NEWS:: Exonerated John Smith Released From Prison After 19 Years!!!
"I'm just thankful the same system that made the error was able to find the same avenue to get me out," Smith said to a throng of reporters who met him outside the jail Monday night.
"I'm not bitter at all. That ain't gonna get me nowhere, you know. I gotta move forward."
When asked what he was going to do next, Smith replied: "I'm gonna go home and hug my grandmother."
Smith was convicted of killing a man during a 1993 drive-by shooting in Los Angeles. Another man survived and was the single witness to the alleged crime. Two years ago, he recanted the testimony that led to Smith’s 1994 conviction for first-degree murder and attempted murder.
The 37-year-old was scheduled to be released on Friday, but the judge was out due to illness. Still, Smith was all smiles on Monday as the judge released him after nearly two decades behind bars: "Mr. Smith, you are now free."
The ruling evoked mixed emotions from Smith’s family.
"I’m happy. I’m sad. But the part of me that was in there with him, I’m free now, too," said Laura Neal, Smith’s grandmother and primary caretaker.
"I was hoping and praying that before I die he will be with me again," she said.
For Smith’s sister, who largely grew up without her older brother, Monday’s exoneration marked a monumental day for her and her family.
"I'm just so happy to have my brother back," she said through tears. "My grandma’s been sick and she’s been holding to see my brother, so this is a really big day for our family and we’re just so happy."
Smith’s case spurred the creation of Innocence Matters, a non-profit organization whose pro-bono legal team has been at the helm of his exoneration for three years.
"We actually became a non-profit in a hurry so that we could have him be our first client," founder Deirdre O’Connor told NBC4 on Friday.
Outside the courtroom Friday, O’Connor held back tears as she recalled having to tell Smith he would have to wait out the weekend in a jail cell.
"The closer you get to freedom, the harder it is to wait another second, another minute, another day," she said.
Still, the group remained largely optimistic that their client would be exonerated.
"We have a bit of a broken system and the fact that we can come in and make some systemic changes like this and help prevent it from happening to somebody else, it means the world," said Jessica Farris with Innocence Matters.
Smith says the first items on his agenda now that he's free: get a license and find a job.

THOUGHT OF THE DAY....
Do what you have to... To get what you want!!!
When I get up in the morning inspiration comes from everywhere. In the first twenty minutes I check everything that my name is attached too... (usually skim through tho). This morning my IG was lit up on my phone and as I skim I come across the homie (director) Nimi Hendrix... he was camping out for that iphone 5. A few of the comments under the picture made it seem like he was bugging. His only rebuttal, which made much sense to me, read: "My Mentality Is If I Want Something I Do What It Takes To Get It."
That thought process alone often separates the successful from the "I Wishers." Often times people are not humble enough to make sacrifices to accomplish the things in life that they want. You're an actor but are never at casting calls, you're a music artist but never in clubs where music is played and none of the popular dj's ever heard of you... you're attempting to be a CEO of a company but never study that business market or even read a book, let alone enroll in classes pertaining to that business.
Make that change, do whatever it takes to get what you want... most times it's what you don't want to do but is very necessary.

FACE TO FACE:: Dae (The Klasix)
Dae: Nothing much just got home... about to get ready to do some work
Esco: The Renaissance Guy!!
Dae: I know... Do you know how many times I've been called that and actually don't know what it means exactly...lol
Esco: I've been seeing the company name pop up a lot lately... What is the company and What do you guys do for those that don't know who you are?
Dae: Yeah man it's coming together!!!! we're working!!! ((((evil laugh))) lol nah... The company is The Klasix... it's a team of producers and artists. We make music...very well...and outside of that I do photography and artwork... and things of that nature
Esco: The Renaissance guy.... the man mastering many hats!!!
Dae: I figured that's what it meant... lol
Esco: Where are you from?
Dae: Newark Jersey! born and raised
Esco: Ok, Where did you get your start?
Dae: hmmm I started out doing music back in 2000. I use to dj and I use to make Jersey club music with my team Brick Bandits. I was that guy who taught himself how to do music and how to dj.
Esco: The best producers (in my eyes) started out as a dj
Dae: That's how I met Mic (partner in The Klasix). We both were dj's, we both went to Arts High School. We decided one day to team up becasue he liked my music and I like his and I always said "yo we gotta work together"... so... after years of bs... and just showing off we decided to create The Klasix... 2003
Esco: Dope, so The Klasix are a duo. How would you explain you sound?
