Wrapping Things Up

 Typing this good word like I was writing software or code!! plus playing the piano, like I was in a lounge in Las Vegas; we're trying to send messages...

Wrapping things up at on this June 30th, the end of the month; check the scenario, intergalactic / retro-futuristic;  my soul goes back to before the middle passages....

Bubble wrapping these hot messages dropped by O-Zone; known throughout the galaxy,  plus O-Dog drops funk after building with  Extra Terrestrials on other planets;  these brothas are also known in the hood....

Providing answers for the question that was asked; this funk and good word is what's good...

Encouraging the massive while others are distracted and act passive!!  knowing Republicans would knock the hustle!! Donald Trump trotted out as a spokesman?

What's up man? some are caught up in red tape or caught up in the system / matrix!! soon surrounded by yellow crime scene tape!! it's no joke man..

Check out the rest of this article at Random Thoughts From A Brotha: Wrapping Things Up

They Weren't Trying To Play Fair

Life Goes On;  it doesn't quit and it doesn't stop!! but the devil and his advocates stay busy!! those folk won't let you rest..

The toil and strife goes on; it's out of control!!  ear shattering gunshots exploded!! snipers we're on top of the building taking shots at this player!!  damn!! I was just trying to chill / trying to test..

The melting pot continues to boil!! but Swiper was still swiping even though Dora told him not to!! he wasn't stopping or yielding, now banks in Greece will go under!!

Now the Greek will default on loans; please!! in the meantime and between time O-Dog will adjust bass, treble and tones!! but not on the radar, more like under!!

O-Zone? he wasn't at ease!! I wasn't in Black Greek fraternities plus I didn't answer to the Worshipful Master at the Masonic Lodge, so felonious accusations are met!! they want to see me go under!! accused of being *Armed and Dangerous* by the thought and fashion police!!
 
Left the danger zone!! I found realms, portals and dimensions that we're open; I'm trying to get open like Steph Curry in the playoffs shooting threes!!

Knowing how the sport goes!! I didn't have a suit on with hard bottoms; wearing K-Swiss, old thrift store Roca-Wear jeans, plus I had a Louisville Cardinal jersey on..

But like Louisville playing Kentucky at Rupp Arena I knew these jokers weren't trying to play fair!! as I go there, on Candler Road in Decatur I ran into young "sport" he was like Young Jeezy, but for East Orange, New Jersey he "put it on"..

O-Zone? I'm writing this good word like software!! so what's up? check the codes, symbols, fragments, but I realize *everybody ain't able* the system had some minds stagnant!! they couldn't go with this workflow..

These brothas are Going In; actually we're in it now, up to our necks!! Win or Lose?  We're Going for what we know...

We know that these jokers won't play fair!! some even show their hands in this card game like Donald Trump!! but in the end we prevail..

We  continue to go there!! O-Dog will bring the beats that thump; O-Zone? I'll have a story to tell....

Azymuth / Mimosa

Sunday Jazz Continues! we're checking out this latin jazz, Brazilian jazzdance, jazzfunk from Azymuth with a track called Mimosa.  Let's Go!!


 

Slow Down Son!! Your Killing Them!!

They told me to slow down son!! your killing them!! “said I couldn’t stand the heat” like that joint I heard on Kiss 104 in Atlanta by Loose Ends…

I Told them; “they should know how Brotha O gets down.”  I’m *Moving At A High Velocity* please!! these folks will have you “Hanging On A String” by who? Loose Ends!!

Previous episodes in life? a lot of loose ends, fragments, breaks, bad breaks, setbacks!! damn!! I had to let go!! I had too much baggage..

Easy to get fragged..like it was Afghanistan / Pakistan/ Iraq / Somalia!!  but from Ferguson to Baltimore to even Charleston  they’ll get foul with ya!!  we’re all up in the spot where *Reason Gave Way To Madness*

Back with this!! I never bragged or boasted, but I got roasted by these comedians!!  some of it was personal, I told you they want me to slow down!!  some can’t catch what they can’t understand..

High Velocity with the speed you need!!  but some want to catch me out there by the border like David Sweat up in New York!! they want me to take it down a thousand..Check out the rest of this article at.. Slow Down Son!! Your Killing Them!! | Whats Really Going On?

