Stolen Youth

Stolen Youth (Radio Edit)

Order on iTunes

BMI songwriting Workshop WEEK 1 Assignment:
Written about a man who was/is one of my best friends from my time growing up in Queens.  He moved away after his father passed, but we've always picked up where we left off when we get together.  

"Moving On"

(Verse 1)
A rubber ball made you part of the group
Brothers forged on a summer stoop
The skinny kid that always told the truth
Is holding on to me, holding on to me

Watching women flock was a sight to see
And I could wingman if there were more than three
The heartbreaker with his own on his sleeve
Is holding on to me, Holding on to me

(Chorus)
Holding on to me now 
Is the troubled world you found
Instead of weighing you down
You took your blows and rose somehow
No grabbing at the past
There was nothing you were missing
No talking 'bout life
You went and did the living
Oh all in all, I guess that's called movin' on
You kept it movin' on (Just Keep it movin' on)

(Verse 2)
An unfathered boy with it all to prove
Went off to sea with his navy blues
The man that came back who proudly fills his suit
Is holding on to me, holding on to me

Your knowing eyes that have seen wild
Will bare witness to a crazy child
You'll be a teacher with that loving style
And take a hold of me, keep holding on to me

(Chorus)

(Bridge)
We follow the roads
That ring of yesterday
And face what we've chosen
to find a safe place to stay
And hope for grace 
And Real Love
And a game that lets us play
Move on!

(Chorus)

PILLS AND POTION FEAT JOELL ORTIZ

Kieren Dickins aka DELS comes blasting back out of the blocks with the massive 'Capsize'. After the critical acclaim which has met the release of his debut album, 'GOB', DELS has teamed up with two of his biggest name collaborators for the huge tune, 'Capsize'. 

Joe Goddard (Hot Chip) has hooked up a beat of such electronic magnitude it sounds like Godzilla marching on Westminster. Over it he drops a chorus of deadpan eloquence which acts as the jump off point for DELS and his labelmate Roots Manuva to rip through verses of such venomous intelligence that if anyone ever again says to you that "rappers haven’t got anything to say" you can just grab this CD and slap them round the chops with it. We promise to stand outside court with placards at your trial for common assault. A genuine monster of a tune, as packed with a celebratory spirit of solidarity as it is with anger and defiance, this is a truly important and memorable single from a truly important and memorable album.

When I Was Your Man - Bruno Mars Feat. Meylin (Duet)

I've written and arranged this into a song because it has always resonated with me, and I think it will resonate with a lot of people these days. (Video here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i0wd7_xhVso)

For those of you non-spanish speakers it talks about, in short, our ever changing neighborhoods, people and world. The hardships of life and saying prayers for those with less than ourselves. 

"Familia, crianza, la luz en la distancia... bien es mas cercana. Mi vista, mi casa, mis suenos, mi alma" translation, "Family, growth, the light at the end of the tunnel... good is always in the distance. My vision, my home, my dreams, my soul." Further, for us to look around what is now and put your love into the love already present around you. 

Once we find and see that love around us, it ends with "No hay nada mas, en el final, no hay nada mas", "This is it, in the end, there is nothing more". Amen.

No Hay Nada Mas - Mos Def/Yasiin Bey (Meylin Remix/Latin Version)
