, MURPHY’S IS THAT PLACE TO BE!!!..........


So I was looking at my calendar today…..26 days until my birthday…..30 years old….damn!!...I know right…God is so good……if you would have placed a bet on that happening 15 years ago, most people would have taken the under…..its amazing that God has allowed me to grow into the man I am today….and I’m still growing....that’s the fun part…..knowing he is not done with me……so its looking like I am going to have a party the whole weekend of March 4th-7th………yeah, im starting on a Thursday……..and on the 8th…not sure if you will see me at work…….

And my daughter’s birthday is the 22nd this month…..can’t believe she is about turn 4……..yeah she is getting so big…and it’s so cool…..until the birthday party……..

Well, we are about to have a quick meeting…don’t know why at 8 at night…but hopefully it will let my day go by faster………so without further ado……Rika’s Quote of the Day……….

“God gives nothing to those that keep their arms crossed.”

This is an old African proverb…..you have to be willing to receive the blessings he has for you…….don’t be scared…He is the Almighty after all………

Major league love to my girl Santos…..she is at Pappadeux’s celebrating her birthday as we speak…wish I could be there but of course I am at work…….happy birthday to you…I love you like a sister…and thank you for supporting me………

Love yall!!!

HE NUMBER TWO'D ON MY ONES

ITS TUESDAY PEOPLE!!....AND YOU KNOW WHAT THAT MEAN!!!.........IT GOES DOWN AT MURPHYS PLACE TONIGHT……WE WILL BE GIVING AWAY ANOTHER $250 TO THE HOTTEST MC IN DALLAS….9410 WALNUT STREET..ACROSS FROM RICHLAND COLLEGE……..DOORS OPEN AT 9…SHOW STARTS AT TEN……IT DJ LADY JA-ROQ’S OPEN MIC SHOWCASE…ONLY THE BEST OF THE BEST COME ROUND HERE!!!........

How are you all doing today??......myself…I can honestly say I feel horrible……haven’t had a good night sleep this week....haven’t made it to work on time….and I have so much to do….the more you have to do, the more important sleep is…and I am learning that the hard way……why haven’t I been able to sleep you ask?........I have no clue……its not like I’m up playing bejeweled all night……..I got the highest score on my friend list…….just think I am worrying about taking over the world and not knowing how anymore…..my lines are getting blurry…….

They say its hard out here for a pimp…nah….its hard out here for a man trying to do things the right way……..and being in the entertainment game is so much like politics…….we hear that saying but some people don’t really understand…….smiling in people faces you don’t like…….having to answer asinine questions…..doing things you don’t want to do….I told my Ja-Roq today I need a vacation…but I cant go anywhere….I got too many people depending on me……I have to smile when I want to frown….laugh when I want to cry and work when I want to sleep……and then you do all that and still be on the bottom of the emotional totem pole…….I was asked if I have mourned over my grandmother yet…hell I don’t have time……..

I cooked last night though…..lasagna….salad….garlic bread…..and banana pudding……yeah it wasn’t a lot but it did the trick…I need to learn to cook more because being immobile means I cant go grab lunch or even go home like I would want to……I don’t get that pit stop to recharge my batteries…..I’m just here....all day……looking at the animals in the zoo……..eventually, if you stay in the zoo long enough, you will start to smell like the animals…….

Now if a cross eyed person is talking and you answer because you thought they were looking at you….should I feel bad? Or should they have better eye contact??........

And why is it before women have “the surgery”, they will wear anything and not care about how they look under their clothes or out in public…but oh, once they have “the surgery”, now they become all insecure about their bodies???......isn’t that the point of toning…….getting fat sucked out of you does not automatically make you fine…you still have to work at it!!!!......

And be careful about people that say they “got your back”……they may want to be close so they can stab you first…….when they are behind you, they hope you don’t turn around and see what they are really doing…..because if they had your front, you would truly know what they are capable of……..

