Manhattan Skyline

See the trick is...

to bring your soul just a little closer to mine
and we can show em just how poetry in motion's defined now.
is there any other place you suggest we be?
just hold my hand and we can fall in less than 3.....2....1
while im dippin in a daze serendipity's affinity is imminent
innocent as dreams unraveled..feeling as pristine as the ceiling of the sistine chapel.
you're my.. my main course.. appetizer and "hors de orderv"
pay no mind to those with no nerve..
trying to "court" you.. with us its Love-40
and Beauty is in the eye of he who holds serve..
I've dubbed thee..
my pharaoh..
the smoking barrell on which my trust is fulfilled..
with the lips of lust.. that clutch the kiss..
that always break me down..

but leaves me with enough to build.



my verse off my upcoming song "Manhattan Skyline"


Happy New Years everybody :]
Peace & Prosperity...

2 Thousand & 10
My Moment Of Zen.

Spizeech Fo My Mama Dukes

First and foremost I would like to thank everybody for making it here. This past year has been one for the books. We have had a mixture of good times and bad times. We have faced hardships that may have shaken the ground we have walked upon. But the fact that we are still standing together, is evidence that we are all strong enough to keep on fighting the fight. Today marks a day in which we celebrate not only the spirit of Christmas, but the spirit of life. At this point in time, we may not have all the diamonds, jewels and material possessions that we wish to obtain, but it is within these times that we find the truest gifts that we could ever ask for. I have realized that although I may not be a millionaire, I have my family, my friends, and my good health. For it is with these priceless treasures, that we stay rich, maybe not within our wallets, but within our souls. We spend today under the heavens and let us are reminded that the best things in life truly are free. I would like to welcome everybody into my home and I hope that you enjoy the time we spend together and that when it is time to say goodbye, you leave with love and faith within your hearts, and great food within your bellies. I would like to thank you again for making the trip here. I cherish everybody’s presence and I would like to dedicate this night, to our yesterdays, yesteryears, and to the tomorrows that we have ahead of us to paint with the vibrant colors of life’s paintbrush on destiny’s canvas. Merry Christmas, Happy New Years, and let us celebrate love, life and happiness. Thank you Lord for all the blessings you have shared with all of us. Amen

Merry Christmas to all.
Happy Holidays and I wish everybody nothing but the best.











Peace & Prosperity.

Space Jams 12.23.09

man man man... the release was just incredibly crazy. Even though it was dubbed a "General Release"... the event that took place at the palisades mall made it seem as if it was a Quickstrike/Limited release kind of thing. I was just amazed that people started lining up at around 12 PM Noon. I laughed at the idea that people were camping out. I knew it was the "Space Jams" but I also knew this was a General Release (sidenote: this means there is a mass production run of the product and that it should be readily available for everybody) and that is why I did not stress out camping out so early.

I had went to the mall around 4-ish with my brother and my sister in order to do some last minute shopping and we had passed by Footlocker, and there was 20 people there. Once again, I was told that there would be 100+ pairs available for sale and I did not really think I would need to camp out so early for them. I stopped by both champs and finishline and noticed there were no lines there what so ever. This again only added to my logic of not having to camp out.

By the time I got home, I was plotting my mission. I was going to go at 10 just to be safe, then wait and walk out with a pair of 'Jams. I left my room and switched from my OG Colorway White Reebok "The Pump" Retro's to my beat up (..really beat up) pair of Grape 5's since I figured I might as well keep it in theme. Yellow Soles for Icey Soles lol.

Once i got to the mall I had seen that there was a line bending around the corner for Footlocker and that they had already given out tickets for those who were early and they were going to sell the pairs by that system. I had passed by and saw my boys E Dot Fresco and John M Thirteen (their new mixtape should be out soon and I can only assume it's gonna be dope) and I thought they were in line for the Space Jams as well. I decided to go check the scene out at Champs since there was nobody camping there the last time.

I had arrived there and saw about 10 people lined up and I had no worries what so ever. I then was spotted by my family friend Dino. (Sup Tito Rick!) He had told me that there was a list already planned out by the store and that they were going to sell there 66 pairs by that system. At this point, I was assed out because I had forgotten to call or visit the store to put my name on the list. My boy Dino then told me that if I could get somebody to hold down his spot at Champs while he went to pick up his pairs at Footlocker, he could secure me my pair with no problem.

