Gift of Gab was most definitely a big part of my life's soundtrack since high school. I might have seen Blackalicious in concert more often than any other group. He was one of the most brilliant emcees I've ever heard, and from all accounts was just a great human. Sending love out to his family and friends. This is just a short tribute mix with a few favorite tracks and a few samples that give me that feeling that became part of the legendary music he and Chief Xcel made together. RIP.

Headnodic flips the a cappella of "Uprising(Do it)" from Destani Wolf's new EP Peek Away, featuring the one and only Raashan Ahmad. "Most people live by their fears, they’re so afraid of what might happen – future of the unknown. Afraid to fail, or even of success. These lyrics are addressing that fear; to live in that present moment, take a risk on you because ultimately, if you don’t live to your fullest potential, you’ll never know. Fearing the future when the future is not real? Only the present is real. A reminder to myself too. I wanna see people live to their full potential. " -Destani Wolf

Uprising (Do It!):

If you want it now, it's right there waiting for you.
Go on make yourself proud, you came to do what you do.
You can live comfortably and keep things the same.
Go take a risk on you, your potential's too great yeah

I want to feel the fire
But fear is safe, keeps me from getting higher
The unknown carries all the weight but who's to say what tomorrow brings
If you want it, you got it
Cause you need it, so ride it
Life is too short, to deny it
know you deserve to live your life
Do it!

A boy is told right now "you can't no how no way"
He carries it everyday that's why he settled for that job it's safe
But when he's grey and old reviewing his life
Would he think could my dreams have taken flight? Would I have a happier life?

I want to feel the fire
But fear is safe, keeps me from getting higher
The unknown carries all the weight but who's to say what tomorrow brings
If you want it, you got it
Cause you need it, so ride it
Life is too short, to deny it
know you deserve to live your life

Forget your downward swing
This is your uprising
Let's move our energy
This is your uprising Do it!
