That's what I'm talkin' about
S A S, size ain't shit, never dat
Strong arm steady, Talib Kweli

Niggaz gettin' caught in the trap
For the cash it's the drugs basketball or the rap
There's more to us than that
We the shit consider the facts, after you analyze that
You know you best to fall back, woah

Niggaz gettin' caught in the trap
For the cash it's the drugs basketball or the rap
There's more to us than that
We the shit consider the facts, after you analyze that
You know you best to fall back, woah

Woah, I'm dealin' wit nuttin' but facts when I spit it though
You niggas superstitious, don't step on the cracks
Or split the poem, candle light, flickers so bright, I feel the wick
Can kick a sicka flow and spill it like a liquor store

I spit the shit to make a cripple get up and dance
I spit the shit to make the average MC piss in his pants
I spit the shit to make a mothafucka call it a night
I spit the shit to see fuck wit see Delores Tucker sex like

I take a sip from my creative well, in this game for a minute
I play this well to win it, ya go to Africa like Cave Chappelle, you finished
'Cause ya prehistoric raps is borin' the number of whack rappers
Soarin' like the percentages of teenagers who have abortions

These niggas meak, they lyrics weak and they beats is corporate
They try snitchin' on records their mouths is leakin' forces
Drippin' 'em over system than Chinese water torture
Rippin' a series of events more unfortunate than lemony snicket

Niggaz gettin' caught in the trap
For the cash it's the drugs basketball or the rap
There's more to us than that
We the shit consider the facts, after you analyze that
You know you best to fall back, woah

Niggaz gettin' caught in the trap
For the cash it's the drugs basketball or the rap
There's more to us than that
We the shit consider the facts, after you analyze that
You know you best to fall back, woah

Yea, med alliance mind bless the mic for the gods
Teach the blind plus get a piece of mine
Release ya minds for each design
Baby food for thought, rappas not [Incomprehensible] for sport
Due to this pork eatin' niggas of sort

Yo, you's a fuck face, burnt out loser that's always up late
Planet Ais the revolutionary slash nut case
A witchcraft black magic, data load up computers
A spread the message wrote to you where, when I show illusions

If all y'all niggas is killas then how ya write ya records?
How'd you find the time? Stop lyin', ya minds infected
There's only a few and I ain't sayin' niggas
Don't put it down from you town, I'm talkin' 'bout you

Yea, the fake dude promotin' propaganda
And open on some fanna and out right snitchin' on them cameras
Planet Ais, gold chain black bandannas low
Steady gain click clack, rang, rang, there they go

Niggaz gettin' caught in the trap
For the cash it's the drugs basketball or the rap
There's more to us than that
We the shit consider the facts, after you analyze that
You know you best to fall back, woah

Niggaz gettin' caught in the trap
For the cash it's the drugs basketball or the rap
There's more to us than that
We the shit consider the facts, after you analyze that
You know you best to fall back, woah

Yea, just a high skip and a jump away from gettin' everything
That I could possibly want and prostitutes front, get a 4 bar on the roster
Scratch that, I'm talkin' about a full roster of raps, monstas that rap
Buzzed out later check the cadence of the frequency

Uniquely, we strong arms strategically
Easily I twist the [Incomprehensible]
Killa Cali [Incomprehensible] back alleys burnin' backwoods in Danelis
Or he probably wit Kweli, out in BK, we make it easy for the Djs
Like instant replays, conversation by the buttons
I talk and touch sumpin'

Straight shots of the luey, he flew me out to London
Crunchin' numbas, flippin' more dough like Siccisero
Next thing you know, we kissin' ya hoe, wit out the mistletoe
Strong arm steady, agony can sickly, Phil da rigglies
The big league niggas is droppin' indies let's go

Niggaz gettin' caught in the trap
For the cash it's the drugs basketball or the rap
There's more to us than that
We the shit consider the facts, after you analyze that
You know you best to fall back, woah

Niggaz gettin' caught in the trap
For the cash it's the drugs basketball or the rap
There's more to us than that
We the shit consider the facts, after you analyze that
You know you best to fall back, woah

Talib Kweli, right about now
This what I'm feelin' right about now
And I invite you all to check it out wit me
Let's go, it's like

Niggas gettin' caught in the trap
For the cash it's the drugs basketball or the rap
There's more to us than that
We da shit consider the facts, after you analyze that
You know, you best to fall back, woah

Niggas gettin' caught in the trap
For the cash it's the drugs basketball or the rap
There's more to us than that
We da shit consider the facts, after you analyze that
You know, you best to fall back, woah

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version. Great version of a great song,

Page
Ed Sheeran
There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.

Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it. “I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
