Transport yourself to the 1800s UK, how would we all cope?

---

(Verse 1 – The 1800s)
Yo, step back, welcome to the scene
Eighteen-something, streets ain’t clean
Got a toothache? That’s your doom
'Cause the barber’s also runnin' the surgery room

No NHS, just a priest and a prayer
If your leg’s infected—saw it off right there
Cholera in the tap, soot in your lung
Kids workin' shifts 'fore their teeth had sprung

Vote? Only if you’re male, land and pale
Women silent, stuck on society’s rail
Rights? Limited. Wages? Pitiful
Die at forty, that's statistically typical

No bin men, rats ran the game
Smoke stacks rising, sky full of blame
Wash once a week, maybe—if lucky
Life was cheap, short, dirty, and mucky

(Hook)
Now you moan 'bout a crack on your iPhone screen?
You got central heat, Wi-Fi, and vaccines
Look around, don't get it misunderstood
You might not feel rich—but you haven’t had it so good

You got rights, got voice, got time to complain
While your great-great-gran birthed ten in the rain
Food in the fridge and the water runs clean
That’s luxury, fam—nineteenth never seen

(Verse 2 – Zooming In on Then vs Now)
Got taxed back then? Yeah—but no say
Just a duke and a lord takin' what they may
Today you whine when the rates get bumped
But at least the pound ain’t locked in a trunk

Wanna talk rights? Try zero, zilch
No safety laws when you're workin’ that mill
Fall in a loom? Your arm's the cost
Boss shrugs once, productivity lost

You tweetin' stress from your ergonomic chair
But they were breathin' coal dust in the tenement air
Childbirth back then? A coin toss fight
Now you got midwives, pain meds, and light

(Hook)
Yeah, you're vexed 'cause the Wi-Fi’s slow
But nobody's typhoid sick in the flat below
We got flaws, but let’s get it understood
Compared to the past—you haven’t had it so good

Netflix, Uber, Deliveroo drop
You got ten ways to earn without leavin' your block
Universal vote, clean code of law
Back then? Jail for stealin’ bread from a store

(Bridge – Spoken Word Style)
No antibiotics.
No social safety net.
No weekends.
No childhood past the age of ten.

And if you were poor?
Forget it.
You lived, worked, died—
and maybe made a mark as soot on a chimney wall.

(Final Verse – Message to the Present)
So check your blessings in the modern light
Ain’t sayin' life’s perfect, but respect the fight
We stand on the bones of the ones who bled
For the rights and the dreams you inherit instead

So next time you sigh 'cause your bus runs late
Think of walkin’ miles just to earn that plate
Gratitude’s power, let’s get that in the blood—
'Cause truth is, my G, you haven’t had it so good.


Haven’t Had It So Good

🔊 *[Intro]*  
Yo, turn the volume up, let’s take it back,  
To the era of boom-bap, no mumble, just facts.  
When the mic was a weapon, beats hit like fire,  
And every rhyme told a story to lift you higher.  

🔥 *[Chorus]*  
We was livin’ that *Nuthin’ But a G Thang* way,  
Rollin’ deep like it’s *California Love* every day.  
Before the world got cold, before the game changed,  
Man, I miss the vibe of them good old days.  

🎤 *[Verse 1]*  
Yo, it was all a dream, late nights writin’ lines,  
Had the tape deck spinnin’, press rewind one time.  
I was *Hypnotized* by the way Big flowed,  
That *Juicy* inspiration had the whole world cold.  

We was cruisin’, bass bumpin’ *Regulate* smooth,  
Posted on the block with that *Check the Rhime* groove.  
Back when *Me Against the World* felt real,  
And every song was a movie, every verse had feel.  

🔁 *[Chorus]*  
We was livin’ that *Nuthin’ But a G Thang* way,  
Rollin’ deep like it’s *California Love* every day.  
Before the world got cold, before the game changed,  
Man, I miss the vibe of them good old days.  

🔗 *[Bridge]*  
They say time moves, but legends don’t fade,  
Still hear Pac whisperin’ through the Serenade.  
From *Dear Mama* love to that *Protect Ya Neck* sound,  
Every classic still echoes, forever profound.  

