Rhyme N Reason 14


Blocka, Blocka...Waddup.....It's Rhyme n Reason 14 coming atcha....This week i chose a song from a dude i met thru Capitol Records who goes by the name Novel....His album should be dropping soon its called "The Audiobiography" (get it?) Dude got some good work tho...This song is called "I Am" featuring Talib Kweli and Spree Wilson...Like to hear it hear it goes...."I Am" by Novel feat Talib Kweli n Spree Wilson...

I AM I AM I AM.....This is hotness people....Im digging this song...The video is real tight too... Not much going on but it compliments the song...This song to me is about self confidence and self awareness....Being aware of who you are actually breeds confidence and confidence of self makes you dat much flyer ya dig.... I like how Talib Kweli comes in on the second verse I am C-E-O, H-N-I-C, B-K-M-C, Talib Kweli My name roll off the tongue like L-M-N-O-P...Dat was tight..But lyrically all 3 MC's did they thing...The beat is real hot it matches the mood of the song....I like the concept alot summin different..Know thyself if u want to be confident.... I Am _______ Dont be scared fill in the blank....But overall this song is Fiyaaahhhhh!!!!

I'm as, free as a spirit, I'm as fly as a bird, I'm whatever I wanna be as long as I am heard.......Much Luv n Blessings I'LL HOLLA

Rhyme n Reason 13


Rhyme n Reason 13......Wats good.....With Rhyme n Reason 13 I bring u Common's "Drivin Me Wild" from his Finding Forever album...Like to hear it? here it goes Common "Drivin Me Wild"

Whats this thing now, driving me wild, I gotta see wats up before it gets me down......Indeed....Common formely known as Common Sense put together a nice one here...Its funny he dropped the sense from his name but his songs always makes some kinda sense...This song got a nice energy to it...I like these kinda songs upbeat and entertaining with a message ya dig...Each verse is sayin summin separately n collectively....The first verse to me is basically about a girl who does everything to look fine just to get a certain kinda of dude (actor, rapper, sports figure). She works out, go to strip tease classes and all dat...She works out to look the finest just to get this type of dude and when she gets wat she looking for she realize she is only one of many...Its like a girl putting a tattoo of a guys name or vice versa so that person would love them but that person ends up not caring...Now that can bring u down....Now that can make crazy like the astronaut lady(remember her).....The second verse is about a dude who as money already and try to follow wat he sees on T.V. trying hard to be like some one else...Basically wat i get from this song is if you doin something just to please some one else stop it.....If you working out to look fine do it for urself....If u gettin bigger boops do it for urself..Dont try too hard to please others it only drives you crazy...When u feel like u tryin too hard u probally are....Overall tho this sing is tight....The beat is straight hip hop...Lily Ailen voice sounds good on the hook especially with her England accent...Common lyrics are on point and make sense not many rappers can do dat....Grade A for dis one......

Love is not a mystery, its everything........Much luv n Blessings....I'LL HOLLA

Yooooo!........Rhyme n Reason 12.......This week i'm running with one of Hip Hop's best at the moment....Lil Wayne....Weezy F. dont forget the F baby...I wonder what the F stands for????? Anyways i picked Lil Wayne's song "Prostitute Flange." Wanna hear it, hear it goes.....CHeck it out....Lil Wayne "Prostitute Flange"

Indeed.....Pretty long song right? But hey its tight dont u agree......This happens to be my favorite Lil Wayne song even tho he is not rapping...To me it is actually better than alot of the r&b songs out now....I think its written to perfection according to the point he is tryin to get across....I dont know if he is talking about a real prostitute or not but he kills it when he says Wouldn't Care If You Were a Prostitute
That You Hit Every Man That You Ever Knew
See It Wouldnt Make A Difference
If That Was Way Before Me And You Girl
See You Dont Ever Have To Worry About Me
As Long As You Keep It Real
Whatevers On Yo Mind
Speak On How You Feel
Stay Truthful to Me
And Never Lie To Me
And Dont Ever Keep No Secrets
Dont Matter Wutever Uh Uh..
Dats Lyrics people Lyrics i tell ya.....See this song is the type of song you play for some one u might've just met but u get that feeling like they might be the one...Like look baby i dont care what u did in your past but keep it real with me you aint got to worrying bout nothing...Now in a relationship isnt that what we all want...But the thing is u cant just play this song for anybody you got to get that feeling...You tell some one summin like this u better mean it....Overall this song gets an A+. The beat is infectious...Lil Wayne is riding the beat like a motor bike...Lyrics is real and the melody blends with beat like kool aid and sugar so sweet.....Indeed

You dont never have to worry about me as long as you keep it real.....Much luv n Blessings.....I'LL HOLLA!!!!!!