Well, the problem was I had nobody available at the time. The only person I had available was my brother but he was too exhausted from running around the whole day to do christmas shopping. I was there just chilling wondering what the hell I was going to do. At this point, I was last priority and I would need to hope that somebody either got incredibly wasted and forgot about the release or decided that they did not want the jams anymore.

During the time I was waiting, I was in the company of my boy Dino, his lil brother Brandon, Mike, E Dot & John M 13, Julius (sup man) and others. We did what usual sneakerheads did and discussed how the game is these days and what pairs we want to have in our possession in the future. Time was winding down and I was still unsure as to how I was going to secure my pairs.

By the time everybody started making an official line, I got a message that would lead to my night ending on a positive note. Dino told me that he would need me to stand in as an extra body and just for that, I would be able to get my pair.

I dont want to post all the details but let me just say this.

-I ended up with a size 9.5
-Dino got about dozens and dozens of pairs of Space Jams (I cannot deny this man's hustle..just amazing)
-The Champs release was unorganized and unruly as shit.
-So many people were fucking rude and held us up at the Cash Register with their complaints about people walking out with multiple pairs even though the other pairs were kid's sizes. (However, I would be complaining too if I was told that my name would be called on a list just to end up finding out that they might have just discarded that system overall)
-We walked up straight to the front of Footlocker about half an hour after it started it's release, got into the store and was able to pick up multiple pairs (once again, I am just amazed at this guy's hustle)
-Walked out of Footlocker, bags in hand with everybody wondering "WTF?!?!!??"

I just want to say Thank you so much Dino. If it wasn't for your generosity and looking out for me coz we're "fam", I would not have my pair. You are the man.

At the end of this all, it made me realize something that I will post up in my upcoming blog entry.

Update

Footlocker = 20+ People lined up.
Finishline = 5+ People lined up.
Champs = None lined up.



Midnite Release. General Release. This shit'll only happen for Space Jams. rofl




Shall Keep Updated. Hopefully I end up with a pair :P

UNDERSTAND.. I'M BACK BY POPULAR DEMANNNNNNDD :P

Hi. My Name Is Kennard Medina And..

I Have An Addiction.

For those who know me know me, they know I am definitely an addict for sneakers. Some people might not understand a reason behind it, but shoes in general hold a certain meaning for me. Throughout life, we go on journies we will never forget. A big aspect for me, concerning those journies is how I traveled through each millisecond being suspended in every little frame. I also am an avid fan of art, whether it be musical, sculpture, painting, the human body ( :P ) etc. Shoes are also sculptures in my eyes. Sculptures that we wear on our feet. For example, Michael Jordan is one of my idols and to this day, he still influences the way I live my life today. It is because of his performance on the court (e.g. "The Flu Game") that I make sure I leave it all out on whatever surface (classroom, bball court, life? rofl) and give it my all. So with this said, I dedicate this "Addiction" post to my latest pickups.

20th Anniversary Reebok "The Pump" OG Bringback (Black & White Colorways)

I dont have to say much about these shoes except that in my eyes, they are DOPE. Classic shoe, Hightop Retro feel (sidenote: it seems like the trend that is goin on these days is the return of the hightop shoe...). Not to mention, the creme de la creme, the Pump. Luckily I was able to scoop up these pairs (18/29 for the "White Colorway" & 5/29 for the "Black Colorway") from Packershoes (sup Mike!) and boy was I "pumped" to get these (yes..i have filled my quota for lame drops for today :] ) lol. I would love to get my hands on backup pairs so I can just murder these pairs. The quality is top notch also, (Nike & Jordan Brand should take some pointers from Reebok when it comes to retro-ing a shoe properly..). Btw, my journey to get the Black Colorway was reeal reeal interesting, but I shall save that for another post. Anyways, without further adieu, I present to you... THE PUMP






Pardon my creamy (yucky) colored wall and messy desk :]

The Red Wave

"We The Best"

Thank You Professor Nardella for facilitating my growth and development as a nurse in the clinical setting. I wish you nothing but the best and hope that your future students are as cool as us and that they love, respect and appreciate you like we do :]

Its That Time Of Year Again....

It is 4:18 PM on the 11th of December in the year 2009. I am currently drinking soda out of a champagne glass while eating a turkey/swiss sandwich while watching Law & Order:SVU. At this very moment, I can't help but think about what has occurred the past couple of months.

I feel as if I've changed mentally,physically,and spiritually. I feel as if things are just starting to clear up. The world is now moving in slow motion and I can finally let out a breath that I have been holding in for a very long time.