These aren’t quotes…just thoughts I have…..and why do women borrow other women shoes…I know they are not yours because you look like a size 7…those shoes are a 9…….why all the extra space??...is that a safety valve……or do you hide contraband there?......or did your feet have “the surgery” too?........I’m just asking……..

Don’t forget about Carpe Diem tomorrow…Spaceship Ohayses will definitely be in the building for that……1301 Main Street….doors open at 9……please come on out…we will be giving away $500 to the hottest artist…WAIT A MINUTE??!!!...WHY AM I HOSTING AND NOT PERFORMING??!!

AND THIS FRIDAY I WILL BE PEERFORMING AT THE GARDEN OF EDEN CELEBRITY BOWLING EVENT AT USA BOWL & LOUNGE…TICKETS ARE $35…….IF YOU NEED SOME, GET AT ME….YOU CAN ALSO BUY THEM THROUGH PAYPAL…JUST TELL EM SPACESHIP SENT YA!!!....I CANT WAIT FOR THIS EVENT…BOWLING AND PERFORMING…NOW ALL IT NEEDS IS ALL YOU CAN EAT CHITLINGS!!!.........

I don’t know if I ever mentioned this before……but I hate forwards…..I am not sending a text to 50 people in 5 minutes just so Jesus wont strike me down…..he sent that to you…not me…don’t put your burdens on Shipper!!!........

Okay….almost done for today…..this aint cool staying so late…..I’m ready to go!!!!....but first……Rika’s Quote of the Day…………….

“Hate is too great a burden to bear. It injures the hater more than it injures the hated.”

A quote from Coretta Scott King…….don’t spend your time holding grudges….they are heavy…make you tired and weary……


I need everyone to pray for Essential Entertainment’s own Wyze……she tragically lost her cousin yesterday and we need all your prayers for her during this time…..they were very close and she was going to see them soon…….keep her lifted in this time of need……

Please become a follower…… www.spaceshipohayses.blogspot.com ………..this won’t last forever……….

IT GOES DOWN EASIER WHEN ITS WET

Oh it’s Monday……All Star Week……..are you ready??......how is everyone doing on this gloomy Monday….why does it seem like it just will not stop raining……….and I heard the temperature is going to drop to 27 degrees tonight…..but find something or someone to cuddle with people…….how was everybody’s weekend?........mine was pretty boring….watched some football game yesterday…cant even remember who was playing…and trying to get this Black History Program all in order,,,,,

You know its hard being the boss of friends…..yesterday, we during our meeting, we had a few come in late…..and I flew off the handle because they totally disregarded what we were doing before their entrance…and I know I was wrong…but aren’t we all grown??......should I have to raise my voice to get people’s attention that I once had??.......and they voice their concerns…im trying to be a good leader and I have to make tough decisions as well as voice my displeasure about situations…….I have to get better at sounding reasonable though…..we have to go through these storms now…which I feel is better…..instead of letting them boil until the wrong time emerges…….

Okay just saw something on the Toyota recall….now my question is….do they pay people back for the money they already spent on this broken down vehicle??.....I don’t feel its right that I have to put down a down payment and all and then you tell me you need my truck back…WTF??.....give me my money back then….and if I don’t, I risk injury or even death….talk about a rock and a hard place………

WHO DAT??....said the saints were going to lose??...me, of course…..I thought Peyton’s Manning’s composure would certainly be an equalizer for New Orleans’ stiff defense……it wasn’t….and am I the only one that realized who was going to win the game after the on-side kick to start the second half…..it was certainly a whoa moment!!......the Saints put it all on the line…..the Colts were still reserved and wanted to hold the ball….yesterday was not the day for that….and when they did get some umph behind them, what happened?.....Manning threw one of the biggest INTs in his career…but I will say, the Saints played like champions…and we all know everything that city went through these past few years……so congrats to them and the city of New Orleans……

And please, just because you are from Louisiana, don’t start cheering for them now….coming to work in Mardi Gras beads and eating gumbo for lunch…..I have been talking to the same people for 2 years and all of a sudden, they have an accent……we got more “babies” in here that a delivery room….geesh!!..........

