I can remember the joy the tears, the light the dark, everything...
Lying in our spaceship alone, hoping love would solve it all.

Sports song single release
Let the Debate Begin…The Kobe Jordan Song is here!
gilli moon's and J.Walker's joint label, Divine Nine Productions, has released THE KOBE JORDAN SONG.
For sports enthusiasts there has never been a more controversial debate than Kobe Bryant vs. Michael Jordan. Fans of Kobe claim that he can do everything Jordan did and more, while Jordan fans normally point to the statistics. Their bodies, their position, their swagger and even their coaches are eerily similar. But are their games as close as people say? And if so, who is better?

word

Everywhere gilli goes, she writes. Read her anecdotes of different cities, interesting shows, people she meets and experiences felt. What's on her blog today?

I spoke at the Musician's Institute in Hollywood  on this topic: “How to be a successful Artist Entrepreneur – the ins and outs of getting out there as an artist in the business of music”. So I've now completed the article on this subject and will be a chapter in my upcoming book, Just Get Out There. Meanwhile, read it at www.gillimoon.com/word

The Successful Artist Entrepreneur
– the ins and outs of getting out there as an artist in the business of music.
The KEY TO SURVIVAL AND SUCCESS in the music business of TODAY is to be a unique artist, in charge of your own destiny. It means you need to be an artist entrepreneur. In order to be powerful as an artist, you have to be very business artist. You need to be very self driven and business savvy. You don’t need to know everything about the business (you can go to experts for advice) but you are in control. If you want it to be life long, you have to be a visionary. You have to be able to think outside the box and “feel” it inside. A lot of inner work is required. So while you are working on your craft and techniques on the outside, you have to work on your mindset on the inside.

I feel inspired, motivated, joyous and connected. I believe that:
 

Artistry is a life long journey

You gotta be business minded as well as an artist to be in this business of music

Just get out there, and put one foot in front of the other, and the road
 will reveal itself

Find your competitive advantage as an artist: your uniqueness + your talent

Use my 3 Os: Optimism + Organized = Opportunity

When you know WHO you are, and WHAT you WANT,.... opportunities start COMING to YOU.



With my company, I've now been able to set up some cool services and opportunities to help you in your vision.

GILLI MOON & J.WALKER: SKILLZ cd (2009)
As you may know already, J.Walker and I released our joint album together SKILLZ earlier this year, and it has been very opportunistic already. We had a launch performance at Downtown On Ice, Pershing Square early January, to tons of kids and more coming. Since then we have performed at a school, and have been selling the CD on our website www.skillzcd.com and iTunes. This album is a cross between hip hop and pop, using J's rap and spoken word, and my contemporary music production and voice. We're very excited with the developments of this project for youth.
