Blood Brothers response verse!

12/17/2012

0 Comments

 
Wassup everyone! Check out this verse I made as a response to my crew Shadow of the Locust's new song they recently released for free. 

One of my favorite things to do is write lyrics. This one came out pretty well but it would sound much better recorded on the actual beat. Maybe I'll do that sometime. Mostly I just did this for fun though. 

You can check out the original song plus many more songs from my crew for free here!

Also here's the Lyrics if your interested:
(please don't critique the grammar and spelling lol...  I don't usually write my lyrics for anyone's eye's but mine)

-Cuz blood is thicker then blood, river's of love flood
when think of my brothers, miss um gotta hit um up
-Tip of the tongue, always ready to lift um, 
..up to the father, never let the enemy get um

-I got ya back bro, in and out of battle
cuz the devil plays games, this is life it aint hasbro
-my homies don't play that, we all hear the Shepherds voice
with our hearts, with our minds and choice we obey that

-never keep it in the family, we extend our hand out to lands
and sea's emcee's last, first charity
-First with sincerity each brother like a pair of pea's 
when I see your eye's I'm seein God, that's therapy

-We bonded, we grafted, from cradle to casket
I mourn when you cry, en I'm happy when you laugh kid
-and if we don't see eye to eye we movin arm n arm 
separated by states, but our home's in the same place

-whether goofin off, laughin at dude's with shake weights
or diggin crates, music's not all that we create
-we share fates and our live's as we wait
on this fellowship through storms and waves for Yahweh!

Thanks for stopping by!

God Bless,
-Marshall aka Calmplex

New Painting Locust Style!

This weekend I spent some time on google hangouts drawing and painting with random art buddies. This is one of the pieces that came out of it! 

I haven't done a whole lot with painting but it's becoming a nice alternative to coloring digitally and coloring with markers. I'd have to say this is probably my most successful painting to date! I'm really happy with how it turned out. Hope you like it!

If you're interested in something like this as a commission I'll do these on 5 x 7 pre made canvas boards for $25.  Purchase Here!

My Music is now Free!

11/13/2011

You can now download my Solo Album free on Bandcamp!!!

It took me a while to come to this decision but I've realized that while making money from my music is a goal I would like to achieve some day the real reward is actually in the process of creating and sharing my passion.

I do this, and have always done this, for the love of doing it and I would much rather that you have the chance to listen and share my music for free than have it hiding behind a pay wall.

I put a too much of my blood sweat and tears into what I do for it to be sitting in the catacombs of obscurity.

I believe in this project and am very proud and happy to be able to offer it to you for free so please come on over to the Bandcamp page and get your Free Download of Solar Wind Theory and share it with your friends!!!

(hint, hint, my classic Collaboration album B-Sides First is also available for Free Download as well so while your there you might as well fill up your mp3 player with some more good music ;) )

_SOLAR WIND THEORY
You may have heard the rumblings. You may have felt the wind breeze your skin. The Shadow of the Locust crew has been hinting at a movement for years and is assembling its troops as God shifts His chess pieces.
In it’s newest chapter a producer/emcee is emerging from the Locust ranks with a gust of rebirth and a sword for the adversaries of the Lord. This year Calmplex is approaching the game with his full length debut solo album "Solar Wind Theory".

Experience Hip-Hop! Fertile with real life, explorations in faith and lyrical precision. Listen as Shadow of the Locust founder Dirt hosts with narrative from the original documents that perpetuated the locust vision.

The earth is in a state of epic tensions between contrasting influences and powers. We can’t help but feel the heat of the Son penetrating earths atmosphere. Now is the time to discover the sounds of Calmplex and open your ears to the "Solar Wind Theory".

Music produced and written by Calmplex with special guests including Dirt, Mouth Warren, Codak, Reveal, Disciple X, Dose, and Elle Es.

Hosted by: Dirt (Shadow of the Locust founder and visionary)
Mixed and Mastered by: Codak www.thelabaddictz.com
Lyrics by: Calmplex with features by Dirt, Reveal, Mouth Warren, Codak, Disciple X, Dose, and Elle Es
Artwork Design by: Calmplex
Production by: Calmplex

Stop for Locust!

Locust O.C.D.

Hey everyone just wanted to do a little update! I did this little drawing of a locust hangin from a stop sign the other day just on a whim trying to stay productive. No big concept just a locust hangin :) If you are wondering what my constant obsession with locusts is it's because my Hip Hop crew is called Shadow of the Locust which was originally envisioned by Dirt the founder when reading Joel Chapter 2  from the bible one day. He actually just recently finished a music video of an old track from his album The Plague that gets into the vision a bit if you'd like to check it out http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=79opcqAcSr4&feature=player_embedded !!! But yea this drawing was fun to do and I plan on adding some color to it hopefully soon!

Custom Graffiti

Also for all my Hip Hop heads out there I just put up a new listing on Etsy where you can get a custom Graffiti piece by yours trully for the low low price of $20. So if that sounds like something of interest to you feel free to head on over to my Etsy Shop and get yours!

God Bless,
-Calmplex
