Busdriver & milo - Snake Lake Remix

Hark

Smang Life (Instrumental)

GRILL INSTRUMENTAL

"Look What This World Did To Us." The command is rhetorical. You're already aware of the echo, the generational discontent and alienation, the whispered and denied calls for absolution. No need to look around, just check your bank account and sigh-or echo Biggie and scream, "fuck the world." 

Or melt into the couch and absorb Red Pill's debut for Mello Music Group-a novel disguised as an album, a surly hymn from poisoned lungs. It's a confirmation of what John Cage once declared: "all great art is a form of complaint." 

Or maybe the better comparison is Bukowski, memorializing the "broken factory windows of emptiness." That makes more sense in Ferndale, Michigan where Red Pill calls home. After college graduation, "Leonard Letdown" started working at a machine shop. A temporary gig turned into a labor daze. The dream of converting music into rent money seemed more elusive by the day. 

Depression compounded. The empty packs of cigarettes turned into cellophane towers. The whiskey mixed with an absence of hope. This album is a signal flare, an escape route, and catharsis. This isn't just hip-hop, this is an attempt to distill the disillusion and cure the hangover. It's both a brilliant mission statement and a jazzy funeral for what was promised but never delivered. 

This is for those who played by the rules only to discover that the game was rigged. This is a toast for those entering their late 20s and still acting like adolescents. It's an anti-Valentine to marriage and mortgages. It offers empathy for those buried under student loan and credit card debt, but who refuse to sink. Even if the smoke rings appear like nooses, this is an artful rebuttal to the nihilism. 

Your favorite song will be determined by what theme you relate to most. Look What This World Did To Us is in league with the best of early Atmosphere or Open Mike Eagle's Dark Comedy, a modern hustle of machinery and migraines. A commemoration of going a quarter century without a foundation and an acknowledgement of the nerves that accompany a future built atop fault lines. These are the late night conversations you have with your friends. The idle nights and empty bottles, the hard questions that come after you realize the world might not be yours.

paranoid in public where did my mask go?
i gotta keep my head up and my flask low
lightin cigarettes on a gas stove
nothin like gettin a piece of ass in a grass grove

i love gettin it in when i’m outside
i drink the juice of a pussy when my mouths dry
the wind sins every time it lets the blouse fly
but my dirty mind gets cleansed when the clouds cry

think outside of the box, smokin a square
lipstick lingers on the cig cause we’re broke and we share
you got the heart of a swamp and the eyes of an ocean
when i’m cracked and dry you let me lie in your lotion

i go on walks with you, so i can talk to you
but i only write love songs in chalk for you
cause the feelings always get washed away
just appreciate the sunshine before it turns grey


loosie that didn't make Free Beer

Break It Down

pothole freestyle
produced by j cole

I’ve been digging everyday
digging for the truth
digging in my pockets
digging for the raw shit
digging in the crates
i know i’m sick
i got my delivery from the greats

yuh
i miss the d and d days
analog: think about the discipline it takes
now’s a little different cuz it’s digitally made
digi design with a desktop you get busy right away

yeah. listen to some biggie hit a j 
then hit up j. like ‘lets record man I’m on the way’
coming from virginia? yea it took us in a wake.
clipse said it ‘they ain’t shit to do but cook up in va’
yeah. 

fuck J! i can kill him on a page
if you ask him he’ll have something very similar to say (fuck rick)
so when we get together we some killers on a stage
killing other rappers like there really isn’t enough space

these other rappers garbage you could count em out
i only fuck with a few rappers you could count em out
been around the world the (ox) getting louder now
but now they sayin i lack melanin i’m not allowed

wait so let me just break what you say
an asian to you can not participate. ok
well they told me to say no more
but lately i couldn’t take no more
cuz i live like this all day long
so let me say something to yall
ready?

i’m speaking for my culture and associates.
saying that we culturally appropriate 
i mean appropriate’s getting a little inappropriate.
let’s get a eye to eye level balance on perspective
and respectfully maybe then we could both see it.
maybe it's not even the words coming out my mouth
maybe it's the way that we keep on both approaching it.
you know what i’m saying? 
so let me flip this shit…

is nicki one of the queens of this rap shit? man of course she is!
i was bumping nicki’s version of big’s warning early
before she hit her first million views or a deal.
i love her so much but for the sake of being real
look i’m still getting grilled because i talk too heavy
meanwhile there’s chun li, chinx and kung fu kenny
that’s one too many but listen: I don't care if u don’t
i’m just making sure that you know i won't trip if you won’t
let’s make it fair. jason got hated because he braided hair linsanity! 
just cuz i rap people are mad at me 

they claim i can’t do rap. man how I do that? 
i was brought up by the ‘do that that do that that’
i’m breathing boombap the bass and two claps
an asian dude that do that they just see another dude act black
crazy

so i don’t care man if you agreeing or not.
it’s the come up of me and brother
the year of the (fuck that)
id had to make a statement before makin a club track
i had to make some changes so behavior’s above that
too many motherfuckers attacking so i had to bust back
believe it or not there’s some asians that love rap like a matrimony. 
man i’ve been rapping all my life that it comes naturally
man i was mastering the master of ceremony. 
dilla tracks? i attached it on me. 
so who the fuck are you to tell me it’s not my passion homie?
huh?

you think i’m exploiting to makin money?
you want the mic back right?
fuck it. then take it from me.
cuz imma keep fighting you back like korean zombie
spray it in the streets like my name seen and dondi
yea. man i got you.
you know how the yox do.
the 1985 crew. j cole is an ox too!
real get it. if you don’t get it forget it.
this goes out to all the ones that think my life is a costume

get the fuck outta here
