Rahsaan Patterson-Rahsaan Patterson

0 意見

新年快樂!
不過說起來也沒有甚麼新年新希望
只要我認識的人都健健康康然後我能把我計畫執行好就好
想要長高這種萬年老梗的希望我決定放棄了QQ

Rahsaan Patterson是另一位Neo-Soul重要的歌手
小時候在教堂唱歌的經歷讓他製作的音樂很有靈魂味
這張同名專輯是他於1997年的debut作品
雖然沒有在商業上獲得很大的成功,但卻獲得樂評很高的評價
事實上,他之後發的每張專輯都獲得很高的評價
我覺得這是一張第一次聽不會有很大印象或驚豔
但卻是非常非常耐聽的一張專輯

Track List
1. Stop By *
2. Spend the Night
3. Where You Are *
4. So Fine
5. Stay Awhile *
6. Come Over
7. Can't We Wait a Minute *
8. Joy
9. My Sweetheart
10. One More Night
11. Don't Wanna Lose It
12. Tears Ago
13. Ain't No Way
14. Soul Free

*號為我個人推薦的歌曲


Can We Wait a Minute live版
要融化了阿!好想要在現場聽看看

Wall and Piece-Banksy 作品集

0 意見

那天逛誠品看到一本書
或著正確的來說是一本畫冊,照片集
翻一下馬上就吸引我買回家了

一般人對於街頭塗鴉的印象是甚麼?
老實說我原本的印象還停留在張牙舞爪又五顏四色誇張簽名以及一些逗趣的惡趣味
但從Banksy的作品中卻不僅只於此
可以很輕易的從他作品中看出他對戰爭的反思,環境的反思,階級化與菁英化社會的反思
比起那些隔離於美術館等地方的"藝術"
這類型的創作反而更貼近我們的生活,更輕易的引起我的共鳴




越來越多的監視器?

女王當然會常常當上主角
蘇活區,很多同性戀出沒之處
雙黃線,嗯?

別再扔手榴彈了


他偷偷放進美術館的作品之一
Hey! Here got some presents.


位於巴基斯坦的高牆

好傳神的表達方式



"很多人從來不用他們的原創精神,因為沒人叫他們用"

"有條規則沒有例外,那就是人人都認為自己是規則的例外"

"藝術不像其他文化,因為藝術品的成功並不取決於他的觀眾"

"變的精於騙人,你就再也不用擅長其他事了"

"我們再也不需要英雄,只需要有人帶走資源回收"

"請求原諒永遠比請求允許容易"

By Banksy

Shad-The Old Prince

0 意見


消費卷馬上就這樣噴光了
我是乖乖遵照政策希望的路線走的好公民!
但希望馬政府不要被這種假象所騙 竟然還有消息說要再發一次?
經濟這麼好搞那我去發一發紙錢就好了阿何必需要政府
雖然花得很爽 但說真的 一次就夠了
興奮劑常吃就沒效啦(不代表第一次吃就一定有效)

來自肯亞的Shad從加拿大長大
不過卻是從英國樂壇開始他的音樂生涯
The Old Prince是他的第二張專輯
目前還不是很有名
不過相信他很快就會開始嶄露頭角
因為他的音樂太好聽啦
聽起來就很順
這張專輯想必可以獲得更多大眾的注目

Track List
1.Intro: Quest for Glory
2.I Don’t Like To *
3.What We All Want (ft. Kamau and Relic the Oddity)
4.Brother (Watching) (ft. B and F Kabango) *
5.Now A Daze
6.The Old Prince Still Lives At Home *

8.The Last Three Years Interlude
9.I Heard You Had a Voice Like An Angel / Psalm 137 *
10.Compromise
11.Exile
12.Get Up
13.Outro

*號為我個人推薦的歌曲


Brother (Watching)


I Heard You Had A Voice Like An Angel / Psalm 137

這種Style的念唱一向很對我的味

Al Green-Lay It Down

假期開始總是熱熱鬧鬧
這兩天大家聚在一起很開心阿
昨天熱炒今天和民&下午的四人八卦咖啡都不錯哦
但過幾天大家都就都不在台北了唉
只能繼續小宅男囉!我愛戶田!


