"I do not have a recording contract, and if you bring me one to sign, I will probably wipe my ass with it." ~ Disdain 2008
I do not have a recording contract, and I seriously doubt I will ever get one. I do not go into a studio with a team of editors who candy up my shit to make it more appealing to you. I do not have a group of promoters attempting to innovate a way to screw my listeners out of a buck. I create, record, and master every song in the living room of my one bedroom apartment with $1000 of equipment, which has taken me ten years to obtain.
I am not a playa, a pimp, or a hustler. I work a 9-5 job, and I drive a car that has broken down 36 times in the past two years. I am generally broke, torn and damaged. My music is my life diary, and if you pay close attention to what I am saying, you can learn nearly everything about me. I will not beg you to listen to what I have to say, but I appreciate every person who takes the few minutes to dive into my life. There is no corporate jockey managing this profile, and if you are kind enough to send me a message or post a comment, I will take the same time to appreciate you.

Poetic Perspective
I am a scientist and a philospher, I am the yin and the yang, I am the grey matter. While I duck behind dumpsters, eating the remains of a 3 day old hamburger, you may laugh. You may point and make comments, or nudge your friend in attempt to feel better about yourself. But, you may never understand what I do, or how I do it, and neither will I. Understanding that I will never understand is completely understood.
I live in the streets. I eat trash, and I am always in pain. Pain is what I know, it is all I know. I have never been shown kindness, and I doubt I ever will be given anything close. However, do not have pity on me. I live my life for a larger purpose, and a greater good. I am a martyr, and I sacrafice myself for those I love, even if they do not love me. I have found that people with my softness have to become strong, if they wish to survive. Because, there is no light at the end of the tunnel, and the pot of gold is just a myth. The true treasure of life resides in each and every one of us. The real treasure is knowing who you are, not why you are. So I pose this question to you - "Who are you?".
The key to life is simply described as "living", and if you are not doing so, I would suggest you re-evaluate your direction. For I am living, no matter how dead you want to make me feel. No matter surpressed or starving I become, you cannot take me away.
About the Song - Clint Eastwood
The "Clint Eastwood" cover will not be available on any sold album. It is offered here strictly as a novelty track, and will not be sold for profit. The original track was done by "Gorillaz", all vocal work on this version was done by Disdain.
Thank you for the friend request. I could obviously tell that you are extremely creative but after looking in detail at your profile, you are a very interesting and beautiful human being. Everything you say on your profile is fact delivered without B.S., unfiltered and raw. I enjoyed going through your profile.
I am very sorry about your relationship with Alaina. It is never easy to deal with that and I can tell you are both in pain. I am glad to see you both facing life day by day, whether positive or negative, loving and caring for your child and moving on.
You both have a very precious, gorgeous baby boy. Your music is great; it is refreshing to hear something real and organic. Good for you!!! You are right, your lyrics explain everything, you just have to listen. I wish you all the best.
Sure would love one! How is my big boy Brantley doing? I'm sending him something in the mail soon, let you know. Hope to meet him, and you... kiss him for me.
