About “Child of Kings”

Child of Kings is actually the last track I finished for my Track Every Other Day Challenge – It’s a short and quick rap song like the others in that series. It uses a Three-Six Mafia beat I found in one of these instrumental collections. It’s one song that I was actually really proud of…why? I dunno, but I sure as hell like playing it. Maybe you will too.

Lyrics for “Child of Kings”

I am not the child of kings
I’m more like the son of Kong
I detest those that arrest
I respect a person’s calm

I don’t preach for anarchy
I’m more the type to say salaam
Reject my peace then feel the heat
Leave nothing left to be embalmed

This is not the greatest storm
This is not the biggest bomb
I am like a Saiyan nigga
This is not my final form

I transform, be forewarned
Power up then get it on
Violence comes before reform
That is where my word is born

I can’t break it, word is bond
I can make it, come along
We can take it, make it ours
Turn it to another song

I can’t break it, word is bond
I can make it, come along
We can take it, make it ours
Turn it to another song

They frontin’ and they owe you dough
Hit em with the okie-doke
They nothing, everybody knows
They bullies lookin’ for a show

Hit em with the Obi Wan
Show them hoes you got the glow
Times is different, different flow
But same old bull from long ago

These youngins think they moving fast
But they brains be moving slow
They quick to shoot, quick to stab
But slow to see where they can go

They fill they cups with bitter woe
Fill they nose with candy blow
They get hyped up until the point
They can’t distinguish friend from foe

I can’t break it, word is bond
I can make it, come along
We can take it, make it ours
Turn it to another song

Been Spittin

So, I was getting ready to try recording some new rap music for the first time in like…half a year. Just wanted to do a quick track to see how it sounds in this new room…but then it dawned on me that I never posted the last coupla tracks I did several months ago.

So I figured I’d post those first before testing my equipment. This first one is called “Been Spittin” and the next one, which I will put into a separate post, is called “Child of Kings” – Both of these tracks have been in my reverbnation playlist, but as they are content, they belong here as well. I believe I used them both for my short lived Track Challenge, may it rest in peace. So this represent both the Track Challenge tracks and the Practice Words Mixtape.

Been Spittin – Produced by Big B on SoundCloud

This is another track that belongs in the Big B Presents category. I believe he wanted to do something with the Saw theme and didn’t realize at the time that everybody and they mama had already sampled the hell out of it. He went on to make the beat anyway, and I, of course, rhymed over it.

I’ll come back and add lyrics or more info if I should find the time and the gumption, or if anybody should request em.

Car Windows – Track Challenge 04

This is the fourth track of my “A Track Every Other Day Challenge” -It was due last night and I actually finished it in time somewhat, just didn’t get a chance to post it here till today –

It’s a little bit of rap music called “Car Windows.” And I admit that it came out a bit sloppy and slurred, I was rushing…and drinking, but as I keep telling you, don’t take these tracks too seriously. These are just practice words.

Next track is due by midnight this saturday

Fade to Gray – Track Challenge 03

This is the third track of my “A Track Every Other Day Challenge” – This one was actually somewhat on time – I posted it on FaceBook but didn’t make the blog post at the time.

It’s a little piece of rap music called “Fade to Black” – I liked where I was going with it. I may come back and make a full song of it someday – Unfortunately, quite a few artifacts (popping, clicking, distortions etc) made it into my mix. I wasn’t going to release it at all…but like I say every post, don’t take these tracks too seriously. I’m just experimenting 🙂 These are just practice words.

Silk – Track Challenge 01

Silk by SB

This is the first track of my “A Track Every Other Day Challenge” – yea, it was due yesterday, but I didn’t get a chance to post it up. Figured I’d use these tracks to experiment. This is me attempting a quicker flow…I stumble a bit. Oddly, now that I got it recorded and I know it, I think I can do it much better. If you’re following along, the next track is due tomorrow! Don’t take these tracks too seriously. These are just practice words.

A Track Every Other Day Challenge

As if I didn’t have enough to do, I wanted to also give myself an extra challenge. Nothing crazy, just a track a day. I wanted to make one new track a day, everyday for a month. However, after looking at my time constraints, I turned it into 1 new track every other day. It starts today and a track is due tomorrow.

I invited people to join me on this, cuz stuff like this sucks when you do it alone. And the invitation is still open.

From my Twitter:

@SilencioBarnes SilencioBarnes

I need a productive challenge, but I don’t wanna do it alone – who wants to go track for track – one new song a day for a month? – 2 Oct

@SilencioBarnes SilencioBarnes

So nobody was down to do the song a day challenge with me 🙁 Guess I’ll do it alone. Might just be a quick 16 but every day, something new – 12 Oct

Two people said they will do this with me so far, and I will link them daily as long as they keep doing it. Each time I make a new post for each new track, I’ll link theirs too. If you wanna join in, then feel free! Leave a comment here to let me know or drop me a message on twitter or facebook or something.

Rules:

A track every other day. By track I mean pretty much anything. It doesn’t have to be a full song, it doesn’t have to be any particular genre, could just be some experimental stuff. Just record something, whether it be studio or on your phone.

You must put it online some sort of way. Doesn’t matter how. Just so long as it can be linked to and heard.

That’s it…sooooo…Who’s With Me?!?!?!?
