Much Luv n Blessings people....Thanks for checkin out my Rhyme n Reason blogs.....We are now at Rhyme n Reason 4....This week im running with one of hip hop's lyrical legends GOD's Son Nas...Escobar, Nasty Nas, N.A.S. Call him what u want but the man be bringing it.....He as alot of songs i could of choose but i went with "I Can." I forget what album its on but check it out..Nas "I Can"
I Know I Can, Be what I wanna Be.....Woooo....This is an expectional written song from my point of view....First of all, you dont hear too many songs with a positive message geared towards the kids. Now dont get it twisted because of the kids on the chorus and all the kids in the video doesnt mean this song dont apply to u too. This message is for all of us no matter race, age, or where u from. You can literally be what you wanna be if you work hard at it. See alot of people just have dreams but dont want to work to make the dream come thru. I gotta a sayin "Yes dreams do become reality, but without hard work its fantasy." You could be what u want to be but u got to work hard for it. But let me show u the power of powerful music. My son is 6 yrs old now. (True Story) When my son was 3 and he was in the car with me whether we im taking him to daycare or just riding to wherever I was always play this song. Call it brainwashing or what ever but after awhile he would start to sing along. I played it so much around him he knew the words at a young age. Now he carries that I know I can attitude. I guarantee you if u say i know i can he would reply be what i want to be. Now wouldnt we all love for all to kids to sing a song like this. But overall its a well written song. The hook and the music is very catchy. I like they way he dedicated the first verse 1 n 2 to the young girls n boys. The 3rd first he just took us thru the history books that was never written. I Love this song because of the message. So remember people U can be what u wanna be as long as u work hard at it........
Much Luv n Blessings.....I'll Holla!!!!!!!!!!

Bottles,
ReplyDeleteI just jumped online and was fortunate enough to receive an e-mail that directed me to this blog. You are always gifting us with some supreme knowledge and I look forward to checking out some more of your rhyme and reason. My daughter was exposed to this song from an early age as well and it had a similar effect on her as it reportedly did for your son. She is in advanced courses and actively participates in as many intellectual and opportunistic extracurricular activitites as she can. She is self-motivated, as well. She is 11 years old now, and is currently enjoying a reward (spending the night at her cousin's house) for saving her sister's life last night. (Her sister, not exposed to this type of positive musical influence...snuck out of the house last night.) There are, of course, many factors that differ between the way these two girls were brought up, one could argue this from many standpoints. But confidence and positive influences can come from many facets of our lives. Some influences are more impressionable than others. Big up for you on a great topic, Bottles. One Luv, Leah from Arkansas.