BreakBeat Scientific / Doing What We Do PT.4

 BreakBeat Science is in full effect!! we're doing what we do!! *Broken Beats and English*  is the basis..

We're writing this code like it was software!! we're representing the indigenous!! broken minds / hearts / spirits;  feeling the pain and anguish!! how can they face this?

We're not soft as we go there!! still following the street code,  knowing what the deal is dealing with these Hunger Games Peacekeepers!! demerits issued / charges will get trumped up..

Not like Donald Trump vs Mexicans; the status? Univision is through dealing with him!! it's like hearts or spades; the trump cards? beats will get drummed up...

My cousin Donald started this; sounds thumped due to the basement full of vinyl records;plus I did the knowledge /  I summed up the consequences..

Jazz, funk, rock and soul is how I would roll; like tourists in Tunisia or victims at the Taiwan water park fire!!  I refuse to be a victim of circumstances..

Check out the rest of this article at  Random Thoughts From A Brotha: BreakBeat Scientific / Doing What We Do PT.4

It's Going Down / Somebody Has To Show You

It's going down!! thoughts are collected like bill collectors sweating the massive, now I'm ready to deliver this rebuttal...

It's going down!! I'm ready to run plays like the Golden State Warriors, plus I'm a veteran in the game now coaching like Steve Kerr!! there are no armchair quarterbacks in the huddle...

It's going down!!  what it do? of course these spiritual warriors will face opposition!! that lying devil and his advocates stay busy!!

They come in all shapes and forms!! preachers, politicians and businessman wear the devil's advocates uniform!! I call them new type gangsters, real ones know what the deal is!!

Back in the day? up in Louisville / Newburg I learned what the real was!  The Checker Cab was like a fast truck!! a brotha was moving at a High Velocity but I had the speed you need!! I stayed one step ahead of old and new type gangsters trying to make a fast buck!! now knowledge is sprayed...

Retro-futuristic but not back in the way;  check out of these  lab techniques!! this good word is dropped like Shusei Nagaoka illustrations on Earth Wind and Fire albums!! plus the piano and drum is played....

Plus I prayed; *That's The Way I Make It*  please!!  English teachers are mad as I ask where you at? ecological ignorance will alter the fate!! like Tunisia the environment is hostile...

Positive or negative with this? thought and fashion police considered it  Hazardous Material.!! please!!! it's not considered a hot style...

*We Rebuke The Hostile Takeover*  .....it's like New York Knicks pursuing  DeAndre Jordan to improve their defense!! or like Mississippi against same sex marriage!! some cats are in need of an extreme makeover!!  instead of trying to build they want to destroy...

Pondered the *Dark Mystery of Time and Space*  but now back down to earth after the mothership landed like the SpaceX rocket that exploded in Florida!! but we've got more for ya!!  sonic weapons we'll deploy....

History is in the making!! samples, pianos, the drum and this Good Word are used...

*Somebody Has To Show You*  what it do!! otherwise?  the wise and otherwise will try to have you confused..

Crisis Management PT.3 (Dealing With The Madness)

Going in / getting it in; this is crisis management, but as soon as we enter attack zones, like Richard Matt shot up in New York ear shattering gunshots exploded..

*Ain't nothing nice* about this, so how will we manage it? Fighting back with the Sonic Assault; O-Zone might sing Amazing Grace like Obama while  O-Dog brought the drum;  to the sound he's devoted..

O-Zone voted on putting messages in the songs;  the measure passed like Obama's Pacific Rim trade bill!!

Playing keyboards!! Yamaha pianos / typing this on IBM / HP keyboards;  BreakBeat Science?  that's what we came back with!! some know the deal!!

Plus I brought my drums; it's my way of *Dealing With The Madness*  somebody has to show you....

I was all up in the spot where *Reason Gave Way To Madness*  but I left those premises!! somebody told me to succeed, they said some one has to know you!!

....But somebody has to know what your going through per this crisis!!  when I was posted up the arch nemesis was back on the premises plus he invited his friends!! they wanted to see me come undone!!

Elections are just around the corner!! Republican candidates make empty promises plus the apparatus makes us jump through hoops!! but we fight back with funky loops; O-Dog had to pull out the drum...

