ILL K Entry 82 "HEART IN FLAMES"

DASH




Dash feat. Artstrong - Heart In Flames (Produced by Dash)


FROM DIGGITY DASH: I wrote this song, Heart In Flames back in 2007. I had personal problems going on and with all that happening I made a beat then the words. That time Artstrong was also working on the Elite Star Pilots track for The Transformers Movie & ESP Project (Shoutout to my boy Deeleet!!) and asked if he could do the hook. He did and ultimately killed it!!

My inspiration for making this track was Transformers, Manny PacQ, Jay-Z's "Fade To Black" movie and just personal triumphs and lows. Still relevant in our daily lives just like when Michael Jordan said at the end of his Hall Of Fame induction speech "Never say never because limits like fear are often an illusion".


When you take risk in life and get to do the hardest thing
Stay focused on your goal, cause you don't know what tomorrow will bring
When you Eenvision yourself to be what you ever dreamed
STAY FOCUS ON YOUR GOAL, KEEP YOUR HEART IN FLAMES


As Filipinos, we're passionate people to the fullest. Even if we're struggling we still have time to smile. Our hearts are made of gold & with God in it. He's the fuel that fires you're heart. This track will be on my project called "Return Of The Phunky Juan". It's my soundtrack to the streets and clubs as well, but it's more on the foundation, some real Hip Hop ish, all in all, 10 tracks.

The reason for the title ss to bring sack that old funk that's been missing. If y'all know your Flip-Hop history, Legit Misfitz's first album, we had a track called "Phunky Juan De la Cruz", and this project is close to a stretched part 2. Creativity, quality and a good heart for the culture is the main ingredient of this album. I got major guest MC's blessing it, with beats by my production outfit "BEATS OF THE NORTH STAR".

It won't stop even after this, we're here to serve, protect and to preserve The Kulture Of Hip Hop in it's positive state. "PEACE UNITY LOVE AND HAVING FUN" these are the words of Afrika Bambataa and "I AM HIP HOP" from KRS-ONE (Temple/Gospel Of Hip Hop). A big shoutout to everyone who's been a part of Mighty Joe's life, ya'll know who you are, much love & respect. I would like to leave you with a verse from this track:


Eyes gently open at the crack of dawn,
Yes Im waking up to a brand new morning
Jump in the shower brush my teeth to give it a gleam
Time to get A move on, gotta get that cream
Walkin' out the door with ambitions hopes and dreams
Keep my eyes on the prize while im workin out a scheme
Survival by any means never lettin my guard down
Heart of a Champ in flames like Manny Pacquiao


Thank you B-Roc, big ups to Soul Fiesta!


Sa isang bangka magsama-sama, thats MY DREAM.
