Sunshine

We don't have the best of weather in Holland and England so a change of scenery can be a real eye opener.


I always knew I didn't want to stay in Holland for the rest of my life but this holiday really underlines that.

It's warm, there's a cool sea breeze and the whole atmosphere of the place and the people is more relaxed. This obviously has to do with the fact that it's a holiday area but I believe that the climate plays a strong part in that to.



I'm not saying I want to live in Tenerife, I'm just saying that weather plays a huge role in the way that we feel. So, here's to the sun!

Off we go

Not a lot of blogging lately, been busy with a lotta stuff. Moving, working and enjoying the sun obviously. In about 24 hours I'll be in Tenerife for my first real holiday since '06-'07 and I can't wait. The past couple of years have been filled with sporting obligations and family business which made it hard to find time to hop in a jet and fly off to somewhere warm.

Photos will be made and memories will be shared, but it's really gonna be is relaxing. Adding to that, a lot of fitness work will be done in preparation for the new season. Additionally, more music will be made during the remainder of the Summer holiday. DJ Java has invested in a new recording set up, so you'll be hearing from us soon.

Enjoy the sun, live like there's no tomorrow,

Umbrella

Can someone tell me what's wrong with this Rihanna chick?

I swear that she used to be Lady Gaga Cigarette Glasses smoking, but these days, she's beach-whale washed up.

Look at here, I mean, can't anybody tell her when trying to be different goes wrong?

Rockstar my ass. Get your S.O.S. If it's loving that you want Pon de Replay on.

Maybe Chris Brown's to blame? And although his career is going down the drain, at least he's still making dope music..



No Bullshit

Been trying to find something comparable to the original, but without luck until now. I did buy a couple but they look nothing like the 'real thing'. Gotta get right for the summer..

Monster

I know it's 2010, but I still have a strong desire to go and get me these as soon as I can afford them (never). Sound should be crazy and who else to master your sound than the good Doctor. Gotta get the white ones though, fresher than colgate.. So if you see me with these on, I either won the lottery or I found them.

Anyway, can't wait for the album to drop.

DRIZZY!

New track : Un-thinkable.. with JayD

Lyrics

Verse 1:

My thoughts deep, different, upper level

I'm all alone in this world, ride my own pedal

I don't step like you step, not even close to it

I appose anything, anything like the most do it

Vincent van Gogh flow it's like a ghost drew it 

Get you higher, it's got a different kind of smoke to it

And you can coast to it, barbecue and roast to it

Follow me I'll show you (e)x, like it's post cupid

But I mean ecstasy, we can take that trip today

No pills, that have you shaking, hyperventilate

I'm talking bond, not james, but soulmate

We'll never get old, keep it fresh, Colgate

We'll never get dusty, keep it clean, Dyson

You'll never get bored, 5th gear excitement

They can't break me or form me, no cast

Living life for today, fuck tomorrow and the past

Chorus:

I just want to be the greatest

and I swear to never fake it 

Could we reach the unthinkable?

Do you think we could make it?

Can't you tell that I'm ready?

Can't you tell that I'm ready?

JayD's Verse (Lyrics comin')

Verse 2:

Communication's internal, no mass

I'm feeling higher than I've ever been, no grass

It's the touch on the keys, the beats sick

I'm probably someone that impossible to be with

So music's the only one that I can be with

I'm too honest, I'm unpleasant to speak with

People expect the truth, but really want a lie

So when they ask you something, stare in your eye

They want you to lie, convincingly,

But that don't work for me, there's no convincing me

If you feel a certain way, speak on it or go blind

What's the good in seeing, if you don't mind?

No bother, I mean expressing your true thoughts

I need freedom like Pepper needs new shorts

I feel like I'm something else, Pinokkio

Since when have we all been so parochial?

Chorus

Let me know what you think..

Night-Drive

Trying to catch the vibe of the song

But somehow, I feel like I got it all wrong

Not only the track but my life in fact

Is a classic intact but with ever-growing cracks

I don't know where to go so I spazz on life

I'm in love with the dark so I stay from light

I'm in love with the night, so my days aren't bright

I just ride through my city like I own the rights

Like I own the streets, like I own the roads

No consistent line and not a place to go..

