YJP - CARLOS COY PROTEST (The Introduction)

2122 Center St, Houston TX 77007

It's your boy Young J once again. I'd like to welcome back all my readers back to the blog. Without you my words mean nothing. The support of the Free SPM Movement mean the up most. It's been several months since I've last shared with you. I had taken a short break but, now I have some very special information to share with you. This information is worthy of every penny your paying for! Actually you don’t have to pay a single cent. At the conclusion of this report there will be a special Free SPM Movement message; if you are a SPM fan you will not want to miss this update.

Dope House Records main office

Here's an editorial I was working on sometime during the middle of 2013 till now. As time will reveal I've been busy but I had to get back to blogging it up and finally finish this piece off. With the new year rolling in that would mean new goals have been set and accomplishment need to be made. Now it's time to let the blogging begin. This is a good opportunity to say, “I hope that you all had a great 2013 and a even better new year. Strive for success and seek out what satisfies you mostly and do your best to show love to all. OK enough of this, I think it's only fitting I open with current events about what has been occurring.

Dope Sells Itself:

Some of you may know about my status with Dope House Records. Yes, social media

The Son Of Norma digital audio sample

up keeping is hectic at time but, Dope House fans need to know and want to know more about SPM; which includes SPM's new album updates. Even though we have won the battle will must endure the war. I seriously doubt that came out the way I intended. The latest NEW SPM tracks have officially been released by Dope House Records Project Manager. Each track will be featured on the upcoming SPM album, “The Son Of Norma.” These tracks can be found Dope House Records SoundCloud (DopeHouseOfficial.) All the new singles: Angels, People, Frustration, The Poor Kids, The River and Without The S.O.N. can be found in rotation on DHR's Dope House Army FaceBook page. I have read several of your comments about the album's official release date. There have been several questions about the progression of the album. Many fans have been wondering what's going on?, Is the album really coming out?, How is SPM? and I can only imagine 100's of other SPM related questions. I can assure you all SPM is alive and well; There's been several conflicting issues that possibly would have

Dope House Executives:

Carlos Coy, Arthur Coy, Trey Coy

prevented this Dope House Records release. I had an opportunity to hear the album and, all I can really say is it's bangin. Such tracks as "Cheefin" and Twenty Eight" will leave every fan speechless; every verse and hook is truly amazing. Don't get it twisted you will being singing it too, every time it's playing hommies. This project is being handled at the moment, and as soon as it can be completed it will be released. And that means completed in it's entirety and includes all the elements a album requires. Please stay tuned for more updates. That should be more than good news; the bad news is the fans have been waiting for more than ample amount of time.

Quota hooked it up

Almost six years later the independent label’s project staff has hustled to make another SPM project very much possible. The last SPM album was release of, “The Last Chair Violinist” was in the year of 2008. The Son Of Norma album was mixed and mastered, album art work was completed by the boy, “Coast” and, Dope House announced that they were currently over hauling some of the sample on the album. Loyal SPM fans are awaiting the release; yes, the wait has been long but, the wait will prove to be another, classic, Dope House production.

YOUNG J Promotions:

I've been promoting independent hip hop artist via, “YOUNG J Promotions.” One of

Sprite's production, simultaneous beats

my favorite happens to be a hommie; I speak of none other than the ever so fly Carolyn Rodriguez (Medicine Gril.) She's been she's been in the game for a minute or so. If your a fan Carolyn's newst album, “Dope Diary” is available for purchase. She's been putting in work as of late performing in Los Angels, Texas, New Mexico, Colorado and Los Vegas with more shows still to come. I'd like to share this quick story about another member of the Dope House Family known as, “Quotta.” Last year I was chilling at the Dope House, Chilling with Carolyn and Trey when Quota happened to stop by with his boys. This was my first opportunity meeting him. I must say he's that straight G status. Quota had nothing but love for me. I'll always be great full; show your support to Quota Keezy and stay up to date with his status and new video release’s. Other artist on the roster are as follweded: Sprite Beatz and my boy Eternal AKA Mr. Neva Die,

Eternal perfecting new material

Mav of Sol Camp and the SoCal hommie Lil Smitty. I had the opportunity to chop it up some of these dudes so check out what they had to say.
“I have my first album coming out, “Sprite Beatz – The Begining” (no dates yet) also, I have a mix tape on the way called, Sprite Beatz On The Track” I'm working on a EP project with Fo Rilo called, “Cut Throat Texas” and I have a EP coming out featuring Eternal called, “Graveyard Shyft” The Undaground Tape; all of these projects I have produced,”says Sprite Beatz.

