Trobiz - "On Point" - Song of the Day [4/21/15]


Tremayne Howe aka Trobiz represents the intelligent side of hip-hop lyricists quite well. This is "On Point" a smooth beat underneath some of the illest flows spliced in with descriptive similes. The mic is passed around like a Lyricist Lounge song with a bunch of different voices all coming together to throw down. This is the type of music that would accompany many a back-road drive and smoke session in my youth. There are very few songs that can make me day dream about the good old days in my life like this. I always have good memories pop up when getting down to Trobiz.

Ludacris - "Blueberry Yum Yum" - Song of the Day - (3-1-15)


Ludacris goes off about his love for the nugs on this track "Blueberry Yum Yum." He is known for being a funny guy, and often his lyrics are clever and humorous. Ludacris is an intelligent rapper which is unique for the genre. His similes are well thought out, and he is able to describe scenarios with a comedic style that keeps a smile on your face. Smoke um if you got um, and especially if you got some Blueberry Yum Yum; get blazed with Ludacris.

Rage Against The Machine - "Bombtrack" LIVE - Song of the Day [12-30-14]



This is the opening song "Bombtrack" to the debut and self titled album Rage Against The Machine performed live. It's one of the best albums ever created on a number of levels. Zack de la Rocha is a brilliant political figure as well as being a masterful lead singer for the group. His words are powerful and intelligent, a lot can be learned listening closely to Rage Against The Machine lyrics. Their music is just perfect, and the band is so skilled they can nearly identically recreate the same sound as on the studio recordings when playing live. I was able to see them live in the late nineties and they sounded impeccable. Each band member is on an elite level and together they made a strong statement. The band was made up of Tim Commerford on bass guitar, Tom Morello on guitar, and drummer Brad Wilk. "Bombtrack" sets the tone for an incredible session of meticulous precision in rock music.