Dae: I would say our sound is BIG, very orchestrated, very drummy, musical, syncopated, unexpected, adventurous. I think our music is a trip. lol. I'm a very emo musician so my music is very emotional. if that makes any sense.
Esco: It makes much sense to me... what are your weapons of choice in the studio?
Dae: Hmmm good one... I'm simple... Im a reason / protools head... I tend to make the best out of sound... so rather it's fruityloops or logic or protools or reasons... The platforms are different but the person who's using it isnt...
Esco: Exactly... and do you or Mic play any live instruments?
Dae: No but we play like they're live... You know we get asked that a lot!
somebody actually argued with us telling me that we had a drummer... lol
Esco: by the way, I'm listening to "I Couldn't Help It" as we talk...
Dae: lol omg no! lol
Esco: lol.... with that said, who have you guys worked with?
Dae: Joe Budden, Slaughterhouse, Idris Elba, Kat Deluna, ummm J.Cole, Buckwild, Joel Ortiz, Emanny, that's all I can think of right now Karly Redd... lol
Esco: Nice discography..... where does your inpiration come from?
Dae: My inspiration comes form different places. If you ever met anybody that have worked with me or work with me they'll tell you, I'm a scatter brain or I'm weird or I think a lot or I'm a thinker. All recipes for great music.
wait did I answer that right? let me try that again....
Esco: lol... I get it, every creative person is different. I've seen it all. shit Budden writes in the strip club...lmao

Esco: VERY WIDE RANGE!!!
Dae: oh and LONDON ORCHESTRA
Esco: Aside from the music... you do photography. What's the deal with that?
Dae: lol It's a huge part of me. I'm a very visual person. Photography is that other creative outlet for me.
I have dreams of doing Nation Campaigns and cd artwork for artists and just being able to tell people's stories through art. Can you imagine...seeing... a Dae of The Klasix version of Esquire Magazine, or Complex, or Vibe, or Vogue, or V Magazine? I have a point of view and I just want to share it
Esco: Make it happen.. If you want opportunity, create it!!!
Dae: That's exactly what I've been doing!
Esco: Fucking dope... you just named a variety of publications, I'll act like I don't know anything. Have you ever worked with any of them?
Dae: Currently doing some work with VIBE VIXEN Magazine
Esco: So what unsigned artists are you currently working with?
Dae: I'm currently working with our artists... Aaron Byrd, he's an AMAZING singer song writer, crazy talented and very visual. He's my one of my favorite singers and favorite song writers. Also working with a female rap artist by the name of Swiney. She's also really talented an amazing performer and just all around talented. Also working with ... Jay Saint, Bennaton, J.Y. and.... that's all I can think of right now
Esco: cool, btw I seen the Teyana pics... if I were in Jersey yesterday I most definitely would have had to stop by...
Dae: lol ha ha ha lol... she's really cool man. Then entire Vibe Vixen shoot she was so cool.
Esco: Is there any advice that you can give young producers., photographers coming into the business?
Dae: Producers... I don't know ... just keep working... get with the right team... that's all
Photographers.... Study... that's all I do... I'm still learning

FACE TO FACE:: LaMonica McIver
Esco: So Miss McIver.... I've known you for a while now and we first met at a party initially. Tell me who are you?
LM: Ummm well that's a long answer to sum up. I'm a 26 Year Old African American Woman from the City of Newark. I'm an Educator, a Mentor, and a Life Learner.
Esco: Ok... I've met some pretty cool people in my short life span, I must say that you're one of them. What is it that you do?
LM: For a living?
Esco: Yes
LM: Currently, I'm a HR Partner for Newark Public Schools. I serve as a HR Generalist to almost 30 schools. That includes hiring Teachers, School Leaders, and School Support Staff Members. I basically make sure each school I manage has effective staff members who are on the job 24/7 and making sure ineffective ones are not. That's what I do for a "Living".
Esco: I know for a fact that you are involved in so much... can you touch on some of those things?
LM: I'm involved in a little bit of politics and community development within the City of Newark. I've written for a few online magazines ( Celebrity Cafe & Urban Magazine) in the past and I currently have my own blog (www.asknjblogprincess.com) that I update regularly. My newest adventure is my Non-Profit Organization called Newark G.A.L.S., Inc. that I Co-Founded with my Good Lady Friend/Sister Genique Hamilton. It is truly our passion to start a strong mentoring program for young women from the City of Newark and surrounding cities.
