Think about our future, some would say its dead, never to return. Others would comment, love the memories but it hasn’t a chance, while others would say…I could only hope, my response is very different. Not too many people know the testimony why I returned back to a dead market that was being ridiculed and laughed at as a dieing horse on its deathbed with no one in site. My return was totally divine! I was given a directive, a vision of seeing the future through my dreams and words of people who I never met before, yet knew everything that I need to know about my future and the future of freestyle. My passion for people and the love of God motivate me and fuel me with compassion and exaltation of seeing my dream come alive. While others are hopeful, doubtful, skeptical and dogmatic about freestyle…I am filled with excitement of the turning pages in my life that will end with total victory in my dream. Wow, you might convey! I’m pretty confident about my self, but that is not the case. It is has if I have been created for such a time as this, protected, guided, taught, watched over, and encouraged to prepare for this coming time of ecstasy. I feel in my heart total joy, yes the challenges are going to be great and worth every effort my strength can muster. But in the end I will feel a sense of relief and accomplishment, because I didn’t run from my directive but rather toward my goal. The future of freestyle is very positive, positive indeed, because the anvil that has been struck by many hammers has crushed every hammer that has tried to dent and scratch the anvil. How many people have tried to lift and discard the anvil but to no avail. I still stand, not by my own power because I am nothing but rather by another, who is directing me and teaching how to proceed to the goal set before me. Freestyle’s future is very promising. This door is opening wider and wider day by day, and I see a day that I’ll be traveling and producing positive music and touring the world, not just in America, but the world. So the next time someone tells you about the failures about our music, remind them about me and where I am going. Because before this century is over my directive will be complete, but until then show them…we have only begun! The future of Freestyle…great!

im so happy that there are still artist out there that still have the faith that Freestyle will relive… not saying there arent more out there… lately ive read many things that im pretty sure many would turn and run the other way… i believe that if u hold on to that faith & work as hard to get to your goal …many rewards will come to u in the end…. u made a very good point here in this blog Johnny no matter what anyone thinks. Faith is why many artist make it to where they r today…. & also God…. without those 2 things there would be no purpose no goals…. many doubt and critize… the goals that are being put in front of all who is involved in working to open those 2 doors wide even though they may be just a little part of the freestyle community but thats why … the faith ,,, its steering many just like u ..some may turn away but u ,Johnny, keep working and do exactly what your doing como Dios mando…. everything is for a purpose..if freestyle is suppose to be dead then why so many like u , Latif,Angel, Ovidio, Lily ,me, and many,many others( artist & fans & other freestyle moguls )r working so hard to open those 2 heavy doors… because we all have the strong faith and the vision of a bigger and better future for all of freestyle .. although working seperatly but 4 the same purpose.. so no matter what rumors or lies or critizism , or even doors closed… any of u
( im speaking in general ) have recieved or been told… keep your eyes on that 1 goal u r working on…. and keep the faith…. it all makes u stronger & wiser in the end…. everyday u keep that faith that door will…. with one last push break open wide… and thats when u will be rewarded…. sorry i know i write too much …well keep strong Johnny… u know why u are here and its nice to see someone express their true feelings…. see u soon….

i just last year discovered freestyle music and heard your song “diana” on a very small local radio station and i loved it and also Fantasy girl,,when surfing the web it gives me as a fan hope,,that people are still out there performing ang moving forward.Not many people in sweden listen to freestyle music..But just to let you know,,there is still people like me far away from america..a girl named Diana from sweden listening to all the old music and loving it and hoping that freestyle will never die.

Thank you, thank you, thank you…its not easy for me and other recording artists like Rachel, but and I know I am stepping on egg shells, but I can’t give up. Not yet not never! I have so much more to offer. The negative must be met with positive. And more and more people are requesting and desiring more Freestyle. The key here is to present quality product so industry jocks like radio. Have to sit back and think why I’m I not playing this awesome song! We have to teach it’s more than about supporting a format. For me it’s about people and their lives in my path. That is why more fans are supporting Freestyle and artists like us. Because there is more of a message, support system that they can turn to when they are down or to create more beautiful memories that will last for a life time. I can’t deny that I love performing and my fans…but the more I have matured the more understanding that there is a purpose. Forgive me if it sounds preachy but that’s the farthest truth. It’s about a dream and wonderful beautiful dream. And in that dream I am a part of it. And in my dream I can see crowds screaming and crying and having a great time just enjoying them selves. And the forefront Freestyle Music being presented and loved. I know that my dream is nuts but I am living it right now and its a wonderful feeling. Why can’t I share more that’s in my heart, why can’t I sing new songs that enrich the souls and make the feet dance again, for young and old a like. Why can’t I? There is no feeling like the stage. They say once you get the stage under your feet, they always want to run to it. Back to the stage! Powerful. I also thank God for the vision that people have on this site and aboard. If we can only united and become one, one cord is strong but two is stronger, but three is unbreakable. Image many cords…. I would call it Established! Never to be moved! What a dream! Please pray for me, because I have seen the future, and it is becoming brighter and brighter everyday!
Let the sun shine!
