You Wack Emcees

Same swag, different day
As some people may want to say
But the truth is their swag is stuuupid
Or stupendous but... only to themselves 'cause
The mirror mirror on the wall
Told them lies, saying they were the dopest of all
Got them walking around proud and tall
Head all off in a fog
Caused by the smog birthed from the hot air they blow
Steeped in the deep part of their souls
Its to that place that they go, where life is a show
And emceeing is all they know
Hard to break free when panties are being thrown
Business cards are being show, and jets are being flown
And you just want to be put on
One...just get a tag for your bag
Play like you just got back from there, son
Keep moving around with other phony ones
Playing like they networking but really club hopping
Fake studio and video spot shopping
But only up north Chicago 'cause thats what's popping
I think you better just stop it
See, there's respect for the grind
You don't just get to shine 'cause you feeling starlike
Or you look good on your photo holding a mic
Yeah, you gotta hustle homie
But not hustle ya homies
You want to spit hot fire like
"Dylan, Dylan, Dylan...Dylan, Dylan"
But when you open your mouth you just be lyyying
Laying there day dreaming about how cold you want to be
Overestimating the greatness of your lyrical quality
You make folk yell out like B.I.G. (R.I.P.)
"Vamoose, you're wack to me.  Take those wack rhymes
back to the factory".
Or get a refund and hire a ghostwriter
That way you're not reeeeally a biter
Plus it will free up your time
So you can just practice rhyming line by line
In the mirror
So your facial expressions can start
Look clearer
And you can work on being fresh to death

How to Walk Away & Not Care (Confidently Cutting Folks Off)

More than likely you've been in a situation where you had a significant heart break that prompted you to become a little loose with your standards--hopefully not, but you may have thought about it.  Maybe you decided never to love again or some dramatic equivalent or perhaps you just wandered into a shady and unsavory situation due to several factors.  We all have had our experiences.  Sometimes people jump into multiple relationships. Some people hide from love and sabotage themselves going forward.  Some people get hurt by heathens because they fail to walk away from stuff they should have never engaged.  Hopefully, this article will serve as a way for you to shake yourself and regroup as you remind yourself just how dope you really are!  While tongue in cheek, there is some help or at least comic relief for you. I'm Sorry.  I'm Just Not Your Type. Lets explore that one time you were sad or lonely or bored or...whatever and you decided to hang out wi...

Fake Friends in Difficult Days (This one steps on toes....so be it)

A short while ago Oprah actually had a show talking about things that women learn in their thirties.  I had been saying that my learning curve happened in my twenties and continues in my 30s.  I have always been thought of as a person who is wise beyond her years but there are somethings you just can't learn until you have lived and taken some lumps and suffered some bruises.  For some reason I thought I learned that a lot of people are grimy and selfish when I was young. My first bestfriend dated my first "boyfriend" behind my back when I was in grammar school and my other bestfriend did the same thing to me behind my back when I was a freshmen in highschool. I concluded people were scandalous early on and was proven right repeatedly, but it never phased me much.  I just kept it moving.  I had no idea that there was intense seasons of life coming to teach me more about people. ...

Plot Twists: When Life Doesn’t Go According to Script

There’s a meme floating around social media that says,  “ When something goes wrong in your life, just yell ‘Plot Twist’ and move on .”                                    Cute, right? But in real life, we don’t always appreciate whimsical responses to our painful, unexpected moments. Change can be scary—especially when it’s the kind we never saw coming or had a chance to prepare for in advance.  If you’ve ever said, “I hate surprises,” then you know exactly what I mean. Plot twists are surprises, but not the fun kind. They’re the moments that flip your world upside down—the abandonment of a spouse, a separation or divorce, the loss of a parent, a health scare, a stressful family conflict, and abuse of any kind. Feelings of isolation or alienation can be plot twists, too. No one expects these experiences to become the main plot of their story. No one imagines that abuse and betrayal can m...
