Joe Hisaishi is all I listen to when I need some peace, pause, and pianos. But I'm a lyric type of guy so I end up freestylin to all his piano melodies (imagine sitting next to me in a piano recital that would be F'd). I recorded this tantrum of rhymes! 

Verse over 'Joe Hisaishi' Kid's Return

Man this beat is SMOOTH as a babys bottom slidin down a pool slide. Hmm. Neways, I just spit a rap to this, something about pirating cds, pirating clothes, counterfeit tvs, counterfeit everything -all of that. I pretty much wrote this while I was in CHINA haha, Lai! Lai!

Pirate List (over a G-unit beat)

Man this is old as well, this was last year just after the Japanese tsunami. We raised donations ($76k) to give out to people in Japan hence the line (my people dying in tsunamis / we raised 76k, next we gone raise an army). Oh and btw yes I tried rapping some of my rhymes in Japanese. Feels great when people are like 'yea it sounds good because i dont know WTF he's talking about' cheers