Lay It Down是老牌靈魂&福音歌手Al Green 08年出的R&B專輯
可以預見的 整張專輯充滿濃濃的soul以及復古的味道
寧靜的夜晚聽著Green爺爺(他62歲啦)的聲線與樂器演奏完美配合真是一件享受阿
此外,他還有跟Corinne Bailey Rae合唱哦

0 意見


應該不多人聽過這團體
The Mighty Underdogs是由兩個MC跟一個製作人組合而成的三人嘻哈團體

曲風應該算是比較軟一點的饒舌吧


Track List
1."Monster" *
2."Hands in the Air"
3."So Sad (Featuring Julian and Damian Marley)"
4."Gunfight (Featuring MF Doom)" *
5."Ill Vacation (Featuring Lyrics Born)"

Raphael Saadiq-The Way I See It

4 意見


期末考就是要來點振奮人心的靈魂音樂才行
The Way I See It聽起來根本不像是2008年發行的專輯,反而比較像是老學校的靈魂樂,
彷彿帶聽眾坐時光機般回到五六零年代美好的靈魂樂時光,
就連我這種不懂靈魂樂的人來說也可以很enjoy
Old school實在太好聽了,Bravo!!

The Game-L.A.X

2 意見


The Game文再一發!
因為這兩天都在聽他這張專輯的緣故
如果有不愛這種音樂的人不要擔心 我還是會PO其他人的歌XD

The Game的第三張專輯,據他自己表示這也是他的退休作(Jay-Z,Eminem一百年前也說過)
而且就算真的"退休"了我想每年也會有一堆mixtape發行所以暫時應該不用太緊張
有別於他前兩張專輯的走向,這張的詞有比較多的內省與自省以這部分來說倒是有點像退休碟
不過依然相同的是他還是找來了一堆重量級人物跟他合作
光是聽這些人跟他合唱就值回票價了
額 好吧我其實沒花到錢

01. Intro (Prayer By DMX)
02. LAX Files
03. State of Emergency (Feat. Ice Cube)
04. Bulletproof Diaries (Feat. Raekwon)
05. My Life (Feat. Lil Wayne) *
06. Money
07. Cali Sunshine (Feat. Bilal)
08. Ya Heard (Feat. Ludacris)
09. Hard Liquor (Interlude)
10. House Of Pain
11. Gentleman’s Affair (Feat. Ne-Yo) *
12. Let Us Live (Feat. Chrisette Michelle) *
13. Touchdown (Feat. Raheem DaVaughn)
14. Angel (Feat. Common) (Produced By Kanye West) *
15. Never Can Say Goodbye (Feat. Latoiya Williams)
16. Dope Boys (Feat. Travis Barker)
17. Game’s Pain (Feat. Keyshia Cole) *
18. Letter to the King (Feat. Nas) (Produced By Hi-Tek) *
19. Outro (Prayer By DMX)

*號為我個人推薦的歌曲

看到星號這麼多就知道我為什麼不斷狂聽了哈哈
附上兩隻MV 有Chrisette Michele和Keyshia Cole的合唱幾乎就是好聽的保證

BTW,我就是看了這幾個MV以後突然很想要去刺青跟練肌肉的

The Game-My Life (feat. Lil Wayne)

4 意見



噢讀一讀會計後來就變成上網看The Game的MV...
還順便把部落格樣式換了兩下 哈哈
變成這樣好像不錯哦好像有比原本好的感覺

這首歌好好聽阿最近一直狂聽
其實發表好一陣子了吧不過我最近才想到我好像忘記去載LAX來聽
以至於我現在才在聽

兩個當代頂尖MC的合唱,不過被譽為The best MC ever的Lil Wayne在這首歌中卻是當Vocal哦!
Lil Wayne跟人合唱不稀奇(這兩年專輯裡沒有跟他合唱的才比較稀奇...)
但他當Vocal就比較少見了吧
再次推薦這首歌!


[Chorus: Lil' Wayne]

And I'm grindin' til I'm tired
They say "You ain't grindin' til you tired"
So I'm grindin' with my eyes wide
Looking to find
A way
Through the day
A life
For the night
Dear Lord, you've done took so many of my people but I'm just wonderin' why
You haven't taken (my life? x3)
Like what the hell am I (doing right? x3)
(My Life x3)

[Verse 1: The Game]

Take me away from the hood like a state penitentiary
Take me away from the hood in the casket or a Bentley
Take me away
Like I overdosed on cocaine
Or take me away like a bullet from Kurt Cobain
Suicide (Suicide... suicide...)
I'm from a Windy City, like "Do or Die"
From a block close to where Biggie was crucified
That was Brooklyn's Jesus
Shot for no f**kin' reason
And you wonder why Kanye wears Jesus pieces? (My Life x3)
'Cause that's Jesus people
And The Game, he's the equal
Hated on so much, "The Passion of Christ" need a sequel
Yeah, like Roc-a-fella needed Sigel
Like I needed my father, but he needed a needle (My Life x3)
I need some meditation, so I can leave my people
They askin' "Why?" Why did John Lennon leave The Beatles?
And why every hood nigga feed off evil?
Answer my question before this bullet leave this Desert Eagle

[Chorus: Lil' Wayne]

