Can't Keep My Eyes Off U!




Why is your Baby Momma controlling You and the New Relationship?

Its time to face the fact that your baby momma is controlling you and the new relationship and you just refuse to own up to it but it’s the truth! I’m bringing it raw and uncut because it’s a topic that needs to be talked about and I’m going to help the guys set themselves free! So, why are you allowing your baby momma to control you and the new relationship? I know you are probably saying, “She is not controlling my new relationship” Yes, she is, you want to know how? She’s controlling it indirectly. If you answer yes to any of these next few questions your baby momma is controlling you and the new relationship and you need to set yourself free and your relationship. Is she threatening you by saying she’s going to file child support? Every time you don’t do what she wants you to do she keeps your child from you? Does she threaten to expose your dirt to your new special someone? Maybe you have been creeping with your baby momma and she has threatened to tell because she still loves you? Have you admitted to being in a new relationship when your baby momma asked you and she had a problem with it? That’s just to name a few. If you are allowing these things to happen and you are entertaining this kind of behavior the problem never goes away it just gets worse. So, when are you going to put your foot down and say enough is enough, and remember that you are wearing the pants, or are you wearing the pants? Why are you so afraid of paying child support it’s your damn child right? Set yourself free. Man, why is it when men hear child support they start switching and their body began to jump on its own? (Funny)Your baby momma is controlling you and your new relationship indirectly believe that! You may not know all the things that will set her off but what you do know is that another woman/happy relationship will, and in order to keep the peace and child support off of you, you still cater to some of her needs even though you are in another relationship.


When you handle the situation in this manor you are not giving the new relationship 100% because you are allowing her to think to a certain extent she is still apart of your life in a since which is a dangerous game to play. Yes, you are playing a game and if you are not careful you will end up on the losing end. Stop fooling yourself and set yourself free. When you allow this to happen it can also cause you not to give of yourself to your new mate because you are so caught up on the past woman’s actions because she is, or have used your child as a weapon against you. Don’t allow situations such as this to keep you from being fully happy. For what its worth ,go get the child support papers and hand them to her and watch her mouth fall on the floor! When you are under this type of pressure all of your steps are calculated. Hell, what happens if you want to take things to the next level and realize you have fallen in love with the new person and want to marry her, but you don’t want to tell her ,because you don’t know how the baby momma will act, because you have the baby momma thinking that you are single or not serious with anyone. Now, what? When you look at the big picture, it’s a hole you are continuing to dig deeper for yourself to the point of no return. That’s not fair to her or you so why live like that. That’s why it pays to handle situations the right way the first tine around but we live and we learn. Now, if she filed child support on you and to keep from paying it you quit your job that’s altogether stupid and now you owe a million dollars come on now you brought that on yourself. So when you do get a job you’re going to be working for free for the next 10 years and now your new relationship is really suffering because you refuse to get a job. Set yourself free do things the right way keep your rocket in your pocket or strap up super tight! The day you face her and the issues at hand head on you will become happier because the situation is under control, its not hanging over your head because you are taking care of your child. Many relationships as well as children are suffering because of this matter. The children are innocent and shouldn’t be used as a tool. Not only are the children suffering, they are being robbed of their relationship with the other parent. When it comes to a point that the relationship has ended it’s strictly about the child or children involved and being cordial and respectful towards each other. With that being said all the special privileges come to an end home girl! Written By: Mysheka Ross




Best/Worst Recording Sessions

So DBIC caught up with a couple of artists in the industry. We have been wanting to ask about their personal best or worst recording session, and if there was a meeting behind it. It was interesting to listen to the answers we got.

Pr1me

Pr1me: “We were at Snoop Dogg’s home studio. We were recording and it was the night of the 2010 BET Awards. We got done recording, sat on his couch in the living room and turned on his big screen TV. We’re watching the BET awards and Snoop Dogg comes out to perform. We’re like damn, we’re here recording at his home studio and there he is performing at the awards. We were with his brother Bada-Bing. So we’re watching Snoop at the awards and we ended up falling asleep on his couch. We were tired because we had been recording all day. Snoop has this long round couch that covers the whole living room. It was rounded off and everybody picked there little spot on the couch and we all fell asleep. When I woke up, I and the person next to me woke up at the same time. I opened my eyes like damn; I forgot where I was at because it was so bright in there. The person next to me opens his eyes, and it’s me and Snoop Dogg looking at each other dead in the face. We just started shooting on each other like what you doing in my house? Falling asleep on my couch? We just went at it, spitting back and forth. Everybody else started waking up because they heard us going at one another. He was like you sleeping on my shoulder and I’m like hold you, I was here first, you came and slept next to me! (laughs). We were just going at it, being stupid. That was one of the funniest times in the studio.”

Ice Cube: My best or my worst? Let me think about this shit. Back in the day, we’ve had sessions where fights broke out between the Lench Mob. Some of my worst sessions were over at Echo Sounds. It was because my crew was kind of wild. We were young and crazy. We were showing out (laughs). We had to break up fights and shit. It was chaos to have so many people coming through the studio. In the booth, I’ve had days where I was like this is the worst session of my life. It’s usually equipment problems. Cheap studios and shit don’t work; I had to leave because I couldn’t do what I had to do. I’ve been in those situations. I’ve had a lot of good sessions so it’s too hard to pick a best.”

True Hustler Good Music...

So ok, everybody is partying and having a good time. It seems like there is not a care in the world. Then there's the other side of that dream. Yeah i call it a dream because that is not how life is, and no one knows that better than the street wise rapper Suge Gotti. Through his trails and tribulations he's able to implement all of it into his music. Journey with us as we talk to the Watts bred mc and see what been cookin'.