Mean while my boy Eternal continues his hustle in the great state of Texas. Eternal is always working on new projects. Eternal had said, “I'm working on the Hata Proof click album, ALL OR NOTHING” and, I'm finishing up my solo project, THE PUPLE DIARy Vol. 3” He mentions, “Sprite Beatz and I are collaborating on some future projects. Sprite's real

cool and a talented producer; real humble. He hits me up just to see and see how I'm doing. Our EP, “Graveyard Shift” is coming out soon. When I first heard Sprite's beats I knew I had to fuck with him. He does the damn thang screwin and choppin too.

As Eternal and Sprite Beatz are deep in the midst of their careers out west, Mav is in the zone. Previously Mav has released his latest album titled, “The Cigarillo Chronicles.” which is a available for free download. Currently, Mav is working on a new album. The album is untitled as of now. I spoke to Mav a few days ago and this is what he had to say about his album, “It;s gonna feature, Do Or Die, Romero of Clika One, Fuchapro, Ladibug of Poperty 6 and more. Me and the platinum producer Mex Manny are collaborating on an album together. Mex Manny has produced for TI, Wale, Rihanna, Snoop Dogg, Future and more. He produced the bad remix with Wale and Rihanna and, Rihanna featuring future, “Love Song.”

Lil Smitty who is reppin that Roland Height, will be releasing his latest album titled, “I Ain't Going Nowhere.” These artist are on the rise and need your support I encourage you to listen. The underground is deep. In my opinion, “the majority of underground artist I've heard are better than most main stream artist who are played on the radio daily. My boy stay on the hustle settin trends. By the way, just to let you know when the haters are jacking you, your making moves. Yes it does happen, just to let you know. Once again keep settin trends and you will find that success; stay settin trends
hommies.

Free SPM Movement:

Many of you know SPM had his case denied for an appeal. There's been many tactics supporters have implemented since SPM's sentencing first began. We have online petition singing to aid some hope of SPM's release. We have written letter to the district attorney supporting SPM. As of now I am coordinating that includes you. YES! “WE”, as a movement, could be that voice shouting on the door step for justice. Can you envision you and I representing SPM's freedom.

Let me attempt to explain why this cause has came about. Although there has been several milestones before this era of the, “Free SPM Movement.” We are far from victory but, we will not achieve such task without your voice. With our physical presents and our vocal voices perhaps the DA will see and hear that there are many of us who display interest in the freedom of SPM. Were not asking too much; all we are asking is that we are heard and understood. My message to you is, “The DA has to understand that there are more than one reason SPM's case has to be examined. This is the very reason why, and I ask you for your efforts; this protest will not be possible without your voices.

I will have more information about this specific protest. I just thought I'd take this time to being informing you about this campaign as we protest for justice against the justice. You can leave any comments about this protest. I had thought using the term protest is a little some what to vague. This is a protest however it's not just any protest. This will be known as the, “Carlos Coy Protest.” I think with a name like that, there's more pride that can be shown for what the protest will stand for.

Carlos Coy Protest:

Here's some snippets from the first upcoming Carlos Coy Protest blogs.

SNIPPET #1
Let me quickly get to the business at hand; as this will be something all SPM fans would like to...

SNIPPET #2

The magnitude of this type of protest would be the first of it's kind, ever in creation, since Carlos Coy's imprisonment began. In order to have a positive this should be constructed properly. Do you have any ideal how to begin coordinating an entire protest...

SNIPPET #3

The era of this movement is very important, and the even that will be illustrated before you perhaps is once in a life.. All efforts are important and includes you...

BIG GIBZ: MEXICAN SWAGGA

YOUNG J: This is ya boy Young J comin live with that exclusive with that hommie "Big Gibz." It's good to have you come through I appreciate your time. How have you been doing?

BIG GIBZ: I'm good just blessed to be alive. Ima working man clocking in and out while I'm also pushing my music searching for the big payoff. Hopefully one day my music will become my only job getting paid big dollars to do what I love to do, making music.

YOUNG J: You’re a Texas native from Waco, what was the youth years of Big Gibz like?

