iZotope Ozone 4: Complete Mastering System

Andrew "Prophecy" Harewood Sunday, June 13, 2010
As I was searching the web for credible plug-ins to download for Pro-Tools 8 ..I came across something that just might have been what the doctor ordered (..or would've had I made an appointment). From pop superstar producers to "Just Blaze" himself, long time producer for Roc-a-fella records, all have worked with the likes of iZotope software.

iZotope is a company like Digidesign, that designs software to run in cahoots with Pro-Tools and/or by itself - depending on the software.

What particularly caught me by the balls, was iZotope Ozone 4: Complete Mastering System. Just Blaze admits to using this in his New York studio to master and finalize a pretty good bulk of his work load. Not just becuase of who uses it is what has my attention though, but the overall look and clarity as to the software itself is what sold it to me. Just by looking at the picture, one can tell that this is NOT your typical plug-and-push type of plug-in. It doesn't just knock you senseless with all of its bells and whistles, but with the retail price - standing at a whopping $249.99 (Luckily the software comes with a 10-day grace period ..I'll take what I can *shoulder shrug*)

I will be using this to work on my "November 8th" project - Let's see how its magic works for FreeThought and Myself. __x

#TheLatestNews (Pro-Tools 8: M-Powered)

Andrew "Prophecy" Harewood ,

I just want to say that Pro-Tools 8 is the first software that ever made me want to masturbate! -_-
This has to be the MOST GROUND BREAKING application I have ever had the pleasure of working with.

From December I had fallen in love with the Pro-Tools brand by Digidesign, however, due to a lack of funds I was only able to work with a copy of Pro-Tools 8: Essentials - The "demo" version to the software. But as of two weeks ago, I went out and purchased the software ($262.43), and haven't stopped touching myself yet O_O.

This software gets a thumbs up plus a pinky toe from FreeThought Inc. __x

#ManLaw:The Bible For Male Interaction

Andrew "Prophecy" Harewood

  1. It is OK for a man to cry ONLY under the following:
    • When a heroic dog dies to save its master.
    • The moment Angelina Jolie starts unbuttoning her blouse.
    • After wrecking your boss's car.
    • One hour, 12 minutes, 37 seconds into "The Crying Game".
    • When she is using her teet.
  2. Any Man who brings a camera to a bachelor party may be legally killed and eaten by his buddies.
  3. Unless he murdered someone in your family, you must bail a friend out of jail within 12 hours.
  4. If you've known a guy for more than 24 hours, his sister is off limits forever unless you actually marry her.
  5. Moaning about the brand of free beer in a buddy's fridge is forbidden. However complain at will if the temperature is unsuitable.
  6. No man shall ever be required to buy a birthday present for another man. In fact, even remembering your buddy's birthday is strictly optional. At that point, you must celebrate at a strip bar of the birthday boy's choice.
  7. On a road trip, the strongest bladder determines pit stops, not the weakest.
  8. When stumbling upon other guys watching a sporting event, you may ask the score of the game in progress, but you may never ask who's playing.
  9. You may flatulate in front of a woman only after you have brought her to climax. If you trap her head under the covers for the purpose of flatulent entertainment, she's officially your girlfriend.
  10. It is permissible to drink a fruity alcohol drink only when you're sunning on a tropical beach... and it's delivered by a topless model and only when it's free.
  11. Only in situations of moral and/or physical peril are you allowed to kick another guy in the nuts.
  12. Unless you're in prison, never fight naked.
  13. Friends don't let friends wear Speedos. Ever. Issue closed.
  14. If a man's fly is down, that's his problem, you didn't see anything.
  15. Women who claim they "love to watch sports" must be treated as spies until they demonstrate knowledge of the game and the ability to drink as much as the other sports watchers.
  16. A man in the company of a hot, suggestively dressed woman must remain sober enough to fight.
  17. Never hesitate to reach for the last beer or the last slice of pizza, but not both, that's just greedy.
  18. If you compliment a guy on his six-pack, you'd better be talking about his choice of beer.
  19. Never join your girlfriend or wife in discussing a friend of yours, except if she's withholding sex pending your response.
  20. Phrases that may NOT be uttered to another man while lifting weights:
    • Yeah, Baby, Push it!
    • C'mon, give me one more! Harder!
    • Another set and we can hit the showers!
  21. Never talk to a man in a bathroom unless you are on equal footing: i.e., both urinating, both waiting in line, etc. For all other situations, an almost imperceptible nod is all the conversation you need.
  22. Never allow a telephone conversation with a woman to go on longer than you are able to have sex with her. Keep a stopwatch by the phone. Hang up if necessary.
  23. The morning after you and a girl who was formerly "just a friend" have carnal, drunken monkey sex, the fact that you're feeling weird and guilty is no reason for you not to nail each other again before the discussion occurs about what a big mistake it was.
  24. It is acceptable for you to drive her car. It is not acceptable for her to drive yours.
  25. Thou shalt not buy a car in the colors of brown, pink, lime green, orange or sky blue.
  26. The girl who replies to the question "What do you want for Christmas?" with "If you loved me, you'd know what I want!" gets an Xbox. End of story.
  27. There is no reason for guys to watch Ice Skating or Men's Gymnastics. Ever.
(Lmfao ...I stole this from a website THIS IS NOT MY OWN but HILARIOUS) ___X

