The manuscript Blue Lines is the fictional coming of age narrative of a young California woman Key Yemaya Walker, and her 2 year growing journey through school, love, and life period piece, written by Kenneth Suffern, Jr., taking place at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill between the years of 1997 – 1998. Loosely based on true events, and experiences during that time, told through the eyes and voice of the main female protagonist, a freshman first attending the school.

Hip-Hop Quotable Wednesdays – Black Star “Twice Inna Lifetime”

Black Star, Hip-Hop Quotable Wednesdays, Mos Def, Talib Kweli, Twice Inna Lifetime

[Talib Kweli]
Yo, we been through this before right? (Word, word…) So we
figurin’, if we gonna do it, we gotta freak it, y’know what I’m sayin?
(True, true, true…) Cuz everything gotta go up from here, right?
So Hi-Tek, turn it up a notch…

[Jane Doe]
Hail Mary, ‘matta fact hail Jane
Niggaz take my name in vain/vein like I was cocaine
My affirmations kill emcees like assasination
Bringin’ you pain until you wish you had a vaccination
Or vaccine, I shine like Vaseline
Gas plays like petroleum, walk over them like linoleum
My vocab expand like a rubber band
Walkin’ nekkid through the motherland, give the finger to my brotherman
Niggaz just don’t understand my reasons, I transcend like season
And scar these rappers like legion
It’s treason, my suspension attract attention
I’m ventin’, givin’ these chickenheads detention
Did I mention my name, yo, go by the Jane Doe

[Hook]
Even the sun goes down heroes eventually die.
Horoscopes often lie and sometimes “y”
nothin’ is for sure nothin’ is for certain nothin’ lasts forever
But until they close the curtain
it’s him & I Aquemini

[Big Boi]
Now is the time to get on like Spike Lee said
get on the bus go get your work
and keep your beeper chirpin’ is a must
Is you on that dust or cornstarch
familiar with that smack man
The music is like that green stuff
