about

"Skyline Jazz" is arguably my most soulful song to date.

Vibrant trumpet notes and a beautiful soul sample work together in harmony creating the perfect soundscape for ill rhymes.

From the beat to the bars, the unforgettable feeling and nostalgia of 90's hip hop is brought to life in contemporary fashion.

lyrics

I’m receiving blessings
Being tested blow stacks reinvested
My size, won’t measure up to what I should be
I could be the metric, possibly domestic logically elected

To forego love my boys go club
Put in sweat equity and pour mo’ blood
Resurrect biggie, with four fours the door won’t budge
Celebrate myself they won’t award no dubs

My stats more than competitive
Unpack my skeletons
Don’t relish in the fact I love rap more than my relatives
I feel bad for that
Hang loose they mad attached
I don’t chatter shake hands kiss babies and scatter back

Told the opthalmologist
See me and mine, in deluxe Cadillacs
Said that’s cataract
Ask and the answers I’d risk it again
Resist persist past limits of typical men

A true student I’m a kid in the space
Years later find Kwaj when you dig in the crates
Craig Mack, deliver the taste
Love motivates no figure replace

A true student I’m a kid in the space
Years later find Kwaj when you dig in the crates
Craig Mack, deliver the taste
Love motivates no figure replace

I’m Iceberg Slim in the flesh it’s game over
Continuing would serve to belittle your rep
I make the riddler guess don’t dribble the best
A little finesse, make yo periimeter stretch

Meet a man it take a minute or less
Administer tests, see if he mimic respect
Assume reciprocation if he on a similar quest
Where’s the benefit assisting someone mission while pissing the best

Years left blessings never die find where your grace stay
Live life with intention no mistakes made
Y’all take applause from anybody, I rate praise
Opinions of greats weigh more than cats who fake plays

Y’all click bait like a newsweek leak
I’m bout 20 years in y’all two week streak
I did it before I pen it, my looseleaf speak
Remove the ego each champ the crew repeat

A true student I’m a kid in the space
Years later find Kwaj when you dig in the crates
Craig Mack, deliver the taste
Love motivates no figure replace

A true student I’m a kid in the space
Years later find Kwaj when you dig in the crates
Craig Mack, deliver the taste
Love motivates no figure replace
