#NewTrack #TumblrRap #ATFU
I dig Tumblr. I like the way you can give your posts more flavor with links and such. I really enjoy blogging on this site.
There’s a lotta folks who use Tumblr a lotta different ways, just like Twitter. Lotsa folks use it LIKE Twitter, which at first I admittedly didn’t understand, but once I had Tumblr on my SMARTPHONE, it made that style of posting make perfect sense. It’s like Twitter with cooler pics and more commentary on the eyePhone, man.
Anyway, that leads to the inspiration for this post. I’ve been wanting to do this for a while…and I do it from time-to-time when I post #BARS here, but I put this one together specifically with ‘Tumblr’ in mind.
Here it is, just some a quick minute of Monster Factory shit with the lyrics posted and links for all the goofy stuff I reference. I’m a big fan of sneaking punchlines into #BARS, not in a “leaving the word ‘like’ outta similes” way, but in a way where wordplay will lead you back to the reference. Sometimes, I’ll use the background vocal to lead the listener back to the reference, #aswell. Lotsa cats do it, it ain’t like I’m doing anything brand-new, but I’ve been findings ways to avoid the word ‘like’ in rhymes for a while.
‘Tumblr Rap 1’ - Rusty Redenbacher (#ATFU)
I am The Natural, Roy Hobbs, on mics and decks.
I drop an album one week and start a new one the next.
Slay the best rappers alive via fax or text
You want the best, I bring the best so expect nothing less.
I take the stress and tell em, ‘Meh. gimme more.’
I whip it, whip it, whip it, like Demi Moore
I’m devo………ted to my clan and my hood
Never question that, always bring the blessings back
#ATFU, yes we back, just another lesson, Black
Yeah, and I’m flexing that legend rap, address the facts
Pushin forward for all the busters tryna set us back.
Just a lil somethin…staying sharp.
Rawkawn.