And I'm grindin' til I'm tired
They say "You ain't grindin' til you tired"
So I'm grindin' with my eyes wide
Looking to find
A way
Through the day
A life
For the night
Dear Lord, you've done took so many of my people but I'm just wonderin' why
You haven't taken (my life? x3)
Like what the hell am I (doing right? x3)
(My Life x3)

[Verse 2: The Game]

We are not the same, I am a Martian
So approach my Phantom doors with caution (caution... caution)
You see them 24's spinnin'? I earned them
And I ain't no preacher, but here's my Erick Sermon
So eat this black music, and tell me how it taste, now?
And f**k Jesse Jackson cause it ain't about race, now
Sometimes I think about my life with my face down
Then I see my sons and put on that Kanye smile (My Life x3)
Damn, I know his momma's proud
And since you helped me sell my dream, we can share my momma now
And like MJB, "No More Drama" now
Livin' the +good life+, me and Common on common ground
I spit crack and niggas could drive it outta town
Gotta Chris Paul mind state, I'm never outta bounds
My life used to be empty like a glock without a round
Now my life full, like a chopper with a thousand rounds (Gunshots)

[Chorus: Lil' Wayne]

And I'm grindin' 'til I'm tired
They say "You ain't grindin' 'til you tired"
So I'm grindin' with my eyes wide
Looking to find
A way
Through the day
A life
For the night
Dear Lord you've done took so many of my people but I'm just wonderin' why
You haven't taken (my life? x3)
Like what the hell am I (doing right? x3)
(My Life x3)

[Verse 3: The Game]

Walk through the gates of Hell, see my Impala parked in front
The high beams on, me and the Devil share chronic blunts
Listening to the "Chronic" album, playing backwards
Shootin' at pictures of Don Imus for target practice
My mind f**ked up, so I cover it with a Raider hood
I'm from the city that made you motherf**kers afraid of Suge (Compton... Compton...)
Made my grandmother pray for good
And never made her happy, when I bet that new Mercedes could (My Life x3)
Ain't no bars, but niggas can't escape the hood
They took so many of my niggas, that I should hate the hood
But it's real niggas like me, that make the hood
Ridin' slow in that Phantom just the way I should (My Life x3)
With the top back
In my Sox hat
I'm paid in full, the nigga Alpo couldn't stop that
Even if they brought the nigga 'Pac back
I'd still keep this motherf**ker cocked back

[Chorus: Lil' Wayne]

And I'm grindin' til I'm tired
They say "You ain't grindin' til you tired"
So I'm grindin' with my eyes wide
Looking to find
A way
Through the day
A life
For the night
Dear Lord you've done took so many of my people but I'm just wonderin' why
You haven't taken (my life x3)
Like what the hell am I (doing right? x3)
(My Life x3)

DJ Jazzy Jeff-The Soul Mixtape

0 意見


這位DJ可是大有來頭哦,當初他可是跟Will Smith(沒錯就是那個現在常常演電影的那位)一起組成DJ Jazzy Jeff & The Fresh Prince雙人hip-hop說唱團體的另外一個成員哦。在Will Smith重心放在大螢幕的演出之後,他也把重心放在幕後發展,一直到2001年才又開始發行專輯(The Magnificent)。

有別於他過去的其他專輯,The Soul Mixtape是以Neo-soul以及R&B為主,聽起來也是別有一番風味!

North Econ-Cup

2 意見


這趟北經盃是我印象最深刻的一次比賽,原因很簡單,這是我從大一新生盃之後第一次成為隊上主要輪替球員。

"有上場的球員贏球的快樂是兩倍,但輸球的難過也是兩倍。"

我想我是深刻體會到這道理了,現在想到對清大的那場比賽依然令人心碎。
很想跟大家說,很抱歉我上場以後只能把比分追近到兩分,給了大家希望卻又發生關鍵失誤而輸球,但我知道這只是一個很自大的想法,其實勝負並非一個人能決定的,不是嗎?


Anyway,好喜歡跟大家一起奮戰的感覺啊!把輸球的遺憾當作動力,下學期大經盃再來吧!

88 Keys-The Death of Adam

0 意見


音樂製作人88-Keys的首張個人專輯,專輯的製作人為他的好友,也是近年來風頭很旺的Kayne West。 專輯的概念就是敘述調查某個男子Adam死因的過程,我覺得這概念很酷!話說封面也很酷耶一整個很有設計感。推薦這張專輯給平常不太聽hip-hop音樂的人們,我想這張專輯的flow即使是平常不聽hip-hop音樂的人也會覺得很好聽的。

M.I.L.F. (F. Bilal) Lyrics

Who’s the reason for my daddy’s grin?

