Myka 9 feat. Aceyalone, Casual, Sunspot Jonz & Kirby Dominant – Oh Yeah Alright

Something fresh from M9 Ent for the Autumnal Equinox!  Rhyming over a beat constructed by BSmash, Myka does his Jazz style like know one else can do!  The beat takes samples from John Coltrane's atlantic recording "Equinox".  

Myka 9 - The Equinox

S.F.V. to LA- Imperfexion feat. Myka 9 and Trace

(Kaigen)

敵地のアンチも味方のベンチも総立ち/
腕比べの行方は紙一重 奇跡よ 集え/
劇的な幕切れの仕入先/

[Kaigen - Translation]
All stand, from the haters in enemy land to the bench of my fam
A thin line divides the outcome of battle. Gather here miracles
The supplier of a dramatic curtain fall

(Myka 9)


(Kaigen)
記録を残そうが、記憶に残ろうが/
決めれば一躍頼みの綱、 外せば一夜で刺身のつま/
つまりのるかそるか、万事休すか九死に一生を得るか/
手に汗握る窮地の心地よさに酔いしれる/
筋金入りの勝負師の見せ場が押寄せる/
固唾を飲む土俵際で巻きこす/
歓喜と失意の渦はカオスの図/
向かい風が強くなれば、自ずと預かる仲間の信頼/
脳裏に取り付く懲りずに重ねたみじめで無様な失敗/
の後味は問われる真価に難なく応えるために/
積み立てた備えと思えば憂えなし/
デッドライン直前 疑心と自信のトレードが合意に達し/
新規の伝説をお膳立て 流れを変える弾数 /
残りは果たして何発？ のしかかる重圧/
は率先して担いでごらん 天王山で充実/
した景観を満喫するには、それに見合うだけの負荷が不可欠/

[Kaigen - Translation]
Either you hit a new record or remain in memory
If it works, spring into becoming the last hope
If not, turn into garnish for sashimi in one night
Sink or swim, it’s “the end” or an “escape from death”
A hardcore gambler ecstatic in the pleasant sweaty palm tight squeeze
Here comes the flood of highlights
Paint a picture of chaos, a vortex of rapture and despair
Among the breathless at the edge of the ring
When the headwind’s strong look after the trust of friends
Miserable awkward mistakes repeated and layered in the back of mind
Nothing to worry about, think of the aftertaste as savings
A preparation for the right answer to the question of true value
Right before deadline, set the stage for a new legend
Through the trading agreement of doubt and confidence
Bullets to change momentum, how many shots left in the chamber?
The pressure is on, so take the initiative to carry the ball
The weight you carry must correspond
In order to fully enjoy the view from the top of mount make-or-break

約束された将来/
においても挫折は執拗に出場機会/
に恵まれる。　逃した魚の大きさを計量し、踏ん張りどころ/
で感傷にひたるよりかは、どん底で捕れた泥んこ/
の成果を認め、磨けば光る穴埋めの育成に精を/
出していくほうがより正解。　苦節何年かかっても/
度々後ろ指を差され、情熱が少々荒んでも/
あの日の衝動でくるんだ信念が芯まで腐るもんか/
花道を飾る役目をおめおめと諦めに譲るなんざ/
まっぴらごめん。　末路すら貫通する渇望が活路に/
抜擢され、忘れ物をした古巣へ電撃復帰/
色違いの夢が返り咲き、過去の脚本を捨てた働き /
が続きを演出するが、取り戻す結末は原作に忠実に/
来世まで語り継がれる名場面のライセンスを独占/
和洋折衷の番狂わせの詰め合わせ。 Myka9, Kaigen /
の二枚看板。 西海岸からジパングへ通すアリウープパス/
この曲の終了のブザーと同時に灯すヒップホップの明日/

Even for a promised future
Defeat is persistent with its chances to play
Rather than measuring the size of the fish that escaped
And becoming sentimental in a time for final effort
The correct answer is to acknowledge the muddy fruits
Picked at the bottom of the pit
And hustle to make up the deficit which shines if polished
No matter how many criticisms and years of hardship it takes
And the passion goes rough, conviction wrapped with that one day’s
Impulse will never rot to the core
No way will I give way to giving up when my role is
To walk down the runway. Thirst, strong enough penetrate even fate
Was chosen as the path for a
Speedy return to the old place where I left something
A dream in a different color blooms and
The work continues to perform without the script of the past
But the ending I retrieve is faithful to the original

Monopolized the licenses for the highlights
To be passed down to the next life
Surprise package of styles compiled from the east and west
Myka9 and Kaigen double headliner
Alley oop pass complete from the west coast to Zipang
Light up hiphop’s future as the buzzer signals the end of this jam

Originally known as Microphone Mike, in the 80s he was a member of the MC Aces with Aceyalone and Spoon Iodine. As one of the founding members of Freestyle Fellowship, Myka 9 was instrumental in the scene at the Good Life Cafe in the early 90s. (Timetable contains some of his live recordings from the Good Life Cafe open-mic.) As one of the most stylistically advanced rappers at the Good Life, Myka 9 has had a profound influence on L.A. underground hip hop and freestyle rapping in general. Discussing the influence of Myka 9's song "7th Seal," released in 1991 on Freestyle Fellowship's To Whom It May Concern, Ellay Khule said, " '7th Seal' blew everybody's mind for at least 2 years straight. People studied that shit backwards and forwards -- even we don't know all those words. That made everybody say like 'I gotta get a tape out' or 'I can't rap like so-and-so no more. I can't be in 80s, now we movin' to the 90s.' That totally transferred our musical thought." Drummer and producer JMD said, "Mike was like the Charlie Parker of all these motherfuckers."

He is known for rapid-fire, jazz-influenced, melodic rapping, often incorporating singing and occasionally scatting into his songs. Myka has said of his style, “My rhymes take the direction of a jazz trumpet or sax solo, like Miles or Trane, if I was to rhyme in the same meter as those notes . . . that’s my concept.”