🎶 *[Verse 2]*  
Now I’m watchin’ the game, feelin’ lost in the mix,  
Ain’t no more *Mo Money, Mo Problems*, just clicks.  
The beats still knock, but the soul feels missin’,  
Back when Rakim had wisdom, and Nas had vision.  

Can we bring it back? Feel the *Ruff Ryders’ Anthem*,  
Let the DJ cut it like it’s 96, throw tantrums.  
We still ride, still vibe, keepin’ heads ringin’,  
And when the beat drops—still *Can’t Stop, Won’t Stop* singin’.  

🎧 *[Outro]*  
So let’s reminisce, let’s pour one out,  
For the legends who built it, no fear, no doubt.  
From Brooklyn to L.A., ATL to the Bay,  
90s hip-hop forever—the good old days.  

The Good Old Days

[Verse 1]
Back when the boom bap blessed the block,
And It Was All a Dream just ticked the clock.
We played Nuthin’ But a ‘G’ Thang out the ride,
Cruisin’ with California Love on the west side.

Before the streaming, before the tweets,
It was Me Against the World on cracked concrete.
Had my headphones on like a crown of flame,
Every rhyme a prayer, every beat a name.

[Chorus]
These are the good old days, rewind the tape,
Before the world changed shape and lost escape.
With a Paid in Full heart and a Juicy dream,
We lived in the loops and the rhyme schemes.
These are the days, don’t let them fade,
Where legends rose and the tracks were made.

[Verse 2]
Sippin’ Gin & Juice with the crew on the stoop,
Learned the truth from The Score, in a cipher loop.
Protect Ya Neck, we shouted to the skies,
With Ms. Jackson tears in our mothers’ eyes.

No TikToks, just tickin’ clocks,
We learned life from The Chronic and Illmatic drops.
Taped it off the radio, static and soul,
A story in every sample, bold and cold.

[Bridge]
Tell me, where were you when Brenda Had a Baby?
Or when Dear Mama played and drove us crazy?
We weren’t rich, but we had our say —
Spoke truth in the mirror like we were Dre Day.

[Chorus]
These are the good old days, don’t press skip,
Feel the crackle of the vinyl in every whip.
From C.R.E.A.M. to No Diggity, we knew the way,
Mic in our hands, no bills to pay.
These are the days, real and raw,
Living life in bars we still adore.

[Outro – Spoken Word Style or Looped Hook]
Just give me that Electric Relaxation,
A little T.R.O.Y. in my rotation.
One more time, before it slips away —
The soundtrack of a golden day.

These Are The Good Old Days

back in the day like we used to play everday

Back In The Day

🎧 Hey, this is DJ Billy! 🔊

Catch my latest playlist, a two-part R&B mix where soul meets rhythm, and the past dances with the present.

Feel the silky keys, smooth basslines, and slow-burning beats that make R&B the heartbeat of emotion. Vocals that melt into melodies, guitars that cry, drums that breathe.

From the timeless fire of Carlos Santana's strings to Chris Brown's slick moves and melodies, to the sultry soul of Summer Walker, the Amapiano twist of Tyla, and the lyrical truth of Kendrick. This mix is a story told in harmonies, heartbreak, and heat.

Whether you’re cruising slow or lost in your feelings, this one’s for the real ones who feel the music.

Press play and let R&B speak.

DjBilly.SA - 2025 R&B Pt.I

DjBilly.SA - 2025 R&B Pt.II

The Krossed Kidz drop their debut single “FLIP!” — a wild, cartoonish, 90s-inspired rap anthem with inside-out style and non-stop energy. This track brings back the era of boom-bap beats, goofy confidence, and schoolyard swagger. If you ever wore your shirt backwards and thought it was fly... you ain’t seen nothin’ till you FLIP it!

FLIP!

Bruvnors Got Beatz

Alex P and Chris Spillman played football and were friends a long time before they came
together and formed Bruvnors.
Chris had been asking Alex to come in the studio with him for some time. The turning point
was when Chris sent some of his work to Alex, he liked what he heard and when they got
together in the studio found they had many of the same traits and work ethics. Now they
have the perfect working relationship complementing each other and have come up with a
unique sound.
Expect to hear a lot more from the Bruvnors