I can't help but feel triumphant knowing how well I've done during this semester. My streak of 9's on the nursing exams and my growth and development in the clinical setting only provide evidence for my accomplishments. What makes it even more sweeter is that my close friends within the program (Kristine, Farele, Mark, Mary etc.) are doing well enough to know that next semester is within their grasp and that their holidays will be bright. I am so proud of not only myself, but them and the rest of my class. I can only hope that everybody murders the final to the point where everybody passes.

This is the first time I ever went out of my way to reach out to every single person in our class and I feel that it is what I should have been doing all along. I can only hope that everybody appreciates the work I have put into the act because I really do want to dedicate my time that I have to those who might not have it. I know its nearing around Christmas time, but I feel this shouldnt be constricted to only the holiday time. Med Surg is up next and I am going to try my best to make sure I kick ass ... along with my fellow students and close friends.

It has been a long time since i touched down with this blog and hopefully I will be able to do so on a more consistent basis.

What will make the end of 2009 perfect you might ask?

A Semester GPA of 3.5+
A Pair Of Air Jordan XI "Space Jams"
A Smile on the faces of those who love.

The World Is Yours... and like i said.

It is 4:18 PM on the 11th of December in the year 2009. I am currently drinking soda out of a champagne glass while eating a turkey/swiss sandwich while watching Law & Order:SVU and at this very moment, I can't help but think about what has occurred the past couple of months.

Tim Makes a mixtape

tracklisting:


ACT 1 ft (ian salgado,kevin cabanayan, adrian maghirang & nehemiah)
consists of tim's closest friends and biggest influences downtalking upon him.. and degrading him to nothing.. it acts as a starting point..yet is almost a finishing point..because people have already made up their mind, their opinion of what tim has to bring, or their opinion of tim's talent... without giving him a opportunity to showcase what he has.





i. jesus piece produced by scrilla beats

this is the reply to ACT 1.. which is why the opening bars start with "they got me feeling like this wasnt supposed to happen" ... the backdrop set by scrilla beats displays its triumph in terms of tim finally saying , you know what.. fuck you and have a good day.. this is for anybody who's felt like they have been downlooked upon and have no choice but to keep their head up.. sumtimes u gotta choke sum rappers with their own jesus piece lol


" its common to find forever if over the hill lies zion " word.





ii.2 for the show produced by future/mesta/bruddaman this follows the triumphant, which follows the "football" theme... hence "back them suckers off, do the heisman".. but in the middle of the track.. the beat switches up to a joint i originally was going to do but decided to give to tim after he dropped a sick verse on it, this shows his versatility in a sense where he's going from a triumphant track , trying to display his witty technique into a verse in which he talks about his ambition. we all know what a bucket list is (right?? lol) ..so basically thats what it is.. the verse also ends with a heartfelt line that most of us will be able to relate to.





iii.if you knew ft kennard medina produced by bruddaman..

and to end act 1, we have one of the very first joints tim recorded a year or 2 ago which is called if you knew, im featured on the first verse and on the beat (yuckk ;'[ @ my verse lol) but this was one of the first lyrical (lyrical) displays from tim. some of the things he's saying might fly right over people's heads but then again, it ties to the concept that people look down so much upon him that they just won't catch what he's saying anyways. this was special too because this was one of his first "one take" verses that he's ever done lol..





ACT 2

.. i told tim to tie in the tracks with his "act" which stands as statements, soliloquoys (sp?) if you will, i actually told tim, just press the record button and talk. so this is coming straight from the heart.





iv. my little hater ft cool beans & clientele produced by bruddaman/jay smooth


this track, man i remember hearing jay smooth do this almost a year ago i believe and i absolutely loved it, so i wanted to loop and dissect it to make a song almost. i should credit as "produced by jay smooth, looped by bruddaman" lol but still .. this track is supposed to display that sometimes, u just gotta laugh with the world when they're laughing at you.. it shows that tim is able to pinpoint his flaws, and still be able to have a good laugh, knowing that he's more than capable of working to resolve his flaws. one lesson i've told tim is to basically stop taking yourself so seriously. for those who know tim, he's a perfectionist, so for him to do this track is almost a dope concept in itself. he describes a character who has narcissistic, perverted and twisted ways, along with distorted facial and physical features.. and is really describing himself, but is able to pull it off so that people can laugh at it.. and so can he. The comedy value of this track only adds on with kevin "cool beans" cabanayan and kevin "clientele/my brother" medina.. they just "act a fool" on the track and are just so retarded but lovable. Jay smooth also hits with a chorus that is just so dope and ties it in all perfectly. we all have a little hater in all of us people, but dont let them be the one that drives you to insanity, but shows you that the flaws that we all possess, we can work at gradually and improve as people and at the same time, dont let it cripple you because YOU are your own worst enemy.





