what up word,
seems like every time i tell someone that i write poetry they, think "yeah right, everybody wants to be a rapper what makes you so different." well, i honestly can't answer that, and whether that makes me less of and emcee is up to you guys but this is just a sample of what is to come assuming that i can get a studio fund together *lol lay-a-away lol* but anyway here's an older poem that i wrote listening to some Lu and thinking about the state of music in general no particular genre just music hope you enjoy, please comment too! kinda long i know, but its entitled the MIC.
The MIC
The first time i held the MIC was a breakthrough
Salvia-less flow still i manged to breakthrough
blessing rhymes with there blessings and currency
Sonic is a free product of life's downloads and others are disorderly
going thru the motions roller coaster derailed progression
throwing up gang signs boy scouts learn a lesson
almost a fast break kit kat rappers acting out at night
maybe from lack of self respect or love, giving others insight
my first time holding the MIC was a dream
everything in my mind makes sweat shop rappers a glimpse into what it really seams
Martin Luther can only say so much needing the intervention
P.S. the bio's on T.V. will never tell us what were missing
but i don't have the scratch to catch the bus
honestly i'd rather walk then succumb to a label makers trust
Its something that i'd never ever do again i think backwards
Krissing and Crossing others lives as I dart thru traffic
Dallas right now is my home missing the midwest
The first I held the MIC she said i do it the best
even though were from to different worlds
she stil knows how to mix and master and hears the underling tones in my words
disrespecting my self for the pursuit of franklin's
the reason some people live and push coke on each station
radio w/o the fuzzy logic
mathematically speaking myself Asher and Sonic are all profits
only soliving the problems of the world thru musical equations
staying on the outside looking in and keeping college style illumenations
enlighted ourselves and others thru the beauty and hatred of transportation
others in the fast lane searching for the H.O.V no time for drugged out conotation
The first time i held the MIC is was a perfect match
Venus women and Chocolate dutch niggas, in my sleep i cook up a better batch
the only thing that stays in same is my love of music
people tap into there pure imagination thru the green house effect, but when they hear me they lose it
he's not Em, niether i'm I, but i'm black and were full of De LA Soul
The first time i held the MIC people lost control
New school, new class MC's need to take notes
feeling the body of a woman lyrically w/o degreating quotes
Positivity is the only thing i cant rhyme it seems i cant make cents about makin sense in a rhyme?
all questions no answers
you look funny holding a MIC, people following others leads like Mr.chancler
well, i could be like you except i have the need to provide for my life
The first and last time I held the MIC will be the same thing twice.

GREATEST PHONE CALL EVER!!!!!
WHAT UP WORLD?,
Okay, i cant really explain the rush i'm feeling right now, like i feel like that kid that got the sexist,thickest, most limber chick on the cheerleading squad to have his children, THATS HOW MUCH THAT CONVO INSPIRED ME!!!!!! I WISH I COULD EXPLAIN IT BETTER BUT I WILL OFFER THIS AS A STARTER AHHHHH!!!, THAT CONVO WAS THE SINGLE MOST NERVOUS CONVO I'VE EVER BEEN IN! BUT IT WAS A DOPE NERVOUS! LIKE A CAN SEE MYSELF AND CHARLES LIKE CHILLIN AND TALKIN ABOUT INCUBUS AND MAKE BEATS, MAN I CAN'T BELIEVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! CHARLES JUST MOVED INTO MY TOP 3, YEAH I SAID IT TOP 3!!!!
ITS MORE THEN JUST GETTIN ON STAGE AND SPITTIN REMEMBERED SONGS TO A BEAT, I LOVE THE WAY ALL THESE NEW ARTIST THAT ARE COMIN ALONG MAKE ROOM FOR THE CUSTOMER, OR IN CHARLES' CASE *STARCHASER* THAT PHONE CALL SINGLE HANDLY BOOSTED MY CONFIDENCE 100 MILLION PERCENT THANKS CHARLES!!!!!! I REALLY REALLY REALLY NEEDED IT!!! TO SEE SOMEONE COME FROM WAAY WORSE SURROUNDSING THEN MYSELF AND STILL MAKE A CONTRIBUTION TO HIP HOO MUSIC AND LIFE IN GENERAL IS AMAZING! MOST RAPPERS MIGHT SAY THAT THEY REALLY GET INTUNE WITH THERE FANS BUT THEY REALLY DONT MAKE AN ATEMPT TO AND ITS SAD.