DON’T FORGET ABOUT TOMORROW PARTY PEOPLE!!!....WE ARE STARTING ALL STAR WEEKEND OFF RIGHT AT MURPHYS!!!........ITS DJ LADY JA-ROQ’S OPEN MIC SHOWCASE…..9410 WALNUT STREET ACROSS FROM RICHLAND COLLEGE….DOORS OPEN AT 9…SHOW STARTS AT TEN….AND I HAVE SOME SPECIAL GUEST COMING THROUGH!!!..........I NEED ALL ARTIST THAT MAY WANT TO PERFORM FOR ALL STAR WEEKEND TO BE IN ATTENDANCE….ITS UP TO YOU!!.....$250 IS ON THE LINE BABY!!!!........

WEDNESDAY I WILL BE AT CARPE DIEM DOING MY THING AS WELL……..1301 MAIN STREET IN DOWNTOWN DALLAS…RIGHT NEXT TO THE SKYE BAR….ALLURE ENTERTAINMENT WILL BE IN THE BUILDING AND THEY WILL BE HAVING A LOT OF SPECIAL GUEST THERE!!.....

THIS FRIDAY I WILL BE AT USA BOWL OFF 35 AND COMPOSITE FOR A CELEBRITY BOWLING EVENT HOSTED BY KEBN RADIO AND SMOOV Q ENT………TICKETS ARE $35 PRESALE AND IF YOU WANT OT MINGLE AND HAVE SOME FUN, YOU NEED TO BE THERE…WHY GO TO A CLUB, PAY 40 DOLLARS AND DON’T EVEN GET TO SEE THE CELEBRITY….SAME SONGS, SAME PEOPLE, AND SAME BROKENESS WHEN YOU LEAVE….MAKES SENSE DON’T IT!!......GET YOUR MONEY WORTH WITH YA BOY SPACESHIP OHAYSES!!!...............

Maybe eating a box of donuts and a half gallon of milk is not a good idea……..

Okay okay okay….ima get out your face for now…….but before I go….lets get it!!......Rika’s Quote of the Day…………

“Greatness occurs when your children love you, your critics respect you, and you have a peace of mind.”

This is a quote from Quincy Jones……….

Special shout out to my girl Booth…..I am so upset I missed your party…happy birthday to you and I wish you many many more………

PERFORMING LIVE!!! AT A DEAF MAN'S CLUB!!

How are you doing today?......boy I have had a roller coaster ride these last 24 hours……got home from work yesterday with an eviction notice on my door…now I figure some of you are used to it…..and know how long you have until they pad lock your door…..I don’t…and I don’t want to know……but yes I have had it happen to me……not a good feeling to know everything behind that door is gone…..but I was able to get my rent paid…….and the weight is off my shoulders….for now……

“Soon, you need to realize what you need and not what you want”

No…that’s not a Rika quote ladies and gentleman…that’s a Stephanie quote…she told me this as she was bringing me back to work from lunch and paying rent……and it got me thinking…..am I really like this?......do I search for what I want and not what I know I need??........do I…for all intensive purposes…denying myself of happiness and therefore, lying to myself…..am I my own worse enemy??.......I never give Stephanie any credit for being smart…….or understanding this thing called life…but like my grandfather said….

“Even a blind squirrel can find a nut”

I hate the word luck……I believe its origin will tie directly into the origins of the word Lucifer……..I believe in blessings….being lucky means that you cant do it on your own…”Man, you are so lucky!!”…..no im not……im blessed….my talent is consistent…….my Father watches over me and gave me the ability to do the things that I am capable of…He gives me the strength to continue……..and push for greater journeys…….is fortunate the same as lucky?.......are the intentions of these words the same??........should I be upset or appalled when someone calls me lucky???........because you will rarely hear the term fortunate when it comes to a success……..

“aint nothing slick to an oil can….except a monkey wrench.”

