Speaking in Tongues
I recorded another one
This time not quite as shamelessly corny
Happy Pentecost
Oh look… I’ve been playing with Garageband and confronting the sound of my own voice.
200 Views - If this hit 300, more people will have seen this on youtube than when I performed it.

Speaking in Tongues
This topped 100 views. Even SOPA can’t stop me from feeling special. Thank you internet!
This is the PG-13 version, which I actually like better. I had a couple more days to tighten up my flow on it which never hurts and tried it over a different beat.
This is the second song I’ve written, which I took a bit more seriously. Once I realized I could rap, I worked on it. This is what came out. I performed this just this past Sunday before Christmas.
And not the 3rd eye reference isn’t a mistake. I go to church in Oakland with a bunch of hippies. It’s not really about a lot of Bible thumping.
Anyone can rap. If you have something to express, you can rap. Just try it and see what happens. I learned just driving around in my car with a CD of instrumentals. Don’t let anyone tell you how to do it, just figure it out for yourself. There’s a part of you that already knows how and just needs to be reminded that you can.
This is the first song I ever wrote, which for a project I did in a class I took at my church over the summer. There’s a clip of me performing it in church back in September, but none of the instruments were on mic so that sound didn’t come out that hot.
The beat is from Jurassic 5’s song “Linguistic”