Esco: Nice, where does your inspiration come from? Most begin making money, leave their urban community and never look back.
LM: Well, I had a very challenging childhood and upbringing, so when I was about 18 I made a promise to myself to exceed all expectations and succeed at all I had visioned. The inspiration to help people and help young girls especially, comes from my thankfulness to all those who helped me and continue to help me,
Esco: So, you dig deep from within... First thought was "anybody can make it if magic made it" lol
I totally understand though. I know of your challenges, would you like to share with the readers?
LM: Lol. I guess. I'm not the typical dig deep within person, well at least I don't think so. I know others do but I don't! :)
Esco: You really are... we've had so many deep conversations. You're special... whether you realize it or not.
LM: Well just like thousands of other people I grew up poor and had to experience living with a Mom who was addicted to Drugs for all my childhood and some of my adulthood life. That itself was difficult, challenging, and all thee above. Almost impossible to deal with but I made it through.
Well thank you! :) I'm truly honored!
Esco: You know what it is... more than welcome. You've inspired me on some levels. This isn't about me though, it's your interview. Now the mentoring, what ages are you reaching out to?
LM: Ages 12 thru 20.
Esco: The impressionable ages... Is there a location for them to meet up at or do you guys go to the kids?
LM: Well as of right now we have partnered with about 26 schools in Newark to recruit and gather girls. This is our pilot year so it's a trial run but a serious trial run before we expand. We'll be accepting 21 young women into the program this year.
Esco: This is a big deal and much needed in urban America... I salute you. How can women get involved and help out?
LM: For all of those lovely and inspiring women out there that want to get involved any kind of way can email us at newarkgalsinc@gmail.com We can use all the help we can get!!!!
Esco: Is there anything that you would like to share that I didn't touch on?
LM: No, Thank you for this opportunity!!! I'm flattered and as always it's such a pleasure to know you and work with you. Hope to see you down at the Breast Cancer Walk on October 21st, downtown Newark. Sign up at http://main.acsevents.org/goto/NewarkGALSINCMakingStrides and bring the Boys too!!! :)
LM: Thanks again! To all the readers Keep Pushing, Keep Living, and Keep Focus!
Esco: Cool, thanks LaMonica... I once again enjoyed your time. I will put that walk on my calendar and spread the word.
LM: Thanks! :) <3

Face to Face with Daria Jones
Esco: You hit me saying that you wanted to talk, let's talk
Daria: yes lets talk.... hmmm where do I begin?
Esco: Who is Daria Jones?
Daria: I hit you up because I am ready for the people to know who Daria Jones really is
Daria Jones is Soulful, Melodic, Beautiful Child of God. wanting to touch the lives of others through song. through music.
Esco: I'm going to act like I have never met you a day of my life and have no idea what your voice sounds like
Daria: Yea I figured that
Esco: What is it that you do?
Daria: I want to touch lives through lyrics, I am a singer/songwriter... Mentor to students (okay i just got nervous) lmao
Esco: Why? How Long have you been singing and songwriting?
Daria: this is off the record unless you want to put it... nervous because I feel like I've been off the scene but really I haven't I just haven't been doing things for Daria
Esco: Everything is on the record... Miss. So yes how long have you been singing and songwriting; where did you get your start?
Daria: okay I have been singing since I was a child, my mom always had me in pageants and talent shows. I've been songwriting for the last 8-10 years. A group of producers I started working with just to reference songs saw something in me that I didn't see in myself... They started pushing me to write and be expressive in music. Ever since I've been going... the pen and paper have become my best friend..
Esco: Dope... What do you feel your strong point is as far as your talents go?
Daria: I feel like my strongest point is my voice. I think no matter what it is I'm singing the passion behind what I do always shows.
Esco: Who are some of the artists that inspire you
Daria: Hmmmm the list is so long, but I will keep it simple, of course our Beloved Whitney Houston, nobody in the world like her... now then there is Jill Scott, Patti Labelle, lately Nina Simone has become an inspiration I've been listening to her on and off. Also Billy Holiday, Ella Fitzgerald, Stevie Wonder, Donni Hathaway
Esco: At this point in your career, which direction would you like to go?
