The NLTeam

I’m really honoured to have supported KRS One on the final date of his Global Awareness Tour at the Brighton Concord last week. It’s a full circle moment as I used to listen to his track called “The MC” religiously one day hoping to be as credible as The MC he describes in the song. Well, according to him and crowd I’m more than qualified to hold the title of “The Freestyle MC”. And I look forward to connecting with The Blast Master and Official Hiphop Teacher again the in the near futuure! It went well and it was a great event. I’m extremely grateful to the team that made it happen: @kprymethejaeger @panman @pascal_blaschta @gattzilla Big shout to the venue rocker crew and Temple of Hiphop Family: @xavrpryme_xp @blacksmithmusic @joey.tru Stay productive and positive and let’s keep building. LeeN NLTeam ✊🏿

Writing Challenge #78 Topic: Angels and Demons Artist: @pascal_blaschta Beat: Plucking away at a couple guitar strings and whacking a cajon in my room Lyrics: Shards of broken bottle glass Extend the path of dim lights Battling the dark of the underpass One lamp around the bend Is flickering in tandem With random bickering… And a smell that is sickening Slurred curse words are murmured Scents are whispering to me that Someone has been murdered I creep around the corner met with a mountain of dirty clothes Hiding a bloody bag/ of broken bones Shadows Depict a tiny pipe wrapped tightly by lips Sitting below A ring of smoke shimmering in the low light Like a halo Dissipating into the chilly breeze I hear the man making sense with his wheeze… “Breathin’ a crystal keep me dreaming Of leaving the Bristol that birthed all of my demons” … Like the halo, He faded into silence Yet another angel taken by the tyrants Despite all of the defiance He faded into silence Yet another angel taken by the tyrants #nlteam #writingchallenge #rapchallenge

WC #73 Topic: Triggered Artist: @itsdrou Beat: Up and Up by @prod.by.bizzle Lyrics: I don’t hunt game But I got a gunsafe Trigger finger ready for the one day Unfazed Till 2021 came Someone said I could make money in a fun way But to enter in, there certain fee Learnin about crypto currency A lot of people never took it seriously, But I was tryna get the bag and wasn’t near to my dreams So I signed up, I dropped a stack for em And pretty soon I realized it was a pyramid scheme Go figure, The fakeness had me so triggered I won’t get into the details, my soul slipped up Knew it was shady, yet I’d still promote it to Everyone I knew, like “you could get improved!” Dreams and broken promises, I inspired a few But dealing with the devil is like lighting a fuse Maybe the fake is my trigger Ended up fakin it too Saw my own fate in the scripture I had to tighten my screws #nlteam #writingchallenge #rapchallenge

Writing Challenge # 70 Topic: Where There are no Enemies Within, the Enemies Outside Cannot Hurt You Beat: @blacklace_uk - It’s a Breeze Artist: @wigglysheep A reflection of my thoughts My enemies forgot Undressing myself in the mirror Looking at me so I can see clearer My eager demeanor you so eagerly Try to make weaker You can’t weaken me that easily I’ll spit you back in the ether You’re a disaster waiting to happen Call me those words and I’ll throw them back Attack with lyrical whiplash, The thirst for hurt I don’t yearn for, Often times I ignore My own hurt from the thirst though I’m a soft soul amongst all these mongrels Throwing soft blows, they’re just dogs, though I’m a cobra, spitting up words from my sofa I don’t think I know ya, so please leave me alone, bruh Not much of a diva, but I’ll still hit notes that leave you with a fever I’m lethal, peeking through your speakers, turned up loud To drown out the people, enemies can’t hear me Can’t defeat me, there won’t be a sequel if you hear me I see me, clearly, it’s just me, Beki, stepping in lightly Don’t defy me, no need to fight me #nlteam #writingchallenge #rapchallenge

NLTeam Writing Challenge #70 Topic: Playing My Position Aritst: @boarderless7 Couldn’t see me as a player Don’t like being in positions where I’m destined to fail I gotta look behind the layers Cause if I don’t then I’ll be dammed to follow up on this trail I’ve been sending out them prayers hoping they ain’t getting answered Only been playing my position in this game for banter And I ain’t thought of god as a person they’d put in handcuffs But then I started seeing people treating themselves like cancer, what’s the answer? Why can’t everybody be happy? Why do we keep a living a life where you need to be right when you try to attack me I used to be used to the fighting inside of my mind I decided it’s crappy It only divided the highs of the sides of my livelihood I couldn’t back me in But now I’m just here tryna bury the pain I’m looking for people who outta position but still tryna carry the game Cause nowadays star players all over they only been looking for girls soaking So I couldn’t stay in positions and pray for the vision to not leave the world broken #nlteam #writingchallenge #rapchallenge

Writing Challenge #69 Topic: The Love Of My Life Artist: @boarderless7 I met the love of my life at seventeen I never dreamed of Having seen a being as magnificent through a screen I was sure that this love was pure and forever Got addicted to it going back and forth for the treasure Still wasn’t perfect and life was a struggle that time I remember the way I was fighting Inside I been hurting a while but I’m healing it Little by little with lines I was writing Cause all of my memories faded And all the calamities made it To the point that I gotta wake up and start writing down Shit that I’m feeling or never leave hatred Back in the past I’m packing a bag that I happened to Have in these places Don’t wanna attach so the only thing ima be packing Is rap in my cases Cause long as the passion in rapping is here Could have em attacking I’m lacking the fear Love of my life but the struggles the price For the happiness still people grabbing a beer #nlteam #writingchallenge #rapchallenge

NLTeam Writing Challenge #65 Topic: A Date with Destiny Artist: @boarderless7 Yea, which all of these voices in my mind is mine? And which of all these choices of my life define What kinda picture I’m painting and when the final line Is gonna be drawn, I’ve longed for a sign of time I’ve been feeling like I knew I was where heading but I’m through with Only pursuing the ruin and regret and I be fluent with spewing out all Intrusive and incessive thoughts so soon I’ll be over the moon, in tune And just forgetting all that bad shit On my way to my date, With destiny I’m stressing I can’t wait on my fate Ready to ask all of the questions I engraved on my plate Like what’s the role that you be playing When we makin mistakes Like what’s the reason that I’m feeling like I’m playing a game Don’t need the answers, cause it’s me who should be taking the blame I shoulda known that you don’t speak but shit it makes me insane Cause I know everything I need when you start saying my name #nlteam #writingchallenge #rapchallenge
