J.Ivy "Never Let Me Down" CLASSIC
"Let it been known that God's penmanship has been signed with a language called love
That's why my breath is felt by the deaf
And why my words are heard and confined to the ears of the blind
I, too, dream in color and in rhyme
So I guess I'm one of a kind in a full house
Cuz whenever I open my heart, my soul, or my mouth
A touch of God reigns out"

and i swear to god im paying karma from a past life

they full of them selves and they promises are empty"

Hieroglyphics - At The Helm
"Lesson #1: rekindle the essence
Rap ain't about bustin caps and fuckin bitches
It's about fluency with rhymin ingenuity
All of this is new to me, see I peep rhymes
with scrutiny, under a microscope I walk a tightrope
A thin line between insanity and sanity
mixed with a little vanity, boostin the morality
with Hiero hospitality, soon to strike it rich
like calories, salaries, ahh sounds like a plan"

Beast 1333 interview on conspiracy fm
Before i tell u how dope this interview is i just want to mention a couple of things. My name is Krystell and i started this blog because of my own mind clutter. As a young girl i always felt something wasn't right within our society. Inside myself i knew lied deeper truths. Still till this day i battle back and forth between being this free spirit and being this contained spirit. This blog was made for me to post things up on that were on my mind ...if you followed the blog since the beginning i would do posts where i was just free writing...typing things along as i made it up. I think a lot and people always tell me not to. But i would always and i mean ALWAYS rather over analyze something than under analyze it. I have a love for music which is also a main part of this blog...i love wisdom...i love words and the infinite possibility of words which is why i make music . I am very fond of writing and now that i am comfortable enough to orally give people a piece of me i feel like im finally letting myself be free.
The reason im saying all of this is because when i listened to this interview by BEAST1333 i didn't feel someone trying to be conspirator i felt like a part of me was saying what he was saying with him. I remember the first time i listened to Beast it was through myspace a while ago before i was even making music and i just loved him. He was obviously a talented wordsmith but he also had that passion for truth and above all just being free. I was later on fortunate to get my start with a producer who also worked with Beast. The first song i ever did i spoke to BEAST on the phone and he told me "thats hip hop" ill never forget it because it was the first time i really felt like i had some type of talent. Im a fan of Beast1333 i believe he is a talented talented person and most of all i agree with him.
"take scraps on information from both parties and use your intuition to come to your own assumptions"

Symbolism in the movie 9
I thought this was interesting because I just recently saw
the movie 9. I dont know if this is exactly accurate but i
do believe the movie in itself has alot of symbolism
and contains a message. I liked the movie.
This is a video of 9 before being made into a feature film. Story originally by Shane Acker

These cats come from North Carolina and have a real strong passion for what they do. I was fortunate enough to come across them on myspace. Although Mypace has become oversaturated and filled with alot of spam and cluttered promo i believe you still find gems all across this networking site. Alot of times i post about artist ive heard through myspace or other networking sites. These guys right here are a prime example. I listened to this LP the other day and i def am feeling it. Wishin On a Dream LP dropped in August of 2009 and i believe another one is on the way titled Don't Worry, We Gotcha: The LP click to see their video promo on facebook.

Kings of Convenience - Misread
"How come no-one told me
All throughout history
The loneliest people
Were the ones who always spoke the truth
The ones who made a difference
By withstanding the indifference
I guess it's up to me now
Should I take that risk or just smile?"

Mr.Hudson covered the Cover from Animal Farm BY George Orwell
Why did you choose this book?
Orwell is one of my favourites. Also I was in a school production of Animal Farm.
Talk us through your cover...
I want to do something punchy, cartoon but sinister. Really inspired by the shutter paintings of London Frontline.
Who else's My Penguin would you love to see?
Beck should be interesting.
Why did you want to be a part of My Penguin?
It's an honour, I've always loved picking up old editions in charity shops and on the south bank.
What are your top 5 favourite books of all time?
The Rainbow - D. H. Lawrence, 1984 Orwell, Shakespeare, The Rape Of The Lock - Pope, The Picture of Dorian Gray - Oscar Wilde
Why was your choice of book the best My Penguin to cover?
Mainly because I love Orwell. He lived on my street.
Do you think your having taken part in My Penguin will encourage your fans to cover their own favourite book?
I hope so.
A book cover is very different from your usual work, how did you find the contrast?
It was a real novelty as I don't usually work with visuals. Though I really enjoyed commissioning our album sleeve and working closely with the portrait painter, Clara Drummond.
An album cover often sets the mood for the album, how do you think your cover sets the mood for this book?
It should remind the reader that behind the farmyard fun there are very dark historical events being satirised. Orwell was unafraid to be doomy and gloomy.
Can you judge a book by its cover?
Always.
How do you hope your cover will inspire others?
Just to read the thing and then another one and another one.
Did you get it right the first time or did you have to give it a couple of tries?
Well I can't really paint or draw so yes quite a few attempts.
What music did you listen to whilst covering your my Penguin?
Gangsta Rap - quite fitting.
What are you reading at the moment?
Brideshead Revisited
Which other writers do you most admire?
Swift, Donne, Kureishi.
Which Classic have you always meant to read but never got round to it?
The Bible
Which fictional character would you most like to meet?
Helen Of Troy
Which literary character do you most identify with?
Aslan
I think this was a great interview! Thats crazy about George Orwell living on his street.
Paris Je T'Aime
I was watching this movie earlier ...great movie.
Makes you appreciate the art of film-making
