Music's Artists-A Pancakez collab.

Bob Marley.
By Bounce

I ride the tranquil waves of enlightenment, slave to no man
My guide, the most high, King of Kings and ruler of all lands
I’ve joined hands with warring politicians an exhibition
One love above all, a condition of the heart’s ambition
Ammunition fired through the hired musicians’ jaw
Raw vocals ignite, catch a fire under a system of flaws
Ambushed in the night, death calls due to the truths I recite

Fight with the might of JAH to unite a people thru plight
Incite a movement with a groove meant to soothe men
Proven delusions abuse men, when War’s the only solution
Elocution on wax an old trench town compilation of facts
A hidden tax not only paid by blacks, but all who fall into
.................................................. ...........................societal cracks
Digital attacks..................................................... .................................
Waged & engaged with the rage I’ve displayed on many a stage
Caged in the heart of man is the message my music’s engraved
Enslaved no longer my spirit soars with the heights of the lifted
Twisted, these blood shot eye’s signify more than just spliffted
Gifted are the fruit of my loins as they join this battle, I’m living
Giving breath to the fire I started, not even death.........................
......................................could quiet the riot of the dearly departed

"Emancipate yourself from mental slavery,.................................
............................................none but ourselves can free our mind..."

-Robert Nesta Marley
Born: February 6, 1945 - Died: May 11, 1981



Slug
by Twixn...
with rash action ill stumble through searching for passion
hacking at road blocks put forth by society's false faction
a soul search in an attempt to bury the coal
that hold's my feet and stops my steady roll
yet ill retake control and silently pronoucnce corperate demise
kick back and watch pleasantly as our freedom and fate rise
Answering the forsaken children's cries as they sit there
trying to rebuild a castle from there parents ashes with care
It's not fair that the new generation must live in our web of lies
so please step and try to untangle the incompetent ties
and ill hold onto this mic and produce forth words
and keep on portraying my message weather or not you heard
focus the blurred image of life and reaveal what ive learned
till all have turned to face reality and what weve earned
i will not sit and wait, until i wind the path of fate
steer it back into the right derection and end the hate

Tego Calderon
By Sharp.

Yo creo que la musica es lo mas importante en el mundo
Rakim handed me a mic to rhyme, he never knew though,
I'd be the most lyrical reggeaton artista, enemigos llorran
Cuando tiro rhymes, todos asustados, de Calderon van.
Latino from Puerto Rico, came out the womb rappin' chico.
Slow, and low emcee flow, not average, can't hit a C-note.
Rose from the gritty streets of the Puerto Rican ghettos.
Y se que soy feo, un ugly ma'fucka', con pelos negros.
My music is obsolete if it can't make you move and think.
As you're reading this, the vibrations groove through the ink.
Self hate laced lyrics fused with latin drums and beats.
A heavy bass to make sure you car thumps on streets.
Musician at heart, inspired by those that live through the art.
Now I spit on the sharks,
that said I wouldn't ammount to shit from the start.

uppin this...

Where is the Kurt Cobain verse?

Edicus was going to do it, but I guess he decided not to, even after he insisted on it... I thought sharp was going to do it originally... Tells you how much I know...

Nice shit guys, This was a long peace but it was worth the read. Everyone came proper. I like how everyone was each a diff artists. Good collab. Keep dropping.

uppers... downers... the works... god dammit.

uppin.

dammit people...

Lazy bastids in this forum. Interesting project you guys have come up with. More people should try things like this.

Bounce for some reason I read your verse in like, a Jamaican voice. It's a good thing, it means you got inside the mind of your artist to some extent. The quote at the end probably helped too. Was that from 'Redemption Song'? Anyways, dopeness from you always. Bob Marley was the fucking man.

Twixn your verse was pretty cool. You didn't get the full picture of Slug across, you got aspects of his character though, I thought. And he is a fairly complicated guy, I would imagine. Great job though on the whole, you've really improved from when I first read your writing.

Sharp - I don't speak much Spanish. At least, I stopped studying it in school years ago. So that don't help me much - I missed out on a few lines. But still, the Spanish language has a certain audible quality to it, that English doesn't, that helps me appreciate the mood of this verse. Anyways .. pretty good, but I felt that your verse didn't merge quite as well as Twix and Bounce's did. But that's just me.

