My newest work of art!

I decided to do a freestyle to Jay z's run This town you know the one with some of the biggest pop stars of our time rihanna and kanye west. Due to the epic collaboration of talent and sound of the guitar I decided to do some editing and add visual effects and make a video. Here is the result. I make the jay-z response in the second verse not because I have beef with him or whatever but because I didn't agree with his statement Jesus can't save you in empire state of mind. I honestly don't know if he really meant that or if it was speaking of the character he was portraying. Hence the "I don't know what Jay on" anyways please enjoy this triumphant revolutionary dopeness. Peace and half, A

NEW JAPHIA LIFE!!

Japhia Life "Does Anybody Know" from Rapzilla.com on Vimeo.

Man I rock with Japhia Life and his partner in crime Rob Hodge as well. This is from Japhia Life's upcoming album "Nazareth" I always love the honesty and heart of his music and ministry. I think everyone wonders especially me if all this hope can actually be accessed or is it just hype. Sometimes even after you've found God you wonder if peace is real. Through depression, betrayal, hurt, loss, and trials you really wonder if ANYONE knows how to get to that place of peace. I have learned that peace is assumed and comes from a decision to fight and rejoice in the things you do have. Engaging in the present instead of the past or future helps me. God bless you all and hang in there. Please enjoy this heart wrenching soul thirsting dopeness. peace and a half, A

Song of the YEAR in my Opinion!

For those that don't know I called and hoped and prayed this would be Corinne Bailey Rae's next single. It just has that repeatable everlasting joyous feeling to it. It just soars musically and of course Corinne's voice just takes it to a different stratosphere. The beginning of the vid is how I pictured it in my mind except she was sitting on the other side of the table. I think if it gets the right airplay it can be song of the year. (I mean I did call viva la vida as soon as I heard it too) But I won't get too hype because come on I didn't write any of those songs haha. I am just excited because I have developed a good ear for singles which should help me in my process relatively soon. Anyways I love this song and Corinne is as I still state the voice of our generation. She is our Ella and sarah vaughn. Anyways please please pleeeease enjoy this


Heart soaring multi stratospherical dopeness

DEEOPE!! (Deep and dope)

Epik High is my favorite rap group in the WORLD! Their content and presentation is unmatched. Even as a marketing brand they always push the envelope. Their new CD "Epilogue' is available tomorrow MArch 9, 2010 on ITUNES! They always speak on real issues that others tend to overlook especially in popular media. Make sure you support these guys and their third member DJ Tukutz who is in the army in Korea. I pray for his safe return.

Please enjoy this inspirational heart wrenching dopeness.

Anybody know what I'm talking about haha. Anyways take a trip down memory lane and enjoy this animated moon walking dopeness. peace and a half, A

THE VOICE OF OUR GENERATION HAS RETURNED!

I am a firm believer that Corinne Bailey Rae is the voice of our generation. It's so unique and just arrests your soul whether you want it to be or not. This song and her future album "The Sea" will be about her process of grief after the sudden and tragic death of her husband Jason Rae (R.I.P.). I feel like I've been living the words to this song for 3 years (especially the part of the video where she's walking through people but feeling alone great job to the director of the video on that one). She truly has captured an immortal and eternal yearning of the human soul for someone on this earth to love. Very well captured. I pray she finds peace in the midst of her mourning God bless her. And wow she really is beautiful. Please enjoy this storm calming soul touching dopeness.

TIME IS ALL I FEAR!!

Mr. Hudson is a genius. I feel like this guy knows that everybody is secretly influenced by phil collins that is prominent and music today and he has just decided to fill this gap. I love the lyrics "Good friends you can count them on one hand and they won't judge you no matter your crime crime crime" I love this song because really time we are all trying to somehow beat the clock I guess or hide it's affects on us. I think it's good to know you may not have as much time as you think so get busy but take time and thank God for the time you do have on earth. Anyways Mr. Hudson's album "Straight No Chaser" is out in the UK but not yet state side. I CAN NOT WAIT!!

please enjoy this 80's tinged history making dopeness

SUPRA-DUPRA!!!

I don't even skate but I'll just wear these while playing tony hawk or something. Actually not so much. I love the black, gold, red and green ones it's so metallic. Anyways please enjoy this high toppin, ollie poppin dopeness.

Yea I kind of want to marry her!!

Ladies and Gentlemen the amazing HIROMI UEHARA!!! She is like Chick Corea, meets herbie, meets pharell, meets the most amazing pianist on earth. Man her facial expressions just show how deep she gets into her music. Watching these reminded me to play to create and express a feeling and not get so obsessed on making a hit. I think sometimes our generation we try so hard to make an "iconic" song or performance or whatever that we don't pay attention to the music. Our heads are into making history but not making music. So anyways off of my soap box here are some performances of her most amazing stuff. Check her out HIROMI UEHARA. oh yeah and her guitar player, and bassist are crazy as well. Please check out this mind boggling genre bending dopeness.

My new favorite super group!!

Man these guys Super Junior are KILLLING IT!!! They have been for a while but they just caught

my attention with their most recent album. They are a Korean group but this song is in Mandarin because

they are reaching their fanbase out in China. Anyways I love the interplay of the "oh-oh-oh-oh" and the

music it complements it PERRRFECTLY! and the video is perfect I want like a black glove haha.

And of course the stages in Korea are crrraaazzy. Here's their recent performance of this song at

the dream concert (which is kind of a big deal)

Please enjoy this cross cultural super coordinated dopeness!!

God Bless,

Already Home Freestyle ft. Kid Cudi

Already Home Blueprint 3 ACCHORD Freestyle from Allan-Charles Chipman on Vimeo.

So I did a freestyle yesterday to Jay-Z's already home and the bridge really stuck with me. For those of you who didn't know I struggled with clinical depression for a long time. And it kind of is the cancer of the soul that turns your own psyche against you. So when different people including a part of yourself are trying to take you down you just have to fight back. So if I seem cocky I'm really not I just do some stuff for wordplay and sometimes you gotta build yourself up you know? Anyways let me know what you guys think. Please enjoy this resilient inspirational dopeness.

God bless.

I DO LOVE YOU

This is one of my favorite Epik High Songs. I think it's a good response to the last post. I heard Tablo said when he was writing the album he felt God calling him to write about certain things. The subtitle to this song on the album is "Return to the Father." I wonder if it's true. It makes sense to me. God loves every piece of us even the mess we've made ourselves into. Like the one line I love the sight of your back ever shrinking away. God loves us even when we leave. Hence the second song by Epik High as well Called One, Tablo said he wrote this one to fans but the subtitle to this album is crown of thorns hmmmmm? what do you think. I love both of these songs and this is the type of music I try to make. A deep connection with something greater than all of us God, love, hope, faith, endurance, peace, and acceptance. who will you choose time is tickin tick tock time is tickin. Please enjoy and reflect on this contemplative, everlasting dopeness
