    kodak black brand new glizzy free download Kodak Black Drops Off Another New Single "Brand New Glizzy" Kodak Black drops off his second track of the day with "Brand New Glizzy." Kodak Black is in go mode right now. Earlier today, he announced that he'd be dropping off a new project this Friday with Project Baby 2: All Grown Up . He also confirmed that he'd dropping to new singles today. He previously dropped off a remix to Beyonce and Drake's "I Can" and now, he delivers another effort with "Brand New Glizzy." Kodak's latest effort is another slower effort from him. The beat is lead by a slow guitar progression with the 808 bass driving it forward. However, it's less introspective and more of a flex. Kodak still touches on some personal topics throughout the single but Kodak definitely flexes on this more than he did on "201519971800." It sounds a bit more celebratory in a way, as if he's looking at 2017's yearbook and realizing how far he has come. It's another look into what we should be expecting from his upcoming Project Baby 2: All Grown Up. Quotable Lyrics I just dropped an album, Project baby 2 I got a son now, my little baby two I got snakes in my Gucci, I'm a python I got snakes in my closet but not in my yard.

  • Kodak Black’S 2016 XXL Freshman Interview and Freestyle By: XXL Staff June 20, 2016
    Watch Kodak Black’s 2016 XXL Freshman Interview and Freestyle By: XXL Staff June 20, 2016 Once an artist claims to be better than both Biggie and Tupac, hip-hop fans take notice. Kodak Black did just that during his interview for his spot on the 2016 XXL Freshman Class cover. “I’m bigger than Tupac and Biggie,” the 19-year-old Pompano Beach, Fla. native states. Earlier this month, Kodak dropped the fittingly titled mixtape, Lil B.I.G. Pac, a collection of tracks showcasing his growth since dropping previous projects like Project Baby, Heart of the Projects and Institution. It’s obvious the “SKRT” rapper knows a thing or two about staying productive considering he’s remained consistent with new material. “People just see like the shine, they don’t see the grind,” Kodak shares. Anyone familiar with his solo efforts or his guest appearances on tracks like French Montana’s “Lockjaw” know Kodak has a unique place in the game when it comes to his presence on the mic. “I got this voice from the lord I guess,” he continues. “I could just ride the beat any type of way, switch it up on it, come back with some other shit.” Songs like “Slayed,” off Lil B.I.G. Pac, serve as an example of Kodak’s delivery. Before the tape was out for the masses to hear, the Snipergang leader decided to use those same lyrics from the track for his 2016 XXL Freshman freestyle. “Hell yeah they call me Kodak but I ain’t come to take no picture/So icy, make it blizzard, and the lean I’m sippin’ sizzurp,” he rhymes.

  • THE HOOT Volume 1 October 2017 the Trip of a Lifetime by Elizabeth Mcgowan
    THE HOOT Volume 1 October 2017 The Trip Of A Lifetime By Elizabeth McGowan Timberlane gives many opportunities to students throughout the year. They give opportunities to go to shows, to get scholarships, and even to travel. This past summer one of these trips gave six Timberlane students the opportunity of a lifetime. On June 26th 2017, six Timberlane High School students and one chaperone boarded the airplane that brought them to Tanzania, Africa for 10 days, and these 10 days were days that they would never forget. However, the students preparation for this trip began long before June 26th. With a new country comes new diseases. In Tanzania there are many different diseases and viruses that you can contract that are very rare to get in the United States. For example, diseases and viruses such as malaria, hepatitis a, and typhoid are all much more common in Tanzania. Therefore, before going to Africa the students on the trip had to get the hepatitis a, and typhoid vac- cine, as well as take a malaria pill when they were on the trip. Tanzania, Africa is a very different place than the United States is. For example, in the United States you can rarely walk down the street without seeing someone in shorts, or a tight shirt. Howev- er, in Tanzania they are required to wear pants and it is looked down upon if you choose to wear tight clothing. Therefore, the students attending this trip packed solely pants, and loose shirts for the trip.
