Slim Pickens - Rebel Music

Verse 1: 
Advanced flows for the tried and the true
I hit the lab with the mic device and my DJ with the ones and the twos
This is hip-hop, the way it's meant to be
The kicks deliver hard knocks and the snare drums slap your snotbox
I pen scriptures, vivid like block shots
My cadence got 'em spinning like shell tops on hot blocks
Soul in the sample, pain in the groove
Every line’s a time capsule, I channel the mood
No gimmicks, just rhythm and truth
I spit wisdom for the youth and the OGs in the booth
From the basement to stages, I lace it with patience
My bars hit harder than parole violations
Vinyl crackle, the backdrop to my sermon
I rhyme like the world’s still burning, still learning
Still yearning for that real in the mix
So I craft every verse like a blade that splits bricks

Hook:
Advanced Flows for the tried and the true
To be an EMCEE, you have to be rooted in this underground sound

A Red Christmas

Who Would Imagine a King

Gimme Hope, Jo-Anna

The metadata tells me that this was completed on December 3rd, 2009. It was produced by my homie Rev Raven, and is really about Maseru and the instability that followed the country's invasion in 1998. 

The second verse is about the social conditions that keep the poor under oppression, and I make an attempt to link our local struggle to what is happening globally -- in Brazillian favelas, in Kenya's Kibera slums. 

All oppression is connected.
