Question.

What kind of song would you write if you were pissed off or concerned about someone you loved and cared for? Would it be loud, raw and feature a crazy azz guitar solo? Would you grab BigMulley so he could provide a few witty rhymes of encouragement? Would you proudly kick the traditional song structure out the window?

I Did. It’s called ‘Best4u‘ and it’s unlike anything you’re prob accustomed to. Sometimes you just gotta let it out, man. And don’t you dare listen at low volume…

Best4U

Produced, Written & Performed by Vumiko
Rap by BigMulley

Lyrics:

(verse 1)

I only want the best for you
Baby don’t you understand?

I only want the best for you
Girl you need another man

He’s playin’ tricks to mess with you
That’s somethin’ that I just can’t stand

I only want the best for you
Girl you need another man
Yeah, you do

(guitar solo)

(spoken break)

Listen
You deserve to be loved more
And you deserve to be adored
You deserve… love, more

(rap)

Give me your ears, so I can open your eyes
I’m tryin’ to make you realize, you ain’t supposed to be cryin’
(x2)

You know you deserve better love
Come on you can do better love
Ain’t no second guessin’
You come first, cuz you’re such a blessing

You deserve better love
Come on you can do better love
Ain’t no second guessin’
Spread your wings, you can have a life of heaven

(verse 2)

I only want the best for you
Baby don’t you understand?

I only want the best for you
Girl you need another man

He really don’t want love from you
Just tryin’ to get you in his bed

It’s time you do what I want you to
How can I get it thru your head?

I only want the best for you
Baby don’t you understand?

I only want the best for you
Girl you need another man
That’s right

(the release)

Thanks for listening!

Thanks 7salles...you're pretty much spot on. Growing up in the 80's def had an influence on me.

I really like this. Also, I don't know if it's me but I hear some Prince-inspired beats!


Btw, I'm curious: your website mentions work on a debut album... May I ask when it is due for?

Thank you for being so generous with your talents and your work. Cheers!

i really like the line...
"give me your ears so i can open your eyes"

Hi Flo6,

The album should be complete by the end of the year. In the interum I'll be posting sample tracks at the org that I think Prince fans will dig.

Thank you for letting me know, Vumiko, I'm looking forward to it. If you are interested, I could write a review for MIT's The Tech newspaper and The Boston Globe, or The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, to which I contribute on a freelance basis.
In any case, I will keep my eyes [and ears] open for the sample tracks in these purple pages:)

Peace & inspiration