I am learning to not feel sorry for who I am…..do I think I could be a better man?.......of course…what man doesn’t feel that way??......if he truly fits the description of a man and not just a male……..and I know that I have many flaws….some major and some minor……I am seeing a horrible pattern though….its like a mental war……with more than two enemies…..I have the old mentality of the hustler….growing up thinking no one cares about me and its survival of the fittest……I have the mature man that feels holding his tongue is nothing but a hindrance to both parties involved…….the party animal and entrepreneur dreamer that wants to go out on a limb, quit my job and ride this wave that is Essential Entertainment…….the hurt little boy that always wanted to be accepted....and the Christian young man that was groomed for this life by his grandparents…….

“forgive them Lord…..for they no not what they do.”

Why is it so easy to transfer negative energy but not positive?..........why do we make it a point to be suspicious instead of receptive??..........we question without accepting answers…….we say we love people but take them at their very worst…….life is crazy isn’t it??......I think we spend more time defending our consciousness than anything else…….we desire to live this fabulous life but continue to feed our mental with the nots, the donts, the cants, and the wont haves……but yet, we love the Lord…….we love our mates and our friends…..we just don’t trust that they love us in return…….

I have no clue the reason behind this blog……I just felt like letting my fingers think………I have a Rika Quote but I want you all to marinate on this today…….I feel a lot better and I guess that is the truly purpose of these blogs and the reason I write them………sometimes we put a microscope on our own lives for no reason……everyone goes through things…no one is perfect…but…we all strive for perfection……..yet adversity detours us from our greatness and we get frustrated…I get frustrated……

I need yall to pray for my big sis Lisa P…….her boyfriend was in a car accident today and when she called me, she had no clue of his status…..I have not heard from her since but I want her to be in you all prayers…….

And please become a follower of the blog today…… www.spaceshipohayses.blogspot.com

LACE FRONTS AND GET A FREE FOREHEAD

Hello to everybody…how are you doing today??......I am extremely sleepy....not tired....but sleepy….im kind of mentally drained today…..feel like my cycle is coming on…..and yes…men have cycles…..we just don’t bleed…..one more day until the weekend and I honestly cant wait……the way its looking, I will not have another free day until the 15th……and of course, that’s after All-Star Weekend………..

Im at work right now but I will make sure I send you all a schedule of my events for next week…..hopefully, I will have everything confirmed by tomorrow night so that you all can plan what you are going to wear coming out to see me……..yeah, I know you all will be in the mix…..and so will I!!............

So last night I went to Rack Daddy’s…two things that really caught my attention…..the first…my mans Double and I were talking to this guy and he asked, “What’s Gem been up to?”……we both looked at each other and I had to tell him….”I don’t know. Ask me what I have been up to?”…….meaning I cant speak about what another person is doing…nor am I worried about it……it wasn’t a shot but if you want to know what somebody is up to, get in contact with them…im not going to lie for em……..

The second thing I noticed was Throwdown Sam……..now most of you may know, he is a DJ on one of the local radio stations, K 104……well last night, he spent most of the time on the mic giving out credit….TO HIMSELF…..about how he put people on…and how he was the first one to spin people music…….it was disgusting…….as you all know, I host shows and for me, it seemed mighty rude to continue to praise yourself as if these acts could not get on without you…….when I go out and I am not hosting and performing, I pay attention to others……it’s the only way I know how to become a better entertainer……

Okay…..today is the first day of being irritable about not having a car……ugh!!!..........

What’s up with women and extra shoes on the driver side of their car……some people keep extra napkins…..some keep an extra shirt ...but 35 pairs of shoes??.....flip flops…stilettos……house shoes……loafers…..shoes upon shoes upon shoes….now I see why they drive the way they do……they cant get to the break!!!............

I don’t feel good right now…..I don’t know why….I think it may be a glitch in the matrix somewhere…I guarantee I will find out later……..something is awry……I don’t like having this feeling all the time……I hope its just that cycle thing…….