BIG GIBZ: Growing up I was like a normal kid I was bad, but yet innocent. I grew up around my older brothers and sister so I seen a lot. But during my teenage years I was quiet, but I hung around thugs and grew up in rough neighborhood. I kind of keep to myself and my music is the pain I've seen bangin out the speakers.

YOUNG J: When you were growing up what type of music were you listening to?

BIG GIBZ: Mostly Rap: Kid Frost, NWA, Lil Rob, 8Ball & MJG, Dr. Dre, Easy E, all the Old School Rap, along with some R&B.

YOUNG J: What type of music does Big Gibz have in his iPod these days?

BIG GIBZ: These days I got Big Cease From Hata Proof Records, I got Old School Lil Flip when he dropped a CD with a group called (HSE) Hustles Stacking Ends, King Lil G out of Cali, Old School Tejano Micheal Sagado, Los Palominos, Los Garcia Bros, Dope House Fam, Playa Made Mexicans, Juan Gotti, Flatline, and many more.

YOUNG J: I gotta say you got some pretty sick flows, when was it that you decided you wanted to be a rapper?

BIG GIBZ: 8 years ago I started free styling in front of drunk hommies at house party's and it just

grew in became a life style and, hey why not get paid while doing that? It became like a drug this is my life my way out of the bullshit this world offers us. I feel as if I'm one with my music, it's my better half, music is who I am.

YOUNG J: It’s been said, “All I got in this world is my balls and my word.” I admire your integrity in this rap game and your originality will make you successful. Are you a writer or a freestyler?

BIG GIBZ: Writer all the way. Freestyling, sometimes I go hard most of the time I don't like what I say. I don't like freestyling; I don't like how I sound I'm a deep thinking kind of person, and I let my heart do the talking. I freestyle for fun at times, but I'm not a fan of freestyling though I love to jam other artist freestyles who go hard at it.

YOUNG J: For all my readers who have yet to hear of you can you explain what you and your music represent?

BIG GIBZ: I represent myself first off; also my city and state, Waco Texas, but most of all I rep my brown skin people. I wanna show em that we to got talent and we too got dreams, and with hard work time and prayers we can get there; if only we apply our selves. So if you’re a gangsta, hustla, family man or women, we are all in the same struggle no matter what state or city were from. Ima put on for y'all and never stop believing in our selves. It’s time for la raza to sit at the top now.

YOUNG J: When was it that you had started taking a serious interest in the music industry?

BIG GIBZ: Now (laughing) after all the business issues with the SPM song opened my eyes. It's time to go over and beyond now, gotta give it my all or lose it all is how I feel, and my first real album is half done and I will shock everyone when it drops; God willing and Ima be shining soon.

YOUNG J: Since you have been coming up in the industry what have been some of your accomplishment that you have achieved as of now?

BIG GIBZ: As funny as it sounds (laughing) none I mean I been in magazines, radio, even got a trophy given to me for performing at a car shows. They surprised me with an outstanding achievement award but I still feel empty. Though I'm grateful for my accomplishment, but the accomplishment I'm waiting on is a major record deal so I can make sure my family is taken care of.

YOUNG J: I firmly believe in persistence and dedication, progress is success. Where would you like to see your career propel to in the future?

BIG GIBZ: Wherever the good Lord has set out for me is what is written. Weather I'm at the top or just getting some kind of cash flow rolling in is fine with me, but of course hopefully one day I'll be livening comfortably.

YOUNG J: Since you have been on your grind in the industry what other artist have you had the opportunity to collab with?

BIG GIBZ: I had the honor to meet and chill with Juan Gotti and Rasheed from Dope House we got a song dropin soon. I respect their skills and talent so that was a honor for me to be able to record and do what we do best, make good music.

YOUNG J: I've heard of a track titled, "Body Bags" featuring yourself, the hommie Pircription, Hustle E, and the iconic "South Park Mexican." How did the concept for this particular track come about?

BIG GIBBZ: The song came about basically threw connections; Pirscription threw the opportunity on the table so I had to eat (laughing.) Shout out to, Pirscription. He threw me in the mix cause I'm guess he thought I'd be perfect on the track, I guess my skills and my Mexican swagga, everything just fell into place.

YOUNG J: My boy SPM did the hook. SPM says, "Body bags and jolly rancher Jags kick em out the telly and I’ll tell em catch a cab my Cadillac on slab and at every club I have a tab if I go past the max there’s mo after that." How did SPM get incorporated on this track?

