An absolute pleasure to hear this rendition. Perfectly combined beautiful voices. Love it 💜

Perfectly beautiful duet , super nice harmony, great collaboration , fantastic cover 👏

I know the version of Nazareth from the 70s. Your version is really good, I've never heard the song as a duet and with harmonised voices. It sounds fantastic. Congratulations on the great collab! 👏

Girl, I'm glad we're done pretending.
Although my love is never ending,
I'll admit we've broke from all the bending.
Let's take a step back and do some comprehending
of ourselves and find out all the reasons
for the constant changing of the seasons.
Heal our wounds, prevent further bleedin'.
Learn from our mistakes, stop history repeatin'.
'Cause your love gives me something to believe in
and although I don't wanna see you leavin',
it's necessary in order so that we can
be our best selves one another is seein'.
And maybe then, if our stars realign,
we could rebuild from scratch and just take all the time
in the world to establish true love that's divine
and be wealthy and healthy as ourselves. Redefine.

Lately, been feeling isolated.
Outside, was masking like I've made it.
Inside, was hurting and deflated,
hating myself for the mess that I've created.
To be fair, it's much more complicated.
Fuckedupness cannot be overstated.
Got laid off, became dark and jaded,
anxious, depressed, angry and frustrated.
All contributing to my mentality;
bipolar, borderline personality.
Which often tends to distort my reality,
veiling myself from what is actuality.
But this time I need to be stable.
Prove to everyone that I'm able
so I can take a seat back at my table
and generate a happy ending to this fable.

Redefine.

A song about the person who inspires you to be created and you admire in everyway and that’s why She Is My Muse. 
This track as blended indie electro pop with old school rap. The Conscience of Kings project allows us to experiment with so many different concepts and have great fun doing it. 
This is a completely three way collaboration with Noobly taking care of the instrumental and production/producing, me vocals/ lyrics and Sdot rapping to his own lyrics also. 
The featured rapper Sdot is a young midlands talent that as been praised by many established rap artists for his live performances and YouTube music videos.
If this is your thing then you can watch his music videos on YouTube and catch him on all major streaming services simply type in Sdot. Really worth a listen and watch. 
It’s a totally different territory to any other collaboration we have done before. 
I hope you enjoy it as much as we did creating it .

The HEART of the matter: deep down in the forest, the darkness below the tree canopy envelops a myriad of life forms - developed from and supported by the carbon captured from the atmosphere by the leaves up above.... 

After the last ice age (approx 10,000 years ago) over 50% of the Earth's land was covered by forest. This is now 26% and slowly decreasing.

Love Hurts- Duet with Tone Hjelt (TJs Playground)

Lyrics:
Heat’s bubbling everywhere——coming to the surface —-
Straight from the underground ——so don’t go ——getting nervous
———don’t go getting nervous——
Nothing but dopeness —————-
both a product and the service——-

———checking ———in——- where you been
—————get in ——where you fit in
Standing room only—close the doors and let us  begin
And If All the seats are taken———-consider that a win—-win

Nah!—Y’all ——can’t hold back the vibes—-

—————Now Bounce It!

Braking down—— the of elements
Tune me —-as a reference
Acknowledge —-the —existence 
So what’s the big difference
—————-Tried and true—eloquence
—————-brand new—-it’s evident
 I’m Betting that’s your——preference
Really don’t stand a chance

—where’s the —competition at —-What’s their -name—
——Tell me ———who?
Only two I’m—-worried bout —-is IPG1—- and there’s Lou
That’s ——me myself and I ——-cause I really ——-ain’t scared of you
No overselling bro————yo!—this is what I was born to do

——My styles never——basic—I bend the bar and twist it
tryin match —-my cadres —-well that’s ——your first mistake
Check out——How I operate—chill——- lemme demonstrate 

Decision’s made—-coordinate
Drop that beat——anticipate
I rock it  ——-and—— I—-regulate
Now it’s time ———to——-devastate——
off the top ————-decapitate
opposition ———seal their fate 
While—————-my flow accelerate
Catch the wave— I dominate—-
hope your will ——is up to date 
eliminate ——and terminate
I just had to ———set things straight 
Game over——checkmate 

Part of me——- part of you—
————-ignition———————Now Bounce It!

Dropping heat’s no issue
It’s IPG1 —-and it’s LOU———this is just what I do

Deep for me ———and for you—-
Nothing late and —-nothing’s new—-
nothing even overdue
Boost the volume——-Lemme ——through—-
Lemme change your point of view
nothings basic——like the flu 
Nothing’s crazy—-like voodoo 
simple facts—-a quick—-review
Catch the vibe ——it’s simply Lou
No holding back just bouncing through (X2)
