Name: Jeremy Blum
Nicknames: Blummer, JB, JAB, Shoryu
Crew: Nerds While AZN
Nationality: Half White, Half Asian (you figure out the exact mix)
Biggest Musical Influences - Mike Shinoda, Tiger JK (of Drunken Tiger), Tablo (of Epik High)
I started rapping in 2003 years ago, mainly because I really loved hip-hop and wanted to try creating my own musical works. I quickly found out that I had a knack for it, and I also discovered that I loved making music and sharing it with the world. I originally began rapping with my crew, Nerds While AZN (if you haven't already, you should check our group site out @ soundclick.com/nerdswhileazn) but since then I've mostly done solo work and have finished three mixtapes on my own. I hope you'll enjoy my music, find something that you think sounds tight, and come away with a few favorites. Thanks.
Lyrics
Blummer - BlEsS tHe MICROPHONE!
(feat. DMK)
(chorus - Blummer)
life's a strain and you just can't maintain
your effort's in vain, you lose what you gain
but no time to mourn, though you might feel torn
bless the microphone 'till the early morn
the days are cold, and the nights are colder
the years go by, and you get ever older
all you can do is go on and atone
and weigh the pain of your life with the microphone
(Blummer)
i don't even know why i rap
i'm deficient, like a keg with a broken tap
joint sound hittin' out, freestyle or written down
the flow's played out, i need to get myself a new style
but i'm so lacking, without any drive
i feel like i'm stuck in a straight 9 to 5
life's a bitch and then you die, and i don't know why
i've got to try to cover up my cries
boys don't cry, the old saying goes
so i hide what i feel, try to stay on my toes
i'm leaving home real soon, i thought it'd be easy
now i see that it's not, and it's making me queasy
responsibility and struggle, all i got in store
at the same time my family affairs feel like a war
another argument, i wish i were gone
but the beat goes on, 'till the break of the dawn
(chorus)
(DMK)
the pain starts now, it's in your mind,
trying to rewind to good times left behind
the ignorance high, completely unaware
of the cold, old world that's so unfair
life loses purpose beyond trivial games
memorize Scrabble moves, Pokemon names
no work satisfies, every word belies
that other lie, which defies the meaning implied
ask why? don't know, every dream eyed denied
wise guy works hard, but cuts pizza pie
says goodbye to the day, it zips right by
with nothing done, dry eyes, and just a cry
of loneliness, i feel the phoniness
like Holden Caulfield, one chance to express
pick up the mic, finesse through the mess
address the excess decadence with success
(Blummer) x2
hey you, get off my cloud
you don't know me and you don't know my style
(chorus)
(Blummer)
littered with disappointments, my life story
downward trends ruin any short glory
i thought it'd be a breeze when i got into college
but my world got harder, i was lacking in knowledge
conflicts to meet, i was all alone
to face everyday what seemed like a broken home
folks would ask me why i looked so down
it's kinda sad when your face is always stretched in a frown
but that's how it is, i never had a best friend
never someone to ride with me straight to the end
moments of depression, emotions a whirl
falling too easily for every pretty Asian girl
i've helped a zillion with their problems, probably you
but how many know about Blum's? very few
still, i guess it's okay, i don't need a best friend
just my voice and a mic to see it to the end
(Blummer) x2
hey you, get off my cloud
you don't know me and you don't know my style
(chorus)
