I’m constantly listening to music. Whether its while I’m doing homework, studying, watching the game, or just relaxing. I listen to many genres including; rap, hip-hop, R&B, house music, dubstep and a little bit of everything else. Out of all those genres, hip-hop is my favorite. Unlike many people think, it’s different than rap. Hip-hop is about taking poetry, or meaningful lyrics and putting it to a beat, and adding a rhythm to the lyrics. Hip-hop is meant to connect with people more than rap is. Anyway, heres my playlist (some won’t publish to the spotify playlist because they are local files):

Feet Don’t Fail Me Now- B.O.B and T.I. I chose this song because I’ve overcome just about every struggle that has come my way. My feet didn’t fail me.
Dream Chasin- Chiddy Bang. This song applies to almost everybody. Everyone has a dream of what they want to be or do in the future, and every day leading up to that point they are chasing dreams.
Slippin- DMX. This song describes me because in all honesty, I’ve made mistakes in my life, some big, some little, and have felt like there was no coming back from some of those mistakes.
Ambition- Wale. This song is perfect for me because it shows no matter what you go through in life, if you have strong ambition, nothing can stop you from achieving you’re dreams.
Michael Jordan- Kendrick Lamar. Everyone has that moment where they think they’re better than everyone else. I used to think that a lot, but then I realized that it wasn’t true, and everyone should be viewed as equals.
Battle Scars- Guy Sebastian & Lupe Fiasco. I chose this song because there are some rough patches in life that you never forget; everyone has their fair share.
So Original- Cyhi The Prynce. This song is on the playlist because I believe I’m different than most people, no two people are the same; everyone has their little quirks.
Slow Down- Chiddy Bang.
Celebrate- Common.
Slow Down and Celebrate, go hand in hand with eachother. Slow down says how you should take life slow and enjoy every moment that you have. Celebrate is about how you should celebrate whenever you get the chance, even for the smallest thing in life.
What If- Jadakiss & Nas. This is probably the most important song on this list. Everyone’s life is made up of “What If” moments like; “What if I took High School more seriously?”, “What if my future plans don’t pan out?”. You only find out the answer to these questions when you take the time when you’re older, and look back on your life.
