about

This is a remix to a song called 2Have&Not2Hold, which hasn't even been released yet, as it will be part of the highly-anticipated "SpreaDAM!" LP, set to be pressed on vinyl May 6th, 2020.
But since I had the test pressings and an urge to enter uncharted territory, I decided to flip the song in they style of music I've been digging on a lot lately, drum and bass (specifically late 90's stuff) and footwork/juke. While hip hop is my normal bag, this remix turned out quite nice if I must say so. Had an assist from Devon on some of the drum programming, and obviously he made the original beat that I originally rapped over and that I flipped for this remix.
Put on some headphones or turn this shit up to 11 and ride out!

lyrics

I'm a microphone fiend/an addict when I'm at it
Breaking all these fools with my habit when I grab it
Fully automatic, like the weapons used in tragic events, when working magic, think a thousand's what I batted
with runners on the bag, or nobody on base
the pressure doesn't phase me, I don't Cracker Jack the taste
cool cats don't need to hot dog, can't cut the mustard? leave that mayo from the block dog
this is not clogged, we flown' got the pores and pipes right
designs from the lightbright got you going night-night
fools shining on that pyrite
always trust your feelings over eyesight
but you had a good cry right?
underrated, especially for guys like us
who keep it all under the cuff, but once you've had enough, gotta release a little puff of steam
we got dreams to live, we got the means to give it all we got, can't stop the bumrush
keep your cool, don't let your company fun crush
be a diamond in the rough, protect your jewels if they run up
from sun up to moonlight, I'm keeping it tuned right
life aint always warm and fuzzy like a boom mic
It gets cold and heartless for the artist
especially when the hot list is nothing but the thoughtless bullshit
I can't believe that people bought this bullshit
it's to have and not to hold
its too hot to hold so just watch it glow