Now my vision is a mission to find my place

And my soul is the shadow that I must embrace

I hover in-between uncertainty and peace

Life has been served it's time for me to feast

You Can't Sit Down..

Studyin' at school, listening to Joe Budden's new freestyle over Alicia Keys' Un-thinkable beat, he says "Since Tyrese got on the bus singing". That reminded me of this..

Jodeci - Get on up [Classic baby!]:



Here's the freestyle [Dopeness, Pure]:



And here's Tyrese on the bus singing [Classic]:

Part I

On my way to the first exam of this block this morning I was standing in the bus, playing my new track "Wish", feeling unique..

I don't really know why, but it was as if I was in one of those movies where the main character's perception changes all of a sudden.

I looked around me and I saw all these people as if they were faceless. They were all the same; same expressions, same shallow look in their eyes and the same unsatisfied curves formed by their lips.

There I stood, amongst this group of followers, a proud but confused individual..

This experience reminded me of a line in that new track:
"It's like my camouflage is missing // I can't fit in, but why try, when you're different?"

Anyway, the test was hard but I think I might have scrapes a sufficient grade.

I guess it's "on to the next on"

PS: Now playing "Wish" V.J.

Old school V

Who knew that this cute little chubby boy would grow up and take the world by storm?

Well, not quite by storm, not even the world really, but hey, who is going to believe in me if I don't believe in myself..

So here's to good old times when the sun was shining and the 6-pack requirments were not as strict. Also, I see that my sweet sister is sporting the 6 inch thick goggles that are slowly starting to be fashionable again.

Anyway, check back soon for new fresh hot tracks, lyrics, poetry and other nonsence.

Off that..

Strike light, watch smoke become none

Look into the fire, see the match become one

We are like a match, catch flame become one

Love is in the air like smoke from the sun

Rays beam, like charles, i've gone blind

I look for the path but can't see the signs

Step the way I feel not the way they say I should

Saying that I could, doesn't mean that I would

Freedom must be earned..

I'm free..

Blame it on the Grey Goose..

I had to hand in a bit of my pride and it wasn't really what I had in mind but somehow it set me free.. at last.. after all this time.
I feel so liberated, so myself.. so fuck the world, ready for global domination lol..
You'll know what I'm talking about soon enough cause the Macbook Pro 13' is arriving next week, so new music will probably arrive a week later.. Got so much to write about..

SWAVY BABY

nicetea AAHHHH

Peace

Open-minded?

As I remain shocked at the abundance of ignorance, I remain equally shocked by it's influence.

Another thing that shocks me is how different human taste can be, it's truly amazing.
Some say it's for the better but sometime it's for the worse; try going out with a limited
musical taste.. If you don't like what's being played on the radio you're basically fucked cause dancing on music that (you think) sucks really is exhausting and it really isn't any fun (unless you're drunk outta your brains). Does anybody know a party where DJ's play shit like Dwele, Maxwell, (8701) Usher, Robin Thicke etc..
You get my point right? Anyone got an address, let me know..
Otherwise I guess it's time for a HOUSEPARTY!

Tracksided..

Just the first couple of bars from a new joint on the 'Sidetracked' beat from Joe Budden.

As I sit, twist thoughts with a mad man's mind

I wonder, is it me or has the world gone blind?

Sitting on my own, I sigh, and shut the blinds

Cause the bright light shining in is cutting through my eyes

You might not see the hypocrit in me

But see, we always turn away from what we don't want to see

It hurts, deep down, can't lie about the truth

But the truth about a lie is somewhere hidden in the root

We all do it, don't be stupid

Denying you ever lied is lying and that's foolish

The fact we've all done it, still doesn't rectify

If everyone jumped off a bridge, would you try?

The guilt, can eat you from the inside

But confessing what you did still doesn't make it right

I said the guilt, can eat you from the inside

But confessing what you did still doesn't make it right

They say, that it's the right thing to do

But how do they know? The're not standing in your shoes

And do they, have everything on the line to lose

And do they, have the right to influence what you choose

Who are they to tell another human being how to live

Without feeling what you feel, nothing's so real

Couple of weeks I might up the track..
