Ohmega Watts - Ode to Brooklyn feat. DJ Manwell

The first single from Jason "ClassicBeatz" Minnis' upcoming album "Rumors of Royalty" out on October 28th.

<i>"Rumors of Royalty is an album that links my American roots to the African diaspora.  Soul, Funk, Gospel, Miami bass, Hip Hop and R&B have had a major impact on my life.  As a native of St. Petersburg, Florida and a long time resident of Brooklyn, NY, I wanted this album to reflect these various influences. The Boom Bap is a perfect reflection of the melting pot of styles."</i>

„With a growing reputation as a turntablist and esteemed scratch-hook artist, Chinch 33 presents his LP "Yuma" via hhv.de. In creating this album, Chinch gathered a circle of carefully selected producers (Dave Sparkz, Dexter, Wun Two, Twit One, MecsTreem, AGQ, Al'Tarba, Torky Tork and others) and lyrcists (SmooVth, Hus Kingpin, Rozewood, John Robinson, Dillon, Apani B, Shabaam Sahdeeq and others) to bring you his uncompromising and unique narrative vision. "Yuma" extends scratch related Hip Hop with a more sophisticated school of thought and takes you on a progressive trip through everything Hip Hop is, should and will be.“

Happy Freestyle Friday y’all.

Here are the Lyrics


Yeah you know a nigga is the one,
I got my own version of misses applebum,
The newest human vagabond,
Undercover brother tryna get him one,
Getting away from rat races to dry plum 
I’m Bond as the word is,
I’m a king but don’t call me Curtis,
They illiterate can barely read cursive 
Go ask James for those hitman services,
They rather flourish off my culture than see me win,
That’s the worst tip,
Herses,
For anyone in the way of the kid,
Ain’t no lane merging,
Hypocrite if Easter your only visiting day for churches,
I double down and blow a gasket for these verses,
I’m steady learning,
Building my yellow brick road from these curses,
On to the horizon for what I’m deserving,
Tryna keep a straight line like why the fuck are you swerving,
Nigga I am your superior,
Thank me for my service,
 
 
 
 
(Hook x2)
 
Let me put me on,
Don’t need no handouts when I take you on,
A vagabond nigga,
Ronin like the sensei gone ,
Recognize I tranquilize competition that come,

Bonita Freestyle
