Another Tuesday and countdown to the end of the year.
Was a little bit down today but still it wouldn't stop me from participating in one of the biggest movement on hive 馃敟
Give it up for...
A movement started by our man @ablaze due to his universal love for music 馃槂鉂わ笍
To join in is easy and can be done in 3 steps
Just like that you're already part of the movement.
You're song would be added to the hive music library and you'll earn a lil bit of that stardom life 馃槂馃敟.
Now for my entry this week, I would like to write about 3 tunes from one of my greatest rapper...
Jcole is one rapper that has been always delivering. Since his single Middle Child that legit made waves the music industry and even before that.
He's one of those rappers that many can boast of where he has legit no bad track
And it's probably true 馃槂馃槏
Although he doesn't have any bad song, there are some of his that are absolutely fire 馃敟馃敟
From that list of hot songs I'll talk about my best 3 here.
This is one song which I can never forget.
Once I hear the intro bit I'm already nodding my head and ready to rap it through.
In this song, Jcole talks about the life of music. Using his friend and himself, he talks about how easy it is for an idol to fall, how easy it is to leave yourself and take the easy road because it's what everyone is doing and everyone is earning from it.
In the music industry he talks about singers not writing their songs and then they come on stage to sing about it as if it's theirs.
In the second stanza, he talks about his friend who is writing his own verses, talking about how he's always stressed and impatient, wanting to blow and wishes fans to acknowledge his work, slowly losing himself.
In the third stanza, he talks about the rappers who have gotten the spotlight due to their own self written songs.
Talking about how they feel pompous simply because they have or are making it.
He includes himself in this category and claims he isn't going to stop being proud of himself, he'll always encourage those that are being real and he'll try his best to be real too 馃槏鉂わ笍
In this track, Cole talks about the loss of someone's balance, that shift of the world when one experiences something.
In the first stanza, he talks about a girl who'll do anything to be accepted with the chorus telling her to get herself straight, hold onto her balance.
In the second stanza, he then talks about his community, the crime wave going through there and how it affects those that are there.
He writes to his friends, nigga's and homies, telling them to hold on and keep their greed in check.
The third stanza is to himself, talking about a girl that is perfect for him yet how she's making him to lose his balance on his friends.
In actuality, I feel like I've written about this song before although I can't find it in any of my notes.
One thing that's mad noticeable about this song is the guitar notes in the beat which gives the song a kind of soulful feeling.馃敟鉂わ笍
Now this... THIS!!!
This is a song that shouldn't be trifled with.
A song written by Jcole"s production company Dreamville feat Midwest rappers Smada and Smino
It talks about the sacrifices these individual artists had to make to get to where they where.
Calling out their memories and actions, it's a real beautiful song.