v. entourage ft e dot fresco & jay esperance produced by 6th sense


ian salgado is like one of tim's biggest influencesa nd this track, which flips the "entourage" theme song produced by 6th sense (one of my favorite up and coming producers) dropped this on his beat tape a couple months back and i thought this would be dope to fit jamie, tim and en's style. going from little hater, this track serves to point out the BEST/FRESHEST features in one self.. who went in the hardest? ( a real man shouldnt have to say no homo (c) jada ) .. well you decide :P





vi. rock steady ft kennard medina produced by bruddaman


rock steady was also one of the very first collaborations with me and tim. i also put this to end act 2 because this whole act was based on just being able to have a good laugh, have fun. Rock Steady, basically go at your own pace but have fun while doing so.


"the party will never be dead like hip hop when we rock steady" ... go at your own pace and dont fall victim to the fast speedy life that others may live.


but dont forget to check out the ILL ILL ( did i say ill? ) remix that one of my favorite up and coming producers (he is ...dope...) john m thirteen did.





ACT 3

ii would like to thank rachael nam for participating in this act. she plays the character of a girl who tim has met at the "rock steady" party and basically them conversing in a flirtacious way almost. for those romantics out there, we find love in places where we wouldnt expect to find it, dont we?... this also ties into the next triplet of songs because..well you'll see





vii. i like korean girls (bruhmix)


this is the song that tim chose to do his very first PERFORMANCE (disregard the sumn sumn tropical incident rofl!) and it was dope, only to be tainted by distorted vocals cos of sound problems but its all good tho, no blames no blames. this is an ode to the type of girl tim craves for (lol) ..so if you're korean, and a girl.. well tim likes you. it flips the k-pop smash hit - generation girls - gee song... and dont get me wrong, at first i rejected this idea and did NOT want to flip it for the love of me lol. eventually i flipped it and the song came out pretty good actually. if you're a dude, this'll be your guilty pleasure waka waka!!. but aye .. we dont discriminate we regulate any shade of that ass (c) big pun (rip) ^___^ v





viii. bitches aint shit ft. nehemiah produced by team green
the title pretty much sums it up. the content of the song is obviously aimed at those type of women that usually dont stand for anything except lust & sex. subliminally, it is also an ode to the real women out there, as evidenced by the closing lines " it takes a man to know a woman's worth and when a woman's worthless " ..nehemiah killed it with the hook and this is meant to be comedic yet with serious undertones. i decided to put this before the following track because it follows the setup of the 2 previous acts in where the act ends with the least recent track made .




ix. fall in love 2 ft. nehemiah produced by john m thirteen
this is an important song because this was tim's first real heartfelt song. it took alot out of him just to record this. this represents a time in his life where love took the drivers seat and possibly just drove him crazy. john m 13 once again murders the beat and its just soo smooth. this track is actually a remix from my original fall in love track that i produced and had nehemiah also sing on it also. Pardon tim's lil speech dedicated to the girl he had loved during the time. epitome of corn-on-teh cob




ACT 4
once again i told tim to just press record and talk about the incidents of falling in love and being at peace with yourself, the world, and everything else while facing nothing but anger and confusion.


x. mad at the world produced by bruddaman
mad at the world represents tim's inner self trying to escape through words. he bears his soul on this and talks about life experiences and all the messed up things he has had to endure in his lifetime so far. if you listen closely, the drumline to this might strike a chord to some because it is also found on another important song that tim recorded.



