No Surprise (free) 02:13
A third of these rap cats Is only in for the money Ain’t nothing funny ‘Bout how they pimp the game Like something awful Another third of these cats Be sporting backpacks Coming with their underground raps To mash up in the cypha And then the final third They speak the word When they be spitting They get in where they fit in With these verses they be ripping As for me I’m an anomaly That means I’m something special When I spit sixteen Theses spoken lyrics are the vessel My tongue is the pen Of a ready writer So I capture And like the rapture I come to snatch ya from disaster I’m only after Seeking Christ-like in my status While others represent I present to you what matters His eye on the sparrow So I spread my wings To fly How high Can we get If overdosing on the spirit Can you hear it? Catch my vibe I’m going strictly God-core So if you didn’t come to praise Then tell me What you here for?

Dialogue: Before I came to know Him, I was living foul. Let me tell you how I lived. . . Verse: I ain’t nothing But a lying fornicating thief A murderous villain Fulfilling dreams of trying to be the chief But No matter how I scam My life is filled with grief Reaching for the top Which means I’m buried underneath Like six feet deep Instead of living I’m asleep Not once I realized That what you sow is what you reap And now I wander aimlessly I’m lost just like a sheep As I cry out to my father For my soul to keep Still I don’t get it Cause I’m living like a creep I keep my head under the sheets Trying not to make a peep Frontin’ like I’m hard While internally I weep I’m too cheap to pay the price But for His grace I still seek To come into my life And plug my spirit like a leak From my head to my feet Forgive my sins like delete He died for me On a lower case tee And now I live for him Everyday Of every single week Dialogue: That’s how it was before I knew Him. Then I invited Him. But Now that I’m transformed, All these haters show their face. Trying to keep me down. They don’t want me to shout His name. As a matter of fact, They attacking me – trying to discourage me. Trying to keep me quiet. Check out how they do. . . Verse: They thought they could contain me Silence me And defame me They even put a plan in place To shock the world and blame me They getting angry So they call my show a spectacle Spittin’ ‘bout Jesus in public Is unacceptable I feel like mommas tellin’ baby’s Eat your vegetables But y’all don’t want no parts Of what I try to do What’s best for you As for the rest of you I see y’all Running round town Acting like clowns Like y’all haven’t got a clue Daily I die to self Cause self is dying in this skin Opened up my heart So Jesus Christ Stepped in Then I begin again And like that song entitled Michael Finnegan I’ll never end Repping Him Until the day He comes again I’m in the mission fields Spittin’ ‘bout the gospel The natives getting restless While the critics getting hostile And even though I may be martyred like apostles To live is gain To die is Christ I’m only doing God’s will Dialogue: And that’s how it is. If it’s not by His will for His will, Then it’s not getting done. Y’all will see. One day soon . . .

Praverb: I have to be real, At times I am a jealous person When I'm asleep, I know that the devil's working Trying to find loop holes, yes he's steady searching Whisper in my ear, trying to correct the sermon I'm not perfect, not abiding by the Bible I pray every night that I survived homicidal Attempts, Been exempt, from the devilish devices Hell is what I been through, Heaven is so enticing Some say I wear my heart on my sleeve Tried the hardest to achieve, got loss with degrees Loss what I believe, started to settle for this cheese Push the peddle, give me keys, I gotta stop I love hip-hop but pardon me please Just a starving artist in debt, Pardon the fees The market is collapsing, no market for emcees So I'm back to the cornfield, to harvest these seeds Idiomz: Twin decades fall like the twin towers I struggle to maintain As I see these final hours Approaching from the rear Cause I’m a forty year-old rapper Seasoned I’m a vet But now anything can happen Young cats rapping ‘Bout the swag they maintain While older heads remind them That ain’t nothing really changed In the game To get the fame But they forgot about the love Claiming major label status Cause they got a lickle buzz Industry rule four thousand eighty-two Says that Everybody’s rapping now So who the heck are you So when you step into this stable Bring your skills to the table Cause either you’re a legend Or you’ll end up as a fable Music It’s like a drug For it I’m fiending everyday Even more than my music I need the Lord And so I pray Cause even long after I hang up My microphone I’m a spit the name of Christ Until the day I go home

