#16to100realquick

[rjpesquire]

On haitus now but for the past year I've been recording series on Instagram called #16to100realquick. It's a series where I write an original rap to each of @complex magazines 100 greatest hip-hop beats of all time. I started doing it as a way to pass the time and stay in practice when I was in Florida looking after my mom last year. It was perfect for me because I'm such a snob so of course it only felt worth my time if I was writing to "he greatest beats of all time." As of now I've done just about 40 of them and I'm really proud of these raps. I really pushed myself to not just write a rap, but really dig deep and respond to the unique challenge each beat offered, and I think many of these raps are witty, funny, personal, and layered. They're all on Instagram. Click on this hashtag #16to100realquick and they all should pop up. Check them out if you like poetry or hip-hop at all. And feel free to leave comments cuz I'm an artist and I'm sensitive about my shit, as @erykahbadu said. Someday when I get a new computer I'll finish this series and if @complex is smart we'll do something with it. #bars #barfest #lyricist #dope #rapper #illmatic #nasty #flames #hiphop #fortheculture #battlerap #talkingshit #brooklyn #freestyle #hot16 #BlackGodPantheon (at Complex)

And now for something completely different... me rockin w/ our music director of WHAT SHOULD BE THE FEAR, the genius @omarhaddadmusic! This is us in action. All the songs in the show are original but don't expect ur regular Shakespearean one-man musical about a 4000 mile bike tour. Hip-hop ain't nuthin but Rock & Roll.

Was a busy week and didn't get any #16to100realquick verses out but I'm really proud of the last rap I did to Luchini by Camp Lo, so here is a spoken-word version. I hope it does you some good. #BlackGodPantheon #tellthetruth #hiphop #bars #poetry #spokenword #slampoetry #lyrics #honesty #rigoroushonesty #helivesinhisownheart #slingblade #rap #camplo #luchinipouringfromthesky