xi. come wander with me produced by ace 1-2/bruddaman
this .. i suggest.. if you have a weak stomach, do NOT listen to this just because it is really graphic and just plain out there. this is one of those tracks that i just did not want to hear on a first listen and me and tim actually went back and forth on the concept and why would he want to record a song like this. he speaks about a girl named MARGE who was raped by the males in her life, (especially father & brother) nd how she is basically a lifeless spirit stuck being alive. he also exposes a very horrid and perverted ending to the story. the funny thing is, there is almost a genius to it, metaphorically. me and tim were talking one day about me, him and en having contrasting styles almost. I then started to mention this track and its comparison to him as a person. if you recall, tim talks about going back to the very things that hurt him in the beginning of act 4. marge performs the very same act at the end of the song. this mixtape starts with the ending and ends with the beginning. i started to realize that tim just might have tried to display his view of his inner self through the very portrait of marge. and i even told him " tim i think you have been raped, of your smile, of your innocence, of your happiness " and that marge digging up his father's grave is the same thing as tim trying to dig and look for his inner being, his identity? his freedom? true love? sense of purpose? we all attempt to find the very answers to these questions and i felt thats what tim tried portraying in the image of marge. this is also very reminiscent of my vanilla sky track, in terms of metaphor and point of view. i applaud tim for stepping out on the limb to make this kind of track because it truly is just.. out there.



END - (ian salgado,kevin cabanayan, adrian maghirang & nehemiah)

the end is composed of the very same people who judged him in the beginning, coming around and changing their stance/position on tim and this time talking in a positive manner about him.





xii. you're my inspiration ft nehemiah produced by bruddaman
the project ends ...with the beginning.


this track is where it all started..


a song for a girl he liked. and thats where this whole journey began.

it is also almost like showing how thats everything almost starts.

a love for hip hop, a love for art,music,women.

and as spoken about in act 4, going back to the very first place/person/object that puts everything into motion..


the project started with the end and ended with the beginning, within it is a story that craves to be told, feelings that crave to be expressed, thoughts craving to be understood


and an emcee who just wants you to come wander with him.

pardon the fuzziness/feedback of some of the tracks such as you're my inspiration, our mic game isnt the greatest (rock band what?) but in the future i promise to upgrade the sound quality on the mixes since im still tryna better them and learn to accurately use EQ to my advantage ;'[



we hope you enjoy this project, feel free to comment, respond and anticipate tim's next mixtape coming soon.







.s2.

tim makes a mixtape. pt 1

finally.. after years of honing up to his skills and traveling through a learning process. tim (cyfe) has decided to make a project/ a collection/ a showcasing of his growth and talent as an emcee, a lyricist, a person.

the project is cut up into 4 different acts that correspond to a certain mood, a feeling, if you will.
the project is called " TIM:elapse " ...and yes i know people will probably be like... " oh man.. that sounds like Eminem's r\Relapse!!! omg u listen to dat bitch (c) kanye ??!!??... let me explain

everyone knows what a timelapse is,
and well thats what i felt this project was like.. its not just a mere collection of tracks that tim has created over the years of his emceeing..
its becoming witness to a unique type of growth that is being displayed through the outlet of music and lyrics.

first and foremost, i would like to thank those who have helped with the production of the mixtape, scrilla beats, futureproducers.com family, team green, 6th sense and ace 1-2.
special shout outs to john m 13, e dot fresco, jay esperance, my brother kevin medina (clientele),kevin "cool beans" cabo and nehemiah "my voice is hot sex" echevarriah jones..lol
without you guys none of this would be possible and i would like to say thank you for helping tim and sticking it out even though times got annoying as hell lol.

happy july 4th to everybody.

love is love prod bruddaman

oh yess i freaks it..
so peep game from the scorpio
blazin audio coz 'they know' like 'shawty lo'
im formatted, combatted with the best of them
the pendulum swings like the pendant that blings
over breakbreats (i break free)
oh what a feeling independence brings (it wont take me)
more than a minute of the new york type
like boom bap i stay true fo' life
nd hit that snoo snoo all night baby
i jump back on the block to redeem loss
in the jungle, travel the direction of the green moss
my will is "iron" man, i expel a beam force
coz im goood like snails in black bean sauce <---- i should get a thumbs up from my hopki lovers
but remorse i really lack a supply of,
unlike my mamousel parallel to my desire,
and when her and i lay.. it makes my day..
whenever..whenever..whenever

[chorus]
i say..
i really gotta go
she says..
baby nothing is impossible to meeeeee
and im reminded of why she's my queeeen
coz check it check it
i see her face right after i rock a show...
nd im reminded that i got a globe
to seeee and conquer..
and i want her right beside...of me

[verse 2]
from park benches marked with both names in abundance
to nights where she's layin dorsal recumbent
and her body's screamin my name out loud
like the principal did, in second grade
i was told getting laid was the principal kid
then i matured (around the same time)
ladies was giving tours (in they state of mind)
cant front, i explored ( but on train 9 )
i detoured like this life patnah..i need more
thats when i met her...mesmerized by the way her hips swung
sharp as a thorned rose..nd im thinking
im not down with the heart break syndrome,
but i manage to see her within the image of my synths...drums
i guess that was the hook, line sinker
then in the blink of an eye...
her nd i formed together..
now we growin together..
[like forever? like forever ever? ...pretty much...like whenever]