Rhyme n Reason 11


Wat it do????? Rhyme n Reason 11.....Indeed....This week i chose a fairly new song by The Dream...it cant be but a couple months old "Rocking That Thang." Check it out "Rocking That Thang" by The Dream.

She Rocking that thang like....I Choose this song for 2 reasons tho...First, I really like this song...The Dream is an excellent songwriter he has written some of your favorite songs like "Umbrella" by Rihanna, 'Bed" by J.Holiday, Mariah Carey's "Touch my Body." So the dude is nice with the pen....He kinda remind me of Prince as far as how he sounds vocally....This song sounds smooth...The beat blends perfectly with the melody....Not to mention it makes the ladies rock they thang on the dance floor which brings me to the next reason why i chose this song...It taught me a valuable lesson...Well a lesson i already know but was reminded of...A lil story for yall....While in the club over the weekend chillin doing my two step....Guess wat song came on...yes u guess it "Rocking That Thang." Now there was this girl right in front me rocking her thang and i must say she was rocking it quite well....Rocking it so well it enticed me to pull up on her bumper....We rocked the song away...After the song we stepped back and started talking...I do admit the girl was cute and bootiful if u kno wat i mean...Pretty face, slim in the waste and blessed from the behind but when she opened her mouth my god.....She talked my head off for the next four songs....Wat made it worse was wat she was talking about made no sense...Physically she looked good but her conversation made her so ugly....I told her imma gonna get her a drink and dissappeared in thin air...The point is fellas dont caught up in a girl cause of he way she rocking her thang....But overall this song gets 2 thumbs up...The video is flashy and goes along with the song.....She rocking that thang like....

Watch for the cutie wit a booty and smile n grin, cause it aint the outside beauty its wat lies within.....Much Luv n Blessings....I'LL HOLLA....

Rhyme n Reason 10


Waddup......Its Rhyme n Reason 10.....This week im goin with a musical legend....Another one of my favorite favorite artist...I love this lady....Billie Holiday....She so fine....But im going with her song "God Bless The Child." Like to hear it, here it goes....Billie Holiday "God Bless The Child."

Beautiful, beautiful, so beautiful....Somebody find me a time machine....This song was written in 1939 and recorded and release in 1941 and the lyrics are still relevant dammm....You know why? cause the truth will always be relevant ya dig..This song actually won a grammy back then....I mean the music is so soothing and her voice is just wooo weeee...But above all the that the lyrics...These lyrics are serious....She says Mama may have, papa may have, but GOD bless the child that got his own....Now you may have a different view but wat I get from that is GOD will always bless those who try. Those who go for theirs....Those who get their own... They always say You do your best and God will do the rest right!!!!!!! She goes on to say Yes, the strong gets more while the weak ones fade..We all already know only the strong survives...This is a very strong song far as my ears is telling me....GOD bless the child that got his own with that being said GO GET URS!....Mama may have, Papa may have but GOD bless the child who got his own, He jus worrying bout nothing cause he got his own......Indeed!

Go get your own and get your blessings....Much Luv n Blessings.....I'LL HOLLA!

Rhyme n Reason 9


Wat the Bizness is? Wats good people....Its Rhyme n Reason 9.....While I was getting my club on this past weekend this song came on and and made me think...Hmmm Wat is the good life? This week Im going with Mr. West, Kanye that is... with his song " The Good Life" Feat T-Pain. Check it out....

First off let me say this is a very good song and the video is tight too....Black and white video with color coming in and out....But seriously what is the Good Life? Im sure everybody probally got there own interpertation of what the good life is...To some one who works never having to work again is probally the good life.....To some one who is broke being rich is probally the good life...I would really like to know what people considers the good life...Talk to me.....But what I like about this song is the confidence he shows in it when he is like "I goes for mine, I gots to shine" and in the chorus " Imma get on this t.v. momma imma imma put it down." The beat is hot and lyrics is on point....This is a feel good song....I likes it....But at the end of the day whatever you consider to be the good life do what it takes to live it.. Ya dig......There is one part in the song that i consider to define the good life for me when he says "Lets go on a living spree, they say the best things in life are free." Hey no matter if you work for living or not, If your rich or living check to check when your living with love, hapiness, confidence of self, etc...Your living the good life.....

Go live The Good Life people....Much Luv n Blessings....I'll Holla