On the frontlines?  we deploy troops to fight this spiritual warfare; this is part of our crisis management! what it do? what it does? we had to Roll Up With A Small Army....

"Spotted the rockets red glare" what it do? what it does? "bombs burst in the air" like gunfire in Charleston churches, we see how they'll work this!! no justice no peace? we had to learn the hard way...

Old dude said *Play On Player*  that was my orientation per Louisville / Newburg default settings! but I had to learn the hard way; dealing with the wise / otherwise?  *You'll Get Played*

Gamblers Are Out For A Fast Buck...they'll make a pile of money off you...mentioned in my Chronicles..knowledge was sprayed..

The Situation Is Critical / Out Of Control

 The situation was *Out Of Control*   I was *Going In* but ear shattering gunshots exploded..

I tried to get away!!  but the battery was dead in the old school Oldsmobile Delta 88; damn!! the cables were corroded..

I tried to run a play like armchair quarterbacks!! thought I had Delta Force types rolling up on Bin Laden but we were just a bunch of busters! we even got on the bus / rode it / the 86 Lithonia like OutKast talked about!! but you've heard the cliche!! they'll throw you under the bus...

It's not Thursday but we've got drama throwbacks from Ferguson / Baltimore to Charleston South Carolina; what's the slogan? no peace / no justice....

Pardon me!! damn!! I've got it backwards!!  it's no justice no peace!!  but same sex marriage proponents will think otherwise..

Meanwhile some are starting with me!! some said I was hustling backwards!! they're trying to sweat me and my peeps with deadlines and timeframes!! who was it? it was the wise and otherwise!!

Life Goes On / We'll Keep Running This Marathon PT.2

We're dipping down I-20 in Atlanta!! soon in Decatur on Glenwood Road where Dekalb Police kept an eye on questionable characters; in love or war who's fair with it? You'll Get Played;

Who'll understand a brotha? ignoring a hater because I've been hood!! but questions get answered as I get breakbeat scientific!!  knowledge sprayed

....Did the knowledge; others played around with it like New York Knicks in the NBA draft while we were  *Observing The Scene*  soon Ready To Roll, I'm On My Way..

Good mileage is gotten on the Mothership!! success? I knew how it would work;  realized that it's on me..

Of course, a brotha gets scientific after being sloppy and dirty with it!! *It'll Be A Bit Messy* please!! Life is like that, but it goes on!! expect turmoil..

Of course,  a fanatic will hustle block like killing tourists in Tunisia, but even though we aren't at ease we anticipate a bumper crop; it's planted in fertile soil..

Life goes on!! we keep running this marathon!! chilling out per Outback Chronicles listening to Night in Tunisia by Dizzy Gillespie...

Life goes on!! we keep running this marathon!! soon naysayers said those cats are Going All Out!! but I keep my guard up; on this earth? I know there's no rest for me!!

The toil and strife goes on; after the next episode? we're heard saying *Once Again It's On* but there's *Spiritual Significance In This Operation*

Fighting Back in this danger zone!!  this is the by-product of when we we're *Caught Up In An Unpleasant Situation*

Mass confusion and frustration are the order of the day;  some will be caught out there like Richard Matt up in New York!! in that road? we'll come to a fork!! but Life Goes On!!! we'll keep running this marathon!!

We kept winning / losing; it got lonely out there, but we kept on running!!

 It's rough out here in the Babylon Wilderness!! some know what the deal is!!  but a lot of my folk are lost..

...in the darkness; I had to go in, I wear the *Hard Hat With The Lantern On Top*  as work was put in blue collar style, this brotha was paying the cost..

Hillary Clinton said she had a plan for ya!!   Bobby Jindal, Doug Christie and other Republicans like Donald Trump line up to rebuke her; check out the  chaos and mayhem.

Meanwhile per George Clinton scientific studies  O-Dog has a jam for ya!!  what it do? per beats that thump BreakBeat Science is what he's playing..

Meanwhile O-Zone has this manisfesto for you!! the opposite of Dylanns Roof's / we rebuke George Zimmerman types!!  the drama is local, national, international and intergalactic!! cruising in the Mothership provided proof!!  but agencies think they spotted me;  Out There.

Had to admit;  I am Outside The Box!! but I mentioned I'm Going In, but others made it hot for me!! I know life is not fair..

