I been thinking...

I just haven't been taking the time to blog. I've been writing raps more, anyways. So... Yeah. Like I always say, my lyrics are just verbal blog posts that rhyme.

I'm gonna keep this relatively short...

But, speaking of rap... I'm obviously a very good rapper. And nothing that anyone's heard before. And I thank everyone who shares my sentiments... If I don't get a deal, or some kind of recognition for my rhymes, then I'll personally feel as if I'm comparable to "that one kid better than Jordan who didn't get that break" (Jadakiss - 'Why'). I have the talent/skill to make something of myself in this rap game. I don't wanna toot my own horn, because I've been humbled lately...

That's it. All I can do is keep doing what I'm doing.

Inspiration.

I watch these two videos almost every day... The latter of the two, I've been watching since I was in 9th grade (2006-07).

It's odd, since I don't play an instrument or sing... Oh, well. Very inspiring videos to me.

Pharrell creating "Midnight Hour" for Natasha Ramos.

Ryan Leslie creating "Promise Not to Call."

Pumpa!

It starts now.

I've just been looking at this dream, thinking about it... For 4 years now.
The time for spectating is over. I refuse to just be on the outside looking.
The time to chase and take what I want is just around the corner.
The first step begins SOON.

I'm motivated like never before.

Self-Help.
The Minute Mixtape.
The Composite.
Abstract Thoughts.
The Levi Chronicles.*

It's imminent.

*working title.

New favorite artist (AGAIN)!

Okay... Anyone who knows anything about me and music know that this is how I work: I'll select an artist, and almost ONLY listen to said artist for a period that ranges from 1 week to 3 months.

Here are some of those artists in the past (in order):

Mos Def
Pharrell*
Lupe Fiasco
Charles Hamilton*
XV
J. Cole
Blu
Q-Tip
Fashawn
Ryan Leslie*
Kendrick Lamar

*these artists are immortalized in my mind for various reasons

AND NOW:DANNY BROWN.

Not really gonna speak too much else on him (look him up). I watched this video and was amazed at the lyrics and, surprisingly, his delivery.

That is all for now.

Oh, and by the way, prepare for the ABSTRACT THOUGHTS world takeover.

Futurespect.

A song I did from mid-October.
The title is a word I [think I] made up that is a combination of "Futuristic" and "Retrospect."
Shouts to Philippe Edison on the instrumental.

Tryna figure out what the past meant.

I took a chance on romance... I loved you.
And now that it burns, I still yearn to touch you.
And the question is:
Who can love you like I love you, baby?