[chorus 2x]

summa cum laude prod bruddaman

[EN]
well..
first off i would like to thank ken medina
coz my demeanor has been cleaner eversince i first seen ya
(now im meaner)
focused and my vision is more clear
june 22nd but i aint tryna see no tears
i love college so im tryna go there
standing ovations like the crowd got no chairs
no competition like the kid got no peers
feelin the buzz like being drunk off four beers
and i got the most brain in the past 4 years (yehhh)
this for every test that i cheated on
girl that i cheated on
breast that i skeeted on
head that was so the bomb
bed that i beat it on
and every now? when they hear this song
s.a.t's a.c.t's finals and that e.l.a
the perfect scores with a 4.0 gpa
girls put average im summa cum laude
turn me on..i'll have summer cum loudlyy

[chorus]
this is ...dedicated to those who tried to out me..
and anybody with a shadow of a doubt...
say it proudly.. (WE MADE IT)
We Top Class... SUMMA CUM LAUDE
and all my peoples in the crowd get rowdy
at the peak of our game is where we shall be
say it proudly ( WE MADE IT )
We Top Class... SUMMA CUM LAUDE'

[kennard]
heres a toast to the cadence of life's ballad
i was told success would never come down my alley
then sumbody told me it would be coming momentarily
patience is the key..so i took the key like the valet
then i learned the access was invalid
i swear i'd wreak havoc
but i took it like another challenge
i couldnt have done it without my lil jean charlotte
by my side claiming WE THE BEST like dj khaled
so i never staggered..
even in a drought so arid
my imagination stayed avid
took charge like a matador
im born a savage now i shine like the dawn im lavish
through the fire.. and through the barricades
through the eye of the tigher
i still break a "sucka/sucker down" like "salivary amylase"
so gimme all of my accolades and

[chorus]

yo i am..
soon to be the bachelor with the baccalaureate
in the batch of.. poet laureates
wordsmiths, nurses
a birth of the nation.
brighter tomorrows. the first indication
that change is PRESENT like the NOW
so catch the drift just like the NILE
maturity is the foundation of the style
(so whats next)
the presidential or puttin down payments on a residential
or finding the girl of my dreams..and givin her the ring
so we both could walk down the aisle
a graduate.. progress gradual with the attitude
altitudes way higher than my aptitudes
but never frett
understand life is unraveled through its steps
and all these years we been.. hassled to death
but they can no longer say shit when we move our tassles TO THE LEFT and

[chorus]



good lookin to en for doing his thing the way he always does
tim/cyfe was posed to be on this but i dont know what happened lol

btw.. sucker/sucka down like salivary amylase..
salivary amylase is the enzyme in your mouth that breaks down food particles..
so its a double entendre like im beasting on a sucker ...and im beasting on a sucka.. emcee
ya dig? waka waka honk honk !

[verse 1]
i lurk in the open with burst devotion/
heart full of cursed emotions/
how could i reverse the notions? (of being an asian emcee)
if hip hop's well has run dry and the cure is to be un-I
then i'd rather stay as flagrant as me..
but theres no more patience to breed...
but the adrenaline got me roid ragin at speeds
and im in my zone..
but i know to take heed...
coz temptation is as flirtacious as greed..
and i know.. i know that they think that im trapped
in a box labed with the idea that rap
is my one trick pony and over the course of my career
or lack there of.. .i'd fail to attract their love...
as if i need it.. on a path with the drive of a mcclaren (huh)
i dare em to declare war once im enlisted in rap's draft...
we'll see who gets the last laugh

its just so rude they perceive me as a noob
and doubt that i could leave a beat (beat and bruised)
i throw em in the trunk..head for deep sea blues..
they'll bre FRESH to DEATH with their cement shoes
so dot yo i's and cross yo t's
coz its redemption as the cost of yo pleas...
they'll continue to sleep and snooze.. but when they wake
they better be on their p's and q's

now our hearts beat alike and yet a difference is still perceived
like its mundane in order for the pain to relieved
but the game is so sport like.. so i send my condolences to those who are
"too weak/2 week" like a "fortnight"
i used to be dork like.. label me kenNERD
then i spoke up and laced my voice with reverb/
tune in sumthing frequent/
what i produce put the boom in sequence
i will be known as the main event
see i was told if you fall off the horse..
get yo ass up and try again..i think its time to be reminding them
that we live in the land of the leviathan
where the seat is hotter than the scene pookie was dying in..
but im a "wiseguy" like "nicholas pileggi"
and for those tryna edge me..
you near the status of a veggie
coz you only "beat around" the "bush"
like "kim kardashian" cheating on reggie

