Back in New York inspired to write a verse



FREESTYLE BY UNDAKOVA
BACK IN NEW YORK CITY June 2016

I am back in New York just came from Trader Joes
But I can trade you flows on how my city goes
Its kinda pitiful
but just to be hospitable a dose of caffeine makes it livable
up at 3, work at 6, did a 8 hour bid
after my 8 hour shift I am on train with kids
"she’s only 15 months" said the young mom
while the little girl blew a kiss, I was so charmed
the city has a way of making you love her for sure
Authentic chinese food, organic grocery stores
shittake mushroom burgers, bodegas galore
no matter how much I see there’s still always more
and MORE to see,
Just the other night, Ran into “Prodigy"
So I played Mobb Deep Shook Ones 2 for my lady
to demonstrate how much the “infamous album" made me
Into a better man.
Cause once I realized I wasn’t a crook, Came up with a better plan
but you don’t hear me though
I am vibing with employees, the jobless, the artist and the CEOS
That’s how my city rolls
I am on my bike in my pajamas and still shining bright like them videos
mopped the floors in my home, cleaned the kitchen fridge
now I am busting a freestyle rhyme about the things I did
Probably hit the beach this weekend or something
Do a workshop, or be teaching or something
the heat got my city streets peaking and buzzing
Clouds will rain down and start speaking and thundering
its all sacred
thats why I don’t take it for granted cause life is what you make it
I do my best to make the best of it
I am New York UNDAKOVA, L.E.S. wit it.

Written to this Beat.

7 Reasons why becoming a member of Beat365 rocks.

As you already might know I go by the alias Undakova (Undercover) and I am beat maker, DJ and MC here in NYC. I have been producing hip hop beats since the 90s and have produced my own hip hop instrumentals for my album created here in New York City. I often get asked by R & B artist and MCs "Can you produce some beats for my album?" One day the question popped up in my head "Where does an artist find great sounding Hip hop, r&b and rap beats that sound so good you play them in your car for fun as well as record song after song with them?" If an artist doesn't have a friend or business partner who is a producer or know how to/ want to produce beats on there own spare time (which can take a lot of time and money) where does he/she find a complete collection of hip hop beats? Well the answer is simple. . . . To find Hip hop, r&b and rap beats that sound so good you play them in your car for fun as well as record song after song with them go to Beats365...

What is Twhirl?

Ok so its been a few month of being involved in twittering. Yes I have been on Twitter since January I believe and I have about 530 followers and have made several tweets which go directly to my facebook status which I love. So basically I have been using twitter to be a connection to making status's that not only go to facebook but can be on the twitter public timeline as well as in several widgets that are attached to my blog and even myspace. I guess its say for me social networking has been a focus in the new year. But it gets better. . .even better. I am about to try Twhirl. You know what Twhirl is? oh man so why didn't you tell me? Oh oh you don't know what it is? Well its a desktop application (which might be shady) that allows you to organize your twitter experience in a huge way. They even have more of these desktop appliciations available by other names. Tweet Deck and some others probably exist too. So anyhow it was a decision between Tweet deck and Twhirl for m...

Can somebody say Amen

After a week of seeing different people come in our house and leave our house with smiles on there faces still our sublet process is not complete. I wake up today and meditate my stress's away. Well most of em. Yesterday I spent all day working on a proposal for a school in Washington heights who seem to be interested in having an after-school program formulated by my company Willpowa. Weeks went by and I spent my days working on music and completing songs in the studio only to leave the proposal writing up to a trusted friend and fellow mc. Suffice to say it never got completed due to my energy being scattered amongst recording and subleting my place. Not to mention being a good boyfriend through the process. So turns out my friends from the UK want to look over it this weekend so I will have to submit the proposal in a bit late anyhow but hopefully with more spunk than it had in the first place. Anyway lets just say the only thing that helped me from not having a nervous breakdow...
