Song Review: “Minding My Business” by Vocab Slick | A Hip Hop Discovery

Music Review:
“Το Minding My Business του Vocab Slick στήνει έναν αυτάρεσκο, αλλά όχι ανούσιο μικρόκοσμο, όπου τα φωνητικά κυριαρχούν με αυτοπεποίθηση και κοφτερή άρθρωση. Υπάρχει μια σχεδόν θεατρική ευφράδεια στον τρόπο που ξετυλίγεται ο λόγος, κρατώντας την ένταση σταθερά σε υψηλά επίπεδα. Η μελωδία υπαινίσσεται περισσότερο απ’ ό,τι αποκαλύπτει, δημιουργώντας μια αίσθηση υπόγειου μυστηρίου, ενώ ο ρυθμός μετατοπίζεται διακριτικά, διατηρώντας μια συνεχή εγρήγορση. Είναι ένα κομμάτι που δεν ζητά προσοχή αλλά την απαιτεί.”

Lyrics of Vocab Slick – Minding My Business
———-1st verse
She gave me Alabama Shakes
In Carolina blue denim –
Purple marijuana grown in California
Got the crew lifted-
Bitches trippin on me
I’m just sipping hibiscus Minding my bidness-
attempt to intimidate
get a shortcut to transition – 4
Fam listen campus is
Closed til further notice-
I’m Done teaching weirdos
no Explanation or focus-
Exterminators here
And there’s plenty rats and roaches-
We clearing out all basements
closets and corners Take notice- 8
Look I’m cold as Nova Scotia
Or a Minnesota vacation-
Better pack yo Patagonia
get prepared for the elevation-
air is thinner at this height
And I understand if yall can’t make it-
Cuz Most don’t have the heart ta fight When life hits hard as
pavement – 12
Face it it’s rare to radiate greatness
Most live predicated-
On what they wish they had and
not the strength to obtain it-
I came with the gift ta make Art from language-
And Pull beauty from anguish
still 6 degrees
Seperated from famous
** *hook***
Yall did it
Yall went and woke a monsta-
Godzilla vs Mothra
The Original Slick Talker-
This my life 365
No breaks or crash outs –
If it wasn’t for the craft
Then I would prolly have a mask out
—————— 2nd verse
I push a peddle
Like I’m chasing after lost time-
105 on the 5
I keep a red line-
Tires chirpin workin
Every angle just ta stay a live-
The futures in the distance
I Can’t let it slip or fly by-
This the main line
Every day it’s hard time –
The devil throwing gang signs
I keep praying that he take 5-
I Take time when stakes high
Ta speak clear Hi Fi-
Design a rhyme
Like I’m trying ta make the song cry- 8
Yall got the Wrong guy
Im frustrated long sigh-
The games twisted
It won’t ever get my tongue tied-
Corny rappers cappin
Yall should probly win a grand prize-
Competition’s fierce
at the level yall been telling lies-
I push a feature
Forward like the belly of a over eater-
Putting numbers
On the board hear em cheering from the bleachers –
Next plays a easy score
I won’t let em try and cheat ya-
Cuz Most Y’all good at lying
like J Stan’s Denying either-
** *hook***
Yall did it
Yall went and woke a monsta-
Godzilla vs Mothra
The Original Slick Talker-
This my life 365
No breaks or crash outs –
If it wasn’t for the craft
Then I would prolly have a mask out