DBIC: We’re right here with Suge Gotti on DBIC Magazine. 319 Music is in the building of course. We want talk about a few different things with you today. How is 2011 treating you? Suge Gotti: I’m doing good bro; just trying to get it in. We’re building the foundation for my following. DBIC: And how do you plan on doing that? Suge Gotti: We’re hitting the streets hard. I’m putting out more music for my fans. We can’t ignore the internet either. That’s a beautiful thing right there. DBIC: No doubt. Speaking of the streets, I know you have a little history with the street life. Suge Gotti: I’m from Watts, California. I had a few bumps in the road. I went to prison on a few different occasions. When I got out two years ago, I said I was gonna’ see what’s up with this music industry. I got in contact with Big Wy and they’ve showed me the ropes. DBIC: How exactly has Big Wy showed you the ropes? What type of advice has he given you? Suge Gotti: Don’t take it personally because not everybody is gonna’ like your music. And Big Wy has really educated me on having my paperwork done properly. DBIC: That’s definitely important. Tell us about the origin of your name. Where does that come from? Suge Gotti: The Suge part comes from when I was little; the Gotti part comes from the streets and in jail. DBIC: And how did you get that name in jail? Suge Gotti: From putting in work. I stood my ground.

DBIC: OK. Tell us about your record “Wish I Could.” Suge Gotti: I got Cali Swag District on it. It’s a pretty hot record. The song actually just got to radio about a month ago. There are about 47,000 copies on the internet. I would describe it as a street banger and west coast song. We’re trying to get everybody on it. I’m trying to get everybody feeling it like “Teach Me How to Dougie.” We were in the studio one day and a Too $hort song came on. I said man; we can turn that into a hook. Big Wy and Poly Rob started making the beat and we went from there.



DBIC: No doubt. Is there a remix coming? Suge Gotti: I have a remix with Joe Moses. I’m trying to do an official remix as we speak. I would love to get Too $hort on it of course. I was thinking about 8Ball & MJG as well. E-40 would be dope on it too; maybe Gucci Mane or Waka Flocka Flame. I have a relationship with Waka Flocka because I’m on his album. DBIC: Wow, tell us about that. Suge Gotti: I’m on “Flockaveli” on a track called “TTG” – Trained to Go. DBIC: And how did you establish a relationship with Waka? Suge Gotti: We have a mutual friend. He introduced me to Waka and we met up at the BET awards. He was out here in California for a couple of days. Our mutual friend was telling Waka that I was one of the hottest rappers in the underground Los Angeles scene. Waka came to the studio and we recorded a few songs together. When his album came out, one of the records we did was on his album. There’s a video on the internet for the song too. DBIC: That’s crazy. Tell us more about meeting Big Wy and how that came about. Suge Gotti: My relative is Gangsta from The Comrades. About 7 or 8 years ago, The Relatives had a situation with Sony Records. Gangsta was in the studio doing a song with him and I was in the studio that night. That was the first time I formally met him and got to chop it up with him. Seeing him around as a youngster here and there, I was finally introduced to him by Gangsta.

DBIC: And did you guys immediately click on a music level? Suge Gotti: We clicked then. Two weeks after I first met him in 2004, I went to prison for a couple of years. When I got out, I found him again. I told him that I wanted to start rapping. He helped me out a lot. He had me come to the studio and we started working. Here I am now. DBIC: How did going to jail change your perspective on life? Suge Gotti: My son was young when I went to jail. He was like 9 when I got out. I lost 5 years with him. When you’re in prison, there are a lot of dudes who will never see the streets again; dudes with 300 year sentences and been in jail since the 1960’s. I was in there with dudes like that. It makes you realize that you have a second chance at life; go out there and make the best of your opportunities. I looked at all the negative energy I put into hustling and gangbanging, I’m gonna’ take that same energy and put it in something positive. 9 times out of 10, it works out.


DBIC: That’s a great answer. I know you’ve done a little bit of acting as well. Tell us about that. Suge Gotti: I did a season on “Prison Break.” I also did an independent film called “Street Gravel.” I also just went and auditioned for “The Bodyguard” movie they’re re-doing with Rihanna. I have a couple of films under my belt. DBIC: That’s dope. Any more plans to do more films? Suge Gotti: I’m gonna’ do a sketch comedy with Mike Epps. DBIC: Anything else you want to tell us about that? Suge Gotti: It’s still in the works so I can’t give away too many details, but I’m already signed in for it. We just have to start the work on it. It’s gonna’ be like a “Madtv”, “In Living Color” type of thing on Comedy Central. DBIC: Cool. What are the future plans for the music? Suge Gotti: I just recorded a single called “Boss Music” that will be out ASAP. We have a Rick Ross sample on it and it’s a great street banger. I’ll be releasing a mixtape April 1st called “Boss Music” as well. It’s like a street album. In November, my solo album “The Life and Times of Omar Ray” will be out. DBIC: How much of the album is done at this time? Suge Gotti: 60% of the album is done at this point. DBIC: Would you like to share any of the details with us or is it too early? Suge Gotti: I have guest appearances from The Relatives, Joe Moses, Nipsey Hussle and Glasses Malone so far. Next week I’ll be in the studio with Ray J and do some work with him. I have tracks with Timbaland, EP, DJ Quik and a few others. DBIC: Wow, no doubt. I’m gonna’ let you go on that note. Do you have any last words before I let you go?
