@jaceonetime,

Publishing poetry through a publisher is really hard. You either have to have connections, previous publications, or get really lucky. I’ve been sending some of my stuff off but nothing yet.

Ok… here’s a little something I call “The Condition Of Life”

POSTPONE THE APOCALYPSE
The caustic brevity of our existence is inevitably our persistence.
We are the implanters, the advancers.
I beam down to the futuristic cities, break up their leadership committees, and suck on their wive’s titties.
And yeah, my rhymes get a little gritty… but I write them for the subcommittees. Take it or leave it.

I am a raconteur, a grandeur voyeur, a force majeur. I am not de rigour, and yes I know about Louis Pasteur. Regardless, I will leave this.

People comin’ through and we’re gonna find you. Maybe you should start anew, construe a canoe, pursue a tattoo even though it’s taboo. If you want to… I can give you some analytical review.

Language is devolving.

“Oh poo! I think I caught swine flu.” I need a cure, it’s on debut.
Up my nose ’cause I believe you. Paying not to catch something; now I bid you adieu.

You’re pretty hard to get into, but someone would sure like to get in you.
Pursue a screw, imbue you with Mr. McNew.
They wear such pretty clothes, nobody knows their demons
this is the age of reason, it will manifest in due season.

Contageous, we spread across this nation. What I’m droppin’ is inspiration, so technically I breathe creation.
I part the sea of life, hoping more to come through. No I don’t want a wife, I just want you.
I want to see your soul; a single brick in the whole.

Please break for the enlightened and of course they’ll not be frightened.
It’s what they’re waiting for… it’s the next dirty Asian whore;
it’s time when shit hit’s the floor, what the fuck are we fighting for?

Yeah I’m a teacher, I’m also a student
I’m a philosopher, I consider it prudent
I care about science ’cause others abuse it
and I rhyme to time so we can hear true shit
drop me a line I might wanna use it
but right now I’ll touch on this new bit

Inadequate health care is quite a scare I admit, but I have clean water to drink… No shit.
Abortion may be contortion but I sleep at night knowing WE have my back.
And yeah, I heard of Tiger. I heard he cheated on his wife multiple times… Thanks for letting me hear about other people’s problems all the time. He’s my little cousin’s role model. Thanks for tainting the moment. We shouldn’t care.

In this great country, with great power, it becomes great… with responsibility.

If you deal me a card I’m gonna use it
and trust in WE because that’ll fuel it
don’t say goodbye unless you lose it
you can get high and I won’t give two shits
I might be a guy but I’ve got two hips
call me lazy, my brain; I use it
call me crazy… I might fuckin’ lose it

And I know he cares, that’s why I do this
Jesus introduced me to this motherfuckin’ game
that’s why I create; all in his name…
but he’s afraid, you’ve, uh, forgot about Buddha
and he’d like you to know, we’ve, uh, got nowhere to go

Our father, ART, in heaven hallowed be thy name.
Thy kingdom will come, thy will will be done, on earth
for it could/should/would/ and WILL be heaven.

Oh my god is this kid foreal? He’s spitting words that I can feel.
Like I said… I don’t care… I’m here for your soul.

Uttering words long spent unspoken, we are revolutionaries awoken.
Rhyme to time leave false idols broken;
make moves don’t live life simply hopin.

From a young age I took to the page,
wrote rhymes to explain the times.
It was always the abstract that consumed me
and the good times ate my soul; doomed me.

A long search for love landed me looking through memories for a glimpse of greatness.
You must realize you are your own creator limited only by that which you accept as reality and finality will follow.

Us humans are hollow and by nature fill the whole with things, hobbies, and ideas. Whether you choose thinking or drinking… what to do is up to you.

There is only one moment, and it is NOW, and it is eternity.

The time is tickin, the seconds are non existent, melodic rhythms, to sooth your chronic sicknesses, put aside economic differences, this is not the genesis, maybe the revelation the television showing demonic images, I am an immigrant so the abercrombie citizens wanna bottle me into a hollow prison system are you listening, your mission is, is to know what your position is, i’ll be gone in 60 seconds, for political sentences, bang, pulling the trigger pulling the

Strings, is a ruling regime, a bully that fully understands what

Your doing during your sleep, curiously, keeping an eye like security, are you hearing me, what there doing is weak, sauce, underneath god, there should’nt be any middlemen benefiting off of the innocent, men and women struggling trying to get em some medicine,
making minimum to diddily squat, these messages I’m riddling cause I finna get popped

My top 5 MC’s:

Guru (of Gang Starr)
Aesop Rock
Illogic
MF DOOM
Nas

But the 5th one is always changing.

If you’re just getting into hip-hop, ask yourself this: Do you want a good message, or good rhyming?

