I can’t stand the radio. “Hot 97.5 in the mix with today’s
top tracks!” Really, Hot 97.5? Are they really today’s hottest tracks? Because,
to me, they all sound the same played out pop music formula that’s been cut up
and recycled so many times that its almost like no one cares what the final
product is anymore. Oh cool, another lazy chorus sandwiched between some
predictable pop beats, exactly what I was looking for. I won’t even touch on
the disaster that is country music, I’ve shown enough of my self-perceived music elitism
already.

Final Hour by Lauryn Hill:
I treat this like my thesis. Well-written topic, broken down into pieces. I introduce then produce, words so profuse. It's abuse how I juice up this beat, like I'm deuce. Two people both equal like I'm Gemini, rather Simeon. If I Jimmy on this lock I could pop it, you can't stop it.

Why so sad, walkin’ around with them blue faces? She said I’m down on my luck and it’s something I gotta have, blue faces. I hit the bank today and told ‘em color me bad, blue faces. Yea that new money, and it’s breakin me down honey.
