Eyes Burning Red! See the Fire Within!
Wow. What an amazing week it has been. The Rundown, Monday I perform mindblowing freestyles at SinSin and ride the vibe with the XO band. Plus I made a new friend Eduardo at the EO Agency, and catch up with worldwide festival producer Yona Backer, super entrepreneurJeff Kohutka, and my boy the Essence of cool Trini Rich at L'Elephant off of 1st and 1st. Followed by The Good Spot @ 105 Riv, but that was just for ahot minute and to show my face went home early around 2:30AM (that party bumps til 4AM). That was just the night time! I was out working on deals all day for Urbindy Omnimedia and the finance company. Crazy stuff.
Tuesday: Came home, 4AM. Couldnt sleep, still energized, wrote my blog, began looking at the days work. Wrote letters to prospective clients and began planning for the private art sale on Thursday. Called Switzerland in the AM. Decent convo. Change clothes, wash up for the new day of business. Manage to make an eight foot window break using nothing but my mind! Not really though. Go in to the city, Harlem proper. Victory Square, poly with my man Africa Black. Talking about extending some custom business overseas. On to the next. Run in to my boy Illspokinn and Why-G over by Union Square. Visit Yoga to the people. Gotta get my kundalini aligned properly. Catch 10 indie shorts @ DROM and meet up with Tiff and S.Gilles Star Barber.
Wednesday: Go to help my best friend JP. Film a documentary on his family. COMPLETELY CRASH due to exhaustion and not having slept since SUNDAY NIGHT! Wake up, prep for Private Art Dealing at MoCADA. Run in to my homeboy Abdou Dia ON 125, who is a manager at YSL. Great folks. Meet up with a street cat selling a 30-Day Metrocard for a$40. I get him down to a DOLLAR-A-DAY! $30! Cant pass THAT up! Visit my homies who keep thnigs in order Ant Note and 'em. We build and link up on the next creamscheme for our team. Art fro mthe heart, media makers, MITs. Moguls In Trainin. FX large checks, direct effects, that's what's next. In the gym, in the board room and on the ave holding my weight and more!
Thursday: Woke up early! Wrote a blog! Conference called appointments for the Art show at MoCADA! Made it happen. Meet with Cannon at MoCADA. Make deals.Go to Note's studio for photoshoot part one. back to the lab. Get that rest
Friday: Woke up early AGAIN! Wrote this blog! And th beat dont stop you've gotta keep on! I feel like the living breathing definition of ambition. How do you feel? Let me know, good peoples!

I Know What I Want. DO YOU?
So here comes another day of me grinding away to achieve the fulfillment, my personal destiny.
Essentially, a brother like Lex has been doing his damnedest to achieve the realization of his entrepreneurial, spiritual, and mental growth. This is a daily practice, its not an intermittent type of hobby y'all success is a constant pursuit it DOES NOT HAPPEN BY HALVES. As Big Daddy Kane said... AINT NO HALF-STEPPIN'! ANd that was some of the best advice ever proffered in the history of hiphop.
So the moral of the story kids is to not only make your goals, but to make your life's work the attainment and continual pursuit of your best self! And NO its not just for you Mr.?Ms. Selfish. Its actually in the service of humanity and making this place called Earth just that much better for your having been here. You haven't got long so you'd better get crackin' each of our lives is a veritable nanosecond when placed within the context of the existence and history of life on earth and even more so in the cosmos at large. Here's the Point, good peoples!
YOU HAD BETTER GET YOUR REAR IN GEAR MAN! GET CRACKING! WHAT?! DO YOU THINK YOU'RE GONNA LIVE FOREVER? DO THE DAN THING TODAY NOW! PLAN IT AND GO FOR IT... AND DONT SPEND YOUR LIFE JUST PLANNING. THATS JUST SAD. JUST DO IT!
(I may as well throw in a shameless plug for Nike here as it seems that my piece today basically comes down to their well-known ubiquitous quote. I always have loved Nike's ad sensibility. So... Young & Rubicam! Holler at the Lexplosive One, man! This is the Lexplosive! Not the Salvation Army! Meanwhile back at the blog...)
Know what you want and go get it. Be Relentless. Thats it. (Hmmm now I sound like The Pursuit of Happyness. Oh well! There are worse charges to be guilty of, truly.)
Coming up next ON LEXPLOSIVE??? Confessions of an Insomniac Workaholic!
Holleration shall commence forthwith!
Stay Freshwitted, Good Peoples!