[chorus]

explanations for those who may not understand
fortnight = 14 days = 2 weeks = "too weak"
hotter than the scene pookie was dying in= for those who HAVENT seen New Jack City
pookie is a crack fiend character portrayed by chris rock..and the scene of his death is in a room that is basically going up in flames... self explanatory

beat around the bush like kim kardashian cheating on reggie
-kim kardashian is going out with reggie bush... - i think yall get that...

its top floor exec baby, but my fall just looks lavished in guilt/
70 million hoops above madison square.. while guardin'/garden a tradition
but once in a while comes something so rare like..
cinnamon skin.indian hair. type/
similar stair height/ our surroundings have toasted to us baby
hindered whispers (its theiir night)
while our bodies fall victim to the impaired fight/
and what tomorrow brings will be the song sorrow sings/
as an angel with borrowed wings asks .. (is it)
a note on the pillow that reads..
"we made beautiful music together but love is not the synth i want as lead"..

now breathe....

"this is just insane
with all these feelings that you claim
im just another reason for you to say we're all the same
but you got no one to blame
when you choose to play this deadly game
of blowing kisses in a hurricane"

she's tryna get her mind right (and i applaud it)
as she washes away in the night life (midnight marauder)
the odor of este lauder while she fantasizes of the dress that i bought her
memories like highlights, in her hair
faded into the norm
blinded eyes played her to the storm
how could your beauty plague you within your form
the faintest of alarms rings the bells of your vegas charms
and not the ones that dangle on her wristbone
she is..conditioned to the ringtone
assigned to my 7 digits, and while she stares offfff
i can only hope that she smoothens out her ridges
i can see her reach for me as the burned bridges
wash ashore, from the troubled waters of allure
see we play the game.. but who is keeping the score?
and with that said.. i hope we both leave this in a ..draw

with all my rapper friends.. with all my gunclapper friends!!

verse 1
riddle me this..riddle me that
i think i hit an epiphany..
im perceived as the link in the middle (word?)
but its uncivil to belittle me
im a gentleman.. the concept is chivalry/
amidst the gimmicky finnicky talk fake chalk fake cries and bitter pleas/
tho ladies..
who love the "peachfuzz" begging for that "K.M. D"-ick
just coz i be nerdy dont mean my wave aint sea sick
balance my highs and lows.. becoz i gets that dough..
while yo ass gets the do' (door)

hello mr medina.. how are you doing today?

and making quarters and cents aint making sense.

sybian (freeverse)

you gotta shake yo pom pom to this yo..

take a look at me, take a tender glance/
modern day rem-brandt
im saying my "peace" like in rememberance.../
number one contender stance/
the one to bring "thunder" to yo "city" like "kev durant"/
the concept of homecourt advantage makes me wanna end the chants/
silence yo crowd/ lay ignoramuses in a shroud of their own filth/
i feel like im walking on heightened bone stilts/
im frightened of my OWN skills/
we keep it "100" (thats how we show em "Wilt")
danger slain..left in a "chamber layin/chamberlain"
FEAR NOT OF MAN but the father of the womb born in the manger's frame/
credit what i came to claim/
on a terrain where insane is sane/
i was always disdained as the stain upon this prophecy/
i guess everything is game within this odyssey/
an intellect on the level of the ivy league/
nd i grind till everybody is like " I BELIEVE!!! "

i know you playas hate us..sucks thats the way you feel tho..
and anyway.. we gonna GET IN THAT ASS/
so pardon me i must say..
i'm kind like a big deal....do (dildo)
cock-a-cock-ca-cock-cock-cock-
kinda like a big dilll-do

waka waka ^__^

explanations
'wilt chamberlain' is the only player in NBA history to score 100 points in a single game...

