Been a minute I did one of these, but lately I find myself goin' back often to that late 90's Ummah sound, and one of the MC's very much in the midst of it was this man called Consequence.

A full cousin of Q-Tip, he made his 1st splash on the flip of Tribe's '93 "Award Tour" single, and 3 years later had a lot of cameo's as well on the "Beats, Rhymes & Life" album, but when his own debut album was due in '97/'98 -reportedly titled "Hostile Takeover"-, it somehow didn't take off.

Fast forward a few years, Cons signed with Kanye's "GOOD Music" imprint, and finally released his official debut "Don't Quit Your Day Job!" in 2007.
But although a solid outing, and with good reviews to boot, it didn't shift the (likely) anticipated numbers for an artist signed to a label by a boss, who at that point in time was becoming one of the largest in the game.

So Cons went back to his grind, kept putting in the work, dropped a series of mixtapes over the years, as well as steadily stream of singles, and guested also on various songs for Tribe's 2016 swansong "We Got It From Here...".

Since a lot of Cons' material is so scattered (and in most cases hard to find on streaming services too), I assembled & sequenced all the tunes I dig, starting with most of the stuff made for his shelved late 90's debut (which covers 1/3rd of the tracklist on this), added some singles from over the years, a few choice cuts from his mixtapes + some cameo verses as well, only to round it all up with his very 1st appearance from 1993 (which serves as an intro here), in an effort to kinda create a version of his shelved debut album.

Consequence reportedly is in the final stages of finishing up his sophomore LP called "Nice Doing Business With You", and if you like his stuff, this'll probably hold you over for a sec.

Moreover, if you're a fan of that 'snappy' late 90's Dilla/Tip/ Ummah/Soulquarians type of sound, this certainly is your thang.

Great soundtrack for a sunny Sunday, imho  ;)

This lecture discusses key ideas from the ancient Stoic philosopher Seneca's work, On The Happy Life

It focuses specifically on his claim that "virtue is its own reward". The Stoics (among others) maintain that virtue is both necessary and sufficient for human happiness, and that nothing else is as valuable as virtue.

Seneca, On The Happy Life - Virtue As Its Own Reward - Sadler's Lectures

This is an archive of the Clean Up Hour. Tonight takes us back to the summer of 2004, where Jadakiss was everywhere promoting Kiss of Death (including G-Phoria, rather than the Spike Video Game Awards, as I misremembered!), the American government continued to astound by virtue of its un-reality, and I was just enjoying life as a carefree ten year old who wanted to take in all the hip hop and video games that he could. The summer had a number of releases that, I argue, made clear to my younger self why I wanted to go further into the world of rap music, so tonight's mix reflects that.

Catéchèse du P. Mathieu - 2024-11-07 La prière pour les défunts

Karma’s Wheel

Karma’s Wheel is a haunting, bluesy folk ballad that delves into the inevitable journey of cause and consequence. Inspired by the timeless wisdom, “When we do bad deeds, our bad deeds will lead us to sufferings in the future,” the song paints a vivid picture of how actions echo back to the soul in mysterious ways. Sung by Dionysus, the Greek god of revelry, his earthy yet otherworldly voice brings the weight of karmic law to life.

The lyrics unfold like a fable: shadows, secrets, and fleeting moments all reveal the subtle traps woven by past actions. Through verses, we hear tales of words left unmeasured and deeds done in darkness, each carrying an unseen price. The chorus captures the powerful notion that our choices reverberate, casting fragile hearts and filling familiar paths with reminders of our own actions. The bridge poignantly reminds listeners that karma’s wheel turns without mercy, pulling us back to face what we have sown.

Set to a soulful blend of acoustic guitar, rolling basslines, and evocative keyboard notes, Karma’s Wheel envelops listeners in a sense of eerie beauty and introspection, making it a modern folk tale that resonates deeply with anyone who has felt the weight of consequence.

[Verse]
When shadows whisper secrets dark
And hearts are heavy with their mark
The echoes of what once was bold
Will soon return a tale retold

[Verse 2]
A deed is done in moon's faint light
A consequence will grip so tight
The wheels of fate they spin around
For every wrong a loss is found

[Chorus]
Bad deeds they boomerang back fast
In moments fragile hearts are cast
The suffering it finds a home
In paths where we once used to roam

[Verse 3]
A reckless word a fleeting glance
Will set the stage for second chance
But karma's wheel it turns so true
The past will always find what's due

[Bridge]
You can't escape the seeds you've sown
In gardens wild they've overgrown
The tangles twist and pull you near
Reminding you that fate is clear

[Chorus]
Bad deeds they boomerang back fast
In moments fragile hearts are cast
The suffering it finds a home
In paths where we once used to roam

Elevate Your Everyday - Eric Le Reste - Thursday 16th January 2025

Our Loving Father sends us trials in which we have a choice of trusting Him or flesh.  Every choice you make should be of the heart...no hyprocracy.
You are alive to love...and to experience many things in this process.
Do you live your life by desire?  ob opinion?  or Truth?
We don't know the way, but we know Who The Way is.
When God does something through you, you are fulfilled.

dBridge invites Consequence - 10 September 2025

You ever wonder how quick it happened? One moment — a garden, rivers, perfection. The next — shame, hiding, blame. From paradise to exile in a single afternoon. 

The Garden-The Scene & The Crime

This piece is dedicated to the consequences of irreversible mistakes. The dramatic strings and powerful, reverbed piano chords give "Bitter Price" a cinematic weight, underscoring the universal struggle with regret and having to pay the emotional cost. A profound track for moments of acceptance and grief.

Starlight Express - Bitter Price

The song combines the sounds of Electronic, Hip Hop, Funk/Soul, Classical and Pop. It has an upbeat feel with a steady beat that is energetic and danceable. The lyrics are simple yet powerful in nature but convey strong messages about love and relationships. Overall it's an emotional rollercoaster ride that will leave you feeling happy or satisfied depending on how you

This is What Standing Costs

The story I tell isn’t clean or polished. It’s raw, real, and unapologetically true. Within it lies something worth holding onto—about love, loyalty, or power. My sound is cinematic trap designed for night drives: low, dry vocals folding into cold precision with no filler. Born and bred in Jordan, I bring sharp edges and stark realities to every beat.
