Sometimes So Soft.. But So Hard

Thought I would go different today and go a little slower but still dope. A little Talib Kweli & John Legend - Around My Way. One of my favorite Talib tracks. Sometimes I dont feel like listening to money hoes cars and clothes. Just sit back and listen to Talib.


Favorite Lyrics: "We be takin' gypsy cabs and chasin' 50 bags
They be laced with shitty swag and it really get me mad
The way we saluting flags, wrapping them around our heads
when we ain't become American till 9/11
Feeling like you gotta sneak into heaven
When the reverend looking like a pimp and the pimp look like the reverend"

MOS DEFinite

The reason why I havent posted in a while is because I had to find this video. Finally I found it and I (yes me) uploaded it on YouTube. My first youtube video post.

Its Mos Def in one of his masterpieces. This one he spits non-stop. Rarley do you see a video that is better than the actual song but this video is unreal. I am huge chappelle fan and a huge mos def fan so it just works. Ill post the video first.


Favorite Lyrics: "Test the limits of a dangerous force,
then you end up dumb famous and gone, and they shoutin out your name in they song"

LOL WATCH CHAPPELLES FACE THE WHOLE VIDEO.

Who is Wale? Find Out Here...

According to wikipedia Wale is: (pronounced wah-lay) was born Olubowale Victor Akintimehin but known as Wale Folarin, on September 21, 1984), is a Washington, D.C. area hip hop artist who has recently gained national and international attention for his mixture of hip-hop and go-go music. "Wale" is a backronym for "We Ain't Like Everyone".

According to me Wale is: a legit new rapper with a new style that you dont hear all the time. If I had to classify him, id say he is a mix between Kanye and Talib (thats a pretty good two people to be mixed with). He works with Mark Ronson who makes beats for lots of legit rappers and I think this guy is going to be big soon. He reps DC. Check out this song, called W.A.L.E.D.A.N.C.E.

DO ME AND YOURSELF A FAVOR.. TURN OFF THE TV. PLUG YOUR HEADPHONES IN AND LISTEN TO THIS SONG LINE FOR LINE. IT WILL BLOW YOU AWAY.

Favorite Lyrics: "I must admit, I bring creatine to the scene,
Your developmental league dont see my team."

"Cut beats im a fuckin word surgeon, scalpal sponge, lets work."

THE VIDEO IS PRETTY LEGIT ALSO. TAKES SOME MUSIC INTELLIGENCE TO FIGURE OUT ALL THE MESSAGES.

Remembering Album 1

Was sitting listening to Lupes new CD "The Cool" when I thought.. I need to listen to his old album "Food & Liquor". Thats where he really made dope tracks. Especially probably my second favorite song by Lupe ever (behind Hip Hop Saved My Life of course). Lupe Fiasco - Daydreaming ft. Jill Scott. Lupe hits the track hard. Check it.

Favorite Lyrics: "Now Come Everybody Lets Make Up & Be Cool,
We need a few more half naked up in the pool."

Rappers With Degrees?

Song today is from Kidz in The Hall called Drivin' Down The Block. Its a bunch of smart black guys who rap and actually use intelligence to make their tracks pretty dope. The duo met when they were enlisted @ The University of Pennsylvania for a talent show. Check out the track and the video.

Favorite Lyrics: "Im Stunting Like David Blane,
All Lookers Have Major Payne,
Sorta Like Damon Wayans"

THE FUNNIEST COMEDIAN EVER! DAWNELL RAWLINGS. JUST WATCH THE FIRST COUPLE OF MINUTES.

Don't Do Drugs.. MMMMM Kay

Kanye collaborates with N.E.R.D and creates a song about girls who do coke. The average dumb American doesnt understand what most somewhat intelligent rappers are talking about they just rap the lyrics. Song is pretty good. Where are all the girls standing in the line at the bathroom to do some lines? Check it.

Favorite Lyrics: "She stopped drinkin diet coke, She on that coke diet." "Its hot as fuck, but you just tryin to ski."

Breaking Out The Vocoder

Sorry for not posting in a while. Been busy with school and work.

Kanye West in whom I am a big fan of dropped a new track with Young Jeezy whom I am not such a big fan of. The track is hot, but I dont like that Kanye has starting using the vocoder in his tracks (like T-Pain) does. Makes it sound like a robot. Track is called "Put On" set to be on Young Jeezys new album releasing soon called "I am Trap". Kanye even talks about his recent divorce.. gotta actually LISTEN to the lyrics.

Favorite Lyrics: "Whats whiter than a napkin? Harder than a dinner plate?

Also check out Kanye playing connect 4 vs Jonah Hill.. pretty funny.
