Past simple

yoh what's up I'm MC jin we are here at SXSW

To-infinitive

it's been really exciting, I mean it's been great because I've been dying to see the werewolf violin player

and I happened to run into him on my first day and I mean that was awesome.

I found out probably only a few weeks ago that i would be able to come and more importantly that i was invited

to perform at one of the showcases uh... kingdom experience the one that's called

and i gotta I mean the best way to describe it encouraged

humbled and i've been excited so i think the excitement level has risen to a

just seeing the interaction between the music lovers the artists you know

just people in general i think it's great one thing i did kind of didn't think

too much about which I'm seeing here is the diversity is great definitely a

so the man with the iron fist was a great project to be a part of I mean

i'll just look at it as a great experience to learn, be on the set you know

around some great actors, great talent, great directors

and um... i've been in hong kong actually for the last couple years and

so when i filmed that i was still residing in hong kong

but this year 2013 specifically is very much a transition year uh...

mainly it's more personal related me and my wife we just had a little baby boy

so uh praise God for that blessing and because of that i moved back to the states

so new york is home-based and uh... along with that just focusing on what

i'm gonna be doing this year and is definitely music related so being here

at SXSW is very just invigorating even for that working

on album that i want a release later in the year called

it's in I would say sixty percent completion

in the sixty percent i would be able to say that

it's an album of mine like none of mine in the past so what i mean by that

definitely content wise and just the heart behind uh... incomparable to any

of my previous stuff and other thing is i would dare to say that it's probably my most

mature album uh... granted that you know, given that

I'm sorry, it's the popcorn it was so delicious i couldn't help it

no don't cut this leave it in there too SXSW is all about keeping it real and raw

it is my most mature album I think. given that I just got married,

and i would think undeniable element in terms of where I drew inspiration for this project

my faith you know these last two years have been an incredible journey

uh... walk with Christ and when i say walking with Christ. I take it more than

just has a figure of speech you know I'm talking about literally even as i

walked down this street you know I literally feel like I'm walking with christ in

many ways meaning like absorbing everything trying to look at it from not

from that perspective like where do i fit into all this what am i doing here and am I

really just here to rock the crowd and have a good time and eat popcorn

to minister you know and not because of me or my

my uh... righteousness but because just because of what God is doing in me and in my

yeah I know I seem so far off from southby southwest but it totally

and uh... it's just been great so that all will be kind of what the album is about

and hopefully I really just i guess i can summarize it with this the reason i

went with the title call hypocrite and a whole concept of it is um... it's

definitely been the most convicting album for me to write

challenging like never before so i hope that listeners can kind of get that

and if they experience that too when they're listening to it

that would be great you know that a great thing

well right now on you know, super honored and humbled to be a part of the

showcase, the kingdom experience showcase

and um... the stuff that i'll be performing is relatively

more of the newer stuff from the last year or two I released a free album that I

put online you can actually download it at, it's pretty long

only cause it's so long  crazyloveridiculousfaith.com

and it's free and for anyone that's genuinely

what is the what is he doing what does his music sound like

that would be the perfect place to start, that album

i think the intro would be a good start the intro is a song called crazy enough it's called

now does it have anything to do with odd future

not specifically but believe it or not even in a indirect way it is inspired as far as

you know i think in the last couple of years odd future as a group and I have never met them

you know like tyler i've never met them and i can't really say

anything about them on a personal level but definitely um... aware of their

music and their movement and the whole reason I'm bringing them up is because

the name itself inspired the title for this intro and um... you know just for me to

think about having a odd future might you know what does it mean for my

future to be odd so there are two lines in that rhyme that goes

I'm praying for you because you're future is odd

because all i see in my future is god. so that's the actual two lines from the rhyme

and like I said it doesn't have anything specifically to do with
