Happy Holiday Blog!!!!

Happy Holidays to you! I am praying that everyone's holiday is blessed.

Last Sunday I recorded two new songs: "Say Oh;" which is a fast pop dance song and "Me and You- Part Two;" which is the grown and sexy upgrade to "Me and You." I am so excited, I can't wait for y'all to hear them!! I can guarantee that "Say Oh" will have you moving all over the place. 

Although many people make holiday resolutions and break them, it is always to set goals for yourself. One of mine in 2011 is to perform everywhere so people can see who Casaundra is.

I want to thank those who purchased "What Kind of Love- Part One." I have received so much positive feedback and it is overwhelming. I am so glad you all enjoy it! Make sure to keep spreading the word- share links, Facebook, Twitter, text and dare I say (if people still even use it) Myspace lol. The point is just to share my music with someone so they can enjoy it too! Amazon.com: What Kind of Love: Casaundra: MP3 Downloads

Thanksgiving Holiday Blog!!!!

Hey Family!

I would be lying to you if I said I wasn't busy but busy people get things done. 

Let me assure you; we have not forgot about you at 4EverBeautiful Music. "What Kind of Love" is about to drop VERY SOON; I promise- which brings me to my next point. I would not have imagined how much work, time, and dedication goes into a music project. For this EP alone, I have encountered so many business avenues that needed conquered in order to move forward. It see how imperative it is to have a good team behind you in order to ensure your best interest and productivity.

"What Kind of Love" is very special to me because it is my first EP and despite how much work we put forth for this project alone, I am excited and am already working on the next project!! (Hope you're ready to dance...)

It is so exciting to hear people say, "I heard your song on the radio." That makes me happy and want to work harder; it motivates me. After all, why wouldn't I want to take over the airwaves, the net and everywhere for that matter, lol. That being said, I need your help. Please continue to visit Facebook Player for Casaundra | Pop; subscribe, share and join my street team for exclusive downloads and goodies. 

Your continued support is golden. I personally think I have the best fans in the world and I have you to thank for that so THANK YOU!!!! ♥

I wish you all a blessed Thanksgiving holiday week!

Time Is Just Flying!

Hey all!!

I tell ya, the time is just flying!!

    Y'all ever feel like there's too much to do and not enough time? I feel like that often.

Last Thursday, I sang "Yeah Right" and "Me and You" from my anticipated EP "Part One: What Kind of Love" for the Hot 91 Business Mixer. Also, last Friday, I sang for BETs Black College Tour. Both experiences were great and I look forward to doing more gigs.

    I want to take a moment to encourage you. I had a really rough day yesterday. This morning I listened to "Thankful" on replay. It is amazing how you can write something and not know how much it means to you until years later- that is what happened to me. I found that the words ministered to my soul and I was reminded that no matter what circumstances may come, giving God the glory is essential. He loves us more than we could ever imagine and if we follow Him we will be blessed. I hope "Thankful" helps you out too; whatever your situation may be.

Some more exciting news- I wrote four new songs within the past couple days: "Out of This World," "Don't Have to Cry," "Say Oh," "Check" and "Epiphany." Be looking out for those on my next project!!!

As always, I thank you so much for the love and support!!

What Kind of Love almost done cooking!!!!

Heeeey!!

I hope everyone has been as productive and busy as myself because believe it or not, busy people get things done!

Within the past week, I got my feet wet in radio audio production and I must say I'm loving the experience! Everyday I am learning new things and it is so very exciting!

I am just thankful to the Lord for my gifts and I pray that you use what gifts He's given you or they will be taken away- You may even learn of gifts you never knew you had!!

People, people, people... are you as excited as I am about "Part One: What Kind of Love???" I can not wait to drop this for yall. I have no doubt that you will be happy with the outcome of my very first EP! I'll tell you this; after this EP drops, yall better be ready to take off for the ride with us at 4EverBeautiful Music because we are on the move- hope you can keep up!!!

Well,

I have some more beautiful music to create so I will catch you on the flip-side!

Love you much!!!

The recording process

Hey!

I want to share with you my excitement about this recording process- I've been in the studio the past two days and got some solid work done and guess what... the EP is halfway done!!!! I am so elated to be able to share with you my music soon. I am meeting some awesome people and let me just say that my studio engineers are great!

God never ceases to amaze me and He is nothing short of Amazing so I continuously thank Him for my musical gifts and for always providing what is needed.

Again, I want to encourage you to pursue your passion full-heartedly; just go for it!

*Also, I still need YOUR help on the KickStarter project so please, get involved; I know you saw the link on the main page of this website so just click on it and make that happen, got it? lol.

Thank you much again; stay blessed.

What's up everyone?

Hey Everyone,

Hope you are well.

Lately I have been extremely frustrated with the way people handle business. I've been recognizing a negative trend of disappointment in people as far as not keeping their word and hearing people talk but not produce substance. It has been an emotional roller coaster for me but I am realizing that everything is a learning experience. I think Aaliyah said it best when she said "when if at first you don't succeed, dust yourself off and try again..."

I am also going through a huge transitional phase right now. I am definitely moving into a new season. Sometimes it's hard for us as humans because we often want to go back to what is old because it is comfortable and we are afraid of the new possibilities. I am embracing what I want for me and not what other's expect from me and am I moving forward from here. For those of you who are afraid to take that next step in your life, I encourage you to do you because you can't please EVERYBODY and you will have built-up resentment if you don't follow YOUR dream.

Besides that, I am SUPER excited to get into the studio this weekend Saturday and Sunday!!! My fellow artist out there know that unexplainable joy you get from the studio atmosphere; shout out to you!! Be looking out for this EP soon yall!!

As always,

Thank you much for supporting me.

My First blog

Hey everyone,

I must say that after this past week I have a renewed sense of motivation. There were a series of events that led up to this fresh mindset, making me want to work harder in general; more specifically on my music. One thing I am learning very quickly is: having patience is one thing, but when you're dealing with business there are things that need done in a timely manner. You can't sit around and think that your craft will work on itself, you have to be diligent and work towards greatness. No one should ever be more excited about your passion than you are; otherwise it wouldn't be a passion; a hobby perhaps. Anyway, I just wanted to share some things with you that I am learning and hope that you can pull something positive from it and be inspired. As always, thank you for your love and support.

Smiles and Hugs ♥♥
