SPECIAL MOMENTS WITH THE MOBB
I've had so many moments I couldn't even list them all, so I'll go with my personal favorite -

I'd been looking for a guitar player to work with me in the studio for a while. I couldn't find anybody that wanted to really work and be discipline enough to pump out mad tracks. For some reason, when I least expected it, a very sweet girl called "Teddy" re-introduced me and Ed Baldwin with each other. I still remember that night very clear....Ed was playing his Small Print cd and I couldn't stop saying to myself, "wow, this dude is fricken awesome!" Ed and I talked for a good while that night. I asked him if he would come over the next day and check out my studio and my music. He agreed........The rest is history.
