Lyrics | Heritage Hip-Hop

Moxie is defined as the force of character, determination or nerve. Moxie is what Hip-Hop all about. It takes nerve to stand for something that the world is collectively against. How dare those people want to be heard! How dare those people for wanting equality and the want/desire to matter! Hip-Hop exist because there was a void of identity representing the peoplet that wanted to be acknowledged in the world.

Today's world has a bigger acceptance of Hip-Hop but the same issues are here and the music in the mainstream view has been shifted towards a mainstay of violence, sexism and drug usage. There is a J.Cole and a Kendrick Lamar for people to identify for the new generations of Hip-Hop listeners but those that do not follow the current movement the masses always ask who is going to take the baton and lead the way for a new voice to lead the current and newer generations in positive, thought provoking life changing music? Musa Major plans to answer that question with a cause that is for the people by one of its' own.

Musa Major has a story that is one that speaks of overcoming the odds to become a voice for the people not one that is lost in the crowd. From "Prisoner to President", taking ownership of the trials and tribulations of life and the lessons he had learned. Musa is dropping a project that talks about his life and the experiences he draws his parables from to show the listener there IS a way and the choices we make will determine where we will go. Conversations that revolve around the system, classism, racism, and relationships all give the listener a chance to reflect on their lives or have a chance to consider their own life to consider how and why they live the life they choose. Moxie will give the listener something we all are fighting for and that is...the chance to live a life that we choose.

Moxie is an album that when sat with and listened to, the person that takes this music in will become a thinker and that is the measure of a man. A man is judge by how he holds and controls his spirit but for the women it gives them a chance to hear the pain and love from a male point of view that is not often shared when we live the lie of the "opposite sex" concept. Moxie is an album that will challenge the minds of the listener and also with beats that talk to the spirit this will be a project that will change lives and make Musa Major a movement when it comes not only to music but healing the community giving hope to those that hear his message.

Here is the interview we did on the project:

After dropping one of the hottest verses of the year last year, Cheef Bali returns to drop a new mixtape on the world to remind everyone that real bars matter. Pre Rolls takes everyone back to the feel of when MCs made their presence known to the world that not only did they have something to say, but you had better watch what you say when the time to battle comes around.

Pre Rolls is a collection of songs that Cheef Bali says "He had but wanted to put out to remind people how nice he is." After listening to this mixtape it is evident that Cheef feels he has a lot to prove and a lot to say to people that have slept on his skill set and his ability to bring beats to life. Not only does Cheef Bali describe himself as an MC but he shows his musicianship in many ways. Touching Afro Beats and Soulful lyrics over ballads, this mixtape was made to remind the public that the bars are not lacking and this is his gift to everyone that does not put him in the conversation of being one of the best artists out in NJ and Hip-Hop's independent music scene period.

Pre Rolls is a free mixtape available right now on HeritageHipHop.com right now so after reading this blog become a member of the website and get your free download of this mixtape.