Daria: At this point I would like to put out a few more projects. I am actually trying to write for other artist and more so pursue a writing career along with my personal goals as an artist.
Esco: I've played some of your songs around strangers and they thought I was playing an unreleased Beyonce track, have you ever heard that reference before?
Daria: I get that a lot, and I take it as a huge compliment. Beyonce is a great entertainer. I think in some of my more recent works people will be able to distinguish the two voices as I have developed into becoming more in tune with my craft and developing it in who I am.
Esco: Cool...
Daria: yea I worded that wrong but you get what I'm saying... lolol
Esco: I was on the phone with Rsonist (The Heatmakerz) yesterday... we were discussing the difference between a singer, rapper or even a producer and an artist. Do you understand what the difference between singing and being an artist is?
Daria: There is a complete difference... I call myself a singer but I would love to be considered an artist.. most ppl don't understand what you mean when you say "I'm an artist" I feel like I am an artist because I create, I feel, I express what it is I want you as "the listener" to feel, I express my pain, love, joy sadness etc. all my emotions in my song. A singer can't do that. I live what I create and feel. and want you to live it when you hear it... I feel like thats why I am an artist... Do you agree??? As an artist whether your a producer, rapper, singer, poet, painter, builder its all because of CREATIVE EXPRESSION...
Esco: Yes, also an artist will do whatever it takes to get to the point where they need to be... there is no limit to what they will do to obtain their dreams.
Daria: YES! NO LIMITS TO OBTAINING THE DREAM... GRIND
Esco: I agree that's why I feel that there isn't any bad music because it's all the expressions of the person
Daria: I disagree... There is bad music... Lol.. Because there are some artist out here who while yes your expressing yourself, and that may be your reality... But music is supposed to change lives for the better... I had a conversation with a producer recently and what he said made so much since... Why are we artist creating music if we can't change a mind, a heart, a soul for the better.. (not in those exact words, but my interpretation) and if you ask anyone in my circle they know I'm all about creating positive atmosphere
Esco: That is your reality... some people don't have a positive aura.
Daria: Yes while that is my reality, I see what goes on around me and its not pretty...I feel like some artist and I am not knocking anybody for what they do, because I will always respect anyones craft, I do feel like when your in a certain light... WE ARE SUPPOSED TO TEACH AND TAKE LEAD. and that is when CHANGE needs to come about. AS AN ARTIST I have a responsibility to CREATE HOPE! My personal feelings and opinions..
Esco: Of course and some don't have the Creative Control to do so
Daria: TRUTH IN THAT!!! NO CREATIVE CONTROL. thats when you ask the question "when do I STOP selling MY SOUL to the DEVIL???
Esco: Hmmm Religion.... so back to the music.
Daria: LMAO... NO religion... then let me rephrase the question.. "When do I STOP selling into WHAT THE MAN says I have to?' In all honesty because we know who the man is? I'm just saying... When do I as an artist STOP signing my life away and what it is that I really believe in.... when do I begin my own empire? Its so deep.. I just know that it can be done... Do I have to live on top of the world or can I just live comfortably making a salary doing what I love.. Not struggling but still being an artist..
Esco: Things have drastically changed in the music business... you have to be presented to them as a complete package already. Today do you feel like you are the complete package to be presented to an office such as Atlantic or Universal?
Presenting to Atlantic or Universal... hmmmm
Daria: Nope! I'm too curvy for them. My sex appeal won't sell so "they" say...
Esco: Or how about playing chess with them as you would get what you need to use to create your own comfort... not a question but a thought... Jill did it
Daria: Jill did it.. but Jill did it with Hidden Beach... Creating their own...
Kelly did it... but they tried to hide Kelly for a really long time. I think I have what it takes I believe I am a total package.. I just know what I have been told and what major labels continue to show and want to sell... if a major label backed me.. I'd sell... but I think they rather someone who can sell sex to the imagination...
Esco: With that said, what do you think would capture fans?
Daria: For me to capture my supporters hmmm point blank period no boasting... MY VOICE is enough... I'm no performer I don't jump around on stage I simply open my mouth and let the words and melody's flow. As I slip the people into a trance with my soft n sweet tone,
Esco: I've been to labels... they still search for talent but its far from traditional... they're actually on blogs looking for people; looking for videos, looking for music so nowadays it's more of an internet presence thing than anything. Is there anyone, or rather with who mainstream or underground that you will love to work with?