We're out in the mainstream of mathematics doing the mathematics!! we're figuring out the equation...

Who's on your team, just a bunch of fanatics? at the end of the day? check out the drama!!  through pleasure or pain they're architects of the instigation..

Who's measuring with the same gauge? numbers are probably off by more than six degrees of separation..

Life Goes On!!  soon we hit the critical stage of development, who's bearing witness to confusion and frustration?

Life Goes On!!  my mind will engage like Twitter vs Bobby Jindal!!  my finances are like Arrested Development's Mr. Wendal!!  they already call me a hot mess..

Life Goes On!!  this is word from a don't stop get it getter!! I pulled out the good word and the drum after I was put to the test..

No rest for a brotha!!  from Charleston to Baltimore / Ferguson don't you see how it's working? No Justice No Peace was the catch phrase!!  plus we heard We Shall Overcome Like The Negro Spiritual..

Haters will try to front; what are they starting?  when we respond with this breakbeat science they're saying what we bring is Hazardous Material..

What we have is spiritual, but we're still under attack like Syria dealing with the Islamic State... 

What it do? life goes on but the toil and strife goes on too!!per Dylann Roof, George Zimmerman and Darren Wilson types we still deal with the hate!!

What it do? life goes on!! it's not too late, as long as we have breath we keep running this marathon!!

What it do? life goes on!! haters will still debate like Republicans vs Obamacare, but we still take it there!! once again it's on!!

Reality Checks : My Method Of Payment | Whats Really Going On?

Whatcha Know? I thought I told you it’s rough out here!!  Reality Checks are my method of  payments

My reality? like Slick Rick / Doug E Fresh O-Dog is cashing checks and making sound effects; staying a step ahead of Hunger Games Peacekeepers trying to avoid arraignments..

Arrangements made with slick lawyers?  Rick Ross is going to need one, out in Evander Holyfield’s old house trying to get slick..

Rain gets heavy during the storm; the reign began with a drizzle, but I’m not trying to get sick..

The pain gets heavy!! due to previous episodes I’m trying to heal scars!! at the end of the day? some know the dizzle after somebody lied..

No divorce from reality is granted!! please!! don’t get Judge Judy started!! request denied…

Outback Chronicles / The Summer Solstice Edition

 Outback; I'm out on my deck chilling out!! saying prayers!! God's will is done on Earth as it is in Heaven per Matthew 6:10!! but don't get me started preaching....

Aura now has many layers; told haters to pump their brakes like Bendix!! now like on I-20 in Atlanta tires are screeching!!!

Peeping game; spotted the Cardinal on the fence reminding me of Louisville, this is real!! I'm not trying to play!!

Not sleeping in the game even though I'm out here in a relaxed mood; soon sending the masses food per these *Messages In The Songs*  using pianos, samples, drums, etc!! letting  you know about these jokers that are out of control!! ear shattering gunshots exploded!! some ran this way and that way!!

Outback contemplating / reflecting; who ran that play? like Seattle in the  Super Bowl with interceptions or others running up in the middle of the line for a no-gainer..

Outright hating due to Deflategate? Tom Brady vs Roger Goodell? some fail, but this brotha dipped down the sidelines untouched; it was a no brainer..

That’s Where They Lost Me PT.8 (Now I’m Holding On)

*I hear chain saws underneath this limb I’m holding on*

Hanging On A String, like that joint from Loose Ends I heard on KISS 104 here in Atlanta…

Hanging On A Limb!!  Morris Day and The Time’s Oaktree? I hear buzz saws!! is this the end for a brotha??

Once hanging out with them or those players that played on, but this is where they lost me; a hater even  plans to call the search off!!  Lord Have Mercy!!!!

Just Trying To Hold On!!  just trying to maintain!!  like Obama with his trade bill I’m trying to find somebody to work with me…

What’s really going on? I heard the belligerence  as the South debates the Confederate flag, but some are sold on it due to heritage; so who will inherit the throne??

Intergalactic Drama  , local, national, international; on all fronts? another fronts, they were agents of the Federation!!  meanwhile I search for the perfect beat like Afrika Bambaataa and the Soul Sonic Force; adjusting bass, treble and tone…

BreakBeat Scientific With It / Doing What We Do PT.2

 Welding torch used to spark this!!  I put the helmet on, now repairs are made...

