Love of the Soul
Just to let myself announce my peace .. Its only right to share my heart in the coldest of times. We as people need to embrace in the Inner self and not be moved by what is not love. Its sad and pathetic life when we are not giving and embracing true Love. With the meaning being the greatest intentions, expressions, respect, lessons, growth, information through sharing. Kepp your HEART as light as a feather and you will always have you …
today is my grandmother birthday lets all celebrate and enjoy this moment of greatness … know your family and embrace them, love them. They are all you got.
its like i’ll be in the sky .. i was talking to my brother this morning building before he left to goto church .. and he was saying when Jesus was around he was an inspiration that brought people together for the better good. And I explained to him its a positive gesture to help inspire people but a person has to also want what you have to give before they recieve it .. its some people out here that are so evil minded that they will take all your right information (support) and will neither help you when you need it or give you the same support .. i let him know that those acts are signs of your IGNORANCE. We as people must rise way beyond that primitive thinking and get Advanced with our “levels of education”. I meet plenty people with higher degrees and “smarts” etc .. but there belief system is so far behind its pitiful .. Reaction time is all off .. its a great thing to be wealthy (i guess ) but if you spend it all when you get it has no value because you were not able to afford your price of living >>THINK

Its time to drop the drama and gain love in your heart .. create to inform how you feel and detail your expression to those that know … love for love sakes ..

Marcellous Lovelace :: David Walker’s Travels :: Nephew of Frank Records
as reviewed by Pedro ‘DJ Complejo’ Hernandez
Marcellous Lovelace is a smooth name if ever I heard one. You’d expect it maybe from a 70s soul singer or as the lead character in the latest Blaxploitation film. Instead Marcellus Lovelace is the name of a very socially conscious emcee who is trying to make a change on the independent level. The social nature of Lovelace is evident on his cover art as it features various Black leaders, pyramids, and artwork depicting slaves on a slaveship. His album, “David Walker’s Travels,” is full of social and political themes and an overall uplifting message. It really is more of an EP, as the disk features only eight songs, with the rest of the album being filled with instrumental versions 7 of the songs and a spoken word poem ending the album. Lovelace takes full advantage of these 8 tracks, showing a lot of promise and positive thinking that might take him places with a little polish.
The production on “David Walker’s Travels” is good from start to finish. “Uncle Julius Mcadoo” features a laid back beat with a mellow loop. “Master of Papyrus” is actually a little bouncy when it comes to the drums and includes what sounds almost like a bagpipe sample, it sounds like an odd combination but it comes out dope. “Ain’t Nothing Left” features an uplifting string arrangement that sounds so majestic it could have been lifted from the score of an epic film. Outside of these highlights, the beats tend to be head-nodding, though sometimes too repetitive.
As an emcee, Lovelace shows a lot of promise, both flow-wise and thematically. On “Uncle Julius Mcadoo,” Lovelace relates his own life experiences and encounters with hatred all while urging people to stay true to themselves and not be afraid do their own thing. “Master of Papyrus” finds Lovelace spitting battle-type raps and actually dropping a few clever one-liners. “Ain’t Nothing Left” consists of introspective reflections on life and challenges the listener once again. It is his willingness to tackle such issues that makes Marcellus Lovelace noteworthy. The man is the emcee equivalent of civil rights leader, as he preaches pro-Black ideas without the violence or militant mindset often associated with such a stance. In a different world you could imagine Lovelace backing Marin Luther King while dead prez would be in Malcom’s corner. Though song titles like “Black Wall Street Missouri” and “Khufu” may seen unfamiliar and even abstract to some people, if they manage to get past that they will find a universal message that can be appreciated by all.
Flow-wise, Lovelace couples his positive message with a decent flow. He won’t blow you away with his mastery of flow, like say Biggie or Pun, but he holds his own on “David Walker’s Travels.” He spends the majority of his time taking on a conversational flow, almost speaking to himself, as he ponders the problems he sees in hip-hop and society overall. He even does a decent job as a battle rapper on “Master of Papyrus” as he shows that he can get back to the roots of hip-hop when he wants to.
With all the positive things that can be said about Marcellus Lovelace, it should be noted that as all artists, there is always room for improvement. Being only 8 songs long, it is still unknown how Lovelace would hold up during an entire album. His mic presence could also use some work as the raw talent is there but it is not as refined as it could be. His political and social stance could also alienate listeners who can’t see the universal message found beyond the surface. But overall Lovelace has succeeded in his mission with “David Walker’s Travels” by staying true to himself and creating good music in the process.

Cause Im special
Not the average kind
Who’d accept any line
That sounds good
So reach into your chain of thoughts
Try to find something new
Because what worked for you so well before
For me it just wont do.
Chorus
So reach into your chain of thoughts
Try to find something new
What works so well with you before
For me it just wont do
Chorus(repeat)
