"Unique and Uncontemporary"

Poem by Sid J

Unique is Yourself

Be it!

Individual makes this world

Not clones !

Who cares what people think ?

Stop looking for Acceptance

Accept yourself !

Who cares if the world doesn't like you

You like you!!!!

You are not here to blend in with everyone

You are here to stand out

Create

Inspire

Educate

Change the world

Uncontemporary is innovation

Go against the grain

Revise what been written

Progress will be made

No Fucks Given is trending

Bad bitches is trending

Complacency is trending

Start to give a Fuck

Start being a lady

Ambition is the Goal

Show some!

Lazy is your first name

You think success is gonna fall

Into your lap

Silly rabbits tricks are for kids!

It won't!

Entitlement is your middle name

You think the worlds owes you

Silly rabbit tricks are for kids!

No one owes you anything

If you want it you got to get it

Hate is your last name

Your envy has corrupted your thoughts

Now you can't be happy for someone

Who doing well

Silly rabbit tricks are for kids

Don't get bitter get better

So much potential is being wasted

Everyday!

And it will continue

Until people start being

Unique and Uncontemporary

We need to produce a Obama

Not a cheif Keif

We need to produce critical thinker

Not people that make life critical

We need more Martins Luther Kings

We need more Malcom X s

We need more Tupacs

We need more Mos Defs

We need more Commons

Hell!

We  need more common sense

We need more open minds

We need more innovators

Pharrells

No Forreal!

We need to leave a legacy

We have Nothing!!!

Be the first to start your own

Ownership is everything

Branding is the most of it

Be your own boss !

Set yourself up

Put yourself on

Don't wait for anybody

Nobody waiting on you

Time not waiting

That's for damn sure

It's Time

For change

In ourselves

The community

The world

If not now

When ?

If not you

Who?

Don't let another day go by

Without you

Making a change

It's starts today

Rite Now

Be Unique and Uncontemporary

Music Monday 1.21.13 TheeBlackMonroe

Presented here is the background of an up in coming Female MC known as TheeBlackMonroe. TheeBlackMonroe is bringing a fresh new urban sound with a twist of the 90’s vibe and flow to the game. Out of Virginia, TheeBlackMonroe is highly influenced by New York Hip-Hop, which is very apparent in her unique sound and flow. Most would describe her voice of a smooth and capturing tone, which only compliments her actual appearance. The combination grasps listeners because they are shocked to find one with her elegance flowing so hardcore yet confident in delivery. Hip-Hop listeners commonly note the sound combination of Lil Kim and Foxy Brown creating her flow. TheeBlackMonroe finds those remarks with much gratification; however, she wants to capture and represent her own sound in which she states fans will soon hear this spring in the release of her first mix-tape titled: “GXLDXN CLVSSXX”.

TheeBlackMonroe is very new to this rap game just beginning her career this past fall of 2012; however, she has always had a passion and love for Hip-Hop entirely. She hopes as a Female MC that her sound will bring back the appreciation for real lyrical Hip-Hop as it was in the 90’s. She is inspired by Hip-Hop legends and notes some of her favorite rappers to be of; Biggie Smalls, Big L, Lil Kim, Andre 3000, Nas, Fabulous, and Q-Tip. She has a passion for making real Hip-Hop that people can vibe, party, and just relax to. She just wants to get her voice out for all to tune in and simply listen.

TheeBlackMonroe’s birth name is Alexis Hunt. Norfolk, Virginia is her birthplace sharing the same grounds as rapper Pusha T. After years of being infatuated by the Hip-Hop genre and culture, TheeBlackMonroe has decided to put her voice in the game. She just wants to share her talents and in-depth knowledge with her love for Hip-Hop. Discovered by Harlem’s up in coming artist Young Tone over the website soundcloud, TheeBlackMonroe has recently joined his team Fleet-O in New York. She there recorded the first cuts of her tracks: “They Betta Know Us” & “Neva Slippin” which can be found on YouTube and Soundcloud; artist: TheeBlackMonroe. Now under management in Manhattan under Young Tone’s manager, TheeBlackMonroe predicts a big come up and surprise awakening in this Hip-Hop industry for 2013.

TheeBlackMonroe has a legit passion for Hip-Hop entirely and music in general. From a life of hardships though only 19 years young, she has been through a lot and hopes with music to better her self, also helping and encouraging others that anything is possible with determination and drive. TheeBlackMonroe is ready to make her mark in the game with her style & grace, and from there sustain by her “Lyrical douches.” She is very confident in her work and knows that if you just take the time to listen, you will love her work. She puts her heart and soul into music, nothing she loves more…and from here on out, she wants all listeners to Enjoy.