Blue Collar / Mechanical Engineering to Rebuke the Social Engineering, after truths or dares were made..

Breakbeat scientific with it; Clearing the cache!!  Clear like Cybotron!! not drinking that "clear" like football and baseball players...

Doing What I Do!! I was just taking old dudes advice!! he said to Play On Players..

Doing What We Do! but in Babylon? It's easy to get played!!  like in Charleston, the home of racism the situation is out of control!! per Dylann Roof? ear shattering gunshots exploded...

It's easy to get sprayed in the drive by; *The Situation Is Out Of Control*  plus bankers provide proof as they crush the American Dream; will they help or has benevolence eroded?

The I-20 Chronicles; We're Still Riding Out

We're still riding out!! you can spot me dipping down I-20 in Atlanta, the saga / struggle continues...

Riding out in the hooptie, usually spotted where the truth will be!! I'll get here like Brenda Russell,  even if I have to get on the MARTA train at the Indian Creek station; the saga / struggle continues!!

Peeping game; will the truth be revealed like Charlie Hustle aka Pete Rose placing bets? history repeats, am I riding The Soul Train like Don Cornelius?  or is this Party Train like The Gap Band?

Please!! it's all game!! it's rough out here!! Dylann Roof types are in more than just Charleston knocking hustles , eating Burger King after dirty deeds were perpetrated!! please!! my peeps have been hated!! we need to close the gap man!!

Please!! it's all game!!  politicians will skate on you like an Olympian!!  those jokers are Shady Like Grady..

Shady Characters; old dude asked, could he get a witness? I stepped up after the system played me..

Who's fair with this? we should know the rules in love or war!! who's trying to fight the coach like Sean Diddy Combs did?

I was rolling on the 86 Lithonia bus out here on the East Side but it's easy to get thrown under the bus; no peace or justice!! I'm chilling out in the HoneyComb HideOut kid!!

Laying in the cut; Observing The Scene / now I'm Ready To Roll; I'm ready to rideout!! I'm on my way..

I'm not playing around with the corrupt!! I didn't roll like that when I was dipping down I-20!!

Knowing the system will test me; war crimes committed per launching offensives like in the Gaza Strip?

But there's Spiritual Significance In This Operation; knowledge I'll continue to flip..

Random Thoughts From A Brotha: Instrumental Hip Hop Summer Mix ♫ Chill Compilation 10

The I-20 Chronicles: Please!! They Still Had Us Coming and Going

 It's going down!! oh!! it's business as usual!! I'm still dipping down I-20 in Atlanta!

It's going down!! per Dylann Roof manisfestos society will still act brand new with a ya!!  they'll even try to attack this brotha!! 

They said I was acting arrogant and aloof!! these manisfestos were considered spam by the thought and fashion police!!

I truth or dared it!! integalactic with it!! avoiding Federation stormtroopers, Hunger Game Peacekeepers and since I'm out here on I-20 in Atlanta? the Dekalb Police...

Due to karma? some will get what's coming to them, so I'm cutting folks some slack; I realize the only perfect entity is God...

It might alarm ya but they had us all coming and going!! meanwhile in the lab? O-Dog will break or cut up the track!! who will work with this squad?

Not the norm / something odd? that's how they played O-Zone even after these scattered and jumbled thoughts are collected..

Not in the storm? please!! spotting the Confederate flag flying in South Carolina is like raindrops falling on my head per BJ Thomas; disrespected...

Plus it's not warm!! new Ice Age? please!! who's fair with it? they've got us all coming and going!!  during the Critical Stage?  I'll pull the plug on it..

Straight from the outlet!! out of the wall!!! maybe like Michael Jackson off the wall with it...

Straight from the outlet store up on I-85 in Commerce after I took a detour from I-20!! not playing with much money so I'm rocking South Pole jeans, a Beverly Hills Polo Club Shirt and some scuffed up Timberlands..

Dipping down I-20 in Atlanta, still transmitting live!! not in the game trying to out score the opponent!!  I'm just laying back observing the scene; From Charleston to NYC /  Chicago to Detroit / From Ferguson to Baltimore the economy has turned cities into the new Western badlands..