..self explanatory..

i be the cavalier in the camera glare/
rent covers a short lived stint on my amateur tier/
its in my "genes/jeans" since i salvaged a pair/
im roger federer up 40-love with an advantage spare/
so i stay loose wherever the road narrows/
"daps & pounds" coz its a ritual to show love to all the pharaohs/
or shower under a cloud of arrows/
i was an unknown that evolved into rafael nadal at roland garros/
angelic carols while i size down competition with the stare of double barrells/
innate in my bone gristle/ in my bone marrow/
sex pistol make the lion roar and for once its muy claro/
options like cards of the tarot/
duckin shards, it 'll be foolish to let down my guard/
word is bond. the devil roams in the idle mind /
so rival mines and be idolized as the false pagan in the sign of times/
yall false flaggin/pulse blastin/
but we in it together like a cult faction/
bulk fragments of shrapnel in each line of coke/
so hail mary when the great minds elope/
none is more "seren-a" coz "will.i.am" when "legends" are subpoenad to rep/
the loyalty in my fleet. direct/
so coy, fall in awe when they recall what medina collects/
with the grace of hakeem in my step/
my southern drawl im callin all fresh-men/
soph-o-mores/ pestilence has no residence in my orbit/
Pause.. is what the rebels without/
coz slight hesitance'll cost more than the face value of a million dead presidents/
the falcon's risen/ still my heart facilitates my mother's altruism/
so i do my best to shelter abandoned wisdom/
nd bomb the walls of intelligence with the vandalism of the baddest rhythm/
beauty and the beast, i guess opposites attract/
but purposely breaking all yo promises is wack/
a monstrous colossus of vomitus and crack/
me take a loss? how preposterous is that?/
i just speed through. and tell em im just being "Casual" " I Did'nt Mean To "/
they say kennard.. please act so civil...*grunt..
but i feel like king hippo amongst chicken little *grunt

paying homage to biggie's the wickedest freestyle over Casual - I Did'nt Mean To

the outro ballad prod focus

verse 1
-you were there...whenever i needed a lift... (coz i had no more gas ;'[] )
my ul-timate ..high .. together we would... drift ( we would be flying baby )
and then u blow just a simple kiss..
and tell me im yo favorite lyricist gurrrrl (even better than biggie and 2pac?!!)
and u say... kennard.. you rock. my. world

chorus
as our bodies link
baby do not blink coz i am on the brink
of showing you love..
get yo ass up on the sink..
let the feeling sink in... as we make it do what it does
as our bodies link
baby do not blink coz i am on the brink
of showing you love..
get yo ass up on the sink..
or dip it in the tub..
and all night long.. we rub a dub..... dub

verse 2
loosen yo bra..
take yo pants off..and un butt-on ( i love yo thong girl! )
and u say.. .that my shit is raw and uncut.. (yehhhh)
but dont listen to the haters coz they're wrong
our relationship is way tooo strong babe.. way too strong
but we're the center of the jealousy..
with our freak levels to the 10th degree..
and while im hitting it..
girl u be screaming like.. " TAP THAT ASS LIKE ITS YO MPC -eheeeee "

i cant breathe.. i need my inhaler.. waka waka!

01 Exp Points prod. Esta
i decided to take flight with my damaged wings/
but they claimed it to be awkward/
but fuck it, frame it for what it is and in the books of history is where i aim to be authored/
such a snotty nose shotty flow mosberg/
act 1 - is the precursor to the oscars/
then act 2 - my freeform takes posture/
act tough to conceal the pain? you'll never prosper/
its such a phenomenon/
living the tragedies that the opera sang/
and it could all be.. finished in one flash of the paparazzi/
but for me another option is gained/
so if they evver, got u restrained/
u gotta learn to break free from the tarnished chains/
evolve into the threat and the promise mane/
coz on the hand of what is dealt is where the honest reign/
nd they say

[chorus]
you gotta go hard any and everywhere you gonna go (go)
and i say..
yo tell me somethin i dont already know (know)
and they question
if i do it for the love or for the dough (dough)
nd i reply..i does it for the lulz

[verse 2]
i used to fall victim to the acts to which i was enticed/
19 going through crisis of midlife/
but with a fate reversed, im so persistent in assisting my reBIRTH like a midwife.
nd hope is facilitated to develop light/
even if im dealt with a hellen keller plight/
feeling the pressure to move my pivot/
taking the road less traveled within a civic/
i plan to handle my bismuth.. my "BI" in such a shady business/
so much that it feel grim/
and they handing out chains made from the rocks of plymouth/
but the chilled wind/ couldnt put out the flame built in/
coz even in defeat, there are ways that you can still win/
there are ways that you can still win
coz even in defeat there are ways that u can still win.. and they say

[repeat chorus 2x]
