Name: Grind by Twane Laden
Duration: 3 min 9 s
Description: “Protector” is Twane Laden standing ten toes down loyal to the code, guarding his name, his people, and his grind. Every track reflects the weight of responsibility that comes with being real in a world full of fakes. It’s the sound of survival, heart, and honor a story of someone built to protect what matters most: respect, family, and the dream

Let's talk when we get home
I feel it in my-
I feel it in my bones
I can't even concentrate
Why you trynna conversate
Not trynna talk today
I can't even get you out my mental state
I ain't trynna diss you
But you the issue
Wish that I was lying
When I said I wanna kiss you
Lights, camera, flash
Why you feel like that
You just wanna hide your face
You really hate your past
Yeah, I feel it in my core
I hate when I talk to you baby cause I get bored
Counting my mother fucking cheddar
Yeah my life cannot be better
Playing around with berettas
Yeah we go at whoever
10 racks in my coat
No I am not patient
Talking in my head, helpful conversations

Let's talk when we get home, let's talk
Let's talk, let's talk, let's talk, let's talk
I feel it in my bones, I feel, I feel, I feel
I can't even concentrate
I can't even conversate
Please can we not conversate
Can we not talk today
Jumping out the range, jumping out
I can't even get you out my mental state
Out my, out my, I ain't trynna diss you
But you the issue, it's you, it's you
Wish that I was lying
When I said I-
When I said I didn't-
When I said I do not miss you
Wish that I was lying
Wish that I was lying
When I said I didn't miss you
I wanna kiss you

Jumping out the range
Not trynna conversate
Wish that I was lying
Wish that I was lying
When I said I didn't miss you
Jumping out the range
Not trynna conversate
Wish that I was lying
Wish that I was lying
When I said I didn't miss you
Jumping out the range
Not trynna conversate
Wish that I was lying
Wish that I was lying
When I said I didn't miss you
Jumping out the range
Not trynna conversate
Wish that I was lying
Wish that I was lying
When I said I didn't miss you

Chito Ranas vs Acito - Help Me Can't Breathe (WAR)

Murder My Shadow

I went ahead and took "Xenon Universe" and re-imagined it in the form of a late 90s-early 2000s era progressive trance track. It is especially inspired by Ferry-Corsten tracks of the time, Tri-State era Above & Beyond, and OceanLab. Like the original version, this song is heavily built around supersaw leads. The arps of this track are admittedly inspired by Deadmau5's extremely popular track, "Faxing Berlin." This track was composed on the new Ableton Live 12.3 update.

Xenon Universe Trance Mix

Yo, when you feel your love's been taken,
It hits hard like a shot, got my heart shakin’,
When you know there’s somethin’ missin’,
In the dark, we’re barely hangin’ on, no admission,

You rest your head upon my chest,
Feel like there ain't nothin' left, just a mess,
Damn, I’m afraid that what we had is gone,
Echoes of the love, but the fire's withdrawn.

But then I think of the start,
And it echoes a spark,
Magic electricity, ignitin’ in the dark,
Look in my heart, see a light in the dark,
Still a flicker of hope, you first gave me that spark, x2

When you lay there and you’re sleepin’,
Patterns of your breathin’, got my soul weepin’,
Talkin’ to the ceilin’, askin’ what you’re thinkin’,
Got me questionin' everything, feelin’ like we’re sinkin’,

And damn, I’m afraid that what we had is gone,
These memories replay, like they’re stuck on a song.
I’ve been the One for you all along
Started off Shakey, but we ended up Strong 

But then I think of the start,
And it echoes a spark,
Magic electricity, ignitin’ in the dark,
Look in my heart, see a light in the dark,
Still a flicker of hope, you first gave me that spark, x2

I want this to pass, I hope it won’t last,
Last too long, baby, let’s move fast,
Diggin’ through the rubble, we can make it last,
Remember the highs, forget about the past.

So lay your head down, baby, let’s find our peace,
In the chaos of love, let this tension cease,
Please, don’t leave, we can fight the storm,
Got that flicker of hope, keepin’ love warm.

But then I think of the start,
And it echoes a spark,
Magic electricity, ignitin’ in the dark,
Look in my heart, see a light in the dark,
Still a flicker of hope, you first gave me that spark, x2

Yo, when you feel your love's been taken,
It hits hard like a shot, got my heart shakin’,
When you know there’s somethin’ missin’,
In the dark, we’re barely hangin’ on, no admission,

You rest your head upon my chest,
Feel like there ain't nothin' left, just a mess,
Damn, I’m afraid that what we had is gone,
Echoes of the love, but the fire's withdrawn.

But then I think of the start,
And it echoes a spark,
Magic electricity, ignitin’ in the dark,
Look in my heart, see a light in the dark,
Still a flicker of hope, you first gave me that spark, x2

Relax // Relapse

Twane Laden is more than an artist he’s a voice for those living between survival and success. Raised in the trenches where loyalty meant everything and the odds were stacked from the start, Twane’s music reflects a life that’s been battle-tested. Every bar is rooted in reality from the weight of loss to the hunger for more, from betrayal to elevation.

With a sound shaped by Bay Area legends like The Jacka and a delivery all his own, Twane blends pain, perspective, and poetry into every track. He doesn’t just rap he paints pictures, turning trauma into testimony and silence into sound. Whether it’s riding through the city in reflection or mobbin’ with purpose, his music carries motion and meaning.

Twane built his name from the ground up, dropping real, relatable music without the industry machine. His following is growing organically drawn to his authenticity, sharp pen, and cinematic visuals. From trap beats to soul samples, Twane adapts, but never loses himself. He’s not chasing trends he’s telling truths.

Now, with a focused vision and catalog to match, Twane Laden is ready to scale his message and make his mark. His story isn’t just compelling it’s necessary. And his music? It’s not just hot. It’s valuable.
