Momma Rapper








The most amazing thing happened last night and as I sit at home, adrenaline still pumping hard, even 24 hours later, I can say for $25.00 I had a dream come true. Now did I ever think in a million years I would I ever be qualified to be in a booth, hell no, not sure I still am, but I just don’t give a dam anymore cause quite honestly, why not just follow your dreams? Why, because someone else told you, that you couldn’t? The f they knew anyways? They know how ur blood pumps through your veins? Or how ur heart skips a beat when you hear your own voice, your own words, your life, your thought and your feelings into something that feels good to me? I might be looking like a fool but I’m having fun and so is my family so I gives no fks 🤔
And let me tell you, it was no easy ride getting there. For one, the only transportation my family has is a scooter. Beep beep bitches 😂 my family used to consist of 3 but that number has since doubled 😁
While these extra children are not blood they are most definitely family.
While I can offer a lot, I’m only one person, I can always offer love and acceptance. If my kid loves them, I love them 🙋
So how does a family of 6 get to a studio? Well we do what we do😂 it’s how we run shit around here🚶 we just get it done. 2 on scooter 4 on bus. 🙆🙆 We got babies on the hip 😁
We roll into the studio 😎 the first 2 then the other 4.

I just knew this guy had no idea what he was about to encounter 😂
And I brought no beat 🚶🙆
Cause that’s not what I do 🔊
I’m different y’all 🤔 I admit that in everything I do.
The look on his face to when he asks for the beat and I was like no, I just am here to record my voice.
Ha, listen I admit I don’t what I’m doing but listen I do the shit ass backwards, but I’m still getting it done and like I’m still learning, but the way I do it, works for me 😂😁 So Elsa that shit and let it go. 🙆 We all do things better when we do them on our own terms. 📢🔊

So I lay down the lyrics. My crew of 5 sitting with the engineer and me in the booth. An Eminem video playing in my head. I really don’t care if the song goes anywhere. I’m proud of how my first time went and we had fun 🙏
My hands were sweating, my knees shaking. Such a little thing to one person, means the world to the next so judge me will u not?
Now listen 😂 I have insecurities. I often stumble up when I’m speaking. Fear of rejection, lack of confidence, the combo introvert, God please don’t let me let my child down, in front of these people, nerves 😐 on edge anxiety. The remains of emotional abuse and lack of self love. Something I’m working on and coping with, clearly 😁
The most important thing last night, was that smile on my child’s face.

That was priceless .
Something I hope we can do again, her voice is beautiful.
I can’t wait to release this track.
A big thank you to AMG Tampa.
It was a pleasure working with you guys, and I hope again in the future. 😂🔊
“Prodigy” coming soon. A big shout out to Clint Mitchell with The Shoals.
He has welcomed this with open arms and has built a beat, did some fancy stuff to the vocals and is preparing a masterpiece of Momma Rapper crazy 📢🙏 Thank you. You are a huge blessing.
And y’all 🗣 he is doing it out of the kindness of his heart, thousands of miles away 🙏🙏 #blessings
Thank you for believing in my crazy wild different noise 🙆😁🔊
For those that know, I’ve been messing around with the Bandlab app on my phone since October. Some out of boredom, some out of freedom.
My daughter is grown now and moved out at 18 (1.5 years ago). (BOREDOM) She has moved back home just this past month, so not so bored at all anymore 😂
I’ve also had a lot of time to reflect on what makes me, me. Not inclusive to the fact that living a single life has given me the opportunity to actually feel whole as a person. Recovering from domestic abuse is something not easily done. Even years later. I can say this is my recovery process. I’ve always written (secretively) since I was 13. The only person that knew about that was my daughter. It was something I did for fun, keep her smiling, laughing in a world that was full of chaos, anger and abuse. Once I was single, my daughter took that opportunity to push me to be more of myself, including this off beat, fast talking, Momma Rapper hidden identity self as well. Something often teased at or put down, was something my daughter admired and loved. (Freedom)
Over the past 5 months, it really has been something kind of like wow.
The transition is like wow too.
First YouTube video:
Now I have insecurities, which we all do. So the first video is like meh 😐 but the message, it means more.
U can see the nervousness in my face, and hear it in my voice.
Nerves 😐
But with encouragement from my daughter, I’ve been putting out song after song after song.
Now mind you 😁 these are recorded from my bathroom and from my broke ass metro phone.
Again people, I’m a mom, and who TF has 400 to 800 dollars to hit a studio. And let’s be honest, I’ve had no formal training, I do not read music, and barely know what people are even talking about when it comes to studio stuff. 😁
But I can put words together and I can say them pretty fast. 😁
And it’s getting better over time.
My most recent video :
I have some news on the new one tho 😂
It’s going to studio. I found a friend through a mutual friend that has a studio and is willing to work with me on the cost to record. Drastically too 😁
He knows I’m broke and trying to buy a house. Plus again, I don’t make any money at this, so to invest money in it, isn’t really conducive to my lifestyle ATM.
So after posting “Prodigy” I get this comment

Ha, the fact that he is my favorite artist of all time, y’all know that made my day.
He helped me get through life through his music 🙏 so for someone to make that comparison, which I know I am nothing like him, it still made my day.
I really hope you enjoy “Prodigy” which will be coming soon as soon as I find a ride to Sumter 😂😎😂 (can’t drive the scooter that far LMFAO)
I know, here I come with more weird shit, but listen, it’s a thing, and if it’s not it should be. 😄
I often get bored with the monotony of the same meals and basic snacks, especially when party planning it event planning.
This is a very beautiful snack 😍 but also can be cut differently for shapes and obviously chocolate can be molded into variety of shapes.
Point being is the taste 😁
The chocolate does over power the cheese, so less is more 😁
I also found that white chocolate is better with a sharp white cheddar.
It is a must try 😁