So I heard the Super Bowl is this weekend…….lol……I am not even trippin on it…….my thinking is, this may be the perfect time for me to sleep……everybody will be doing their own thing…partying and watching the game…..I may just fix me some tacos and chill out……I know I’m lame…but what exactly is the Super Bowl doing for me?...and next week, I already know, sleep will not be an option……..

Have you ever sat back and said you wanted a child?.......how many people actually plan those sorts of things?....hmmmmmmm…….

Word to the wise from the wise……haters come in all shapes and sizes…..don’t be surprised when someone you are cool with turn their back on you….its there nature……even a snake can convince you to eat an apple…………

TONIGHT!!...FOR ALL ARTIST……..ALLURE ENT WILL BE HOLDING A COMPETITION TO PERFORM FOR ALL STAR WEEKEND….$500 GRAND PRIZE…..COME TONIGHT TO REGISTER AND ITS FREE FOR ALL ARTIST…..CARPET DIEM……1301 MAIN STREET….NEXT TO THE SKYE BAR……BE THERE BEFORE 11 TO REGISTER…..NOT 11:01…….NOT 11:15…..THIS IS YOUR CHANCE TO PERFORM ON THE BIGGEST WEEKEND OF THIS YEAR!!!.......HOLLA AT ME FGOR MORE INFORMATION!!.....

Well I don’t feel like writing anymore….im actually ready to go home…im sleepy…so without further ado….Rika’s Quote of the Day………………

“Success is to be measured not so much by the position that one has reached in life as by the obstacles which he has overcome while trying to succeed.”

This quote is from the great Booker T Washington……………..

Well I am out of here…..shouts out to my fam Richard Ruth and MJ of Allure Entertainment…..I will be in the building tonight…….

Love yall!!!

HE DID WHAT? TO WHO? NAH!!!

Have no fear!!.......Spaceship Ohayses, the Incredible is here!!!.......how are you all doing today?.......I was doing well, but now I have a terrible headache……and I cant wait to get home……….but the day has been okay…due to the circumstances…….its Wednesday, and I am excited that there is only two more days in the work week……….at least work up here…….

So I get to work early today and…..boy!!...folks cant hold water with an ocean…….I am told they are laying off folks left and right….AGAIN…..come to find out, its our locations in Charlotte and Knoxville……now up here, they are doing some layoffs…….the most significant is with Team Leaders…….but my department doesn’t have anything to worry about…so they say……I’m not worried because I know at that appointed time…if it ever happens…….God will have me prepared for the next step in my life…….

I want to say now….THANK YOU ALL FOR COMING OUT LAST NIGHT!!........I love it when its packed like a “regular club”……its an amazing feeling and the atmosphere was off the chain……..when it’s a good night, I can drink and not get drunk……and that’s what I experienced……congratulations to Derek Daider for winning the $250 showcase!!....great showing from Wyze, Arkansas Bo, Monye’, P.O.V, and Na$ty Boi……….it is because of you all that we are the longest running open mic in Dallas………now I need to make sure my judges get there on time…….

And I would like to say this now to all my perspective artists and those wanting to come perform…..THE SHOW IS NOT RIGGED!!.......that’s a funny statement even to type because I don’t like people that much to play favorites…….I just want an awesome show….one thing that I don’t think I can make any clearer is my appreciation for this art called music…….its not about who is my friend…who makes good music……now I know there are haters out there…and some of you are reading this right now….”BIG UPS…TO ALL MY HATERS!!.......but its cool….im learning how to deal with you……don’t discourage people because you are not winning....step your game up!!...I promise, rewards will be earned, not given………

I think my headache comes from me being hungry………..

Finally got the flyers done for the Black History Program…..and I am getting more and more excited……I know I have to stay focus and make sure I have my game face on…..being a leader means people are following….if I fall off course, how can I tell someone else that they need to stay on it…..being in a management position is very hard…but it teaches a lot of life lessons…..I’m learning how not to be so hard on people…..its difficult but I know with God I will learn the right values and the correct buttons to push…….