Jam Of The Week: Understood Music (Headake)

Andrew "Prophecy" Harewood Thursday, June 10, 2010 , ,


By far..
I think this has to be one of the MOST fulfilling tracks that I've heard put together this summer. Off of Headake's NEWEST project "The Continuation" to me, this track showed Headake as his best. It's just something about that scratch sample that sent me (literally) flying when i heard it - and when I hear it. Headake started the project around the beginning of the summer, after the release of Pancakes&Mixtapes:Vol.1 (Which he featured on).
This is definitely a banger, and one worthy of being the #JamOfTheWeek - not to mention I know this cat personally lol (cool peoples)! Yall keep yall eyes open and ears to the streets for what else this cat has up his sleeve __X

Home Improvement: Upgrade Anyone?

Andrew "Prophecy" Harewood
Soo it was about that time...

I know we all had gotten accustomed to the "Black" feel of "Prophecy's Blog" Lol. However, with everything that flourishes, there is always some type of growth (or at least a connect O_O). The all black look was cool.. but it didn't really speak to the vision I had for the page. I can't say that THIS is the "Vision".. but it's closer to it than the standard black on black backdrop with teal post titles -_-

I love the grey on grey scheming and how it blends with the tangerine post headings (Don't judge my HGTV moment)

I must say, given the circumstances, I digg the new wardrobe for the page -although this page FOR ME will take some getting use to. PLEASE TELL ME WHAT YOU THINK OF THE PAGE IN THE COMMENT BOX.

Ladies and gentlemen (or just the view that probably read my post on the regular) I present to you the NEW and IMPROVED Therealprop.Blogspot.Com *Claps hands* -_- *walks out the room* __X

#PoetryPlug: To My First Poem

Andrew "Prophecy" Harewood Saturday, June 5, 2010 , ,

It was beautiful..
The way you handled yourself that day. My first time steppin to the light. Birds flyin, you neva looked up from your piano of a position. Strings set you off easy, but today was different. You aint hesitate like you normally do, you fired off and there were frets on display. I could see your spine, how naked you were, so pure. You walked like wait, like patience, like the noblest of attributes; moved like pride, you did. Birds flyin, you neva blinked, neva pulled curtains over your words, you let yourself see cuz it was easier to breathe that way. Sometimes darkness chokes, and you faced the lights, and sang to them. I like to think that your voice is the reason winter gets silent, it anticipates your coming like spring, bold like January neva happened, like the year didnt start out cold. Like we was neva meant to be packed in third world apartments, hearts strumming underprivileged, struggling tunes. You sang like unborn lungs, pure and muffled, like we were not destined to sleep on streets covered with notes too hungry to hear, let alone make a home out of. Naw, you walked like you knew where you going, wobbling, yes; but dodging death with grace. And to think I had almost aborted you. Birds flying, your face neva dripped fear, and somehow you knew that stage lights are liars, they say heaven but give off toxic fluorescent. You had to have your own light, and I loved you for that ambition, that tone. How violent your passion is, you sing disrespect to pain, and play poverty like you wrote it yourself, and you own the music of your life. I love that, but some people hate it because they can't do it themselves, can only be instruments, and you play them too, viciously, with all the love you can muster. I've watched you rhyme enemies and dance to death threats. Double dutch music onto concrete and give it a heartbeat, who said words couldn't change the world? You waltzed me out of wounds too black and blue to be human, told me it wasn't normal for my heart to beat the way it did, that broken songs don't make sense. Birds flyin, you loved me like the sky was clear, like we were the only two people in the room that day, and I gave you away, adorned in the best of me. Though poems end, and people clap and leave, you've neva stopped singin to me. I'm a bruised tune with poetry for lips, and we say more than music.

