Today, as it seems
bestfriend shittogo
I am blessed to have a Rockin’ friendship base with some of the most talented, righteous… like GODS. Of them all (and there are few), my BEST friend is Halo. We connect on the exact level I strived to reach BEFORE I met him. I mostly say what he feels, and he mostly PLAYS what I feel. We have a bond, and anyone fi test shall face DOOM.
May this pic serve as the innocence of our friendship.
Now.
I have an another friend. Pretty new. I reached out to HIM, just to show support on his music. He is a true lyricist from Staten Island (I’m sorry about BK Girls, Shaolin!; let me make it up to you through working with my dude), and his work reminds me of early Em. At least the single I reached out to him about.
Chris Rivera got us back in touch while I was locked up. We’ve been in constant communication (albeit times we go into Scorpio mode), and I can honestly say he’s one of my best friends. I don’t want to make a list of friends. Sciryl knows I love him, Kesed is laid back about our bond, Nate is chillin, Sha and I are rebuilding.
But I am CONSTANTLY inspired by Halo and LOU FROM PARADISE (Lou the Human, Big Lou, Scotty Demon).
I just speak to Lou everyday.
And I love it. We were signed to Interscope at different periods of our lives, so we BOTH know the game. He was, as it turns out, a StarChaser. I don’t throw it in his face… like… these last few years kinda made it hard to accept friendship (and romance). I really couldn’t trust niggas at 649. Same with 321. Both are halfway houses btw. Don’t get me wrong. I made a GOOD friend with Joel (Mendoza). We bonded over Satan, Rock & Roll and weed. He just well into a drug abyss and can’t be reached.
Shit breaks my heart.
I don’t have to worry about Lou getting lost on drugs. He got HELLA swag. And I don’t have the capacity to be egotistical with him. He comes up with GREAT ideas and concepts. So many that I have to filter what I use, and what would be good for others/him.
Lou, Halo, you ain’t gotta worry about me being wack. I’m here. For you, for me, for us. I would LOVE to you two to link. I’d love for Lou to meet my people. Shit, Rivera, Andrew, Chimp1, Dalvyn, Enjetic, R. O. (formerly Hiero)… The Hamilton Quazar is LOADED with love. You guys are priority here.
We’re the 3 best friends that HAMILTON could have…!

Lines in the sand
Last night, I met a long time StarChaser and devout MC. Alfred Banks. GREAT guy, man. I first got FORMALLY introduced to him through Mickey Factz, who introduced him as a long time -Chaser who just needed a bit of guidance. We hit it off QUICKLY on the phone, and continued our bond to FaceBook, where we first met (I knew him as Lyriqss da Lyricist; not sure if I spelled it right). I remember posting him on one of my blogs. He definitely caught my attention, and I was (and am) on the sidelines rooting for him.
Many StarChasers know the following: there are low-vibrational people out there who pose as a StarChaser to get the conversation going, but it ends up being more about them and what THEY like, versus building an actual bond. I may take my time, but I always go back and listen to StarChaser-and-StarChaser related music. It’s always a matter of time and mental space. The way StarChasers influence me is, what in my content can they not relate to?. Over the years, I have been asked to not talk about incest and to be less homophobic. As real as both planes of thought are (to me and BOTH sides of my family), I understand that it is painful to hear being talked about AT ALL, nonetheless in the contexts I use.
I do have to check my temper when it comes to the f*g word, and Tomorrow is here (hi, Meg), so I’m on eggshells until we meet on the surface. I don’t want my hate to blow up in her face. Also, I’m not a hater of homosexuality. I hate how men aren’t accountable for their actions, and women end up permanently scarred because of it. I have some takes that’ll get me cancelled, and no man is ready to fess up, so I’ll chill here.
Just know that I view Alfred Banks as my son (with love), and I’ll stop at nothing to see that he is cool, calm and collected about being an elite level rapper.
I may have said too much.
Love you, Banksy!
Keep on dooinit!!!
That’s a U2 album cover, by the way.
You kinda can’t pause white people. They dead do it.

Seeing Lyte in a Browns jersey was definitely not something I banked on. But it's a heartwarmer. I kinda been under a rock with #whatsgoingon, but I am aware that Lyte is to be inducted in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. Words cannot express how proud of her I am. If anyone earned their spot in #theHall, it's definitely MC Lyte.
Sad, because she often goes underrated in the Female MC/MC GOAT conversation.
SHE put The Neptunes on ("I Can't Make A Mistake", 1998).
aight.. trigger warning. I don't want to spark whatever ain't lit.
Just know I'm watching, "niggas and bitches!" (Pharrell Williams. "When The Last Time")
I love you, Lyte.
When the time is right, we'll link again.
We just have #proverbial time zones between us.
I'm on your side.