Dialogue: What is the Gemini effect? It’s the act of altering the truth to appeal to the desires of the masses. In other words, telling them what they want to hear in order to gain something out of it . . . Verse 1 – Idiomz: I can’t believe what I be hearing Bait and switch on a hook Just like a trap Cause they be snaring Seeking out trophy heads Like taxidermist be preparing Orphaning the younger generation No one’s caring Manipulated truths indulging in idolatry Crafty spoken lyrics Symbolically in their poetry And even though we’re ‘sposed to Test every spirit Complacency overtakes us We accept it when we hear it Afraid to draw the line because of toes That we may step on But I’m a drive these nails into the cross So we can press on Refuse to lay it down like a mattress Getting slept on Taking it to the masses in the gutter Getting crept on The Gemini effect ain’t business as usual Pulling them back like cuticles Exposing you like plain view And when it hits the fan They only ever want to blame you Singular train of thought Derails the track so they can shame you Verse 2 - J. Hakeem I spit that sick asphidity Vitamins and minerals Gangsters with principles And educated criminals No reservations Just tomahawks and Seminoles Looking for a fix This romance is chemical Yo Who the reason emcees So cynical I apply pressure Tween the third and fourth ventricle Water on the brain Got a subconscious swimming pool Archimedes principle Hang to every syllable Define the pinnacle when rhyming is dependable A miracle how time can turn A slave into a general I'm out in Babylon sweating in the hot sun As-Salāmu `Alaykum Even strapped during Ramadan And I would hate to get Blood on my uniform Writing my expression in the birth place Of cuneiform This is the Gemini effect on a Libra Need more proof Tune in for the sequel Verse 3 – Idiomz: Third time’s a charm Ring the alarm against the heathens Conquer the chosen people Like the King Nebuchadnezzar Neo-Babylonian Babbling on their own again Drowning in self-indulgent sin Cut off from their home again Towering like infernos Internal combustion chambers Spewing like molten magma Like anime forms to manga Perverted rituals indulgent like Caligula Hollywood fictitious portrayal Like Dirk Diggler Sinister representatives Representing the sinners Veterans of the pulpit Intermingled with beginners Racing to find the finish in the end There’s still no winners Running around in circles like four tops Call them the spinners Double talk Back and forth Selling their lies like politicians Hiding behind the cross in their disguise To look like Christians Even their forked tongues can’t hide the venom They be spitting Exposing the effect That’s my mission So listen Verse 4 - J. Hakeem Blood sweat and tears Ink stains from a pen This is what it feels like Eating in the lion's den The age of reasoning Philosophers And science men Anchored like the pyramids And other pebbles in the sand Yo Who you know That got Ex-felons for their mentors And still posses intelligence To qualify for Mensa I spit that righteousness That fuel for the contenders That substance of some sustenance So please return to sender These fools ain't worried 'Bout how they 'gon be remembered So I hope their knees are sturdy And their vertebra is limber My wordplay is embers And you 'gon need a blender To dilute the potency Serve them like bartenders Facing a hard winter While rappers hibernating I'm in this cold world searching For a thawed dinner I'm heating up Just like a summer in Caracas This a warning to imposters Leave them shook like a maracas And I'm out

Dialogue: A yo what up Idiomz It's Mephstaddox You want me to rhyme about Friday? Yo, That's easy Everyday is Monday in my world, son! I got a little something for you though . . . . Verse 1 - Mephstaddox: A yo A yo A yo It's Friday night I just got paid No celebrating tonight I just got sprayed By a rubber duckie Or maybe more like glade My two year-olds version of lemonade Bath times over Now wash plates Pans Thank the Lord that it's eight P - M Read 'em a story and say goodnight (goodnight) Threaten their dear lives If they put up a fight Take a shower Put on my evening clothes Going downstairs To watch some shows But by ten-thirty My snores start to grow And by eleven p-m Wifey's throwing me elbows Man Everyday of my life feels like Monday man Hear what I said? Everyday of my life feels like Monday But I still find time to thank God it's Fri-day It's Fri-day What you got to say to that Haha! Dialogue: Yo What I got to say to that? Did you just ask me what I got to say to that? You know what I'm a tell you what I got to say to that Matter of fact I'm gonna tell you like this Verse 2 - Idiomz: Monday I'm late for work Because I caught a flat tire Tuesday I'm out of work Because I just got fired Wednesday I'm unemployed So I sleep a little later Knowing that I'm okay Because my faith in Him is greater Thursday I make a plan So I can stand back on my own two But in the mean time I make connections with my crew Cause on Friday (Friday) I'm gonna do it my way Collect my last check So I can pay my bills right away Not much left But then I didn't need a lot Promised wifey date night And so I hit the Redbox Value menu at McDonalds Now we got something to snack on Before we watch the flick I take a sec to get my rap on Forgot the popcorn So now its back to the store On my way out the door Tripped on a shoe Left on the floor But I couldn't ask for more I thank the Lord for another day But in particular Thank God it'd Friday Dialogue: Haha! And that's another Friday in the books My man Mephstaddox KingVerse on the beat Idiomz And we out like shout Haha! Them young cats They don't know nothin' 'bout that We out like shout That's some old school stuff right there

about

This isn’t a term that you hear on a regular basis unless you are in some business circles. It refers to a tenet of a marketing strategy.

In business marketing, the Gemini effect includes an incentive, a freebie and a hook – all of which have been crafted for the sake of building customer loyalty.

Politically, the Gemini effect is the tactic of telling voters what they want to hear, while concealing a hidden political agenda – for the purpose of securing votes while gaining political power.

The Gemini effect in religion is similar to the Gemini effect in business and politics. After all, present day Christianity is big Business. And there is no denying that it is up to its neck in politics. How many times have you witnessed a doctrine being taught that promises a divine result through the use of manipulated scripture all the while the teacher is growing in power???

Musically, I have teamed up with producer King Verse to bring to you a five song EP entitled THE GEMINI EFFECT. The incentive: you will be thoroughly entertained. The freebie: this will be a free download. The hook: guest features by lyricists Praverb The Wyse, Mephstaddox and J. Hakeem.

The Gemini Effect is a mini project featuring the production talents of King Verse from Iceland and Idiomz da Prophesayer. It is a mix of boombap inspired beats, unadulterated lyricism and spiritual influence packaged together to give the listener a truly unique experience. But rather than draw you into some hidden agenda or manipulated doctrine, the intent of this project is clear: give you what commercialism has stripped away from music and keep you coming back for more.