The best rhymer is MF DOOM.
The best messages come from Guru of Gang Starr.
And the best of the abstract/underground scene is Aesop Rock. Unless you wanna go REAL abstract, in which case cLOUDDEAD (or the entire record label Anticon) is pretty much the most abstract you can go in the hip hop genre.

5 of today: J. Cole, Kendrick Lamar, Drake, Kanye West, and that fifth one could be anyone independent or someone fading out still spittin like nas, em, or jay-z. ASAP Rocky’s real nice though. and macklemore and cool independent dudes. Oh and once indicud comes out Kid Cudi is going to officially find his way into the prime top artists of this era.
3: Tupac, Eminem, and maybe biggie, kendrick (its just a lil early, same goes for cole), jayz or kanye west, nas..? they all dope, its hard to say.

@shirbean, Duuuude nice picks.

Top 5 rappers/rap groups still alive and doing it.

Aesop Rock, Foreign Beggars, Mos Def, Atmosphere, Eminem – although the last 3 really lack meaningful subject matter lately and their flow has escaped them.
Tsk tsk

Top 3 deceased or broken up groups.

Tribe, Pharcyde, Binary Star

@jaceonetime,
Y’all in the ocean coastin’ with the sails out
Hey America thanks for the bailouts
I made off like the banco ambrosiano
Got away scott free like el Vaticano
Acitvists act a bitch, get mad at me
‘Cause I’m a tax free charity
80% to the staff and company
And 20% to the homeless and hungry
The country gotta pay the fed reserve
Kick back to the banksters haven’t you heard
You protest cops or patrols on the street
But I bought city hall so I own the police
Email, facebook and the shit you tweet
Own the phone companies so I heard you speaking
My suggestion is no correction, no elections, sex with no affection
No invention would benefit the world of man
Will exist till I got the money in my hand
World bank, interest rate, damn rape on the spot
But I’m a gangster you gon’ take my money like it or not, nigga
(I got your country in my pocket, motherfucker!)

Bedroom walls, bathroom stalls, gossip drawling on and on
The song goes:
no harm comes of psalms that ponder upon
the blossoms of nature possible
Dig up fossils,
philosophize prosperous
but watch that shit
I’ve seen the road’s end, the kid was on some solstice gig
Shitted out of luck and sought the tow truck – FUCK!
Starstruck and dazed spending days ill behaved
Shame. Damn shame. Haze all looks the same-same.
Feigned the crutch
Destruction panes away from suchness
A mess is a mess, amateur chess
Couldn’t fess up to my best self
Some stride left underneath his belt
Seemed like he had some foul breath left
Is that mental health?
Sike, no, fuck no
Cresting on a crust so
I’m forlorn to the foreign
These lands are being torn
Worn by the wrong lord
Warning and foretoldings don’t seem to split the unfolding of our own morgue
That’s cold.
So I was told I’m a badass mother fucker.
I dissipate structure out of dumb luck
Trust myself like gunk to funk
Like crunk is already drunk
Sunken captain though
Lacking action – too slow
Not that hard to speed it up bro though yo.
Oh, no.
Not at all
I’m St. Paul’s Saul.
I’m the writing on the wall.
Like Jesus did that shroud shit out of service, irking y’alls feminine purpose
out of spite for worthless surfaceness disturbances
Let me check, yup, certified.
I’d like to die crying, wouldn’t that be worth while?
Wouldn’t you be secretly cracking a smile under the tear tide, aye? Am My rite?

@danfontaine, Mos Def lacking subject matter lately? Have you listened to his Niggas In Paris Remix?

No one has mentioned Lupe Fiasco yet? What do you guys think? Definitely worth checking out his stuff:

Words I Never Said, Form Follows Function, Around My Way, Put You On Game, Kick Push, The Instrumental & American Terrorist II.

Also, I’d like to recommend some independent UK hip-hop artists; Lowkey & Mic Righteous in particular. It’s worth checking out Mic Righteous’ Fire in The Booth Part 2 and Lowkey’s song with Immortal Technique: Voice of the Voiceless. I’d recommend checking more of Lowkey’s stuff, one of my favourite artists of all time.

I also write some lyrics here and there, I might post some sometime :).

@emnes, Rappers are some egotistical, pathological fucks in general. I find it very hard to see eye-to-eye or to look up to hardly any rap artists these days. Mos Def used to be majestic but now he’s an idiot, trying to spread out too much – trying to be popular.

@tatler, Hell ya senior year of high school J5 was my shyit! Concrete schoolyard is so baller.

@emnes, Well he did his whole rock’n'roll experiment and totally fucking blew dick at it, now he’s trying to collab with black keys is what I have taken in, and doing similar experiments. He’s still got his voice but nothing good to say and no creative passion.
