Verse of the Day:

Today's verse of the day goes to Wale. From his More About Nothing track "Black & Gold." Dope verse, dope track from a monstrous mixtape.

Back like I never ever left in the first

Wale a (Redskin?), the best on the earth, breath breath full of purp

A legend out here, and I'm ending careers by the end of my year

Two course when you mention my gear, lil low low lil showboat, nigga (incoherent)

Rosey for the hoes in the V.I, P-P.I, gotta do it more like T.I

Whatever You Like, it's whatever tonight

I might get a pipe unless you pedaling bikes

I mean cycling

I was liking it

Hit me up in a couple days, we can try again

I need henny on the rock, my Queen top notch

And I keep a fly girl like Jenny from the block

Got H2 in me, Flossburg with me

Throw a round game, Strasburg pitching

Tonight no pictures, everything's straight

And we gonnna toast up for the niggas that hate

And we gonna drink dark, we gonna take it to they face

And I got them gold bottles, first place

No metal here, I'm well aware

Y'all Mario brothers, I'm Metal Gear

I don't ever fear nothing, I'm forever here.

Hands up DJ, let let 'em hear!

Verse of the Day:

 

Sorry folks haven't been doing these lately.. Today's Verse of the Day is J. Cole's "Grown Simba." This track always gets to me, anticipation builder for the next mixtape!

Excuse the tags, couldn't find another stream.

Pardon the interruption; a proper introduction is necessary when your shit is legendary

Man, greedy niggas wouldn’t let me in the cafeteria

Cuz they aint believe, suddenly they Presbyterian

The hoes is librarians, they looking me up

She got a jones like Marion, she licking me up

Then we cut, look how she say my name

I got her moaning J. cole, they used to say Jermaine

I never change, Im like a corpse in a coffin, 6 feet, shits deep

I was low, just a dolla and some hope fixed me

Cuz I was broke plus the weed that I would smoke would make it worser

Lord, please let my problems disappear like Ron Mercier

I’m a star, Conversers , conversing with them girls, with them curves like cursive

They open like curtains because my shit is unheard of like curses on the radio

Same bitches used to play me though

Now they yelling...

Verse of the Day:

Just another product of this matrix
This maze I'm in amazes me at times
I just wanted to be at peace with you
And if I gotta settle for a piece of you,
then I gotta say peace to you.
With all due respect I do respect you enough to expect...
effort is all i ask.
If we gonna last more, I gotta ask for more
and if that means that I'm askin for too much
I'm sure we'll end up as our last or...past
we bash
we blast
we shoot
we lose
we pass.....war

Today's verse of the day comes from a song by Wale entitled "The War." Deep song, great mixtape.

Verse of the Day:

I wipe the coal/cool from my eye
Stationed in Antartica, coldest nigga alive
Flow is Armeggedon much like crows/Cruise from the Sky
Before you drive you have to wipe locusts off your rides
But I'm warming up, oceans is on the rise
I be Ocean with 11 associates on my side
Colder than Chris Martin guitarin'- would you look at all these 'Spies'?
But they can't see me, I took out their eyes/I's
Replace with some me's, so all they see is he's
But I will never run, not even if they cry
See I can never fall, not even down their cheek
But I will always ball/bawl,let's see who the first to blink
And I dont need no passwords cause I dont need to cheat
But you can say your last words
and you can rest in peace
I'm the hook after your last verse I'm also like the beat
But I will turn it down so you can go to sleep

Today's verse of the day comes from a new Lupe snippet called "Go To Sleep." The more you hear the one minute snippet the more you find metaphors, read in between the lines, don't sleep!

Verse of the Day: Asher Roth - G.R.I.N.D

Yea yea yo yo this one's for the people
all the B's that'll bleed and they sleep and they eat
shit believe the thought we're all equal
ain't a man on God's green be underneath any other
I don't wanna play preacher
but but I swear they turn their ear when we talk about peace and love
sometimes might need a hug yea we all wanna come on up above
but this ain't about Jesus, no way, no Abe, no Ike, Moses or Mohammad
yea it's all about believing, full steam ahead
because I know the worst times are behind me
I don't wanna sound cheesy but but but I just really mean it eh eh yea
I'm tellin' I can feel it eh eh it's the reason I was sleep
I be way too geek tonight

Verse of the Day: Lupe Fiasco - Mean & Vicious

Truthfully I have trouble with second verses
'Cause the first one be so intimidating
It be bullyin' pickin' on it instigating
Pointin' out all the second one's limitations like,
You ain't nothin' but an imitation like
bits of bacon then he gets the chorus and the beat to get together
Then they all gang up on 'em and get to hatin'
But then around that 8th bar he tires
so they conspire and commiserate
and then he finds his inspiration
To spar, he takes a few seconds of Judo lessons
Gets back on beat, then punches the guitar
They stand in awe like,
When did you write that?
They even right black
First verse already happened so he don't have a chance to fight back
I like that.