Good collab fellas.

Bounce you wrote well as always and the Jamaican colours were a nice addition. There is little for me to criticise... You wrote well from Bob Marley's perspective and shared a little piece of him in your voice which was good. I enjoyed this piece.

Twixn you also wrote well... You communicated well and had a good flow in your piece which made this good. The content was very good and you wrote well from Slug's perspective... You also included a lot of emotion which made this different from the other pieces. Nice piece...

Sharp I don't speak any spanish whatsoever but I still enjoyed this piece. It was different to the others like Jekyll said but this was in an interesting way... You really because who you were writing through - including the language. I enjoyed your verse the most because I felt that you really tried to become him...

It's hard to comment as you all wrote through different artists and thus used very different styles to eachother. This was a different type of OM too... It wasn't quite the norm around here which I enjoyed. It was a good collab overall, I liked it a lot.

If you could leave feed on "Past and Present" by myself and AMEND I'd appreciate it. The link's in my sig.

Peace

Thanks for all the feed guys...

Jek, I am glad you caught the vibe, I wanted that to come arcross in the peice, but I wasn't sure a hip ho board would feel it. Im glad you did, Bob Marley has been an insperation to me in just about every facet of life. I wanted to do him justcie since this was a short peice, so far it seems like I did. Thanks again guy's, I don't think I'll have time to drop any peices in here or anywhere on the board, so this is it for a while...

i swear i saw that post yesterday...^^^

^Can you please tell me what you read as far as stock values go for yesterday? I think we can make a few bucks off your ability to foresee the future... :thumbup:

wow...tht sbit was pretty dope fellas'
liked Bounces verse tha most but all in all was very good...MAD FUCKING PROPZ YALL'

Thanks for not leaving a three word sentence as feed. We appreciate it...

Now get me the syrup!

I have the usual amount of knowlege about Bob Marley, know of Slug but I've not heard any of his music and I have honestly have no idea who Tego Calderon is, bit Im gonna try to do my best with this...

- Bounce Bob Marley....
Obviously, the first thing that strikes me is the whole Jamaican theme running throughout the verse. The colour scheme is executed perfectly and a really clever idea that adds a whole lot to the piece, props to either bounce or the guy who posted it on that. Now the piece itself was a very good read, you express excellently and I liked the way that you incorperated part of Bob's works into your piece, ie One Love and I've only ever heard the word Trenchtownin his songs, so I think you did really well with that. Your vocab is very strong, you have lines that I could never dream od writing, and especially as this would be such a tough topic to write about, I'll be taking notes lol....
Incite a movement with a groove meant to soothe men
Proven delusions abuse men, when War’s the only solution
....There my personal favourite lines, great work man.

- Twixn.... Slug....
Im not too familiar with the work of Slug, but I really liked your piece, maybe more than the other 3. Your vocab was excellent and you pursued the topic very well. In the times you came more simple with your vocab, its simplicity was overshadowed by the overall strength and meaning of the words, you're my favourite type of poet, one that I can read and it doesn't confuse yet its more complex than others. You're opener was a really nice bar, and your last few lines killed it very well. Overall, this was really nice and the only thing I couldn't really comment on was the fact it was written about Slug....

Sharp. Tego Calderon....
Ok, I have no idea who this guy is and I cant speak Spanish but Ima do my best... First off, I havent noticed Sharp aroind the site before, does that add to my noob status? Anyways, this piece to me wasn't the strongest out of the 3, but its by no means weak as it has plus points the others didnt have. I think the way you rhymes both languages fitted this piece perfectly, Spanish is a beautiful language and I think it made this verse stand out that much more, I can't really comment on what you were saying but I loved the whole concept of the verse......
Self hate laced lyrics fused with latin drums and beats.
A heavy bass to make sure you car thumps on streets
.... Thats a really nice line, excellently put, great work.

Overall, this was a great idea put to a really impressive collab. I think all three had there strong points, and each had good solid vocab and a fine structure. I liked the way the whole piece was set out too, good work to whoever did that.

I really like the musical artists concept to this piece, one Id like to tackle myself in the future.....