If I don’t call you, don’t text me asking if I miss you??......whatsupwitdat?!!!??.......

Probably going to hit Rack Daddy’s tonight….even without a vehicle, people are still hitting me up making sure I am staying in the loop…..its difficult, especially not having your own…but God makes a way out of no way…..and I am truly humbled, grateful and appreciative for all that have helped me……..

Why Stephanie call me and tell me how much its going to be for Jayla’s birthday party…..she sure knows how to make a man’s day…but I’m not trippin…that’s my baby and I want her to have an excellent party…its crazy because I don’t ever remembering having a birthday party growing up…..I think that is one of the best things that could have happened to my daughter……having a family that does those things….its hard for me to get in the mood for holidays and special occasions but not Stephanie’s family…….they celebrate the 5th of August just because………but it has loosened up the tough side of me….there is no greater feeling then seeing my baby smiling……

Well im gone for the day…..here it is….another Black History edition of……..Rika’s Quote of the Day……….

“The battles that count aren’t the ones for gold medals. The struggles within yourself-the invisible, inevitable battles inside all of us-that’s where it’s at.”

That quote was from the great Jesse Owens…….

I want yall to pray for my girl Alsace….she got into a car accident last Thursday…..she is okay…..but prayers are definitely needed for her recovery……..and my girl Kaydee………where are my science lessons!!!!!!!..........

Love yall!!!

PAPER BAGS FILLED WITH BUSTED WATER BALLOONS

Okay women….if you don’t want to wear your heels all day at work…….and I have two questions here…..why would you wear them…..and why would you not bring house shoes….I just saw a “woman” walking around barefoot…….at work…I know I have coughed on the floor…..wasted food…spit even some meat that was in my teeth…but yet, somewhere, she doesn’t even consider the results of wanting to be like a disciple…….totally disgusting…….

How are you all today?...I am feeling swell…tonight is a big night for me…….every Tuesday is a big night….but tonight we crown another winner of our $250 showcase!!!......

Before I continue…why this dude got on a see through shirt? ……..and doesn’t even have the decency to have a t-shirt or a wife beater on…nothing!!.......I tell you….folks like to be the center of attention……

OKAY….BACK TO WHATS IMPORTANT!!!!....ITS GOING DOWN TONIGHT……DJ LADY JA-ROQ’S OPEN MIC SHOWCASE…SIX OF DALLAS’ BEST TO ROCK THE HOUSE…MONYE’……NA$TY BOI…..P.O.V……DEREK DAIDER…..WYZE….ARKANSAS BO…..DOORS OPEN AT 9…SHOW STARTS AT TEN………WE ARE AT MURPHYS PLACE…9410 WALNUT STEET IN NORTH DALLAS….LOCATED ACROSS FROM RICHLAND COLLEGE….I WANT TO SEE EVERYONE IN THE BUILDING TONIGHT!!........

So we hear a lot about how men do women wrong…..and some even think that men don’t get hurt….but how many of you listened to Steve Harvey this morning??.....okay, check it out….this woman has four kids…..not by her boyfriend….he loves her and her kids…he makes six figures…….he asked her for another child….she said no…he broke up with her…at her parents 50th wedding anniversary, she tells him she’s pregnant…which she isn’t…he asked he to marry him…..she has been faking the whole time!!!......now she is going to tell him she had a miscarriage…..a miscarriage of justice this is!!...if I was him, I would so leave her and them kids…….and take my ring back……don’t think its just men that’s trifling……its some women out there you need to be afraid of………

I raised a child before….for four years until I found out it wasn’t mine…not a great feeling I can tell you that………

LOUIE’S!......LOUIE’S!........LOUIE’S!.........LOUIE’S……….

Why is the more sleep I get, the more tired I am………maybe I should just live off these 4 hours I get and be happy….six?....oh I am done for the day……..I can try to get up…try to act like I am fresh and ready to work…but in about an hour, im done………

Why this woman behind just fart….no I don’t mean poot…and I don’t mean pass gas…….SHE FARTED!!!!!......LOUD TOO!!!!......you know it’s loud when you hear it and you think it must have been something else…….and then gonna talk loud to try to cover up the sound……it aint gonna cover up the smell!!!!!........

