about
"The Social Network" is a creative track that was inspired by the creative genius of GZA.
GZA cleverness definitely inspires me. "Fame", "Animals", "Labels", and "Publicity" are creative concepts that expanded my mind beyond rhyming about my emcee skills, being saved, etc.
I decided to attack the concept of building a song that includes various Social Networks. I did some research and compiled a list of Social Network sites and went to the work.
I sat on the beat for awhile before coming up with the concept and I am thankful for having the opportunity to finally complete a track with SoulChef. The homie Dj Grazzhoppa blew me away with the scratches that he provided for the track.
If you like this song please share it with your family, friends, foes, etc.
Thank You,
Patrick

[Verse 1]
I'm not worried about a FACEBOOK Like
I'm concerned about what the faces of books look like
So miss me with what you really read
I drop more wisdom than Rev Run's TWITTER feed//
Paleo diet, surviving off meat, I'm a hunter
Drop notes or visual content like TUMBLR
I hope you dig it, what I kick is terrific
Young, black & gifted, born to spit lyrics//
I lot of y'all punch in a song
I got Desire, a Pharoahe, that Monches on arms
You waiting to blow, never shaping the flow,
Your iTunes and video won't be STUMBLED UPON//
I have knowledge, I have to share this, like spare ribs
In this land of make believe I'm the fairest
Plus I cherish, my existence on this Planet Earth
Rapping about Social Networks, check the verse//

[Verse 2]
Allowed in the club it's all love no hand stamp
Interact with artists, I learned this from BANDCAMP
The game is dusty, I'm the swifter, a drifter
P presents powerful pictures through FLICKR//
In this game of who's who's, I provide a new view
The point is to amuse you, like YOUTUBE
Ill with the ink pen, leave the sheet stinking
Meet with businessmen, have you LINKEDIn//
Some want to cypher, some want to MEETUP
I HI-5 the enginner, known to beat the beat up
Bada BING, bada boom, I guess I like to doodle stuff
Get an And 1 from my comment like GOOGLE PLUS//
Pure heart, no need for a sonic diss or chronic hits
Trying to book shows with SONICBIDS
I'm working on videos, using VIMEO
Rapping about Social Networks, check the verse//
