Cyhi Da Prynce No Dope on Sunday Free Download Cyhi the Prynce – No Dope on Sunday REVIEW cyhi da prynce no dope on sunday free download Cyhi The Prynce – No Dope On Sunday REVIEW. Cyhi The Prynce Is An Atlanta Rapper Who Was Signed To Def Jam, Through Out The Years Of Cyhi’s Career He Has Released Many Mixtapes But, No Dope On Sunday Is His Official Debut Album. On October 27th He Released His First Single, Dat Side, Featuring Kanye West. On November 17th No Dope On Sunday Was Released & From All The Hype That Came With Cyhi’s Name He Proved Why He Is One Of The Most Underrated Rappers To Come Out Of Atlanta. To Go Into The Album With The Track Titled, No Dope On Sunday, I Really Love How Cyhi Actually Details The Meaning Of Literally Not Selling Drugs On A Sunday & States On The Track That Real Hustlers Don’t Need To Sell Drugs On A Day That Praise The Lord. Tracks Like Free, 80’s Baby, & Murda, Cyhi Is Actually Speaking From A Place Of The Heart & Many Struggles He’s Been Going Threw On The Streets. He Preaches That He Left Home When He Was 16 Because He Felt Out Of Place While Dropping Out Of School In 11th Grade. Also Discusses The Pressure Of Being Signed To Def Jam While Having A God Giving Talent But letting It Go To Waste Due To Management. Listening To This Album I Noticed Amazing Lyrics But Also A Change In Delivery. I Personally Feel Like Listening To Tracks Like Dat Side, Looking For Love, & Trick Me, He Tries To Connect To The Audience That Listens To The Radio Or He Tries To Dumb Down His Music To Catch Listeners. Which Is Not A Problem Of 2 Reasons, Cyhi The Prynce Is An Phenomenal Lyricist & Theres Nothing Wrong With Changing The Paste Of Your Craft As Long As You Remember What Your Capable Of. This Album Deserves A Solid 9/10 For Incredible Lyrics, Outstanding Wordplay, & For An Amazing Project. No Dope On Sunday Showed Me How Unique Cyhi The Prynce Is, & I Only Hope He Can Deliver More In The Future. 20 of the Best Lyrics From Cyhi The Prynce’s ‘No Dope on Sundays’ Album. Seven is regarded by many to be the number that symbolizes completion and if you're of that belief, CyHi The Prynce's journey throughout the record industry may be viewed as less of a burden and more of a blessing in disguise. The Atlanta native first got his big break upon signing to Akon's Konvict Muzik imprint, but it wouldn't be until after Kanye West gave CyHi his coveted cosign and tapped him to be included in his G.O.O.D. Friday series—culminating in an appearance on Yeezy's My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy album—as well as an offer to join G.O.O.D. Music as an artist. The move would be a high-profile one and put CyHi on the radar of tastemakers and critics alike, leading to the rapper being selected as part of the 2011 XXL Freshman class. The rapper followed in the footsteps of fellow G.O.O.D. Music artists Kid Cudi and Big Sean, both of whom would enjoy careers as platinum-selling artists. CyHi, on the other hand, would bide his time with a string of mixtape releases while lending his pen to Kanye West projects like Yeezus and The Life of Pablo. However, a lack of a release date for his debut album would leave the rapper's career at a standstill. Now, after years of false starts, CyHi The Prynce's debut album, No Dope on Sundays , has been released and all it requires is a quick listen to realize the project may be overdue, but is more than worth the wait. Pulling out all the stops, with guest appearances by the likes of Kanye West, Pusha T, Schoolboy Q, Travis Scott, 2 Chainz, Jagged Edge, BJ the Chicago Kid, Estelle and Ernestine Johnson, CyHi delivers a riveting debut with No Dope on Sundays , an album that is indicative of its author's skill as a songwriter and his promise as a soloist. XXL sifts through CyHi The Prynce's anticipated debut and compiles 20 of the most uncut lyrics from No Dope on Sundays that will have listeners fiending for more. "Amen (Intro)" "From where the gangstas die young and the rats die faster/So when my shooter spread, this Mac lives shatter/Ridin' 'round like, 'Who gives a fuck if Black Lives Matter?'