08/04/2023 Click here for Spotify, Apple Music, or Youtube. “Mitten Kingz” is my 53rd official release. This song is a display of talent and an introduction to my music and it’s contents. The song was self-recorded but produced and the beat is from KeyAno while Gigzlogo from Fiverr made the cover art.
I made this track because I wanted to feature an artist bigger than me in hopes to grow my audience. I bought the exclusive to the beat. Just like with the “With You” track the feature (in this case Jay) wrote his own verse after I gave him a quick summary of what the song’s subject was about. I plan on doing more of these (like Mitten Kingz 2 or 3) when I come across more Michigan artists I wanna work with.
I didn’t talk about this blog post but you can see the latest Sunday update here:
Lyrics:
Eric Leo 108
Jay Matthews
Jay Matthews
Who got bars, we got bars
Bump this while your in your car
Riding through Benton Harbor
Detroit, Battle Creek, or Marshall
We mitten kingz, we get these G’s
Give good luck to the industry
We are originality
Independent free mentality
(108)
Matter fact, pay my publishing
And we can call it even see
This the business, and yeah I can read
But I control my destiny
Ain’t a trapper sippin lean
I’m a business for the people's needs
Auditory and visually
Original artistry
Who gonna tell you the facts with
The earth tilted on its axis
With The distance from the planets
108 is the pattern
And the oligarchy stratified
The spending power that you buy
Took your wealth, and told you lies
And bought the stocks, As they rise
Watching record carbon heights
Of carbon metrics as they tie
Into petro chemicals
As the reason why the climate rose
But enough about the Astronomy
Ecology and the economy
I just want you to Vibe with me
Spread love and positivity
Let’s take a photo, share on socials
Along with rap featured vocals
Is really what I’m all about
Spreading love by word of mouth
Bumping this music loud
Tracks about what happened now
Where what why and how
Are questions that they ask around
(Let’s go)
Who got bars, we got bars
Bump this while your in your car (yeah)
Riding through Benton Harbor
Detroit, Battle Creek, or Marshall (let’s go)
We mitten kingz, we get these G’s
Give good luck to the industry
We are originality
Independent free mentality
Bro I don't know half what you said (Just listen)
But go and rep my city till I'm filled with lead (yeah)
Sometimes I get the gist that I'm better off dead (nope)
Yeah my brain gets all twisted I get lost in my head (let’s get it)
But break bread with soldiers who are Michigan bred
Rep my city Gun Rue till there hit with the feds
I ain't a gangster homeboy, not a scientist either
I want this earth to burn, bring hell on a feature
But I sit inside the school and I hear from the teachers
That my children’s children’s children, will miss all of the creatures
Earth will probably burst, apocalypse from the preachers
So I sit inside and listen to all the speakers
I'm playing in this game while yall sit on the bleachers
Wanna go to war I got a flame for the ether
Going down boy, there's panic at the disco
Save the planet now, play all your chips like Nabisco
Who got bars, we got bars
Bump this while your in your car
Riding through Benton Harbor
Detroit, Battle Creek, or Marshall
We mitten kingz, we get these G’s
Give good luck to the industry
We are originality
Independent free mentality