8th of November: Release Date Blues

Andrew "Prophecy" Harewood , , ,
So it's official..

the project will in fact be the "8th of November" project as stated before. In the midst of contemplating whether I should change it or not, I noticed that videos had already been posted to the internet with the title already stamped on it ..so hey.. problem solved. But in other news, even bigger obstacles await myself and the rest of the FreeThought team, as we contemplate the release date of to the second project of the summer.

In being TOTALLY honest, I had it in my heart to release the project to the public June 18th, however, in light of so many on the team still discombobulated due to summer vacation transitions, the adequate amount of attention and publicity needed to successfully launch the project, might be handicapped by such an "early" date.

"We still have yet to put out an OFFICIAL video for the project" (Outside the confines of 'Salutation' and the Freestyles leaked to the FreeThought Channel).

All in all, I have to agree that releasing a project on def ears is the WORT thing any artist can do - unless that was your plan from the beginning. So as it still stand, the release of the project is indefinite until we feel the timing is right and the energy is pure.

Until Than.. FreeThought's Channel will be providing you the HOTTEST videos of the summer till than - provided by none other than FreeThought's own ___X

I Don't Get Picked..We Pick The Label

Andrew "Prophecy" Harewood


ATTENTION.. ATTENTION..

As if you didn't know (and if you really DIDN'T know) FreeThought proudly presents to you the OFFICIAL FreeThought Insignia!

Jermaine and myself came together to decide what it was exactly we wanted to represent our artistic brain child. Now if you've been keeping up to date with all of our video post, than you've become quit familiar with the logo already.

The logo is a leafless tree amidst a blank canvas.
As you will also notice is that the tree and the background are always contrasting in color (black on white or white on black). All of this together.. creates a tree representing artistic liberation in a contrasting world currently void of it - leafless for all of us to "sprout" however we see fit to our artistic liking.

Ladies and gentlemen.. I give to you, FreeThought's insignia! *Pats own back*

Jam Of The Week: Wonder Years (MC Lyte)

Andrew "Prophecy" Harewood ,


I feel like with all the hype surrounding all of the new upcoming projects, I have been neglecting to post videos OUTSIDE the confines of FreeThought.. (Not what I intended)
So with that, I give to you a throwback jawn from MC Lyte, the QUEEN of Hip-Hop. I personally LOVE this song (goose bumps every time I hear that Jay-Z sample).

Hope you enjoy! __X

..Oh and MC Lyte can get the bizzy dizzy o_O #ThatIsAll

To Change Or Not To Change

Andrew "Prophecy" Harewood Wednesday, June 2, 2010 , , ,

After weeks of debating and deliberating, I have come to the conclusion that I'm not TOO sure that "8th of November" is what I want to call my upcoming project. WAIT WAIT WAIT ..it's not that I don't like the name anymore (I LOVE that name - its my birthday -_-) I'm just saying that I'm not too sure that it makes the statement that a rookie project should make - at least I think...

I like to believe that in this being my very first solo project, naming the project after the day I was born would give the tape a "new comer" feel. However, with the success of FreeThought's debut project "Pancakes & Mixtapes: Vol. 1" due to the "spunk" of such a ''out the box'' title ...I have just come to feel that "8th of November" does not meet that same "level of spunkyness" (I know that word doesn't exist ..its my blog *cuts eyes*)

All in all, the title STILL stands to be released as "8th of November" - but is under HEAVY deliberation. I just wish I had some OUTSIDE feed back and opinion on the situation and circumstances __X
