Late 808

 

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

Mozzy – Benz

All I ever wanted was a Benz
Took a chunk to the lot like give me this

Bob Marley & The Wailers Rainbow Country

Hey Mr. Music
Ya sure sound good to me
I can’t refuse it
What have we got to be

Feel like dancing
Dance cause we are free

I got my own
In the promise land
But I feel at home
Can you overstand

Until the road is rocky
Sure feels good to me
And if your lucky
Together we’d always be

I will ride it
The sun is a risin
The sun is a risin

Joyce Manor – Beach Community

Just a few miles down as the streets count backwards
I realize it’s true
Everything reminds me of you
A few miles down as the streets count backwards
I realize it’s true
Everything reminds me of you
Everything reminds me of you
Everything reminds me

MAX ft. JVKE and Bazzi – STRINGS

I hear strings play
Every time you look my way
Don’t you know that’s what you do
Feels like ooh
Make my heart beat
Double time when you’re on me
Don’t you know that’s what you do
What you do, what you do

Benny the Butcher – One Way Flight

What’s a stage with no mic and no voice of a poet?
What’s more important, the flower or the soil that grow it?

6LACK – Pretty Little Fears

I’m loving your light, vulnerable
Letting your guard down, it’s honorable
‘Specially when the past ain’t been that
Friendly to you, but there’s magic in that

Black Pumas – Colors

It’s a good day to be
A good day for me
A good day to see
My favorite colors, colors
My sisters and my brothers
They see ’em like no other
All my favorite colors

Now take me to other side
Little bitty blues bird flies
And gray clouds, or white walls, or blue skies
We gon’ fly, feel alright

Taylor Swift – Cruel Summer

And it’s new, the shape of your body

It’s blue, the feeling I’ve got

And it’s ooh, woah-oh

It’s a cruel summer

It’s cool, that’s what I tell ’em

No rules in breakable heaven

But ooh, woah-oh

It’s a cruel summer with you

The B-52’s – Revolution Earth

Endless distance
Wildlife and stars
Blanket the night
You lying beside me, darling
Eyes wide open
While the wide arc of the globe is turning
We feel it moving through the dark
Hear the hills
Scrape the sky
And our eyes fill with the falling sparks

Morgan Wallen – Livin’ the Dream

Mama don’t pray for my success anymore, yeah
But mama still prays for me
Seein’ the world ain’t really seein’ the world
Through a window from A to B

Ja Rule – New York

And I’m not cocky, I’m confident
So when you tell me I’m the best it’s a compliment

Talking Heads – Psycho Killer

You start a conversation, you can’t even finish it
You’re talking a lot, but you’re not saying anything
When I have nothing to say, my lips are sealed
Say something once, why say it again?

Dave & Central Cee – Sprinter

The mandem too inconsiderate, five-star hotel, smokin’ cigarette
Mixin’ codeine up with the Phenergan
She got thick, but she wanna get thin again
Drinkin’ apple cider vinegar
Wearin’ SKIM ’cause she wanna be Kim and ’em
Uh, alright, I know that you’re bad, stop actin’ innocent

Pink Floyd – Learning to Fly

Can’t keep my eyes from the circling sky
Tongue-tied and twisted
Just an earthbound misfit

Born to Run – Bruce Springsteen

The highways jammed with broken heroes
On a last chance power drive
Everybody’s out on the run tonight
But there’s no place left to hide

Led Zeppelin – Stairway to Heaven

There’s a lady who’s sure all that glitters is gold
And she’s buying a stairway to Heaven
When she gets there she knows, if the stores are all closed
With a word she can get what she came for

Taylor Swift – Dress

There is an indentation in the shape of you
Only bought this dress so you could take it off

Pharrell – Frontin’

I know that I’m carrying on
Never mind if I’m showing off
I was just frontin’
(You know I want you, babe)
I’m ready to bury it all
Unless you don’t care at all
But you know I want ya (I want ya)
(You should stop frontin’, babe)

Dua Lipa – Levitating

If you wanna run away with me, I know a galaxy
And I can take you for a ride
I had a premonition that we fell into a rhythm
Where the music don’t stop for life
Glitter in the sky, glitter in my eyes
Shining just the way I like
If you’re feeling like you need a little bit of company
You met me at the perfect time

Kendrick Lamar – Rich Spirit

The morality can wait
Feedback on low latency
I’m glitching from the face as my thoughts grow sacredly
I’m runnin’ out of space, ask Whitney, she okay
Never mind a hunnid K, why you lyin’ on Benjamin?

Pro Era & Capital STEEZ -Vinyls

70k and my inbox filled up
Firewalls, I got my empire all built up
I know Rome wasn’t built in a day, I live where I lay
Roaming, rolling stone that begins with an A
Nomadic, know him as the flow addict
Buzzing in your ear like headphone static

Drake – Body 2 Body

I know, you know, I’m in too deep to let it go
I know, you know, it’s in my nature to get distant

Dominic Fike – 3 Nights

Three nights at the motel
Under streetlights
In the city of palms
Call me what you want, when you want, if you want
And you can call me names if you call me up

JAY-Z – Takeover

We don’t believe you, you need more people

America – A Horse With No Name

On the first part of the journey
I was looking at all the life
There were plants and birds and rocks and things
There was sand and hills and rings
The first thing I met was a fly with a buzz
And the sky with no clouds
The heat was hot and the ground was dry
But the air was full of sound

I’ve been through the desert on a horse with no name
It felt good to be out of the rain
In the desert you can’t remember your name
‘Cause there ain’t no one for to give you no pain
La, la, la lala la la la, la, la
La, la, la lala la la la, la, la
