Lyrics:

I treat the beat like a b*tch  
I can tell if its me off the rip  
Soon as I seen you I said sh*t  
Aint gotta look no further baby thats it

2 phone calls 3 DMs  
Woke up at like 3 pm  
My tempo was a medium  
Now its more like EDM

I rave about you  
Got a notebook that deserve a page about you  
A ring to give you  
With a diamond as cold as my days without you

I"m a hopeless  
Romantic going manic with the focus  
Had 3 tabs open when I wrote this 
Might let Yung Pueblo quote this  
You the dark in the night where ghost is  
You the light that I need when I smoke this  
Always take me to high places  
But dope is, deadly in high doses

I do what I want 
I like what I like 
I cant help it

I love what I love  
That pussy like drugs  
I cant help it

Want you to myself  
Im too selfish...

I Can"t Help It

Forbidden Fruit #8

LOST

"LOST" is about not knowing exactly where you"re going and being unsure about what the future holds. However, no matter what happens you have this deep gut feeling that it"s gonna turn out ok.

Smoked Something

Smoked Something is a chance to take a deep breath in and relax, unwind and zone out. An instrumental head-nod jazz vibe cooked up in the middle of the night imagining Dilla, George Duke and Herbie sharing a bowl...

performed, programmed, produced by MdCL

It"s always special to share the music with you, and this time there"s a little more to this drop - it"s the first of 8 drops (!) for [$BUYBACK Emerald] with Mashibeats - the web3 music-creator community I founded. We"re taking this opportunity to invite you as a music NFT collector, to be part of our community.

There"s two goals in mind for [$BUYBACK Emerald]. 

GOAL 1: increase governance membership of Mashibeats 
- every collector of this NFT can claim an airdrop of 35 $BUYBACK, representing governance in Mashibeats

GOAL 2: building the community treasury which $BUYBACK holders have voting power over
- 70% of funds from this drop go directly to the Mashibeats treasury. Over the 8 drops we aim to raise up to 5 ETH, to then have community join in making proposals for $BUYBACK holders to vote on. 

Holders also curate and A&R by way of voting - our recently released remix contest winners vinyl and NFTs having been all decided by $BUYBACK members - curation by community  

After collecting (thank you! and welcome!), head over to http://mashibeats.xyz/buyback

Headsup - each subsequent drop in this series of 8 will be a smaller edition batch, with a +0.01 increase in price and an increase in $BUYBACK claimable. And we"re working on something special for collectors who collect all 8 of the drops !

shout out to the fam @RedbudNFT - you know you gotta Smoke Something x

Golds In (ft. Tyler Donavan)

I remember putting together this instrumental and putting the words together for this song

I had been doing some healing and wanted to reflect on this new place in my life within my writing. My music has always been a raw and pure reflection of where I currently am and since I had been doing a lot of growing in such a short time, I needed to invite people into this new space of healing I currently resided in. 

A place of where one can relate, a place of encouragement, a place of peace, place to unite in healing and more.

This also needed to be an introduction to a new pat junior that would be smiling MORE. 

All of those things in my mind and my heart carefully considered, I wrote Golds In featuring my homie Tyler Donavan.

Don't Worry (feat. Brea)

This was the first song that Brea and I made together. I"d heard her voice once or twice and knew already that she was a dope singer. So when I ran into at a party, I was like "yo let"s get in the studio". 

Our first session was maybe an hour long, and we got two song finished that are two of my best collaborations to-date. One of those is the record "Don"t Worry" produced by my long-time friend and collaborator Darius Mines. 

PAISLEY had already been released by the time we made this, but it was a lock to add it on as a bonus track for the deluxe edition released 6 months later.

This song will be both Darius and Brea"s first NFTs.

More about PAISLEY....

In 2017, I had a thought, patterns prevail. It was derivative of a quote from my best friend and frequent collaborator, Sky Welkin, which read passion prevails. Sky is a talented cartoonist that embeds profound messages like this throughout his work.

During our college years, hed often come by and draw while I made beats, this was our ghetto co-working era, and in these sessions wed smoke, engage in discourse, and share ideas about the respective worlds we were building in our art. In fact, I was very much into doing something new each album, but Sky was the primary influence for me to get into world-building and having a particular sense of style that was cultivated over time.

In one of my college apartments, I decided that to let Sky use all of the walls in my room as a canvas - the few hundred dollars that Id spend to have the room repainted when I moved was minuscule compared to the living art piece around me. Every so often I would discover some new character scene or phrase that hed drawn without me noticing, but one of these phrases was placed in such a way that I couldnt miss it as soon as I woke up, passion prevails.

Web3 has offered much in the form of expansion for the experiential qualities and monetization of my art. We always say things like, time passes quickly in web3.

As much as I agree, I find it interesting that time also seems to stay still - art is appreciated for its beauty regardless of age and with the possibilities available to me with NFTs, something like my debut album, can no experience a new form of appreciation.

As I begin to release works from the PAISLEY collection over time, it was only fitting that I began with the short film.

When I was working on the album, I connected with my friend and collaborator, Dawit N.M. to share the pattern theories I was creating from and what I was aesthetically into at the time. Dawit went on to handle the art direction for the album, as well as bringing my convoluted story concept to life as a film.

The story of PAISLEY exists in a universe in which we"ve all been made to forget true selves. Though, there are those of us that break free and reawaken, remembering all the knowledge of self that was once lost. A human that knows who they are can no longer be controlled and is thus a threat to those in power.

This is the case for our protagonists Figaro and Paisley. The pair, bound by fate, seek each other out in parallel universes with the hope to awaken their companion and continue their journey towards freedom. Our short film finds Figaro, moments after being awakened by Paisley, and follows them towards their attempted escape.

The PAISLEY album and short film are an allegory for patterns at every level of life. Just as cells make up organisms and organisms make up the planets, and the planets the universe, and so on - patterns, appear, reshape, and reappear until their purpose in your life is realized. In my album I explore the different patterns in my relationships and my relationships as patterns, that were required for me to grow individually.

This year marks the 3 year anniversary of the PAISLEY collection, with the short film has only been screened at live performances and intimate talks. Now it will all be immortalized on the blockchain.