Getting more followers on the BlogSpot!!!....nice…………just a few more…well maybe about a hundred……..two hundred would be ideal……… www.spaceshipohayses.blogspot.com …………………….it don’t take that long!!!......

I worked super hard last night…..and made some connects....you know we can use things like facebook for fun or for business…I am now learning how to maximize my business opportunities…by the end of the year, I want at least a million friends…….wow!!!

Okay, I am about to go……here it is …….Rika’s Quote of the Day………………..

“I have learned over the years that when one’s mind is made up, this diminishes fear”

The quote today was from the late Rosa Parks…marinate on it…..what do you think……

Shout outs to all the competitors tonight at the Showcase Showdown…felt like Price is Right right there…………I hope you all will do a tremendous job……..

Love yall!!!!

HANG A SIGN UP ON THE DOOR..........

sorry I'm late folks......left work early and had some things to do so I am now just getting to the money.......how are you all doing today???.......right now i am very frustrated....I'm trying to send out this text blast but my phone is so cheap.....it takes forever....i need to upgrade so i can do it more frequently.........keep people updated with all that's going on......but truly i haven't been doing much..........

this Black History program is consuming me right now....and that's a good thing.....now since i truly have a team behind me, its making me stand up and be a man.....i have to make more concrete decisions now..........today i had an epiphany...now i see how my boss feels......he has to say things to me and make decisions that he may not want to....or agree with......all he can hope for is that the person receiving it........in particular, me, looks at his heart and not just his mouth....even in a giving world, he is not going to sacrifice his job for mine........

things are pulling together and i forecast and very good turn out......

this phone is killing me!!...i am only on the D's.....but i have to multi-task............

i think what makes it so fun its that i love the burden on me........i love when my people stay on my butt about doing things......i know it may be funny to hear, but i feel i am one of those people that enjoy gratification and people paying attention to my work........don't micro manage me.....just keep me in line.....i know i have some of the ADHD stuff............

and my service in my house sucks..........

so we got the final "unofficial" stats today at work......i still was showing as #1....i pray i make it.......i really would like that accomplishment...........not just for the money, but for the opportunity to say, "I TOLD YOU SO!!"........i was been doubted last month....or December rather.......and i felt they didn't realize how much of a toll it set on me.....but I'm back with a vengeance baby!!!..........

for the first time in a while, I had Jayla all weekend.......and it was so much fun......but wow she talks alot.....i mean ALOT.......Friday she came over with her best friend....and i wouldn't blame her friend for being addicted to coffee by now.....Jayla worked her nerves......and she just sat there...got bullied and played.....cleaned her room and everything....thank God for that.........and then Saturday, Jayla was on a mission......a mission to make my ear bleed....and you know how you think, "okay, i play with her now, she will get tired and go play alone."......NO NO NO.....she wants to play until she drops........party like a rockstar?...nah......party like Jayla.........and then Sunday morning....why don't her momma tell her Chick Fil-A is not open for Sundays.......not only do i have to tell her no, i have to explain it through the cries...now daddy mean........daddy don't run Chick Fil-A??!!!....better get one of these microwavable pancakes and chill out!!.....Steph!!!......COME GET HER!!!.........

but it was fun...and I'm happy Stephanie was able to get some much needed rest.............

well i still need to finish these texts.....i think i am on the K's now......but before I go........Rika's Quote of the Day................

"The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in the moments of comfort, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy."

that is a quote from Dr. Martin Luther King Jr........hey!!.....it is Black History Month!!.......better hurry and celebrate....we only have 27 more days!!!!........

shout out to my homegirl Kimesha........I'm happy to see you are well......how is the family.........and my bro Quentin......i still got my magnet!!!!...................

oh yeah...check this out!!.......
