Well, I can't deny that i recognize myself in their lyrics, who woudln't : "instead of criticizing my hustle why don't you learn it" .
Let me explain.
I discovered this band on Spotify
https://open.spotify.com/track/0kysNuzXH1rvYPIk7QeR98?si=5c5a29745fc14c5f
I cannot stop listening to this tune, por aqui los muertos cantan... splendid, excellent, i follow the Mexican scene since i discovered another amazing band :
Molotov
With Frijolero, Molotov reached people outside the "American rap scene". The rest is history.
Now there is a new band in town and they are FUCKING AMAZING"!
Keeping the flow up and right to the point, these are out of any "recognizable scheme" they do what they like, which i guess is the reason for life, doing what you really like.. why the fuck on earth we "human beings" are obliged to work for a living...
i sell weed for a living, someone used to sing.
Following the Rap scene allows me to meet and discover a new way of thinking, of concieving music. it's something beyond simple understanding cultural differences,it is like entering deeply into the "world " of the band... like perceiving their dissent on your own skin.
Right... on your own skin, cos when "racism" lingers in the air there is a stink around, such a stink of shit...
In Italy racism is a political choice.
Recently "we, the Italians" are turning into this bundle of "assholes" ready to criticize everyone, everything, anything.
In case we missed the bus, we run down the road shouting out loud all our "mental deterioration" about differences...
But as an italian singer used to say:
"Sarà la musica che abbiamo intorno, saremo noi che abbiamo nella testa un maledetto muro"
The point is that we "the weirdos, the whitches, los muertos" are coming.. and we are asking for revenge.
We are smarter then you, we speak more languages the you do. We write, dream in double language, and some of us are able to speak, dream and sing in 3/4/5/6 different languages.
And we are fucking flowless.
So when these guys are rapping they rock, they feel the beat inside.. It's a kind of magic. 😉 and i would like to meet them in person to understand better the source of their incredible "art"
We are talking of Art with a Capitol A.
I learned the most important lesson. You are an artist when you reach inside your little brain to transform reality in something better than what it really is.
An artist is a free soul flying over an ocean of shit, an artist is someone who likes himself for what he does but is always looking for something better. An artist is a rebel living his "curse" with fucking dignity. An artist is anyone who has the courage and the strength to get up every single morning, go to work for 13 hours a day in a fucking restaurant and still being able to find beauty in every corner.
I think that an artist is the soul of the world. He is the one who can heal our pain, change our world and offer us a different perspective on this insane "ordinary" life. And these boys are Artists.
As artists the "band" has to produce what they have in mind without bounderies.. and unfortunatelly they atttracted a storm of "haters" for a video which i found outstanding. I love it. So why all this "hate" on their FB page??? no idea.
I guess these are trolls, but enjoy the video.
Here it is.
Coca Y Marijuana
I really like the video... i really do... i first discovered this song on #Spotify... always looking for new inspirations, I'm a musician as well, and i fucking love these guys.
The other video is Arriba Mexico
"Yo soy cocodrilo, yo soy cristalino..." The way they dance, you have to keep watching this video over and over. The part I like the most is from 1:36 to 2:18 and also the beginning at 0.34..
ARRIBA MEXICO.. man!! Just fucking great
can i repeat myself? MENTAL
So yes, my favorite video is
Arriba mexico...
It rocks the town upside down... correct? "Dunno" I'm an Italian writing in English about a Mexican band in California... is it clear now where this world is going?Don't you like it? Shut the fuck up.
Thank you Los Muertos de California you made my day.
