Always More (Single) Pre-Releases

This is an underground Hip-hop type track with an oldschool sound.  The lyrics are more grass roots and without much spiritual references.  The take is on the days of our youth and past lives in the hood.

Move Further

This is an old school underground flow with a grass root vibe.
It's about being okay while solo in life. The lyrical context stays true with the title, so enough said.

So Long Solo

This is a song about how a man can be affected by woman and to be harmed to cause his own detriment.  The main gesture is encouragement of strength, so that one can refrain from such acts as the embedded hook claims. The lyrics do not degrade women and explain how men abuse their attributes and worth.

Scriptural content: Drawn from king Solomon (firstborn of David), the book of Proverbs pertaining to "Can a man take fire in his bosom, and his clothes not be burned?" (6:27), the great harlot of harlots in revelation, and spiritual/carnal struggle in relation to every man.  The song does not refer to any particular woman type.

Lust & Envy

While Christians feel the need to start preaching, this form of encouragement is to be slow to speak, and work out yourself.  Like the mote you see in someones eye, there may be one in yours. ***REMASTERED***

Eclipse

This hip-hop song that I've been sitting on. It is based on how much someone can get. This is not that churchy-type, but about "casual knowledge."
We are aware of the phrase "money is the root of all evil," but did you know, Paul also said that those that are rich could be drowned in lust. His other prediction is that knowledge would increase, moving to the last days.

This is an underground hip-hop style and spiritual rap form. It is a conscious rap style emphasizing faith in Jesus Christ. The sound can somewhat be taken as spoken word rap. The rap sticks to an east-coast-grass-roots Hip-hop form, rather than trying to echo -modern rap. It focuses on meaningful and deep sayings but can be misconstrued as indie rap. However, much of the lyrical compression is inspired by Wu-tang. The content contains advocacy, for people mislabeled by religion as backsliders. There is some calling out of hypocrisy in the congregation.  The lyrics stick to biblical truth. It's a movement of rap flow to encourage confidence in God and yourself. Also, it seeks to be welcoming of all men regardless of gender and sexual orientation, by sticking to the main focus of scripture. Lastly, the Hip-hop is intended to sound modern, but refrain from being traditionally cheesy Christian rap or superficially shallow in content.
