Essence of Storytelling (Chris Brown Rap)

Hey check out my words, titled Essence of Storytelling:


I’ll say it once again I’m the solid form of ether/
So clutch around the “Mike” I started calling myself Steve Kerr/
Black Dustin Beiber/Excuse me, Justin Beiber/
Either way they download me, like Adobe Reader/
This is what the young kids like to call “Swag Rapping”/
I can do it all baby this is just multitasking/
If the beat so far gone, you get the Best I Ever Had/
Or if it’s slow, I pick and roll, like you decided to play the Jazz/
You get the analogy? I really hope you got it/
I pay attention to detail: t’s crossed, I dotted/
Swag rapping is cool, but not always compelling/
Which is why this Slick Rick learned the Art of Storytelling/
Every once in a while, it can come in handy/
Like you see a pretty lady, and you want to talk fancy/
For instance, I met a Jersey girl who had an R&B preference/
So when I was spitting “G”, I would make a song reference/
She really really liked Chris Brown/
To that I said, “Excuse Me Miss, I’d love to Take You Down”/
She said, “Yeah 3X,” and gave me a Kiss Kiss to end it all/
Lips so luscious, I got weak in the knees; I had to Crawl/
Shorty had it all; Great body, cool chick/
Respect for herself, so she ain’t take “No Bull…”
I really loved that girl, but I was Mars and she was Venus/
So we split and everyone rapped about it…Deuces remix.
Swag rapping…story telling/
Do the Dr. Scholl’s: Let it start gelling/
Begin the unveiling/
Best of both worlds/
Variety: Now that’s one pretty pearl.

Choose Your Artist- Ron Isley vs Charlie Wilson

As a youth my uncle, the late Marvin Hawkins, would foster my love of reading and basketball by giving me his collection of a little known magazine named Basketball Digest. The book contained great articles, stats, and previews of NBA teams and players. My favorite segment of the magazine however was titled "One on One". The segment compared NBA players past or present against each other. It took the talks from barbershops, cookouts, and old men playing chess and provided a grading system to validate naming one player over the other. Today, we take this great concept and transfer it to the world of music. In this new segment "Choose Your Artist", artists from various eras are pitted against their peers, their new age renditions, and even themselves to determine who music stars are the best of the best!  Throughout the 70s and 80s, The Isley Brothers and Gap Band lavished us with incredible music. Songs like "That Lady (Part 1)", "Summer Breeze...

The Nice Guy Rules

"Nice guys finish last." What a hogwash statement. Seriously; it's baloney, maybe even pastrami. Through entertainment, business, and romance, the belief is that a man with etiquette and morals is one with diseases, like the measles or swine flu. When you turn on your television or read your news...kindle, you witness arrogant, womanizing egomaniacs praised as charismatic men with undeniable "swagger". Men who are interested in helping others and making people enjoy themselves are undervalued. The result is young men trying too hard. These men, known as "Nice Guys", are seen as sweet people who are great to know and make you laugh, but are OFTEN over looked for men who...use less effort to receive approval. As a teen and in my early college years, I played into this. It's such a weird feeling; you become enamored with doing right by people, as if it determines whether people will like you. Half the time, if you are "too" nice, peo...

Ooh Yeah! Channeling Your Inner R&B Singer

When I retire from the television and film industry, I've decided to record an album as an R&B artist. Initially my plan was to form a group with Devyn and Garvin. We would kill "em", but I've seen every episode of Unsung and I don't want us to go out like The Temptations or Five Heartbeats. My aspirations may seem outlandish, but those familiar with the powers of rizzle and bizzle (rhythm and blues) understand the benefit of exercising your musical talent. History shows that there is a long standing intimate connection between women and singers. From Ron Isley to R. Kelly, Otis Redding to Omarion ( "Touch" O, not Maybach O), Rhythm and Blues crooners leave a special effect on the ladies, one CGI can't replicate.  As a young buck, wet behind the ears and seeking...the ladies, this fact did not sneak past me.  Let's not forget that my moniker "Ceddy P" is derived from the original drawers dropper, Teddy Pendergrass . In my brie...
