March Milestones

March was a month full of growth and milestones for the @GullySteez network. Notably, the allthingsdope group smashed through my 2022 goal in the first quarter of the year and we are now over 75,000 members. The group also reached roughly 830,000 people in the last 28 days (another record) and the centralized website (allthingsdope.com) hit 1400 views in its first true month of publishing on a daily basis.

The other legs of our network are also steadily growing with @Blackbookology & @SteezWars leading the charge as one of the largest blackbook graffiti battles on the internet. @Sketchathon_ & @Sketchaholics continue to get newcomers. And @SecretPoetryStash finally made a return after a lengthy absence. These projects are the backbone of our network and I hope to continue providing value to our participants for years to come.

All good things come through constant motion!

Be You. Live R.E.A.L.

D.T. Ruth & PMiller – Dissonant Thoughts

“Now it’s all my fault coz you ain’t chase your purpose/ I could shoulder that like I’m Atlas/ Shrugged when I heard you talking down on us/ It’s not adding up like copernicus/ We put you in the center like you were the sun/ with no incentive, just to see you run…”

This past Saturday marked 23 weekends in a row releasing music as D.T. Ruth with the release of “Dissonant Thoughts” produced by PMiller. This song is extremely personal and the poetry in my verses served as an outlet for me to release some pent up frustration.

Red Flags

I don’t want to see you but you implore
Got me feeling weak,
a horrid scene,
as I ignore
every red flag on the concourse
You take siege of my needs
I’m a fiend for your encore

Drowning

I’m drowning in my doubts
and
couldn’t swim with sorrow
so I occupy my time thinking ’bout tomorrow
but
nothing ever really works
the way I plan it
I planted plenty seeds and I’m still so famished
I tried to cut my teeth and there’s no progress
Dammit
But my mama needs me so I got to manage
I’ma hit these streets on a mission
Frantic
until I far exceed all my dreams
I’m manic
D.T. Ruth

D.T. Ruth & PMiller – Liquor Store Murders

PMiller and I just released “Liquor Store Murders” (the second of three solo tracks I’ll be releasing this month). The poetry I wrote for my verse was based on my history of trying to drown my doubts and my thoughts out with beer and my constant need to dwell on the past for no reason.
