Tardus Subscripto

Kanye West. Changed my life. For the better.

Listening to Late Registration. Two full cups of Grey Goose. Thoughts flowing.

I can't put a proper sentence together. The same way I can't get my life on track.

But back to the topic at hand. Kanye West. Read what he wrote on his blog recently about creativity, and this guy is on some next level shit. Late Registration was a classic. Graduation was above-par solid album. 808's was groundbreaking, but nothing like Late Registration. Musically, it was beyond ahead of it's time. I'm glad this is who I will be telling my children (if we get to live that long) about. No groupie though. Just giving respects where it's due.

Supposedly, I hear that Madlib is gon' be a producer on the next album which is HUGE. As well as Dj Premier. WHOA.


But disregarding that, I just had the urge to blog about what was going through my mind as I'm analyzing this album. *Diamonds From Sierra Leone starts*

Long Over Due

Burrrr

Jake Davis. Inspiration. No groupie, though.

Fear

I've been doubting Drake ever since he's become more successful. Only because I failed to realize his versatility. He's one of the few rappers who can go for commercial sound and then come back and give it to the real heads. With that said, here goes possibly one of my favourite Drake songs that he's ever released. Fear.

Man To Man

This is the man. From the way he acts to the way he dresses. Emile Hirsch.

Homage

Barrington Levy

His voice is so influential, unique, that it's a must for me to pay homage to this Reggae legend. Overlooked amongst other legends, in my opinion. You always hear names like Peter Tosh, Bob Marley, but rarely someone mentions Barrington Levy. Unless I'm in the conversations.



Enjoy.

Homage

This is where I pay homage to those who influence me everyday, whether it be another blog, a song, a musician, a fellow friend, a celebrity, a picture, a movie etc. Hopefully you get the point.

As of right now, I'm paying homage to my one of my favorite sites on the worldwide web.

Respect due, respect paid.
