This is Braille. Me and Theory are having an incredible time so far on our tour. Tonight was our first official show of the tour and it took place in Switzerland. This was one of the BEST crowds Ive ever performed in front of. There was like 700 people there and we were the headlining act. It was really mindblowing. The crowd was jumping, interacting and requesting songs the whole night. I was so humbled. People were even requesting some rare songs that I have never performed live. I felt bad because one guy wanted me to perform Together Not Alone and I didnt have the instrumental with me. He was literally begging and I dont even have the lyrics memorized. It was a lesson for me, that I need to constantly listen to all my songs and bring the instrumentals just incase someone wants to hear it.

The story of this tour is so incredible. Theory Hazit almost didnt get his passport in time and he would have to stay home without his passport. The delivery was coming late and I spent 6 hours on the phone talking with fedex to get an earlier delivery and talking with the airlines to change his flights. In the end, it was a miricle right before our eyes. Fedex delivered the passport earlier then planned and we were able to switch his flight last minute for only 25 bucks. We had so much opposition trying to get to Europe. Then, when we finally arrived in Europe - Theo’s bag didnt make it. haha. It didnt matter because he ended up getting two sponsorships with free clothes from Carhart.de and Mahogony. Carhart had a box of pants, sweatshirts, shirts and jackets for him to rock - and we did a great photoshoot in Germany. There were also like 5 or 6 interviews that Theory had to do during the first two days. After all the photos and interviews were done, his bag arrived and then we left for Switzerland. It was crazy, but we were so BLESSED the whole time. We want to thank Andreas, Gizmo, Rene and all the family in Germany. We also want to thank our brother Yann in Switzerland. This brother organized an incredible show and obeyed God with some very difficult decisions. We could really feel God moving in Switzerland and we even ended up praying with some people in the parking lot after the show. It was incredible.

We will have photos and videos from our tour to share with everyone once we get home. In Switzerland, we didnt even take stage till 130 in the morning. haha. Now we have to leave for our flight to Spain at 6 AM so we are getting no sleep. We have 6 shows in 6 days…. so even though we are going to get worn out, we are excited because we can see that God is with us on this tour. Plus, we didnt want to be away from our families for to long, so that is why we are doing shows every day - trying to make the most out of our time in Europe.

Between touring, writing new songs and trying to run Hiphop IS Music - I often face many challenges. If I didnt see God moving or using these efforts then I would probably slow down and devote my time to something else. The encouragement from the people and the love/grace of Christ keep me motivated to keep pushing forward during the ups and downs of this whole adventure. Tonight, I feel inspired once again to continue striving - I strive to be the best servent, husband, father, man, artist and friend that I can be. I know I am flawed, and God gives me eyes to see my flaws but he also gives me grace, patience and the ability to continue GROWING. much love yall