BIG GIBZ: Well that remains a mystery only Dope House can answer that. But, it is Dope House approved; shout out too SPM's engineer, "Pain" Jamie Ortiz.

YOUNG J: Would you have imagined you would be on the same track as SPM?

BIG GIBZ: Naw I would of never thought; I’m a fan of South Park Mexican I been buying his music scene cassette tapes, I wasn't even rappin back then so I was excited about the song.

YOUNG J: At this point of your career what does it mean to you to have a track featuring yourself and SPM?

BIG GIBZ: Well I believe it helped me a lot due to South Parks fans and I think it opened a lot of eyes letting the world know that there are other Mexicans out there that can wreck. I believe though I been in the game for a while this feels like this is beginning to chapter to something great for my career.
YOUNG J: Earlier you had mentioned you’re a fan of SPM. How did you first begin listening to the music of the South Park Mexican?

BIG GIBZ: My older brother had hustle town on cassette tape we were barbequin and he popped the tape in; I was a fan since then on.

YOUNG J: How did you first hear about SPM’s incarceration handed down to him by the Texas Department of Criminal Justice system?

BIG GIBZ: I heard it from the streets. First I didn't believe it till I read it on Internet. I believe he is innocent and that he will be out soon.

YOUNG J: I’m sure you aware of the imprisonment of SPM. What’s your thought about his status?

BIG GIBZ: I believe he is innocent, he was a powerful man. His fans were deep and loyal. I believe the system seen him as a threat and they tryin to stop him, but I believe one day he will be out back in the real world with more knowledge to teach and straightin up the youth, and expose all these suit and tie devils out here.
YOUNG J: What does the legacy of SPM mean to you?

BIG GIBZ: It means a lot to me, can't know one do what he did or walk the path he stood in he's a legend for sure. He is a Mexican leader someone who we can look up to and learn from. Also he

opens a lot of doors for people like myself to walk through. Sky's the limits there's a lot of talent out here, but can't know one tell the stories about the shoes he walks in.

YOUNG J: Do you have any projects you’re currently working on?

BIG GIBZ: I'm working on my album which will be the first album of mine. Available on iTunes very soon I'm tryin do everything right but my album will be my heart Ima have something on there for everybody to jam. This project is movein slow I'm putting lotta time money and thought in to it.so remember me in stay tuned in.

YOUNG J: I appreciate your time. It’s been real talking with you hommie. Big Gigz is on his hustle and I’ll be waiting to see what kinda moves you make next. Stay up playa.

BIG GIBZ: Orale thank you and what your doing for SPM, and all artist that link up with you. I think u have great taste in talent and music. We're I end up after this I feel is already written; I put my dreams and talent in the lords hands, and you all stay tuned to see what my next move is. I got a lot going on including my album. I've never dropped a real album, but my time is in motion God bless stay true I'm out much love.

YOUNG J: REAL TALK

A NOTE FROM THE EDITOR:

This is ya girl “Anonymous” I’m filling in for Young J today. However Young J is my guest for this interview. Please enjoy and leave your comments. Thanks!

Arthur Coy Jr & Young J

ANONYMOUS: It's a pleasure to be able to catch up with the infamous "Young J." You’re sort of difficult to get in touch with. Thanks for stopping to check in with ya homegirl, "Anonymous."

YOUNG J: Anonymous, I see ya girl. What are you sippin on tonight? It's all good. It's an honor to come through and chill with all my peeps. I've been really great, I'm blessed. I've been content with living every day to the fullest. I have plenty of odd-ball projects. If I 'm not involved with promoting my hip hop artist I'm reporting on any SPM related topics. Currently I'm promoting SPM's next album titled, "The Son of Norma." and I have recently been dealing with, "Dope House Army" operations. I just had the opportunity to promote some exclusive rare never-before-seen SPM footage which since then has been released. I've been focusing more of my time in journalism. Journalism has always sparked an interest. As a journalist you’re pretty much paid to report about various topics. It's a little more complicated than the way I'm portraying it. Or it would be awesome if someone happened to read one of my editorials and say, "I admire your work" and offer me a really dope job (Laughing.)
ANONYMOUS: That sounds very interesting. It appears as if music is important to you. What type of music does Young J listen to?
YOUNG J: Music has always been apart of me. I have listened to a variety of music and heard lots of different genres. I'm into everything rock, classics, and oldies. As long as it sounds good I'll listen. I mostly listen to hip hop or rap, depends on my mood or what I'm doing.
ANONYMOUS: What was the early years of your life like?

