Late 808

 

A new photo and hip-hop lyric, everyday. All photos taken by Karlyle. Enjoy!

Sade – Love Is Stronger Than Pride

Sitting here wasting my time
Would be like waiting for the sun to rise
It’s all too clear things come and go
Sitting here waiting for you
Would be like waiting for winter
It’s gonna be cold, there may even be snow

Yellow Days – A Little While

Oh don’t you see it now?
I’m staying for a little while
Oh don’t you see it now?
I’m staying for a little while

J. Cole Ft. Bas & 50 Cent – New York Times

The New York Times, yeah

The New York Times

Extra, extra, read all about it

They say you can win anywhere if you can win here

And you ain’t been nowhere if you ain’t been here

Hustle hard, yeah it really ain’t a game mane

Same places, different faces on the train mane

New York, New York

Beyoncé – Single Ladies

All the single ladies (All the single ladies)
All the single ladies (All the single ladies)
All the single ladies (All the single ladies)
All the single ladies
Now put your hands up

Hope Tala – Stayed at the Party

One day we’ll all be gone
No trace left of this song
You and me
Ashes and dust
All that’s left of us
And that’s been on my mind
No answers there to find
Silly me
Thinking too much

LIA LIA – Night Call

I know I shouldn’t wait for your call
I tell myself I didn’t fall for you
I know I put the struggle on myself
Real women are busy, real women never wait
Can’t take my hands off the phone
No new message is shown
Another word and I’m blown
Another minute I’m gone

David Bowie – Andy Warhol

Andy Warhol looks a scream
Hang him on my wall
Andy Warhol, Silver Screen
Can’t tell them apart at all

Tommy Richman – MILLION DOLLAR BABY

I ain’t never rep a set, baby
Ain’t do no wrong
I could clean up good for you
Oh, I know right from wrong
‘Cause I wanna make it so badly
I’m a million-dollar baby, don’t at me
I ain’t never rep a set, baby
Ain’t do no wrong
I could clean up good for you
Oh, I know right from wrong
‘Cause I wanna make it so badly
I’m a million-dollar baby, don’t at me (No, no, no)

Lauryn Hill – I Gotta Find Peace of Mind

I gotta find peace of mind
I know another cord…
I gotta find peace of mind
See, this what that voice in your head says
When you try to get peace of mind
I gotta find peace of mind, I gotta find peace of mind

He says it’s impossible, but I know it’s possible
He says it’s impossible, but I know it’s possible

Kanye West Ft. Jay-Z – Diamonds From Sierra Leone (Remix)

This ain’t no tall order, this is nothin’ to me
Difficult takes a day, impossible takes a week
I do this in my sleep, I sold kilos of coke (So?)
I’m guessin’ I can sell CDs
I’m not a businessman, I’m a business, man
Let me handle my business, damn

Good Neighbours – Home

Darling, won’t you take me home?
Send me shivers somewhere I used to go
Wrap my name across your mouth
When I let my feelings down
Darling, won’t you take me home?
Yeah, won’t you take me

SZA – Saturn

Find something worth saving
It’s all for the taking
I always say

JAY-Z – Heart of the City (Ain’t No Love)

Youngins ice-grillin’ me, oh, you not feelin’ me?
Fine, it cost you nothin’, pay me no mind
Look, I’m on my grind, cousin, ain’t got time for frontin’
Sensitive thugs, y’all all need hugs
Damn, little mans, I’m just tryna do me
If the record’s two mil’, I’m just tryna move three

Taylor Swift Ft. Ed Sheeran – Everything Has Changed

‘Cause all I know is we said, “Hello”
And your eyes look like coming home
All I know is a simple name
And everything has changed
All I know is you held the door
You’ll be mine and I’ll be yours
All I know since yesterday
Is everything has changed

JAY-Z – Beach Chair

No compass comes with this life, just eyes
So to map it out, you must look inside

Keni Burke – Risin’ To The Top

Big time illusions
Create a lot of confusion
But the time has finally come
Let’s get it done
Keep moving, yeah moving

Dua Lipa – Houdini

They say I come and I go
Tell me all the ways you need me
I’m not here for long
Catch me or I go Houdini
I come and I go
Prove you got the right to please me
Everybody knows
Catch me or I go Houdini

Thin Lizzy – Don’t Believe a Word

Don’t believe me if I tell you
Not a word of this is true
Don’t believe me if I tell you, especially if I tell you
I’m in love with you

Steve Lacy – Bad Habit

What you, ooh, uh, what you do?
Made a move, could’ve made a move
If I knew I’d be with you
Is it too late to pursue?

Billie Eilish – CHIHIRO

I was waitin’ in the garden
Contemplatin’, beg your pardon
But there’s a part of me that recognizes you
Do you feel it too?
When you told me it was serious
Were you serious? Mm
They told me they were only curious
Now it’s serious, mm

Still Woozy – Goodie Bag

Oh what they think about you
Prepare to leave my body when the time it comes through
Loving on you
‘Til the time it comes through
Why you always hate to break bread?
Think about the way that you would feel if never said
Jokes on you
Well it’s time to come through

Lana Del Rey – Sweet

If you wanna go where nobody goes
That’s where you’ll find me
In the sweet north country
If I’m not there, comе to my house on Genesee

David Bowie – Fashion

Fashion! Turn to the left
Fashion! Turn to the right
Ooh, fashion!
We are the goon squad and we’re coming to town
Beep-beep
Beep-beep

Lil Yachty – TESLA

Dawgy sеrve it anywhere, еven army bases
Ain’t gotta like me, they just gotta face it