Verse of the Day: The Cool Kids - One, Two

Chuck was dope but chuck is cold
As a ice cream cone in a lce land snowstorm
Feelin like a ceiling fan blowing out the window
Midway city is the city where wind blows
Fairly cold, refrigerator buried with a little bit of gold
'85 bears jersey
Infra red spike lee Jordan number fours
Bow for a second then I pause for applause
Check it out if it's froze let it thaw
Let it rain clear it out that's the proper protocol
When I steps on the court with the ball on the floor
You dribbilin around just being a ball hog
(Uh) I got my kicks out my locker
If I ain't got the shot then I dish to my partner
Step behind the arc I cross I Byron Scott-er
If you want it I got it drippin like water

Verse of the Day: Pharrell - Us Placers

G R I P P I M P
I any spell a bitch come on that’s me
I bring a burner sensation to the urban eye
Like a eye drop of turpentine
You can listen to the serpent fine
But the earth got gas once it burps its fire
Some around me they talk about degrees
Now GHG how to cook a quart of ki
Talkin bout nasal he aint over that cold
No glove, scrub, man he's just over that stove
Perfect paradigm wrong place wrong time
Shoulda been Phizer Glaxo Smith Kline
Number one chemist look at the no blemish
Egg shell off white like a DUPONT finish
Young, dumb, how strong who can handle us?
I wonder how God’s goin paint today's canvases
Cause who knew that day that man would just
Go to VA with a tech and spray campuses
What a way to see the cover of time
I know that n**** wish he was standing in line
to see it..as if he didn't do it

Verse of the Day: Charles Hamilton - Pure Imagination

Imagine dozin off in my arms to the scent of chocolate and an incubus song
You feel free you ain't got much on
I feel free so I'm comin on strong
But I'm not tryna to climb inside you
I just wanna be in your mind to guide you
You don't see the beauty in your eyes but I do
The diamonds in your eyes don't lie you shine boo
And need I remind you that I do shine too
And I do find you divinely insightful
You said you weren't on the same page as me
But your lips and your eyes say you're cravin me
If it goes down what would he say to me
And even if it doesn't what would they believe
Just relax here and lay with me
Spend a day with me
Here in make believe

ACCC Verse of the Day: Lupe Fiasco - Glory

"When your spirit is strained and you limited to change
The lyrics in your limericks have changed
A different hook, the way the sentences arranged
More demented in your deliverance, more sinister in ya slang
Sounds more belligerent when its sang,
The truth...is limitless in it's range
If you, drop a "T" and look at it in reverse,
I could hurt, look at the grimaces of the pain
And its worse when it works, and ya membership is game
But you forgettin’ the proof, diminishes in the flames
Like poof, the media cause images in ya brain
Of the score of the war where militants is slain
The faces of the guilty where innocence is proclaimed
And they filthy, the death airs outta winners
The listeners outta lames...
Of the ballad of the man, that the son of a minister has became so."

Lupe Fiasco - Glory

ACCC Verse of the Day: J. Cole - Who Dat

“The mind state of a winner

When you thinkin bout summertime, I’m thinkin bout the winter

When you thinkin bout breakfast I’m heatin’ up my dinner

I was plotting this moment back when y’all was riding spinners

Now I’m a menace. God as my witness, with this pen I’m insane, yup

Hungry like the nigga who ain’t got the taste of fame yet

Cloud told me “Ain’t you Roc? Well? Where the fuck your chain at?”

Guess it’s somethin like your girl, it ain’t came yet

The man make the chain, chain don’t make the man

How many niggas do we know with hella ice but yet they lame

The cloth from which we came, me and them is not the same

Like we all headed to Spain, they took the boat I took the plane.

Dang that boy sick, now hoes on his joystick

Heatin up like May weather dog, I’m on that Floyd shit

Boy stick to ya day job, said you was hot but they lied

Is that ya girl? Well I just Jeter (g’d her), no A-Rod."