/Wash the blood off his hands then get baptized after/I'm the new testament, the last five chapters/And God said He would come back by rapture" "Amen (Intro) "The story of a journeyer, who made it out the wilderness/No feelings ’cause I met a lot of villains on my pilgrimage/God told me, 'Son, never settle like the pilgrims did'/So I bought a convertible, I don't know where the ceiling is/I'm here to restore the pillages of villages/I brought enough food for thought to feed a million kids" "No Dope on Sundays" "Why you think I bank with Chase? I'm everywhere the money move/My Hyundai crews making plays, my operation running smooth/Brought a tool just in case these niggas in a grumpy mood/Oh I heard they 'bout that gunplay, cool we 'bout that gunplay too/My rendezvous made the front page news, I like my hundreds blue/Chucking Jews, taking strippers out of town on honeymoons/Leave they kids with they grandma so they go to Sunday school" - CyHi The Prynce. "No Dope on Sundays" "Had the trap on Cleveland Ave by the K-Mart, bitch/I brought them bags to the hood and made 'em slang our shit/In Atlanta y'all don't know how good my face card is/Turned the Racetrack on Bouldercrest to a baseball field/It's safe to say it's all real but all my scars is all healed/’Cause I been stabbed in the back more times than Paul Pierce" - CyHi The Prynce. Get Yo Money. "I'm from the home of the Georgia peach/We had to call Meech if we wanted to order keys/Our blow was from Miami, enjoy the Florida breeze/Got a Zo' pound and broke it down to all quarter P's/Don't run off with the pack, my nigga, we used to torture thieves/Immigrant killers, huh, I think they Portuguese/And ya'll lookin' like some sittin' ducks just a porch of geese" - CyHi The Prynce. "Trick Me" "A nigga shot me in the ankle and I ain't kill 'em, ya lucky/Pulled a pistol on me and took my wallet, fuck it/Southside nigga money long as Godby Road/Duffle Bag video was shot in front of Stop-N-Go/Dropped some racks at Avianne and I wore it out the store/Remember Aamaco and Optimo and riding candy coat/See these niggas try to play me off the streets, I can feel it/Hundred thousand for a show so every ten shows that's a milli" - 2 Chainz. "Trick Me" "I eat with the partakers, habitual law breakers/Quick with the card capers, we dipped when the cops chased us/Pitchin' the soft got niggas rich as a ball player, medicinal all flavors/To cover up the smell we shipped it in wall paper/Rip it open with a sharp razor, yeah/My OG turned his young Jedi to Darth Vader/A pound is an acre, they taught us to talk safer/And all my niggas strapped, get smoked like a Gar Vega/While you chilling with your bitch that pull up in broad day her" - CyHi The Prynce. "Don't Know Why" "I move around with the broom like a janitor/Pomegranate cannabis, called a play and ran it up/Automatic hammers tucked on every transaction/FedEx the package or I might just Amtrak it/Back and forth to Michigan, I want my grams rapid/Them niggas who tried to write me off can't even pay their taxes" - CyHi The Prynce. "Don't Know Why" "My OG shot him through the door, left him on the street bad/Then he asked me for the check, but not an actual check/For those who not in the streets, just know that means cash/I'm from where a zone is a zipper, and your tone is your trigger/Where your wife is your bitch, and your homies' your niggas/In my city, I'm legend, on my corner, I'm Chipper/Runnin' from the red dogs, we holla Clifford" - CyHi The Prynce. "God Bless Your Heart" "Flipping half, I like my cars and my women fast/Bitches love my presence 'cause I got the Gift of Gab/My matriarch low mileage, I APR/I need my lady just like a brand new Mercedes car, ha/It's 'bout your lineage, show 'em I'm not your guinea pig/Might fuck a midget and have twins, I'm tryna have too many kids" "Dat Side" "Pulled a Lambo out and then I went and got it baptized/Moved into a neighborhood where I'm the only black guy/Neighbors said they think I gave the neighborhood a black eye/They too worried 'bout what I'm doing so I gotta keep my grass high" "Dat Side" "I'm so anti, I'm so, I'm so anti/Seen my buddy passout, I'm careful who I stand by/All you do is tell stories, you a campfire/You can barely hold your water, you a damn liar/Look at all the haters who came out to see him/I'm fresh to death, my closet is a mausoleum" - CyHi The Prynce.

In 1972, New Orleans native Herman Joshua Wallace (b. 1941) was serving a 25-year sentence for bank robbery when he was accused of murdering an Angola Prison guard and thrown into solitary confinement. Many believed him wrongfully convicted. Appeals were made but Herman remained in jail and—to increasingly widespread outrage—in solitary. Years passed with one day much like the next. Then in 2001 Herman received a perspective- shifting letter from a Jackie Sumell, a young art student, who posed the provocative question: “What kind of house does a man who has lived in a six-foot-by-nine-foot cell for over 30 years dream of?” Thus began an inspired creative dialogue, unfolding over hundreds of letters and phone calls and yielding a multi-faceted collaborative project that includes the exhibition “The House That Herman Built.” The revelatory art installation—featuring a full-scale wooden model of Herman’s cell and detailed plans of his dream home—has brought thousands of gallery visitors around the world face-to-face with the harsh realities of the American prison system.

