My New Favorite Rapper

So a little while ago, I found this low quality video of some teenage girl rapping via a random Reddit link.  I think I clicked on it because whoever posted it insisted that the girl was a good rapper, and I just wanted to laugh at how wrong the they were.  Turns out I was wrong.  This girl is phenomenal.  The rhyming is on par with the best there ever was, and the lyrics are entirely unique.  I literally haven't heard a rap verse this good since Eminem in his prime.  If I were the head of a record label, the first thing I'd do is lock this girl down.  She's something special.  I've posted the lyrics that I can parse out below.  The first two stanzas have some highlighting just to show where all the rhymes are.  Again, it's pretty fucking impressive.

Lyrics:

You could be much creepier I’m pleased with your
Cheesy words and your feelings
Regarding my cheeks creasing

Even though I’m greasier than pizza
More tweezers, I mean, Jesus
My teeth they just need bleaching

I agrees with you
School’s a breeze so I’ll leaves with you
Birds and bees are a mystery
Teach me

With books thicker than Hemmingway
Descriptive and any way
Kids hate on us but I don’t care what the lemmings say

With their graffiti
And slam books, I’m needy
We can’t look to seedy
In front of my dad sweetie

I'm Mary Jane and you're Petey
In the street we invert you and you greet me with kisses iconic and sweetly

Forget
That you never met me
I bet that when you do you will regret
Wanting to be next to me

And you’re flexing in the trap
And now every time I hear your voice I have relapse

Greatest Song of All Time

The music business has its fair share of complexities, as you would expect from any business with such a long history, and that is, at its core, built upon international law (i.e. copyright). That complexity is almost always hidden from the listening public. However, one piece that is curiously exposed every year when the Grammys come around is the separation between what is a "record" and what is a "song". The second and third most prestigious awards at the Grammys are, respectively, "Song of the Year," and "Record of the Year." What's the difference? Most people, including most musicians, wouldn't be able to tell you. I couldn't either until I took a music industry course in college where someone finally explained it to me: A "song" is melody and lyrics. The best way I have to think if it is, if hear someone play a faithful-to-the-original, acoustic cover, the "song" is what would be the same between the orig...

Fallout

This is an old song that I finally finagled into sounding good. The track uses Neon Indian's Fallout and was inspired by Frank Ocean's Strawberry Swing .  As with that song, I stripped the song of its original vocals and used the title as a starting point to craft a story of my own.  Hope you like it. http://www.mediafire.com/?bqv9d7821m7nn7m (I tried posting to SoundCloud, but the fact that I pretty much used a copyrighted track in its entirety did not make them very happy.) Lyrics: [Verse 1] Falling, falling out of control Away we will go To make love, oh how sweet Warm night, city breeze Not so sweet nothings and furtive stares Not the answer to my prayers, but Stagger, stumble through the door Bet tomorrow that’ll make you sore [Chorus] And we’re falling in and falling out of control And we’re falling in and falling out of control [Verse 2] Turn on the night light, not too bright Just enough to set things right, it Won’t go over w...

My First Song

So this is the first song I've ever finished, but I've been sitting on it for a few months now.  I just can't figure out how to make the lyrics sound right.  They're just so stupid and saccharine, and they stay that way no matter what I do.  There's also that annoying buzzing in the back ground that's reminding me I need to get a better microphone.  I suppose at least it all sounds really pretty.  Maybe I'm just not meant to write pop songs.  If anyone reading this has any suggestions for improv ement, please let me know.  At the very least, I figure it'll be pretty entertaining. http://soundcloud.com/felix-lin/falling-apart Lyrics: [Verse 1] I can’t believe that old sweatshirt Looks good on you even now Though it seems you’re tearing down my world With what’s coming out of your mouth How could you, goddess, oh Venus Deem it right to strike me so You wouldn’t go for my bridle Guess I have to let you go [Chorus] You w...
