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:

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.

My Little Brother Can Drive
He may not have a driver's license, but Sekou knows how to drive a car at the tender age of 15 months. He never fails to please. He was able to run errands all day, but he mostly did the grocery shopping. Don't believe me? See for yourself:

The Songs I've Had Stuck in my Head for Days 2
Aww yeah!!! Now I know what you're thinking (or at least I'm sure you've thought it just a little bit): didn't you just do this a while ago? Yes, I did. This is basically a sequel. I just wanted to share with you some more music that I have in my head. Those other ones I still appreciate, but since then, I have discovered some more songs and they are awesome. I'm excited to share so... here we go:

How to Change the World Around You
The world is a huge, enormous place. I say this because there's the world that you know, and then a world that I know, and a world that some stranger standing next to you may know. I'm not referring to the world as a setting; I mean the world that is your reality. Some of it may be the same to everyone - such as the seven continents, emotions, existing probably- but there are things in which makes their world seem much different from everyone else's. This could be religion, a disorder of some sort, or simply the music that a person listens to.

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:

Spring time!!!!!!!
It's finally spring time, and I am super excited. After having to endure numbing cold weather, looking out the window to see trees that look like the roots decided to flip over, and looking down at crunchy ashy leaves, it's great to know that winter is officially over (according to the Gregorian calendar, of course).