Daria: hmmm. there are quite a few mainstream and underground artist that I would like to work with... Jill Scott and Beyonce definitely. Marsha Ambroise, from floetry, Carvin Hagins, producer, Musiq the Soul Child and Anthony Hamilton. Suzy Q, Nick Wiz, Stress (worked with him before, but on his projects, can't wait to work with him on mine) Dox Diggla I would like to bring him in as a writer on future projects... Rae (singer/Songwriter) for Dee Town Entertainment.
Esco: Dope, familiar with all...
Esco: What else would u like to talk to me about? Of course this isnt an interview... remember. I got nothing but time... I'm sitting on the deck sipping Sangria.
Daria: damn can I get some Sangria... lololol. Well I am currently working and writing some new stuff... I would like to release this project by the end of 2012 or early 2013 no later than February. I will be shooting a video for a song I did called Get To Know You this weekend... The song was produced by Stress and of course written by me. Its old but new to everyone else. I have to remember whats OLD to me, is NEW to everyone else. I have songs that I haven't release out of fear that no one will like it or its not what people want to hear... which is why I did have to take the time out for Daria to sit back and reevaluate my situation, am I an artist? or am I just doing this because is this what ppl expect me to do because I know how to sing? those are questions I had to ask myself over and over time and time again
Esco: You should really try to conquer that fear, because even as an R&B artists you can put out mix tapes. Theres an artist by the name of Sonyae Elise, I pretty much got to know through her mixtapes which are super dope... I'm just giving you some formula to follow. Doing so you will create your internet presence.
Daria: Yes which is why I reached out to you. I am so over the fear, I know who Daria Jones is today. I've been torn down broken into pieces over the last few years by people. Felt like I wasn't good enough to do this, that I wasn't worthy of doing what I LOVED TO DO SO MUCH!
I am ready to conquer and gain control of my life and my music.
Esco: That is part of the road to success honestly. If you have never wanted to quit then you have never worked hard enough.
Daria: Speaking of mixed tapes.. I reached out to DJ Steel for some help on that... Timing was a little off for both of us.. so I am hoping within the next month or so...
Then that just lets me know that I have been working hard... Because I was at the point I wanted to quit and give it all up...
Esco: I think with ther should be one the DJ and one without, kind of like an album.. it's up to you though.
Daria: Yea I reached out to him more so for his help and insight on the project... Just wanted him to do an intro and outro... nothing in between... And most likely I would record it with him ...
Esco: I push the internet thing so much... as if I worked for Google. It really is important but there has to be a formula, a POA that you follow. Yes, Steel's great at executive producing a project... he has the ear to place songs right where they need to be.
Daria: I'm gonna look up the artist Sonyae. Sounds dope... and coming from you I'm sure...
Esco: Yup, Sonyae Elise...
Daria: Yea thats what I was thinking about Steel.. I just felt like he would be a great help and asset to the project...
Esco: I've seen pics of you in other countries... care to talk about that?
Daria: Yes I've been traveling with the Harlem Gospel Choir... Its been a pretty amazing experience. I'm very grateful n blessed for the opportunity. I didn't think it was such a big deal at first because it wasn't my solo career. Yes big Deal to Travel n see the world but I felt like well its not my thing. And then one conversation with a really good friend Dox he said "D dot, look at it this way, you still get to do what you love" those simple words changed my thought pattern completely. I get to do what I love. Its not my music but I get to touch the stage n be able to touch a life through song
Esco: I love traveling so I think anyway it gets done is a great way!!!
Daria: Well yes I loved the traveling. And I loved being away with the people I have been able to tour with...they have become a major part of my life. My new family n friends who I know will be there forever
Esco: So, we've touched on alot... anything I didn't talk about that you would like to discuss?
Daria: Uuum I think we've covered the majority of everything.. do u? I mean Is there anything else you would like to know. I basically just wanted my supporters to know I'm still around n still working hard at this. That even though I wanted to quit I won't and I can't. I want those that don't know about me to get ready and be prepared to hear more from me. ANOTHER REALLY GREAT FRIEND he will remain nameless lets call him E-knot(Esco) said "if u want opportunity you have to create it" And that's exactly what I intend on doing . :) Peace Love n Butterflies I'm out
