Great stuff once again. Bouncy head bobbing beats along with excellent beat ridding. He starts each verse with a band and catches your attention. Some good lines as well. They aren't just the common 4 filler lines for every clever line. The lines have connection. You can tell they are well thought out tracks.

Re: Hip-Hop the thread: Rapper to tennis player comparisons post #245
ok here's a song I worked on. These lyrics are entirely my own. I borrowed a youtube beat. I don't have recording equipment, so just use your imagination as far as the delivery.
here's the beat:
(quote, said not rapped)
The world began without man, and it will end without him.
hook (begins at 0:11)
Where there’s an end there’s always a beginning and I wonder if the earth
is thinning(dimming on verse 2 and grinning on 3) as its spinning
WHO, was the first man to circumnavigate the globe in his solitary naval
probe
WHO, was the first man to gaze toward mars and notice each and every star
WHO, was the first man to sing to the mountain and sing to the sea a song
of jubilee
WHO, was the first man to see the great Silverback gorilla and yet
appreciate the soft chinchilla
WHO, was the first man to dissect, disentangle and master the geometric
angles
WHO, was the first to walk the Sahara and not be afraid of the sun’s
powerful aura
hook
WHO, was the first to fight against the poisonous hiss of racial prejudice
WHO, was the first of the kings to practice great benevolence in great
prevalence
WHO, was the first to murder his own father, mother and his own blood brother
WHO, was the first to see himself not in grandeur but staring back from
the eyes of the poor
WHO, was the first woman to reject the social order of the sexual disconnect
WHO, was the first to speak of things unseen and aspire to break through
that screen
hook
The future age of man is akin to the first amphibian
that sprouted legs and walked against the leviathans, not born to swim in the Caribbean
but wired as a contrarian even before the sham of creating life in the galaxy’s alluvial fan.
It was, inane in the membrane. Lucid and sane. Yet history said it
was incredibly insane.
Currently ideas are blooming as the population’s booming so is the final hour
looming? Or are we finally zomming
Now swim the Bay of Bengal, climb up to Kilimanjaro, raft the Amazon
before the break of dawn, caballero.
Balancing on Krakatowa, swaying to the rise to power. Fault lines crack
the ivory tower, understand the magic hour, its man’s
triumphant meteor’ shower.
hook
(end with chinese proverb quote, preferably the voice of a wise sounding Chinese man)
The miracle is not to fly in the air, or to walk on the water,
but to walk on the earth.
The first two verses are a tab too slow. I may retool them to be more like the 3rd verse, which I am very happy with.

No I haven't. I don;t have any of that equipment. I have a friend in my club tennis team who has the stuff, but I don't often see him these days. Maybe I should hit him up to see if I can use that stuff.
I am always writing lyrics and thinking of rhymes. I like using a lot of references, whether they be to othe rrap songs, to history, to sports or anything.

Did Nas's new album ever come out? I don't think it did. What's with these albums just not coming out these days?
I have been listening to some of Common's new album recently. It's pretty good
