2twenty2 is the first collab of the two Switzeland based producers. Having the Funk, Rap & Soul of the past 50 years in their bones they create a new Sound with their new upcoming Album. Featuring Burni Aman from Capetown and MISS C-LINE from Switzerland this song presents a mixture between Alternative Rap, Neo-Soul and Spoken word over a meditative yet pulsing beat.
It's two twenty two and ev-ery-thing seems so very new
Went from in love, to people that we never knew
Went from skyline shining a hella blue
To a dark grey cloud in ...whatever hue...
Dec-i-de, you can try, you can colour too
Know my pallet is a different kinda pallete boo
I can stand on my own, no cinderalla shoe
I'm on the same brain wave out in Malibu
Remember cape town, the breakdown, were hella cool
Then the shake down, the hey now, you hella fool
Now we dealing with that salmonella residue
You can mozzarella throw some cheddar like nigella do
We were toxic, far from being edible
You became the kinda fella, tell a woman what to do
You wanted Mary, a Penny or a Peggy sue
But i'm a jaguar, a peacock in a Delhi zoo
#VERSE
It's that time and that season where everything just feels right
We on the wrong side of the right road but we feel like free
Flowing like a river, we be steady in a stream
Met you on the corner of what's real and a dream
That was then, this is now and it aint all what it seems
We more like a city with the hustle in between
... huh...you know disgusting as it seems...that's life... it's the aging, the changing of the greens
It's the growing, the naming, the changing of your seeds
It's the down in your feeling when the up is all you need
It's the walking away when you strong enough to grieve
It's the breaking, the building, the praying and belief
Thinking you were everything, i'm everything i need
That's the message, a lesson, a lesson in self esteem
You reflected my lack of a backbone it seems
And i reflected the cracks in the walls of your dream
#OUTRO
If you must know of tommorow and know of it today
know of the sorrows that might cause you a delay
know of the blessings that are coming your way
Do you think that you the blessed might fall to your knees and then pray
Or will you look for the trappings a hunter might set for his prey
Or do you think that knowing the new day, you might not live, live for today
There's a treasure trove of future promises
But also ...hidden pit falls in hidden provinces of your heart
Are they better left wrapped and drowning in coral or clay
Buried in sand pits with all of your childhood broken buckets and spades
Or shall we go out and play
Come my love let's seize, seize the day
Wir sind davon angetrieben, die plumpen und trostlosen Genregrenzen zu strapazieren, Leute zusammenzubringen und
Vokalist*innen mit bauchaufweichenden doch schnörkellosen Groove ins Beste Licht zu rücken.
Das tun wir als Backing Band.
Das tun wir beim Veröffentlichen von Eigenproduktionen.
Das tun wir als Fundament von der Berner Jamsession The Talk!
Immer alles verwurzelt im Hip-Hop und Soul....more