YOUNG J: I didn't have an ideal childhood. I come from a broken home and I'm a certified high school dropout. I didn't understand the importance of an education. I grew up in different hoods; was hanging out with the wrong kids and yes drugs were an influence. I never got into nothing too serious like crack or meth. I was a disrespectful delinquent. I was going astray and had no direction; I felt lost and unsure who to really trust. There's chapters in my life I was uncertain about; my future did not look promising. I drifted in and out of darkness. I remember looking for guidance, but came up empty handed. I started listening to some of the realest rappers on compact disc. I had felt as if I was finally making a connection and I felt comforted. The rapper's I was listening to were rapping about the way I was feeling. Sad, but true there were portions of my life I found guidance from the music I was listening to, whether it was right or wrong, I didn't know any better. That began to change some time after I started listing to SPM. For the first time I was grasping on to something. Who would have thought a small company by the name of Dope House Records would broaden my prospective of life. Dope House flows deeply within my heart and soul and everything I now stand for, and the experience I've had with Dope House is truly mesmerizing. I firmly believe everything happens for a reason; despite my downfall's I wouldn't change anything. The pain I lived is my testament which defines me, this is my story. I haven't been the greatest person, but I've learned to be better. Since then I did return to school and obtained my high school diploma and went on to continue my education.
ANONYMOUS: Can you explain what your experience with Dope House Records has been like?

Arthur Coy hookin me up with a autograph

YOUNG J: The truth is there is no way I can put my experiences into words. I would have never envisioned I would have had the opportunity to be a representative of Dope House Records. I'd like to give a quick shout out to the Dope House staff and family. I met the Coy family and done some work, in: human relations, marketing, and promotions, for (CEO of Dope House Records) Mr. Author Coy. Tudy, even though you cannot be with us; you are missed. Your struggles and your pain I deeply do feel for you just as I do for your brother. I have gained quite a bit of wisdom from the conversations I've had with Sylvia Coy. She has a sense humor that is unparallelled. Recently I've chatted with SPM's nephew; I was shocked to learn he's in a rock band. Also I'm in contact with Carlos Coy's closest child hood friend. I've heard some interesting stories about Carlos as a youth. I've had the chance to talk with a cameraman who had filmed Carlos during his live shows. Let me ask you something really quick; how many of you remember the song, "Dope House Family?" That particular song is nearly seven years old but that it's one of the most beloved by all Dope House fans. I recall when I heard Carolyn say, "I ain't gonna lie Dope House till I die with my niggas in the studio, chillin' getting high." I knew she had talent. The real question was how much talent? I seen her come up through the game and hold her own, independently. Carolyn is now known as, "Medicine Girl." She's one of the most successful members of the family. All of these great accomplishment and I can't wait to see what she will do next. She is the voice; she is the voice that can do any rhyme or hook. I have spent some of my personal time with Carolyn traveling and I've worked with her which included: retail and some social media consulting. Who would have knew that a bond such as this would blossom beyond any expectations. I once revealed to Carolyn, "Los would be happy to see her at the MTV VMA's." Of course I always have promoted SPM, but as you may know I promote other dope hip hop artist who are upcoming underground MC's however I'll never stop reppin for Medicine Girl. Carolyn just released "Dope Diary" but the latest Medicine Girl album, "Night Nurse" which has been said to be dropping in the Summer of 2013. I have chilled with that homboy, (CEO of 21st Century) "Rasheed." I conducted an interview with him and he explained what it was like to be a artist at Dope House, "It's all good. Everyone has something different to offer from the creative process to the business." The entire Dope House Family has incredible talent. I've met the most devoted and loyal fans from across the world; they very much support Dope House. It is my presumption to believe the fans are the key factor keeping the era of Dope House Records and SPM afloat today.

The one and only,

“Medicine Girl” in AZ

(I’m in the background)

ANONYMOUS: How can the fans who want to help get more involved?

YOUNG J: From the outside looking in it would appear as if the outcome of event that occurred evolved into a conspiracy theory. If you look at the relationship between Carlos and the accusing family; there’s a good chance this situation was about money. I don't really want to get into that but I do want to encourage people to educate themselves about this case before condemning Carlos Coy. Read through the information, "Incandiso" has discovered and read the court transcripts that are available. You can always find more information regarding this case by visiting SPM Aftermath.
ANONYMOUS: You used the phrase "conspiracy theory" can you elaborate on that a little more?

