I have no ideas of what to post, so I’ll throw some more music at you.  I really don’t think anyone looks at this or even gives a crap, but we’re doing it anyway!

We’re starting with a chill cut off the upcoming Lupe Fiasco album.  This is a great track to just relax to, perfect listening for my last 2 days at work.

Next we’ll go to Jay Rock’s Life’s a Cycle.  Another quite chill track.  Jay Rock is very outspoken about being a blood, and this song goes into what he would be if he wasn’t a gang member.  He says that he could be at UCLA getting his masters or even his PhD.  I prefer the part that says he could be a scientist because he likes trees, or a botanist.  Rappers are so funny.

Next, Rich Boy’s Cover Girl.  I like Rich Boy.  It’s hard to not like a guy who enjoys throwing D’s on things.  Again, another very chill song. Here he’s talking to all the ladies, but mostly Egyptians and Italians, and wanting them to drop it down and whip it back.

I know absolutely nothing about Crooked I.  I have no idea where he came from or what label he’s on or what set he reps (something called COB which appears to stand for Crip or Blood, and that makes no sense to me).  Anyway he raps over John Hitt’s favorite song of all time, Fireflies!  If you know who John Hitt, then you probably already know about his love for Fireflies.  The highlight of this song is the end when he tries to sing the chorus, which is tough to do when you barely know the words.  Enjoy.

  1. My only comment is WTF is with people liking Fireflies? Chris loves that song like no other. I think it’s gay.
