The interview went well and was very interesting – Stephane hated the idea of the Red Book of Bali !
I did my best to try to convince him that it was beneficial, but he was set in his ideas… he said that a french man tried to do the same thing a few years back and it completely backfired, so hopefully the Red Book has more hope !
He justified his point of view quite well though, he has been working in Bali for more than 20 years now and I think he understands how things work here.. Then again, he might be wrong..

I’m Krystatic I’m from the West Midlands, Wolverhampton and I started out as an artist when I was 12 really listening to rappers like Big L, Dr Dre, Nas and Ludacris. I use to see them on MTV Base with there top of the range music video’s and thought thats something I would like to do so from there I started but as the years went on I’m improving my flow and lyrics everytime.

Well I’ve just released my new album Stepping Out the Box which will be on all download links soon and my biggest acheivement in hip hop is this new album because it has been getting a good responce from people so I’m looking to take that on board and focus on getting as many sales on all the download links RGS distrobute too.
