But here's a little project I put together during my previous semester.
These tracks are a little rough/unmixed/incomplete
but they were all made in love.
Over the next 2 or so weeks i'll give some commentary on each of the tracks
Enjoy!
With Love... from mC (The Red Tape)

Dedicated to everyone who ever loved, music, another or life...

...don't frown when you see me.

and of course that doesn't make any sense..but maybe those words might hold some relevance sooner or later.
This cut that i'm taking out of the vault pretty much came from my long nights waiting tables, my man YB knows EXACTLY what i'm talking about.
I tend to zone out and observe my surroundings (possibly due to my studies*) when i'm at work, because its almost weird, I think about how everyone who works here ended up here and things of that nature. Just on some "I'd hate to still be working this job if i was in my 30's " type of stuff.
So I took that basic feeling, and talked about it from a perspective of someone who's dropped out of college and is at said job, just feeling a little desperate. I feel like people can relate to something like that.
plus i mean niggas be rapping...all that
but anyways here it is:

mC- TMA

This is a track I did around about the middle of summer, I had these 6th Sense beats and this one was always one of my favorites out of the bunch. So I decided to do some work to it.
The title of this track is a small play off of TMI (too much information), because music is therapy and in therapy you just express yourself...hence TMI. But, as any person who's tried to extract some truly critical 411 from me, can tell you... its coded.
So lines like " Don't Argue/Could've been that closet I hit or some lawsuits" refer to my old "Rihanna" and I couldve really been on some Chris Brown shit..but redirected and the outcome of that's just a scar on my hand. So there's really just a lot of little things like that, my insecurities, my drug habits, etc etc.
and the hook is just really self explanatory "these aint just rhymes/ see this is my art, so take some time..and take me apart".
In addition to that some...expirimentation with the mixing. etc etc.
I got like 3-4 other songs done on 6th Sense beats so I whenever I finish/mix those, and create some cover/backcover art i'll release a little mC x 6th Sense Project.
Enjoy!(click the pic):

This a song that I had in the archives waiting to be heard.
I was just gonna hold on to it..but after my girl's friend Jasmin RANDOMLY came through and dropped some vocals on it...I had to mix it and let it out.
BUT THEN my pro-tools was acting crazy(read: not WORKING!!!)...so this song has gone through some tumultuous times. Because of that i feel like I should drop it..

The first verse is about wack-rapper-friends.
The second verse is a story told from first person about a guy hopelessly in love and pursuit of this love, all to no avail.
and they (the verses) are longer than standard 16s because I tend to write in a freeflowing style.

Focus production.

Intro.

What's Up World!
Lemme properly introduce myself

My name is mC and in all honesty, I aint trynna be fly (i'm just fly on accident), I aint trynna be a MARTIAN, the next Wayne, the new KanYe, Lupe or Jay-Z, I just want to make honest music that reflects how I and the people around me feel. Influenced by the previously mentioned and in addition to that, a lot of the 90's R&B and hip-hop that I grew up listening to (80's baby). At the end of it all, good music speaks for itself, fuse that with a little bit of that new-new and here I am.

The Mission statement reads like:
"Personal, Honest music that pleases the ear and never lacks truth and honesty"

but you know just click the links in the upcoming posts and you'll get it
I'll probably post some of my closest cohorts efforts as well

Let's enjoy the journey
