My new favorite song.. God Bless the Child..

Jim Jones is definitely someone I usually don't check for. I'm a big Dipset fan, but Capo was one I never understood. As time progresses though, I realize a lot of my squad and rap comrades feel Jim. That makes me usually go back and reevaluate an artist, because there may be something I didn't catch. Now, the more I hear Capo recently, I have been diggin' his shit. Not so much lyrically,but just the production he picks and how he puts things together. On Saturday night Ricky Martin (The singer) was playing in Newark at The Prudental Center where my older brother works.He got my mother and aunt tickets to go so of course they were super excited. Me and my oldest brother's job was to get them there. So, what we did was drop them off and use the wait time of the show to go bust a grub with our wives at me and my brother's favorite place to eat, Rio Rodizio. Formerly known as Seabras Rodizio. This place is unbelievable, to say the least. They got the illest fried bananas and cinnamon pineapple you can ever imagine.After that wonderful experience, we had to drive home in a monsoon of rain. On my ride home , I was lucky to tune into Hot 97, which I don't get the chance to do often. Not sure who was spinning at that time of day. They played this joint where they used the Big Daddy Kane sample "God bless the child that can hold his own" from one of my favorite jams ever, "Raw". It was Wyclef that I heard doing his thing over ths beat using that sample. Shit was fuck'n nasty! It's so refreshing when I hear joints like this but I heard half of the song and they switched to something else. Next day I tweeted that I heard this Clef joint, blah blah blah, but I was on my phone. My man Kev Turner @KevTeezy (follow on Twitter)replied and searched it. It turned out to be a Jim Jones joint off of his new Capo album featuring Clef. Like I said Capo, I'm just really getting to get familiar with, so I'm excited about this song, and now I'm about to cop this "Capo" album off of Itunes and see what else is offered . I hope you guys enjoy this song, it's fuck'n ridiculous IMO.
