LYRICS BY: CHANCE THE RAPPER
We celebrate 2015’s Hip Hop and how it got us drunk on the possibilities of ourselves. If only we weren’t dancing our way to oblivion. Fucking our way into the pants of a multitude and slipping into solo sheets. Or cleaning up blood on the sink after we roared at the world as some kinda lonely god. Hip hop is the new poetry and it spoke brutal enlightenment to us in each drip, drop of acid rain rhyming.
This is 41 tracks in two sections from two voices (Senior Editor Kavi and Staff Writer Brendon Goldwasser). Hip hop is all about the power source fueled by collabs and so are we here at The Sights and Sounds.
Here’s a tab of acid for your ear
You’re the plastic
I’m the passion and the magic in the air
