Make It Happen: The Official Blog

Kevin I don't know much about the hip hop generation I personally listen to jazz but as I was browsing the net I saw a very handsome man with a distinctive appearance that caught my eye this message is totally different from the ones that you normally receive I'm sure but hey you can't blame a sister from recognizing a handsome man however she chooses to do so RIGHT?

 
Hello Kevin, I am so glad that you are interacting with others who are trying their best to make it in the music biz. I have been trying very hard to make it. I am an aspiring Gospel singer & actress. I will be in my 3rd play here in Chicago in January'06. I have no real experienec or contacts within the Industry. We all know it's not what you know ,but who you know. I would like to be given an opportunity to sing before the "movers & shakers" in the biz. I can't go on American Idol because of the age limitations 29 no older, i'm 33. What do I need to do ? Where do I need to go?  I would like some info & advice on how to make this happen. I would really like to make my family proud and take some of the financial burdens away. I believe that withGod all things are possible ! I also believe that your blog is not a mistake and that this is the year that things will happen for those who are the underdogs with no contacts but whose hearts are in the right place and God is going to strategically place them at the right place & time. Oh Kevin make it happen !

Kevin,
I found your journal, listened to all entries, congratulations.  "Give" was the word for the day. "Give" truley is a powerful act it has a lot of implications, as in love you can love wrong and give wrong. Discernment allows what you've given to never stop giving.
You have the opportunity to reach so many people but I wanted to know if you know how many people you can reach by touching and agreeing and making a difference in their lives.  Our homes,hearts, and families ache for it. There is a realness and truth to you and just wonder how many of those listening to you everyday would you sit down and share a meal with or even how many broken homes and hearts and communities would you put your hands on and give your time.  I challenge you to go to the next... people listen to your journal to be a superstar and have the bling but you pointed out 1 in a million, and I bet you that most are chasing a dream to escape a nightmare, escape lifes strongholds, making it sometimes becomes a bandaid that'll cover hurt, sickness or illness this is why people sell dope to his neighbor to pay for studio and rob to buy tracks and end up in jail for sentences created just for our people.  Kevin, I'm glad you made it. I teach people how to make a way for generations to come, how to break the curses passed down.  What's wrong with music that deals with life, you seem to be spiritual, do you think you're the only one, we are spirits first and carnel last, wish you'd make a difference where these kids are.  Unless they want to rap they aren't gong to listen to this but they'll listen to FM and MTV you need to get a show on TVONE or MTV and you need a forum that gives, and gives, and gives to the point it changes somebody's forever and not just their title or income...  Now, I wish I could speak to you...please email me at jchouteau@uschamber.com
I just need to hollar at you... can you "give" me two minutes... You started this on my birt