    “THE BIGGEST COLORED SHOW ON EARTH”: HOW MINSTRELSY HAS DEFINED PERFORMANCES OF AFRICAN AMERICAN IDENTITY FROM 19TH CENTURY THEATER TO HIP HOP A Senior Thesis submitted to the Faculty of the College of Arts and Sciences of Georgetown University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Bachelor of Arts in American Studies By Laura-Brynn Neuhoff Washington, D.C. April 26, 2017 “THE BIGGEST COLORED SHOW ONE EARTH”: HOW MINSTRELSY HAS DEFINED PERFORMANCES OF AFRICAN AMERICAN IDENTITY FROM 19TH CENTURY THEATER TO HIP HOP Laura-Brynn Neuhoff Thesis Adviser: Marcia Chatelain, Ph.D. ABSTRACT This senior thesis seeks to answer the following question: how and why is the word “minstrel” and associated images still used in American rap and hip hop performances? The question was sparked by the title of a 2005 rap album by the group Little Brother: The Minstrel Show. The record is packaged as a television variety show, complete with characters, skits, and references to blackface. This album premiered in the heat of the Minstrel Show Debate when questions of authenticity and representation in rap and hip hop engaged community members. My research is first historical: I analyze images of minstrelsy and reviews of minstrel shows from the 1840s into the twentieth century to understand how the racist images persisted and to unpack the ambiguity of the legacy of black blackface performers. I then analyze the rap scene from the late 2000-2005, when the genre most poignantly faced the identity crisis spurred by those referred to as “minstrel” performers. Having conducted interviews with the two lyricists of Little Brother: Rapper Big Pooh and Phonte, I primarily use Little Brother as my center of research, analyzing their production in conjunction with their spatial position in the hip hop community.

  • Until the Light Takes Us Wednesday 7 October at 6:15Pm
    UNTIL THE LIGHT TAKES US WEDNESDAY 7 OCTOBER AT 6:15PM There is certainly something rotten in the state of Norway: Satanism, the killing of ‘faggots’, the burning of churches, and lead singer Dead shooting his brain out with a shotgun, prompting an interviewee to opine how ‘Dead was dead in a bed’. It can only be one thing: Black Metal. This doc concentrates on some of the key players in the Black metal scene and investigates the influences, characters, art and the often-disturbing belief systems that are present in this morbidly engaging world. We hear the case against Christianity and its inherent disrespect for other cultures. American imperialism, consumerism and the tabloids also get it in the neck. Often the music takes a back seat to the sensational events that are discussed. But there’s enough to sate anyone from the darkside. The main Norwegian bands featured are Mayhem, Burzum, Darkthrone, a wave of metal acts that take their cue from metal veterans Venom and Celtic Frost – with that regimented sound of distorted guitars, double-kick drums and the kind of vocals that make one want to eat one’s own ears. A healthily objective viewpoint is achieved by the directors who take matters pretty seriously, though at times, it’s the interviewees who seem to find the bizarre incidents almost amusing.

  • “My Logo Is Branded on Your Skin”: the Wu-Tang Clan, Authenticity, Black Masculinity, and the Rap Music Industry
    “MY LOGO IS BRANDED ON YOUR SKIN”: THE WU-TANG CLAN, AUTHENTICITY, BLACK MASCULINITY, AND THE RAP MUSIC INDUSTRY By Ryan Alexander Huey A THESIS Submitted to Michigan State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of History – Master of Arts 2014 ABSTRACT “MY LOGO IS BRANDED ON YOUR SKIN”: THE WU-TANG CLAN, AUTHENTICITY, BLACK MASCULINITY, AND THE RAP MUSIC INDUSTRY By Ryan Alexander Huey The rap group, the Wu-Tang Clan came out of a turbulent period of time in both the rap music industry and American society in the early 1990s. Lawsuits over sampling in rap music forced producers to rethink the ways they made music while crack cocaine and the War on Drugs wreaked havoc in urban communities across the nation, as it did in the Clan’s home borough of Staten Island, New York. Before the formation of the group, Gary “GZA” Grice, had managed to land a recording contract as a solo artist, but his marketing was mismanaged and his career stagnated. He returned in 1992 as one of the nine member collective, who billed themselves as kung fu movie buffs melding low-fi, eerie productions with realistic raps about ghetto life. Drawing from the vibrant underground rap scene of New York City in the 1970s and 1980s, Brooklyn’s rich African American chess tradition, the teachings of the Five Percenters, and the cult following for Hong Kong action cinema, the Clan became a huge hit across the country. Each member fashioned a unique masculine identity for himself, bolstering their hardcore underground image while pushing the boundaries of acceptable expressions of manhood in rap music.
