The Most Awesomest Top 15 Albums of '15

I have recently discovered that I have a fiery passion for music. It could be because I like dancing to anything that has the slightest rhythm. Or because I have found new artists to enjoy. But the thing is that they aren't new. I just so happen to find them in moments where I really needed to hear their sound. Regardless, I think that they are phenomenal to the point where I need to share them with you so you can understand why they deserve your love too. (These are in no particular order)

Mind Blowing Music (2): Awesomeness

I have found some great music since my last playlist. And I mean music that shined a new light on how life can be seen. For starters, I had a chain reaction of musical unveiling that lead me to the Chilłwave Radio on Pandora. As of today, that is the estate on I listen to every morning to get ready for the day. It sounds like indie rock and trap music had a beautiful baby. It's great to skateboard to as well.

A few of these songs will be from that station, but a lot of it is from songs I've overheard and just had to look up or download so that I can listen to its greatness again.

Subgenre PBR&B: Music For Hip Romantics

So there's this new label for music (new to me) that caught my attention called PBR&B. It's a genre in music that is heavily coated with copious amounts of smooth Peanut Butter.

Not really. It really stands for Pabst Blue Ribbon... Rhythm And Blues. The name comes from the stereotypical favoring of Pabst Blue Ribbon beer from hipsters. This derivative of R&B is also known as alternative or hipster R&B. Could be derogatory. Most think so. It's a little clever, but not clever enough.

Mind Blowing Music (1): With My Eyes Closed

Hey people. So this is where I share the latest songs (by exposure to my life and not necessarily by release date) I think are worth listening to. This is kind of like my first series of playlists, "Songs I've had suck in my head for days," but I wanted to change the title because this makes the songs seem a lot more intriguing, and less like... gum inflicted in your sutures or something. But ultimately, it's the same concept. Sing along if you know the words. ^_^

I'll Never Be Sober

On January 10th, one of the most artistic music videos (ever seen... by my heart) was released on Youtube. Click here for the video.

Music I've Had Stuck in My Head for Days 4

Lately, I've been ripping CDs that I held from my local library (I found it amazing that the library has desirable music, but that would be judgemental of me). HEre are some of my favorites from my library adventures so far:

Gorillaz - Rhinestone Eyes

The Radio Rap Experiment

It’s been awhile since I made a blog post (as some of you may have noticed), but a lot has changed since the times I used to post on a regular basis and now. The way I am doing this isn’t orthodox, but it gets the job done and I haven’t gotten in trouble for it. (That should say enough within itself.)

Cancel

Sorry it took so long, but I finally finished this song. I've been working on it for about one or two months now, and I'm happy to say that I finished it last Sunday. Here ya go. :-)
(If you here some birds chirping or something like that, I was outside recording this)


Instumental produced by Spence Mills

My Second Song: Departure

The reason I'm calling this my second song is because this is my second song, but I something was going wrong. When I was putting the song together, the speed of the instrumental and the rap were different. I didn't know what to do, so I just suspended its production until further notice. Then it happened to my fourth song, and I felt like I was in deep trouble. Then I realized that with my audio software, all I had to do was change the speed of the song. It seemed so obvious, but I'm so glad that I figured it out.

So this is my second song. I based it on Philadelphia (Pennsylvania) and New Jersey, where I primarily was raised. It's not that long, but the only thing is Lauryn Hill's part adds to the length (and makes it awesome). I have absolutely no problem with that. It's one of my favorite songs by The Fugees, and it was the best instrumental I could find. So after weeks of suspension, this is Departure:

Check the Rhime (In Tyme)

Here's my next rap song. This time, I went for a more complex beat that required for myself to say a lot more. After enough practice, I was able to make a rap along the beat of one of my favorite A Tribe Called Quest raps: Check the Rhime. Here's the rap with lyrics:

I Want To Be a Rapper

I might just be going through a phase, but for the most part, I have a strong urge to be a rapper. I at least want to give it a shot. I'm not trying to become the latest hip hop artist or anything, but I just want to try it to at least say that I did it. It seems like a lot of fun too.

The Harlem Shake?!?!

I had a particular post planned for today, but I came across an urgent matter that required my attention.

The Songs I've Had Stuck in my Head for Days

For the past few months, I've realized that some of the strangest songs can get stuck in my head not only all day, but possibly all week. It is the most annoying thing I can ever experience. It's okay if I actually like the song, but if I don't like it and I catch myself singing or rapping it, it's the worst. Even the songs that I actually like becomes something similar to a agonizingly horrible alarm clock that goes off every five minutes. Nothing that I would wish on anyone.

Music and Me


Music is certainly very tricky topic with me. Mostly because I can't really say that I have a certain genre that I appreciate the most. One thing I can say for sure: If music defines the person, than I am a very outgoing, or colorful individual. Meaning that I am open to listen to anything, and there I am only limited to certain types of music (which I will explain soon).
