Superman Song Of The Week

One of the smartest things I did was to follow my favorite rapper, Kanye West, on twitter... With all the controversy surrounding his behavior, sayings, and lifestyle Kanye was away from the spotlight for quite some time... But he's back and better than ever... He's announced via twitter that he will be releasing a new song every friday stopping on Christmas... It's been dubbed G.O.O.D. (Getting Out Our Dreams) Friday... He stated it's not going to be just his songs but i'm sure he'll be involved with every one he puts out. The first song he released just last night is my Song Of The Week... "Monster" is apparently (Kanye states) the second song from a 5-song collaboration album with fellow rapper Jay-Z... The song not only features them but also Rick Ross (who really isn't needed on the track at all), Bon Iver (an Indie Rock Group) and my new favorite female rapper (Sorry, Eve) Nicki Minaj (She had the best verse on the song)... So here it is ladies & gents:

S.O.T.W.: "Monster" by Kanye West & Jay-Z ft. Rick Ross, Bon Iver, & Nicki Minaj

Best Line: Kanye: "Get that Goose and Malibu, I call it 'MaliBooYa'"
Jay-Z: "Everybody wanna know what my achilles heel is... LOVE! I don't get enough of it"
Nicki: "Hotter than a Middle Eastern climate, Tony Matterhorn... Dutty Wine it"

May 21st: S.O.T.D.

Yes, it's 2 posts for the same day. (It's my birthday and my blog fight me! lol) This song is dedicated to anyone that shares in the same joy that I do on this day. (Happy Birthday Megan!!! http://feliciaellureverna.wordpress.com) It just so happens that one of those people that share the same birthday as me is the artist with Superman's Song of The Day today... Enjoy! and Rest In Peace B.I.G.

May 8th: Heartache

Sorry I'm late with this post... I was a little busy with anger... but I'm sure you can understand why with this song

Best Line: "And my head keeps spinning... I can't stop having this vision... I gotta keep winning"

SOTW (March 22nd-March 28th)

It is time once again for Superman's Song Of The Week. This week's song comes from my favorite rapper (Mr. Kanye West) and my favorite album of his (Graduation). "Everything I Am" is probably the song on the album that best describes me... Nuff Said... "Graduation" was already a personal album I could relate to heavily already. Track 10 was the tip of the iceberg

"Everything I Am" Kanye West
Best Line: "People always sayin what's not for him/ But everything I'm not made me everything I am"

No Remedy For Sickness

I need y'all prayers... My lil bro is sick... Like really ill... It's ridiculous... Almost disgusting... I just watched a recent video he posted of a rehearsal he did and at about the 1:30 mark my nose started running and i coughed a little bit... That's how sick he is on the drums... He's so contagious that after the video was over i felt the urge to hop on the keyboard and learn some new songs... Just to keep up with the "sickness"... This is what happens when you're born of a family of musicians. My girl says we're like a Black Partridge Family... I say we're a unique case and we should all be admitted into hospitals... we've been sick for quite awhile now... Wanna catch what we got?... Be careful, There's no cure

Superman. Out.

JRellz Gettin ILL!

SOTW (March 15th-21st)

I had to work yesterday so i kinda forgot to post the "Song Of The Week". Better late than never right? This week's song is a personal one. Every time I hear this I sing... without fail. Although I'm not the world's greatest singer I still croon along Ryan Leslie on "Guardian Angel". It's personal because it was introduced to me from my girlfriend as "Our Song" (Yeah i know, Vomit) lol I would love to hear this at my wedding one day (far from now) Enjoy!

This is for you Baby Girl

"Guardian Angel" by Ryan Leslie

Best Line: "We'll protect one another, Be good to another, Love one another, Take care of one another"

SOTW (March 8th-14th)

The Song of the Week is "Over" by Drake... The 1st single of his highly-anticipated album "Thank Me Later" is playing everywhere at the moment... & when I say everywhere I MEAN EVERYWHERE... That's the kind of buzz Drake has had for the past year and a half. I do enjoy this song, however I'm afraid "Thank Me Later" will not meet the yearlong hype its been given... I guess we'll have to wait and see... Until then here's:

"Over" by Drake

Best Line: "They treat me like a legend, am I really this cold? I'm really too young to be feeling this old"

J-Rellz Forever

According to my younger sibling Sept. 19th needs to be marked on calendars Worldwide as "Jerel Day". Contrary to his wild semi-self-absorbent belief, March 7th is a day that all need to celebrate. It's the day my little brother was born. Jerel (aka the coolest guy born in the 90s) is a highly talented musician and producer who has been an inspiration to me since he came onto this earth. He has no idea the impact he has had on my life and I greatly appreciate everything he has shown me. Even though, the first maybe 10 years of his life he and I didn't get along too well, Jerel has still taught me how to be a responsible man and how no matter what you gotta love ya family... even if you don't like them sometimes. So with that being said I'd like to say Happy 19th Birthday Jerel. Thanks 4 being the crazy, smart, mean, inspirational person with a sick sense of humor that you are. Lol... Love ya bro! As an ode to "J-Rellz" I'm posting a video of him being my "inspiration"... Since I am his Biggest Fan! This is from 07... One of my favorites... & also a video of Stax N Rellz "bonding" Enjoy! Happy Birthday Jerel! J-Rellz 4EVER!
