Acceptance of the Erotic

I Want You

From above, there you are
Falling free, the Morning Star
From on high, fallen far
To abyss, this Morning Star
From above, there you are
Falling free, the Morning Star
From on high, fallen far
To abyss

Diddy-bee-bop down the street with the energy
Putting down poetry, regardless of the penalty
Death -- My break is death
So, until then, I break shit down until there's none left 
Legerdemain making fine ledgers of mine
Legendary on the daily and not the anodyne
Anataole France when I'm inna deh dance
With one glance, I put 'em in a fighting stance
And I Heard You Say
Platitudes phrased in a certain way
So hey, if that's what you would prefer today
With no further delay...

From above, there you are
Falling free, the Morning Star
From on high, fallen far
To abyss, this Morning Star
From above, there you are
Falling free, the Morning Star
From on high, fallen far
To abyss

Who can proceed from the lead of a fellow unfit to follow
Now, furrow your brow cuz I'm so hard to swallow
Allow, time to accrue so you can borrow
Play peek a boo and pick a break out the box
Can you bear the Brer Rabbit outwitting the Fox
I'ma looking for a fix of cold facts
Fucking up the headliners down to the opening acts
And dealing on the dance floor with the freaks
I'm in my element so to speak
Mercury, certainly, you saying you're hurting me
Is perjury -- gee, what could the purpose be
Stirring up shit, stringing it along
Roping in everybody, bringing 'em along
Ready to say that I'm right
Ready to say that I'm right
Are you ready to say that I'm right 
And you're wrong?!

From above, there you are
Falling free, the Morning Star
From on high, fallen far
To abyss, this Morning Star
From above, there you are
Falling free, the Morning Star
From on high, fallen far
To abyss

Silver spoon on the scoop, but still knew violence
I'm like the gear that I wear: Troop with New Balance
...and not Nike, Boy
Me taking a loss is unlikely, boy 
Don't you ever call me brother
Give me a break, I don't bother with a five-dollar fibber
Boogie Fever as a favor 
Give my regards to Felix, you kidder
Your luck running short in the People's Court
We can take it to the stage, show 'em rap is not your sport 
24 hours of stumbling around
Without the white folks down, your ship runs aground
Lowercase or capitol L, if it's preferred
Quoth Tony Kill, you jocking me is a matter of public record
Quick-pitchin', switch into battle mode 
Got too hot for you in the Boiler Room, stick to the kitchen
If'n you're sniffin' my drift 
With your gimmick-based grift 
Yes, the rhythm the rebel
Origin of "villain," "villanus": "slave"
To the devil

From above
There you are!

From above, there you are
Falling free, the Morning Star
From above, there you are
Falling free, the Morning Star

A simple yet funky flip of a song from the beloved cartoon, Tom & Jerry. Jazz/blues reworked into a boom bap beat in MC Zappa's signature style.

Dub and bonus beats mixes were the hidden treats on many '80s hip-hop 12-inch singles – tripped out tracks where re-imagined bass, drum and tape edit arrangements took center stage, and echo-drenched rap fragments floated in and out like ghostly guests. These mixes were also showcases for a generation of transcendent engineers/editors/producers – e.g. Aldo Marin, Carlos Berrios, Omar Santana, Marley Marl & others – at an early moment when hip-hop, R&B, electro and dance music comfortably comingled. Flying solo at the controls on this episode, I explore an hour of ’80s hip-hop 12-inch bonus beats and dub mixes, from the slept-on to the classic.

Super Rare recording of the legendary 'Trip' party in New York City at Club Mars from 1989. This is what an actual old school Hip Hop jam sounded like. DJ Duke of Denmark on the turntables with the legendary Grandmaster Caz and Almighty Kay Gee of the one and only Cold Crush Brothers as Master of Ceremonies (and kicking a few freestyles). This is before all clubs went 'Bottle Service' so literally 2000 people are on their feet, dancing, and screaming. You can even hear a fight break out that the MCs shut down quick fast. Even Russell Simmons get shouted out. It was a highlight of my life to be a part of this party. RIP Beasley 79.

Original recording by Yuki Watanabi (recorded bootleg style with a mic on a tape cassette). I recovered what audio I could using iZotope RX8 (Thanks A Trak)It was a lot fo work. Enjoy.
