Let the dollar circulate!!!

Another one...Mr. Billy Paul!! from the hits "Me and Mrs Jones" to "It's too late" and ofcourse "Let the dollar circulate" and the list goes on...This cat is mos def one of the greatest.

While sitting at work today I was listening to Billy Paul, the vocals and the instrumentals are just insane! which makes me wonder...HOW THE HELL DO THESE NEW CATS PRODUCE WHACK MUSIC AND STILL MAKE MONEY?? I don't know!!! am I hating you ask? NOPE! I just don't like the music that are out right now. Check my playlists im Ol' school son! I got my grandparents' playlist on my ipod kid! lol. Go ahead and ask Cass P she knows best! lol Shout out to Cassie OH by the way!

So why am I blogging about this? well let's just say L&W is currently working on a new project...which you guys will have to keep an eye on.

If any of you never ever ever ever heard the songs i mentioned above, you can stick to your radio! ATTACK the WHACK!

And if you do get hooked on this type of REAL MUSIC, you can thank me later.

"Concrete Schoolyard"

As far as I could remember that cat you see up there in the picture always loved football, I remember when we were all in elementary school we would run a few games in the school yard.
We even made our own football out of Scoth Tape, because the teacher had taken away our crusted up nerf football lol.
Shane Francis, had worked really hard to get where he is right now. He now plays for the Bishop Gaiters, and hoping to be out in CFL or NFL anytime soon. Please do keep an eye for him, cause we all know that he'll make it.

"From concrete schoolyard, to Turf fields"

You are running. You look back, and see that what ground you have gained, you are quickly losing. And for many moments you begin to question your purpose, lost in a daze of uncertainty that make your legs weak so close to give. Your nerves amalgamate to a buzz that taper to your head in waves. It feels like one hundred snakes are hissing inside of your ears, tempting to secrete its poisons. But then - a spark occurs inside of you, the depths are lit. You keep on running - faster now, you seldom look back, only to see how far you have come. You, fueled by nothing but courage and will - a metaphor of how the mind strengthens what matter can merely hold, and how an instant is all that is needed for a cause to lead a change, and for others to be thus inspired from it.

This was not an escape, it was liberation.
Your shadow runs with you, now. It does not lead the chase.
-"Jack" L&W team

They say the beauty is in the eye of the beholder...

One of the Life&Wisdom collection, Pearlz and I worked on it about a year ago and it turned out pretty dope! "The beauty is in the eye of the beholder" is self explanatory...If you don't get it, then i feel sorry for you. lol.

ONE more for T.O.

Toronto is:

ballad-jazz, in revelatory chains

beat hip-hop, speak, straight outta poetic brains

gritty without bravado, complacent but always hungry, loud but never screamin'

serene where the shit is hidden, where stars are few to wish upon, but where dreams just need a vision. - "Jack" L&W team

it aint a crime.

Stoked out cat, from Amsterdam brewery in T.O. '09
