When you living inna fame

So you’ve got to live up to your name
Or else I’ll put you to shame… Listen!
If you say you a selector
You a fe have good selection
A-and I say if you say you a de special
Man I say I want to know your potential
You a say you a madness
You a say you a de best
But when I put you ‘pon you feet
A-some a-some a say you can’t play de beat
And I hear you say a Clash a you ruler
Say a Clash sound cooler, eh!
Say a Clash sound sweeter
And now-a-days man a measure mile in a metre, eh!
Live up to your name
Or else you die in shame
A-and a so me say fe live up to your name
A so me tell you say you die in shame
Some a dem a bodysnatcher
Some a dem a barracuda, eh!
But who a know fe me Jah Jah
Fe me Jah a me creator, eh!
Flying saucers, rock-and-roll

It’s all in the whirlwind
I say you’ve gone with the blockhead
A-and I say me say dat some a dem a Sex Pistol
Nipple erectors
A so me tell you set dem sp…(?) man a gone

And I’ll tell you ’bout the X-generation…
Me know dem a victimed
‘Cause dem no know fe me sweet Jah Jah, eh!

A-and I tell you say a Clash sound sweeter
And now-a-days man measure mile in a metre
A none a dem deh measure gallon in a litre
And I tell you say me know dem a cheat ya
‘Cause when you living inna fame
You got to live up to your name
Or else a suffer and you die inna shame
And I tell you say it’s all in the game, eh!
Some a say dem a selector

Or else deh moving in the wrong direction
And deh no know dis a reggae vibration
A-and a so me say a Clash a you ruler
And dis ya one a say it a musically cooler, eh!

Or else you suffer and you die inna shame
‘Cause when you living inna fame
A so me tell you say it’s all in the game
And so me talkin’ about

Big body snatcher, (?), eh!
Flying saucers, rock-and-roll
See you gone in the whirlwind
A-and I tell you say, a you a de blockhead
And some will tell you dat you dreader than dread
And a-some a say a Clash a you ruler

You got to live up to your name
Or else you suffer and you die inna shame
It’s all in the game, eh!
This is the game of life
We no wa’ no strife
Game of life
We no wa’ no strife, no no
Don’t, no no no no
F*ckin’ hell Mickey

Sick. Discuss the destruction.

The sickest lyrics in the history of hiphop:

And for all you MC’s, you heard my story
On my super-fly, cold-crushin’ fame and glory,
How I rocked the children and the young ladies.
I even rocked the country that was overseas
‘Cause I can rock anybody from any crew.
Because I did it to Chaka, I’m-a do it to you.
I’m-a show you how I rocked it, y’all, all night long,
But when I rocked with Chaka Khan, I just said,
“Chaka Khan, let me rock you, let me rock you, Chaka Khan.”, I said,
“Let me rock you, that’s all I wanna do.
Chaka Khan, let me rock you, let me rock you, Chaka Khan.”, I said.
“Let me me rock you ’cause I feel for you.
Chaka Khan, won’t you tell me what you wanna do?
Do you feel for me the way I feel for you.
Chaka Khan, let me tell you what I wanna do.
I wanna love you, wanna hug you, wanna squeeze you too,
So let me take me in your arms, let me fill you with my charms, Chaka
‘Cause you know that I’m the one to keep you warm, Chaka.
I’ll make you more than just a physical spell.
I wanna rock you, Chaka baby, ’cause my name is Mellie Mel.”

Expressly Downhill

Nothing like kicking in a crazy weekend with a silky smooth tune….

Peter Benisch

I’ve been away with Tristan coming to visit from California. I absolutely dig the crap out of this tune I’ve been rocking for a few months and still can’t get away from. Peter Benisch is a classically trained composer that found a new avenue for his recordings – electronic beats. Though this was released nine years ago, it sounds as modern as other downbeat ambient songs today. Check out his album Soundtrack Saga!

I am one of these

This reminds me a little bit of Cut Copy (by the way where is their new album!?) and a little bit of Fred Falke. Not that that is a distasteful combination; holy crap is what you should be thinking.

War Of The Worlds, Part Deuce

Seems I can’t kick the HG Wells bit this week. It could be Warehouse 13 and their feature of HG Wells are frigging weekend. For those of you TLDRs out there, listen from five minutes in. If you aren’t dancing your friggin ass off, I can’t say anything.

War of the Dubstep

This is an absolutely sickening dubstep compilation with the entire War Of The Worlds audio LP. Does anything else need to be said?

Sunrise

I decided to start my blog completely over. Turn over a new leaf due to some pretty great life experiences. Also I’ve had some pretty great tunes swapping from a lovely little blog this way. This is a pretty wonderful tune! I LOVE this.