YOUNG J: I use this term based more on the legal aspect. It appears as if the case was very one sided. For instance Carlos Coy's lawyer Chip Lewis was not allowed to fully present his case to the court. The investigation by HPD lead investigator, Heidi Ruiz can viewed as faulty. The DA pushed to have other victims who claimed they had sex with the defendant proved to be irrelevant to the case. Going back to the victim claiming the incident could have been a dream when asked. The case doesn’t revel enough evidence to hold up for a conviction; but more importantly a lengthy conviction. I find it ironic that the core individuals in this case are all females except of the judge.
ANONYMOUS: What's your thoughts about the imprisonment of Carlos Coy?

Much love to Carolyn Rodriguez

YOUNG J: It's really unfortunate that he's in this predicament. I truly believe he's an innocent man. From what I know he's doing the best he can to pass his time. He gets visits from his family and writes letters to his fans. He plays basketball often, and from what I hear he's got a good jump shot. Musically he's still got unbelievable material. In 2006, "When Devils Strikes" dropped it was like his way of slapping the justice system back in the face and say, '"Watch me do the impossible." That album was just the beginning of history materializing before our eyes. 2008 when "The Last Chair Violinist" came out it was like he was saying, "Even though I'm on lock these hoes can't stop me." He actually did make reference to that on, "S.P. So Bastardly." "The Son of Norma," will be dropping soon. His next album will be titled, "Visionary" as the "Free SPM" saga continues on.

ANONYMOUS: How has Carlos Coy affected your life?
YOUNG J: Carlos has been a huge eye opener. As I look around and see hopeless people living in addictions that they cannot control and lives of negativity; that could easily been me and without a doubt can still be. Carlos has shown me that it is okay to be different. When I read letters Carlos writes to me or other reading material I've received encouragement and I realize more about myself. I have a better understanding of who I am. I have no father; he was murdered, my mother was unaccountable for, and I lacked a lot of guidance. Because of Carlos I live a more respectable and productive life. I don't want you to think I had to give up this life style it just happened. I began to notice positive changes that were affecting my life.

ANONYMOUS: How has SPM affected your life?

Rasheed & a loyal fan

YOUNG J: SPM "Looks" like us, "Talks" like us and he has instilled that hustler type of mentality to never give up and keep pursuing my dreams. After many years of listening to SPM I still find encouragement within his music. I have read many, many comments coming from his fans who have expressed their respect and love. A large number of these messages are very touching. Many people have said they feel as if SPM is their role model. Some have said they've always felt a connection to SPM due to his music. As I'm reading these messages it reminds me of the obstacles that hindered me. Many SPM lyrics have impacted my life. I'm reminded of what life use to be or could still have been. Looking back at my life I consider myself fortunate I haven't been killed or locked up. I was a victimless kid much like the kids SPM speaks of within his lyrical content. Today I'm the complete opposite of who I was. Life is a lot brighter and productive. I'll be honest it's not always easy to make wise decisions. I believe in persistent and dedicated will help anyone endure the storm. These are some lyrics that have shaped my life into the righteousness I live for today, "I come from the slums, survived on crumbs I live like a man, and I'ma die like one" and "This is what an O-G told me filthy rich and dying lonely f**k a benz and f**k a rolly, life is what you make it hommie." This is some of the realest words I've ever heard since the great 2Pac.

ANONYMOUS: Have you always been a SPM fan?
YOUNG J: I accidental stumbled onto SPM's albums: The 3rd Wish, Time Is Money, and maybe, The Purity Album. Come to think of it my boy Hector had all of SPM's albums. He even had a SPM video called, "Latin Throne." I first heard of SPM when Hector and I were drinking some beers. I caught a good buzz and ended up drinking a few more then I wanted too. Hector said he had some Spanish rap music and asked me if I wanted to hear it. When I initially heard, "Spanish rap" I automatically lost interest. Daddy Yankee is known for Spanish based hip hop, "Reggaeton." He was the, "in-thing" that was trending. MTV played his videos in heavy rotation and I was so burnt on him. However, I've always felt that I should give every artist a fair chance to display their talents. I told Hector to put his CD's on; as he was putting the disc into the CD player he was saying, "This guy is my favorite rapper." The music begins to play and the beat was bumping. I started to listen to the lyrics. I was a little confused because Hector said this was Spanish rap but what I was hearing sounded nothing like what I had assumed. Hector had mentioned, "This guy's name is, SPM." Hector played me all of his favorite tracks from his CD's. I was truly amazed by what I heard. I asked Hector if I could barrow his SPM CD's; I was banging South Park Mexican for the next few weeks. But, to answer your question at that very moment when I first heard SPM I became a fan instantly. My dope be that South Park Mexican, and I'm a true SPM fan for life.

