Thoughtful Tuesday #56 | Blue Scholars - “Still Got Love”
Everybody get hurt, everybody cries
Everybody falls down, not everybody rise
Not everybody talks, but everybody lies
Not everybody lives, but everybody dies -
Thoughtful Tuesday #55 | Blue Scholars - “George Jackson”
Nobody move everybody get hurt
I’m sticking up the world now for everything it’s worth
I ain’t try to rest, shit is getting worse
Gotta do more than just put it in a verse
In the future everybody wanna be an entertainer
So tell me who the fuck is gonna be around to pay us
Trying to do us dirty like the shit is not labor
All up in the game and don’t deserve to meet your maker

Phat Beat Friday #55 | Blue Scholars - “27”
On my 27th round trip around the sun
Counting every blessing, reminicing on the drum
But not for a second ever forgetting where I’m from
Others grip the gun, my weapon is my tongue___
Turned 27 today, feeling old as fuck with not much to show for it. Oh well, at least there’s a Blue Scholars song about being 27 and my birthday is a Phat Beat Friday this year.

Thoughtful Tuesday #54 | Blue Scholars - “May Day”
Can’t lie, I know the music can be influential,
but not as influential as desperation. They saying
that you gotta act right if you wanna have rights,
but what if you were born into a wrong situation?
Moral relativity — that passive aggressive city stuff —
becoming history quicker than you can blink at me.
Rule 1: Protect yourself at all times.
Rule 2: Always end but never start a fight.
Get the instrumental as part of Sabzi’s Townfolk - YESLER beat tape here!
Instrumental originally used on “BFA Say prod. Sabzi” by Brothers From Another!

Phat Beat Friday #52 | Thomax - “Fire For the People REMIX(Blue Scholars)”
“I annihilate a fake persona for spare change
everybody, self included, is fair game”This is the 3rd version of this Blue Scholars song I’ve posted, probably one of the dopest remixes I’ve ever heard.

Thoughtful Tuesday #48 | Blue Scholars - “La Botella”
Hurling chunks of dinner in the middle of the swirl
That’s the price you pay to kick it with the liquor
To act a fool, talk shit, and blame it on our lack of inhibition
I’m drinking my last glass of spirits for a minute
The battle with the bottle and the bottle is winning
So liquor please, strategically abuses the weapon
And used by the natives making way for the settlement
Arrested the development of working class citizens
Capacity to fight back is limited
And frustrated men take it out upon their wife and little children
Seen it first hand in the building that we lived in
And chances is the kids will grow up to drink the pain away
Some will walk away from it all and be ok
But some will fall hard in a mad different way
In a future on the block in the middle of the day
With a tall can wrapped in a brown paper bag
It’s a tragic ass story ya’ll
It’s the bottleLord forgive me, the Hennessy got me not knowing how to act

Thoughtful Tuesday #44 | Blue Scholars - “Proletariat Blues”
It seems that we never get paid what our labor is worth
That’s why we often in a daze on the way to our work
And when we get there, we can’t wait to be out
So let me tell you what it’s about