I REMEMBER WHEN I FIRST HEARD OF CHARLES HAMILTON, I STUMBLED UPON HIM ON HIM IN A CVS, I WAS IN THERE TO GET A DRINK AND I SAW THE FRESHMAN XXL COVER AND THE FIRST PERSON THAT I NOTICED WAS W.A.L.E. MAINLY B/C OF THAT ROOTS TRACK, BUT ANYWAY, I YOUTUBE'D EACH OF THE MC'S ON THE COVER AND C.H WAS FIRST, THE FIRST TRACK I HEARD WAS "NOVEMBER 10TH" WHICH WAS A SAMPLE FROM CHARLIE AND THE CHOCOLATE FACTORY WHICH WAS DOPE!!!!!!!!! AFER THAT I BECAME A INSTANT FAN, BUT I REALLY ENJOY THE MESSAGE THAT HE BRINGS IS R E A L M U S I C, THE ONLY PERSON THAT WA BRINGING REALY MUSIC BEFORE C.H WAS LU, AND KANYE, BUT I LIKE THE ROCK INFLUENCE, B/C JUST LIKE HIM I BELIEVE THAT THE ROCK GENRE BRINGS A "REALNESS AND EMOTION" WHETHER YOU WANT IT OR NOT. NOT A LOT OF PEOPLE SEEM TO UNDERSTAND THAT MUSICIAN'S HAVE A BIG HILL TO CLIMB AS FAR AS THE MUSIC INDUSTRY GOES *GO FIGURE, RIGHT?, LOL* BUT ITS HARDER FOR A MUSICIAN TO EXPRESS HIMSELF/HERSELF AND DO WHAT HE/SHE ARE KNOWN FOR DOING B/C THE LABELS WNT COOKIE CUTTER KINKO'S COPIED RAPPER, NOT MC'S R A P P E R S. THE MOST INFLUENIAL LINE I'VE EVER HEARD FROM ANY MC SINCE LU: " I'M BLESSED TO BE IN A POSITION TO EXPOSE THE TRUTH, IF THEY KILL ME FOR IT, LET ME DIE ALONE IN THE BOOTH."- JEEZY HAMILTON.
IF I HAD TO DESCRIBLE CHARLES HAMILTON'S RAPPING IT WOULD BE KNOWN AS
"ABSOLUTE TRUTH-
"Absolute truth" is defined as inflexible reality: fixed, invariable, unalterable facts. For example, it is a fixed, invariable, unalterable fact that there are absolutely no square circles and there are absolutely no round squares.
B/C NOTHING IS MORE REAL THEN LIFE, ESPEICALLY WHEN YOU'VE LIVED THRU CERTAIN THINGS THAT SOME PEOPLE ONLY DREAM ABOUT, WHICH IS STUPID TO ME, I NEVER UNDERSTOOD WHY PEOPLE HEAR CERTAIN THINGS THAT ARE LESS THEN POSITIVE, THEY ATEMPT TO RECREATE IT AND GLORIFY IT, I UNDERSTAND CERTAIN CIRCUMSTANCES THAT CASE MIGHT BE VALID BUT MORE OFTEN THEN NOT THATS NOT THE CASE. I THINK THAT.......WAIT I KNOW THAT I'M JUST ONE OF THE MANY CHARLES STANS THAT ARE OUT THERE BUT WHAT MAKES ME DIFFERENT IS THAT I KNOW HOW TO TAKE CRITICISM AND LEARN FROM IT, FOR INSTANCE WHEN SONIC TOLD ME THAT HE UNDERSTOOD MY FOCUS BUT I NEEDED TO BALANCE THE INDUSTRY AND MY REAL LIFE, IT CLICKED THAT THE ONLY PERSON THAT CAN STOP ME FROM SUCCEEDING IN THE INDUSTRY IS MYSELF....AND FOR THAT I APOLOGIZE TO ANY PERSON THAT I LIED TO BY STATING THAT I WASN'T SMART OR HANDSOME OR ANY OF THE ABOVE THE REASON FOR THE APOLOGY IS B/C I NOW UNDERSTAND THAT IT TAKES SOME THAT HATES THEMSELVES TO SHOOT DOWN EVERY SINGLE POSITIVE STATEMENT EVER MADE, I GUESS ITS FROM MY SURROUNDINGS, BUT I CAN'T SOLELY BLAME IT ON THAT, ITS ALSO MY UNDIEING ABILITY NOT TO GIVE UP, I GUESS THATS WHAT THE MAIN FOCUS OF MY LIFE IS ABOUT NOT GIVING UP OR GIVING IN.
THIS SONG IS FOR MY FUTURE WIFE THE WONDERFULLY BEAUTIFUL NIKKI JEAN...
MY ENTIRE LIFE I'VE ONLY CONVERSED MUSICALLY, EVERY SINGLE CONVO I'VE EVER HAD HAS ENDED AND BEGUN WITH MUSIC, NO MATTER THE TYPE JUST MUSIC AND CHARLES IS ONE OF THOSE OF DUDES JUST FROM TALKIN TO HIM FOR THE 10 MINS THAT I DID THAT LETS ME KNOW THAT HE'S VERY SMART ON THE BUSINESS FRONT AS WELL AS THE MUSIC FRONT. I KNO THIS MIGHT LOOK LIKE A LONG OBESSION WITH CHARLES BLOG ENTRY *WHICH IT IS* LOL, BUT I JUST WANT HIM AS WELL AS EVERYONE ESLE IN THE XXL FRESHMAN CATERGORY THAT WITHOUT YOU GUYS THERE WOULD BE NO ME, SO THANK YOU!!!!
P.S.