ANONYMOUS: You sort of answered my next question. SPM has received recognizable credibility. What sets him apart from main stream artist?

Chillin with Rasheed

YOUNG J: He was always raw and never interested if the radio played him or not. He pioneered his own style and made the music he made for his people, and the kids who experienced what he had gone through. You would have to look at what he's done and what he's doing now to fully understand what type of leader SPM has proven to be.

ANONYMOUS: What does the SPM legacy mean to you?

YOUNG J: I imagine as an upcoming artist achieving the amount of success he was getting. There's a possibility that there may have been some kind of struggle balancing a normal personal life and a rising artist blowing up. It gets hard to keep your head in the game and just do you, it's sort of a juggling act. Who knows how much cash he was raking in during his career? I'm sure it wasn’t chump change. He could have had a salary bank account with the amount of money that looks like a phone number. The fact he had the capabilities to do whatever his artistic imagination carried him is uncanny. Who knows how phenomenal he would have became. The legacy he's concreted in time shows that he possess the ability to rebound from adversity. Carlos has overcome adversity time after time dating back to his childhood. Later he became a drug dealer but found himself unhappy with his choice of employment. Thereafter his prayers answered in the form of an infomercial; he and his brother opened Dope House Records. Dope House became the fastest grossing independent record label and was home to several up and coming artist such as: Pimpstress, Rasheed, Juan Gotti, and Baby Bash. Carlos became a shooting star and was an inspiration many.
ANONYMOUS: Would you say SPM's music has changed over the last ten years?

A letter & picture from Carlos Coy

YOUNG J: The music he's doing today is more relevant than ever. Actually in my opinion it's better. The stories he's telling are still him, but they are much more descriptive and has more feeling and emotion. I think the music (Head Engineer at Dope house Records)Pain and SPM have been making is even more purer.
ANONYMOUS: What do you think can be learned from SPM's situation?

YOUNG J: That the justice system will stop at nothing if they want to send a man or woman to prison bad enough. But I don't want to focus on just the negative. I'm a optimistic thinker. The fact is SPM is one of the most watched men in the TDCJ. He's in high segregation and has a camera facing his cell at all times. He can't leave his cell without being shackled up. He can't even get his own albums, but yet he's not letting these circumstances stop him from delivering the most anticipated music coming from a place where it is forbidden. That’s inspiration in itself. Everyone should be able to find some type of motivation to live their lives in a better way.
ANONYMOUS: What does Young J represent?
YOUNG J: I represent the underdogs who are caught up in the struggle. I represent those fatherless and motherless kids and those kids who find them selves drawn into wreckless behavior. I represent the, "Player Race" that SPM has spoken about. I am not s Saint. I am no where near perfection nor do I pretend to be. I'm just a messenger delivering a message of love. If there's just one person out there who's stranded in the land of the lost, who can find any kind of hope from what I'm saying then I feel like I've succeeded. Without progress there will be not success.
ANONYMOUS: So what's next for Young J?

YOUNG J: I plan to continue blogging and on the May 25th I'll be going to check out that boy Lil Smitty's show. I'll be recording more video footage for a documentary video I’m working on. The hommie George will be coming through; the Dope House Army will be in full effect. If anyone is in the area come and chill with me and all the soldiers, and see Lil Smitty blow it up at his show. Turst me you can't loose. But, Real talk I'm just doing my thing and perfecting my crafts. I can't reveal too much but you can expect something.
ANONYMOUS: Thanks again J. It's always good to see you; I for one will be waiting to read more of your featured articles.

"Dope Sells Itself"

YOUNG J: No problem at all. Feel free to hit me up any time. Drop me an email or something and I'll be sure to respond as quickly as I can. Before I go I’d like to give props to the, "Free SPM Movement." Until Carlos Coy returns home, we will continue to hold it down for you.
