What's On The Come Up all about?

Okay, so first posting is just to let you know what this blog is all about. Basically, I created this blog because I truly admire the passion within the struggling musician. Growing up, everyone around me adults and kids alike, everyone, had some sort of plot or plan to realize the American dream. Many times that plan would include some sort of hustle like selling drugs, gambling, making music, pushing CD's and occasionally you'd have the aspiring basketball or football player. For some people music is the only thing left to hope towards or even to wake up for. The Lupe Fiasco song "Hip Hop Saved my life" just describes it all, it's the truth. Problem is there are too many people in this world wanting to become famous musicians. But, every once in awhile there is that one person or persons among us who really have what it takes to make it. My mission is to seek out those few brilliant minds and tell their stories before anyone else gets the chance. I'm interested in talking to the artist who have a desire to create meaningul and refreshing works of art that will make the world dance and think all at once. I made this website to hopefully expose the sounds of those good artists, and let the world know that there still exists art and passion behind music. So feel free to post comments and let me know what artists you would like to see on the blog.