At first glance
(echoes) Chemical reaction
Didn’t even say a word
(echoes) Mutual attraction

(echoes) Baby Making Hips
(echoes) Aint’ gon trip
Rock and roll for months now
You can call me pullout faster
But if by chance I come to slow
(echoes) U can say it was Predestine
Since we started out in 30 years
On day one
Step into the here and after
(Day one)
Babies making babies making

chorus
Who’s the reason for my daddies grin?

(echoes) The answer
It’s true
Your momma
It’s true
Brings drama
It’s true
Then she got me
It’s true
Cause I’m your father

Verse 2
I hear she has a child
People say looks just like me
But I haven’t seen her in a while
Every since she tried fight me
Now she’s hurtin it, That’s it, Oh shit
City papers in the mail
Looka here at what I started
But if I laid that Pipe down
Maybe then she’ll drop the charges
Man she’s Psycho (psycho) man she’s psycho
Yes she’s loco(loco)
Sexy as she wanna be
Well is all my fault
Babies making babies making

It’s true…(fades)

Jamie Foxx的第三張專輯,這張專輯同樣集合了很多大咖合唱耶,這難道是最近專輯的趨勢嗎?約略聽幾次覺得這張好像沒有前一張Unpredictable來的好聽,不過和我最愛的帥哥T.I的首波主打還是很不錯,我發現他們倆個的配合一直都很合我的胃口

Jamie Foxx Just Like Me FEAT T.I.

[Intro: T.I.]
Say Foxx? (Yeah... eah... eah...)
I had-I had a chick man-
(Yeah... eah... eah...)
She went and did me real
wrong, I mean (Yeah... eah... eah...)
I did the same thing to her but-
She ain´t have no right to do
me like that though dawg, for
real (Yeah... eah... eah...)

[Verse 1: Jamie Foxx]
You, been seeing him, and I know
And I was with her, and you knew about it
But I was too bli-I-ind to see it baby
And you was out here doing
the same thing as me
I wanna ask, has he been by the crib?
Has he been in our, car?
And did you let him, drive?
Cause she's been by the house
She's been in the car
I´ve even let her push the
Porsche around a couple times
Ohh, we were so the same
I don´t know why I can´t see it baby
And it ain´t a point to feeling blue
you´re just like me and I´m just like you

[Chorus: Jamie Foxx]
you´re just like me
Shorty all up in the club
Popping bottles of that Bud
Giving all them dudes hugs
And you just like me
She don´t know how to act
On the floor back in the back
Man I can´t be mad dapslyrics
She just like me-e-ee-e-e
She just like me-e-ee-e-e
She just like me-e-ee-e-e
She just like me...

[Verse 2: Jamie Foxx]
Now it ain´t so easy for me
to be imagining what you been doing baby
So I don´t even have to ask (No)
Cause you ain´t the only one
that keeping secrets baby
So really, no sense in me playing "bye"
And I, can´t stay up though
Cause I did you wrong
And I was on some kush
When I let that *** up in our home
She's out from us just like me
And she played the game
like one of my homies
Ohh, we were so the same
I don´t know why I can see you baby
And it ain´t a point to feeling blue
you´re just like me and I´m just like you

[Chorus: Jamie Foxx]
you´re just like me
Shorty all up in the club
Popping bottles of that Bud
Giving all them dudes hugs
And you just like me
She don´t know how to act
On the floor back in the back
Man I can´t be mad
She just like me-e-ee-e-e
(Getting money, having fun, man she)
Just like me-e-ee-e-e (In the club,
throwing ones, man she)
Just like me-e-ee-e-e (24's on the Range)
Just like me... (Go on shawty do your thang)

[Bridge: T.I.] Hey!
Shawty who you fooling?
You know I´m way too cool for you
To run that game when we play me
Trying to do me like I be doing you
Say you heard I was screwing her
Just like I hear he doing you
Why you worry about me doing me
I see you doing you
I can make her better though
You gon let him ruin you
Just for the record
Know, I wouldn't have her
unless I could have the two of you
I know why he pursuing you
That booty do be moving boo
Late night, straight pipe
That ain´t nothing new to you
Wait a minute
can´t tell me

Wanna tell me
Something tell me this
If I woulda never woulda hit that chick
Would you even ever know that dude existed? Naw.
Got me twisted
Yo ass goodbye I´ve kissed it
Now you all on his ***
Shawty look at this ***

[Chorus: Jamie Foxx]
Just like me
Shorty all up in the club
Popping bottles of that Bud
Giving all them dudes hugs
And you just like me (You know
I was wrong shawty)
She don´t know how to act
On the floor back in the back
Man I can´t be mad
She just like me-e-ee-e-e
(You dealing with a man with
an ego, you know?)
She just like me-e-ee-e-e
She just like me-e-ee-e-e
She just like me...
