Bassnectar is back with a 17-track album, "The Golden Rule", packed to the max with a diverse array of freestyle electronic music. We'll be releasing the collection in 3 parts this summer, kicking it off July 14th with part one:

"Prayer Song" - a collaboration with Rebelwise, and the 1st of many projects with Ancient Tongue which centers on the preservation of indigenous language through hip hop culture. We teamed up with Merle Whistler, a Lakota ceremonial Leader, his granddaughters Una & Wicahapi, and their uncle Jake Sounding Sides to celebrate the Lakota language and culture.

Lyrics:
Every song (repeat)
I wish that I could be you sometimes, learn every song in your memory

I wish that you could be me sometimes, to know my song 

Heroes, poets, living ghosts and future kings.
Heavy songs from skinny streets with greedy dreams
Where lovers rush to flee and peace is paper thin 
Where body language speaks and bullets have arguments.

No cockpit to be one with.
There's no dials, fuels or buttons.
I am partially wind, so flight’s a main function of this 
DNA skin suit, technologically fitted apparatus, 
time machine with genetic links to stars in it 

A car for my conscience;
In this world, a tourist 
through the backstreets of cause and effect I’m moving forward 
in a foreign, fully imported, tricked out explorer 
insured, avoiding accidents,
Relax your back to this.

you only live forever
Twice.
That's just the half of it.
This is all a hologram,
It's something you should grapple with 
more than just a poem or a clever line you better know:
Life is but a mental game, the thoughts are the remote control.

Learn every song 

I wish that I could be you sometimes 
learn every song in your memory.

I wish that I could be you sometimes learn every song.

I wish that you could be me sometimes
to know my songs and my memories.

I wish that you could be me sometimes
to know my songs 

my song, 
learn every song in your memory

I wish that I could be you sometimes, learn every song in your memory

I wish that you could be me sometimes, to know my song 

(repeat)

Lyrics:
cartoon lightbulb above my head
movie starts soon, your move, pick a character
spray paint red, another soundboy dead
if nobody dance spirit can’t break the barriers
heavy be the crown, everybody wanna carry it
have you met Assata yet?
she askin “where the power at?”
polish her kinetic, universal in acknowledgement
chemistry is light, so you know i somebody that

move back through that
smack it with a one-two-step-classic
boom bap, Acid Blackness
Ash on tha track
with a trick that’s magic

i’m from the Old School
got the house
rootwork and hoodoo
the rhyme keep me busy
you can keep the grind
i’m the bean and the coffee
designed from the shrine, no other, no copy
always got a buzz, really hard to off me
they be trollin’ deep but their energy is sloppy
kazers in my jeep, crop circle audi
zoomin through the metro, boomin through ya body

move back through that
smack it with a one-two-step-classic
boom bap, Acid Blackness
Ash on tha track
with a trick that’s magic

you still alive?
how do you survive the throat chokes?
i raise vibe with biden, fauci, and trump jokes
too polarized?
both sides = no hope
high energetics cuz i’m down with the po’ folk
do it for the streets and mumia - still locked up!
no matter if the drops or the stocks or the props up
fuckit if im popular, god with the doppler
vision with incision, im Panther, im Shaka

move back through that
smack it with a one-two-step-classic
boom bap, Acid Blackness
Ash on tha track
that’s magic

Lyrics: 
I called.
I called again
I called.
I called again


You never saw me
I always 
was standing there
waiting for the strength.
The strength to walk away
The strength to turn away…

I called.
I called again


You never saw me
I always 
was standing there
waiting for the strength.
The strength to walk away
The strength to turn away…

Lyrics:
Different
(repeat)

I be on That Different, 
different, different, different
(repeat)

I be on That Different
different rhythm hittin in my system
different when I listen, 
different style with no restrictions.
High up on That Different, 
different flex in The Transition, 
different set, flippin positions 
got me seein double vision.

I be on that different rhythm
hittin different in my system
I be on that different rhythm
got me seeing double vision

I be on That Different, 
different flex in The Transition, 
I be on That Different
different flex in The Transition, 
transition, transition, transition, transition.

this aint a homonym 
the same We not as Them.
They in opposite of this lane I’m drivin in

this aint a homonym 
the same We not as Them.
They in opposite of this lane I’m drivin in

this aint a homonym 
the same We not as Them.
They in opposite of this lane I’m drivin in

Not the same
Not the same
Not the same
We Not As Them.