ACCC Verse of the Day: B.o.B. - Magic

These tricks that I'll attempt will blow your mind
Pick a verse, any verse, I'll hypnotise you with every line
I'll need a volunteer, how about you, with the eyes?
Come on down to the front, and stand right here and don't be shy
I'll have you time-travellin', have your mind babblin'
People tryna inherit the skill so they askin' me
Even David Blaine had to go and take some classes, and
I see Mindfreak like, "What's up man, what's happenin'?"
So come one, come all, and see the show tonight
Prepare to be astounded, no Ghost or Poltergeist
You know I'm no Pinocchio, I've never told a lie
So call me Mr. Magic Man, I float on Cloud 9

ACCC Verse of the Day: Diggy - Made You Look (freestyle)

Yeah, it’s been debated and contemplated if Diggy’s overrated
but what the haters have stated never penetrated
I’m so creative and innovative and I stay motivated by the concept of famous
and I ain’t even made it
the flow I cater is something major an indicator of what happens later
it’s greater than you’ve anticipated
some people love it they way I does it
that'swhy I leave them buzzing cause they callin me sick sometin like robitussin
I hear you coughing I treat you often with freestyle
and as I’m walking the people talking they see now
and I know rap for my age like Lil Bow Wow
Son of a King so why would I ever bow down

ACCC Verse of the Day: Wale - Contemplate

Them people, they talking
Them lights, they on me
This life I chose
But I aint know, til I found it
To be honest, I'm modest
One hater for every nigga on it
One day everybody is applauding
The next day you is everybody target
Why bother? why talk to em?
Where God at? I need to call Him
My knees on the ground, Dear Father
Don't let me break, please make me stronger
How much longer, will it linger?
Well my heart is giving will they believe it
When my song is over will they need me?

Wale - Contemplate

Verse of The Day: Blu - Below The Heavens

Somebody once told me that I'm already in hell

Freedoms a state a mind
And just the heart of me's in hell
I free my slave mind so a part of me's in hell
And when it's hard to breathe, a part of me inhale
So pardon me you gotta' try hard to be yourself
'Cause you can't get to heaven being anybody else
And I was raised by a reverend yet the lessons didn't help
I had to get 'em for myself
I was told hell is hot, But had to feel it for myself
So I left home, as a young child smiling as I stepped on
Facing the world but naked, without my weapon
I lost my smile and in exchange, I put a vest on
Now that my premature stress is gone
I got problems to face as a man
I was told you either stand or you fall
As long as you know when you walk you holdin' hands with a god
That alone can turn the dark to a walk in the park
I only talk from my heart so open yours when you listening
Every man has his own heaven the difference is the way that he envision it
So if you make your heaven picture less
By the time you die
You'll be driftin' in an imageless field
So build your heaven full of blessed thoughts
That's real, you can stress it or just let it walk
I got a question if a man can make his own heaven
Can he make his path to get to it too?
I only spit through a truth
And I spit it for the listeners
So I'm spittin' to you

Blu - Below The Heavens

Verse of the Day: Lupe Fiasco - Fighters

Or is it something they can never believe?
Or is it something you can never achieve?
Is it
Beyond your means?
Is it
Inside your dreams?
Can it
Never come out cause it's scared to
Unprepared to
Too worried about the words of the people it's weird to
You don't want them to hear you
You just wish there was a door that would appear that you can go disappear through
Well I'm feeling your pain
I was feeling the same
But I said I'd never feel that again

ACCC Verse of the Day: Asher Roth - Just Listen

I'm here for the, fathers and mothers,
Sisters and brothers,
For the guilty, the innocent, citizens, and the immigrants,
If you ain't listen you missin out
Bear witness to the realist out (I bet they listen now)
If my voice didn't work, but my hands could talk
Would you take the time to see what a def man thought?
I could be alone and homeless
Hurt won't heal, but my cardboard sign so my words are real
Would you stop to drop change? Or stop for a change?
Engage in conversation, and exchange names?
Or maybe you would if my image was a bitch
Big lips and bigger tits show you what real sex is but,
What if I was picked for grave? Sick for days? Aged to be sick with aids?
Would you listen to my story that I swear is touching,
Or just blank stare cause you're scared to touch me?

- Asher Roth: Just Listen