Art In A Day's Worth 0fficial lyrics
Let a nigga hold on for a few. Every single song that I do has the strongest view... from the top of the world. Looking down on niggas, who be looking down on niggas. It's a song, niggas! And it's on, niggas! What's wrong, niggas? You can't get along with a nigga pulling on triggers and blasting them at mind of cats who have the mind to rap past my mind? That'll never happen, so I laugh at the pastime these other cats have, with Kat Stacks. Running in the crib of Young Money. Taking all the money in the crib. What's funny? Hilariously, I don't have beef with them niggas at all. I'm trying to smash Nicki, do a track with Jizzy... Drizzy. Pardon me, but a nigga's too soft.
*NEW FAVORITE CH SONG ALERT!* Scorpion's Uppercut 0fficial lyrics
Look, let me tell y' all mufuckas something, man.
I had it fuckin rough.
Let me just vent, man.
(verse 1)
My quality of work bodies me, every time I try to get a volley with a chick in a skirt. (I'm) trying to put my dick in her hearse. Drive off. No life lost, no life to be given. Because, I didn't like wearing ribbons in the sky. And her pussy wasn't the sky. That shit was smitten with being the dirt. We have dirt. Me and life. She's that skirt. She got work to do with my voodoo, 'cause I move through and through so cool. No Live. No cigarettes. But I play Live with my bad bitches. Yes. And my bad bitches like my niggas, and they after my nads getting dressed. Put a rubber on. Love the fucking song. I do it till I'm fucking gone.
(verse 2)
I throw a brick at your crib. Have you standing on your porch like, "look what you did!". I ain't showing no remorse, I'm just showing niggas force. I showed you how I lost. Came back. Showed you how I floss as a boss. Now. What did it cost? I'm not playing Dos. Microsoft. ...but I go off. I like those talking chats coming from niggas, but I'm dumbing up and numbing up and running out of niggas to bite. So give me the mic. I come up with some that I invent on site. And if you don't like it, you can kiss my pipe. The shit been inside of your chick every night. But your chick is beside the nigga crib. My crib is in the sky, and that bitch get high. So dig this. You ain't even got to like it. But you know what vibe is, and that's what I give.
(hook)
I get down, y' all!
Every time I got a problem, I just let it go.
I get down, y' all!
Every time I got an issue, I just let you know
I get down, y' all!
Every time I got something bothering me,
You feel it!
You feel it
so much, you steal it.
(verse 3)
My family is late on the bandwagon. Now all my fans are asking if my family reaction to my shit is what keeps me moving. Nah, nigga. Just music. At the same time, I do get crap from them niggas who be soothing crap in the past by the way that they be moving by having gats that blast. Them niggas is like, "why don't you just get you a wife?" And I'm like, "my nigga I'm trife. I' ma cheat, and she probably gonna find a guy to beat. And I am not the guy to beat, damn it. I am me, staying in my L A N E. In LA right now, but any chick could get it and any nigga could get the fist".

I get down, y' all!
Every time I got a problem, I just let it go.
I get down, y' all!
Every time I got an issue, I just let you know
I get down, y' all!
Every time I got something bothering me,
You feel it!
You feel it
so much, you steal it.

Here, is your winner.
And still.
My breathing is somewhat back under control. I did some hardcore exercises today, both vocally and physically. I’m not worried about the physical side. I know how to hold it down for crowds. And I never was the most active performer onstage. But vocally, I expanded to where I can do a few higher scales with my notes than I was able to AS RECENT AS YESTERDAY!
God is good, and “The Devil is dead ass a liar!”.
I listened to a lot of jazz (today), a lot of breaks, a lot of sample packs. Currently listening to my man Ludacris. Booty talk in Atlanta is literally an expression. You can hear a lot of self-deprecation in it, as well as a lot of slick talk and gangsta-isms. I used to joke that I need grills for all the shit I talk. I abandoned the notion, because it’s an #iykyk concept, and that only reminds me of the ATLDL thing that brought about laughter from me and sadness for AIDS-infected black women.
Likely, I won’t be battling anyone anytime soon. I believe my MCing is, though superior, not enough to impress a crowd IMMEDIATELY. It’ll take time to understand my bars, and no one has time for E=mc bars. Now, 96% of you battle rap nights can suck this dick, and that’s just how I feel. I don’t think your bars are potent, or as potent as the bars of the 4%. I’m not entertained, you’re corny, and I stopped watching full battles because of this. But again, I’m not getting in the ring. Put me in your bars, I’ll put you in my songs.
How beautiful is that, huh??
DJ Enjetic expands!
My good friend Danny "Enjetic" Rivera has just launched a website for his new DJ Coalition. It's a MASSIVE collective of DJs WORLDWIDE, dedicated to finding the newest, freshest, hottest underground music of all genres. You may have seen me interview with him and his lovely cohost Althea (Danny + Althea = D&A). Well, as Althea branches into making jewelry, Danny is now DJing and basically made a team of like-minded DJs across the globe.
Upon browsing the site, you'll see that you can submit music to be spun by your local D&A Coalition DJ(s). Because my newer music is based in LA, Danny (lovingly) lists me as a West Coast artist. I tried to argue, but I never really belonged in New York OR Cleveland.
Anyway, if you want your music heard and SPUN, sign up to submit your tracks. If it picks up, you will be notified immediately.
Shouts to Enjetic... *DJ* Enjetic!... for making it happen without being forced to.
