RnB Soul Open Mics: 10 Rules of Engagement

10) Learn "Sweet Thing" by Chaka in Every Key.....
9) Invest in a "poker face" (practice a face in your spare time that won't let on that someone has no talent)
8) Learn every Jill Scott song
7) Be prepared to scream "Go in Poet !"
6) Don't back up the kat who made the track that he wants you to play over while he forgets his rhyme because he will want you to produce tracks for him for free
5) Learn "Sweet Thing" again
4) Develop a tolerance for "My Funny Valentine" (and be prepared to go to the B section at anytime)..LoL
3) If alergic to profanity, inscents, shea butter, ion bracelets, $5dollar eps(2 for $10), references to fruit, the moon, the stars, the word "energy", : Don't show up
2) be prepared to be blamed for a singer not knowing a song, and more than likely it will be a song that she wrote that you never heard a day in your life that has no repeating melody notes for 3 consecutive minutes!...LoL (oh and it will modulate )
1) Learn "Sweet Thing"
