Mastered by Rykashay. Beat by Black Milk!

-Averis- (NC)

White and nerdy. Now, with 25% more nerd.

Averis (Casey Carter), a Jacksonville, North Carolina native, is a young emcee making moves in the North Carolinian and Virginian hip hop underground. He started his career in January 2009, recording with Rykashay, a female emcee and producer from Winston-Salem, North Carolina. Then, a long time Internet acquaintance, StayHigh (James White) from Statesville, North Carolina, approached him about working together and within six months they had finished an as of yet unreleased album tentatively titled the AK Tracks. From there, Averis began making music with his blood cousin, Tekone (Chad Carter), Virginia Beach, Virginia representative and Forbidden City co-founder, and they began recording immediately. In less than six months they have written and produced nearly 40 tracks, and are waiting impatiently for the new year and what the release of their album "Averis+Tekone presents... C.Carters" will bring. Averis is now recording for the C.Carters project, Mike Walla (Michael Woolard) of Forbidden City's new album, and various Forbidden City affiliated mixtapes and projects.

Story behind the song

I fell in love with Detroit hip hop all over again when I first heard Black Milk. The Tronic was f*** ing diesel, but this beat is one that he never rapped on. If I'm not mistaken it's off the Color Purple beat tape. This is basically me showing some love to one of my favorite producers/emcees.

Lyrics

Props to those that taught us flows and now we're handing it down,
But I go to shows and crowds'll just be standing around,
With their hands down, I'm hands down the man now,
And they stand out on stage blazed, they don't understand how,
To make a plan and stick to it, quick do it, get through it,
Spit fluid, and don't stop, props to those that were taught to flow,
And didn't pick it up to get the chips and get some love,
And those that give it up without a thought for who the rapper is,
Or what he said just laughing 'cause his clothing was immaculate,
Inaccurate, No fact to it, And f** s back the whackest kids,
Preaching abstinence but never have the sense to practice it,
F*** ing the game up when it ain't pumped as it is,
It's hazardous to battle kids when half of them are jacked as sh** ,
Ready to crack their fists so you really cain't react to it,
I have to get in touch with f*** ing labels actin' rich,
Rhymebook's attractin' looks, I'm lookin' to book a contract for this,
But the cash is just a part of that 'cause cats will pat me on the back,
Ask me how I thought of that and if it's really hard to rap,
It's not, 'cause most have got a total disregard for rap,
While I've been working hard as crap to totally bombard the track,
Until I honor rap and garner plat-inum from all the tracks,
'Til half of them are falling back and all the cats want autographs,
My bars'll leave 'em seeing stars when I wasn't even swinging hard,
And put 'em on the map to see the stars like cartographs,
He deceives the smartest rappers with the code that's hard to crack,
Flows that 'cause applause when the curtain calls like Jaws with shark attacks,
And get the club hoppin' like bars that don't card or mark the back,
-A-ya hands, I rap to see the fans packing the stands,
From the east and moving west like I guess we're lacking the land,
Since rap is back in demand, we should demand a supply,
Of rhymes that shine enough to find your hands over ya eyes,
Going after owning rappers, so sign and hand over ya rights...