Great work :thumbup:

this was nice, and i was doing it!! why didnt you pmed me lol . .or w.e its cool i guess..

this was a nice read :)

Thanks to everyone for leaving replies. I really appreciate the feedback. I know most people don't know tego, lol. He's a reggeaton artist, pretty new but I think he's dope. By the way, I'm sharp, Aka Paroxysm, Aka Brian Amaya, Aka that sexy motherfucker that you love. Damn issue, you really left alot of feed, that's so damn appreciated. Everyone else, love ya' little bastards.

*hands out pancakes to everyone*

Thanks eddy, we waited for three weeks for everyone to get their verses done, I wish you would've posted your piece sooner.

I would've liked to have done a verse for this, it could've been Pancakez feat. Jekyll.

Sharp, we never did that collab we spoke about a while ago on AIM. I'll PM you a verse later this week, and see what you come up with. Okay?

That would be dope as fuck. I always wanted to do a collab with you man.

Keep your eye's out for Issue, I can tell you now, he will be one of the elite on RB if he keeps his head straight, and absorbs the advice he is given. Good looks on that feed man, and yeah the color scheme is my own, I'm known for off the wall shit like that. I remember that verse I dropped in SS against kerr had some what of a color scheme to it.

Thanks to all for the feed, and Eddy, damn wish we could have had your portion, but there is always next time. Jek, you know we are due for some kind of collab, I just need to find the time, I really liked this one, from our favorite artist perspective, you know I had to get in on that.

Thanks to all the Pancakez for allowing me write with them, you do know this is my first ever collab right?

Here's an idea, next one lets do it throught the eye's of our favorites artists' children, I will have some serious fire for that!!!

:love:

:( i thought this was audio...anyways...nice

good to see this more vets returning to OM...and Bounce,good thing you did with the new rules.OM was infested with to many lame "artists" and disses...
ok now for your collab...

Bounce
Good idea to use the jamaican colors,and i could see some Bob Marley thoughts there...you wrote well from his perspective.i liked everything about your verse:the flow,the rhymescheme,the vocabulary,and especialy your ideas,the thoughts...i really like your style man.

Twixn
you wrote well from Slug's perspective.but for some reason i couldn't relate to him the same way i did with Bob Marley in Bounce's verse.but don't get me wrong you did a good job...you're ideas and thoughts were also good.the flow and vocabulary was all on point...

Sharp

i don't know that much spanish,but i could understand most of the things you've said...i liked that you blended two languages in your verse,especially that one was a latino language.i don't know...there's something about latin languages...they are more musical,they sound the best when it comes to singing.what i didn't like about your verse is that i didn't feel it like Twixn's and Bounce's verses.other than that nothing to complain.good job.

Overall a great collab guys...no flaws really stood up...all of you had mature thoughts and ideas,and this to me is very important...Keep it up!

Thanks for taking the time man, it's appreciated...

Bounce - Always a pleasure to read your stuff, and as said before the Jamaican colors were a great addition and really upped the overall look of it.. i liked the outline of the whole thing, nice to see you draw inspiration from such a great man... That's always good when you can find something or someone that you are really passionate about, and write to it.. it came out beautiful and i am looking forward to seeing more from you.. flow, structure, writers voice.. all strike the bullseye of the target.

Twixn - i really liked yours too, you have improved much from when you first joined TNL way back when you first registered, that is awesome. I thought everything from yours was really on point also. I'm sure all of the people would be proud, i really liked the simplicity at times in your verse, simplicity is key at times and can really up the read, so you did a really good job with that and it made for a smooth gliding read.. good job.

Sharp - and just like issue, i dont really know who the guy that you did is Sharp, so i googled him and found a sample of one of his tracks and he is really good, nice to see you did him.. i thought the multi-language was a really nice addition to it, spanish is a beautiful language when used correctly and you did just that, you nailed this verse and i really enjoyed reading this also. very good job.

I thought mainly this was a very good collab that i am happy i read and took my by storm, you all exceeded my expectations, so good job to all of you and hail to the cakes.

:)

Again, thanks for the feed gentleman, we really do appreciate any and all feedback.

i know someone hasn't read this...
