As of now the album is entirely produced by Rakoon. The album is recorded in live instrumentation. A song has even been recorded inside the studio's restroom, due to the studio being booked. Even after a tedious turnout, more production took place there. "Rakoon's experience in production is pretty amazing. She's a fighter and it's impressive how comfortable she already has become. Surprisingly she loves to work by herself and she knows a lot about music. She seems to be in her own world and that's something we rarely see. She's going to be big! We believe in her and she now believes in herself. All she needed was that extra push. Look out for Rakoon!- Ricky (Friend; Guitarist) Rakoon: "My whole goal with this album is to make the music conscious and sort of share my opinion on certain things I have a strong believe in. I love music so much and I'm glad I get to be a part of it in a special way. I'm a very positive person, hopefully people are not too tough on me. But I'm ready to deal with whats to come. It's very important for me to stay true to myself and now that I have the tools in front of me I can let go and share my music with the world. My dream came true. How did I get here? Well, while my dad was busy making Stephanie Fierce a superstar, I went to school of music and learned how to play the piano and the guitar. My friend introduced me to the harp and I learned. I've always loved playing the drums when I was younger. The typical pots and pans were my thing when I was younger. Got myself into a lot of trouble (giggles) I don't consider myself to be in my sister's shadow. I just sort of liked working more behind the scenes, until I finally realized I was destined for this. I've been working on my album for almost 7 months now and I'm finally ready. My son, who's heart I won back, was my inspiration to keep going. And of course my sister Stephanie Fierce, for giving me the chance to get back up in life. More on Rakoon Soon! Edited by user 12 June 2011 02:51:11(UTC)  | Reason: Not specified

Genre: R&B/Quiet Storm Radio Release: June 12, 2011 Digital Download Release: June 12, 2011 "Calm Down With love" is the first single off "Action Matrem: My Solution". The song is an R&B/Quiet Storm song, that features mellow vocals from Rakoon over a mid-tempo, ambient like beat. The songs lyrics talk about men and their delusional ways of showing what love really is. Rakoon comes off as a love rebel, in a sweet seductive kind of way.

It means "Mother in Action" in latin. I'm shooting a music video series that will coincide with my music that will be titled "Action Matrem". I really hope you enjoy it. Me and my label are currently organizing some promo dates. So stay tuned for that....

Lyrics Look Like Erykah Badu "Window Seat" "So, presently I'm standing here right now You're so demanding Tell me what you want from me Concluding, concentrating On my music, lover and my babies Makes me wanna ask the lady For a ticket outta town So can I get a window seat? Don't want nobody next to me I just want a ticket outta town A look around and a safe touch down Can I get a window seat? Don't want nobody next to me I just want a chance to fly A chance to cry and a long bye-bye But I need you to want me Need you to miss me I need your attention I need you next me I need someone to clap for me I need your direction Somebody say, come back Come back, baby, come back I want you to need me Come back, come back, baby, come back Come back, come back, baby, come back Come back, come back, baby, come back So, in my mind I'm tusslin' Back and forth 'tween here and hustlin' I don't wanna time travel no more I wanna be here, I'm thinking On this porch I'm rockin' Back and forth like Lightning Hopkins If anybody speak to Scotty Tell him, beam me up So can I get a window seat? Don't want nobody next to me I just want a ticket outta town A look around and a safe touch down Can I get a window seat? Don't want nobody next to me I just want a chance to fly A chance to cry and a long bye-bye But I need you to miss me Need somebody come get me I need your attention Need your energy, yes, I do I need someone to clap for me I need your direction Somebody say, come back Come back, baby, come back I want you to need me Come back, come back, baby, come back Come back, come back, baby, come back Come back, come back, baby, come back But can I get a window seat? Don't want nobody next to me I just want a ticket outta town A look around and a safe touch down I just need a chance to fly A chance to cry and a long bye-bye" OOC: From now on I'm doing this new thing for RP called "Lyrics look like" from time time, which is similar to "Sounds Like". Hope you guys like the idea!
