Thinking of Quitting? Just "Knuck If You Buck!"

I haven't gotten lazy and stopped working out like I have in the past. I NEED to see this one through because Spring Break 2012 will be here before I know it. I've been getting the recommended daily dosage of 8 glasses of water a day by drinking out of a 2.2 Liter water bottle DAILY, and I exercise at least 3x a week. It should be 5 but I'm usually at school 2 days out of the week. My exercise regimen may change soon though. Whenever I need to stay focused with my workout, I usually play "Knuck if You Buck" by Crime Mob. That song gets me so hyped! I usually run on the treadmill or go hard lifting weights with this song - I love it! Since getting in shape is not the easiest thing in the world, just remember to find something that motivates you enough to keep you from quitting. I find my motivation.

Be There

New episodes of "On The Track: The Road to success will return to YouTube on Thursday, October 27, 2011. This is what you've all been waiting for, so spread the word.

Solo Star and Young Spade - Coming soon

oh yea. Give me like a week. 2 weeks tops.
Fast shouts to Chris Young for the graphic.

Another Sleepless Night

Typical of a college student right? Yea. So why am I still up? Procrastination at it's finest! I'm doing some studying for class tomorrow. And I still haven't even picked out what I'm wearing to school. I can't just wake up in the morning, grab something out the closet and say "I'm going to school looking like this" unless it's during finals time, cause nobody usually cares about looking fly because it's the end of the school term. But since that's not the case right now (since it's only September), I've got some work to do. I just felt like sharing.

I might rock these to school tomorrow (Air Jordan 3 Retro "True Blue")

or maybe these (Air Jordan 2 Retro "Collezione" or simply "Countdown Pack" edition)


We shall see. Oh and for those who don't know, I'm a sneaker addict, so I tend to build my outfit of the day around what sneakers I feel like wearing that day. I might feature my sneaker addiction in a future video of mine someday (hint, hint).

The Road to Spring Break 2012

Second post of the month, it looks like I'm off to a decent start of writing in here often, right? Well I'm only writing so I can have some written documentation that marks today as the day that I am officially starting what I'd like to call my "Road to Spring Break." Ever since spring 1999 (I was in the 5th grade), I've dreamed of spending my spring break much like the college coeds did on MTV each year, whether it was in Florida, Las Vegas, or somewhere in the Caribbean.

Some of my earliest MTV Spring Break memories from 1999 include:




However, since the start of my college career, two factors have always hindered me from enjoying my spring break MTV style, money and my weight. I am blessed to have a part time job that keeps money in my pocket from time to time, but I have a bit of a sneaker fetish that tends to drain that hard earned money from my pockets most of the time - my fault, I know. And I have always been big for my age. I have never had the "ideal male body" with bulging muscles, a chiseled chest, and a six pack of abs. That WILL change this year as I have chilled on buying sneakers excessively and I have started to get serious about losing weight by getting back in the gym and watching what I eat. I've also started to drink the recommended 8 glasses of water a day to flush my system out. Fat boys get no love. As a matter of fact let's be honest, none of us will ever date a model (Hinting a new song? Maybe). It's time for a change. Spring break is 5-6 months away, and I plan on being ready for it this year, MTV style!

Long time no see

I know it's been a minute, but I've been busy lately. School is back in session which means another year at Georgia State! I love it there, and of course I made new friends, most of which are girls but its cool though because I'm still trying to stay focused on school and my music. But cuffing season is around the corner so I'm trying not to develop feelings for anyone right now, but I don't know how long that's going to last (smiling). So since it's almost time to say peace out to summer, here's a quick recap of the things I did:

I entered the Magnum Live Large 2 competition (which I sadly didn't win)




I FINALLY took a long awaited, well deserved trip back home to NY




And I premiered my documentary series "On The Track: The Road To Success" on YouTube
More episodes should be on the way soon...


Since I'm always filming something, I have more videos on the way, so stay tuned! And don't forget to follow me on Twitter @SoloStar to hear the latest news from me. Stay up, and stay blessed, and I hope I get to make it back soon to keep you guys updated.
