I drop this record in lieu of the year coming to a close and what’s to come. 2012 was a great year, given I still have my health and my family. I will continue to strive to perfect my craft. I also plan on making more of a presence in the times to come. Thank you to those who have taken the time to listen to what I’ve posted on the Cloud in the past. If you find a common interest in my music than stay tuned, and stay inspired. Many blessings to you and yours as we bring in the new year! Peace.

Siul kicks off the month of November with a random track from the, ‘this will probably not see the light of day archives’.. Or so, how he calls it. Enjoy!
"
If I could capture the rage of today’s youth and bottle it
Crush the glass from my bare hands and swallow it
Then spit it back in the faces of you racists
and hypocrites who think the same shit but don’t say shit
You Liberace’s, Versace’s, and you nazis
Watch me, cause you thinking you got me in this hot seat
You motherfuckers wanna JUDGE me cause you’re NOT me
You’ll never STOP me, I’m TOP speed as you POP me
I came to save these new generations of babies
from parents who failed to raise ‘em cause they’re lazy
to grow to praise me I’m makin ‘em go crazy
That’s how I got this whole nation to embrace me
And you fugazi if you think I’ma admit wrong
I cripple any hypocritic critic I’m sic’d on
And this song is for any kid who gets picked on
A sick song to retaliate to, and it’s called.. Fight Music”
- Eminem (D12 - Fight Music)
"“I’ve been praised and labelled as crazed
My mother was unable to raise me, full of crazy rage
An angry teenager, nothin can change me back
Gangsta rap made me act like a maniac
I was boostin, so influenced by music I used it
as an excuse to do shit, ooh I was stupid
No one can tell me nothin hip-hop overwhelmed me
to the point where it had me in a whole ‘nother realm
It was like isolatin myself was healthy
It felt like we was on welfare but wealthy
Compelled me to excel when school it failed me
Expelled me and when the principal would tell me
I was nothin, and I wouldn’t amount to shit
I made my first million and counted it
Now look at, a fuckin drop-out that quits
Stupid as shit, rich as fuck, and proud of it
That’s why” - Eminem
“I don’t wanna go to school.. I don’t need no education
I don’t wanna be like you.. I don’t wanna save the nation
I just wanna live my life.. everyday a celebration
One day I’ma leave this world.. I’m waitin for the revelation”
"I don’t love you to death, cuz I love you to life
And you a teenager, you might not want my advice
You might be full of spite, think you’re grown, still a tyke
And say things that cut like a patient under the knife
I say this, cuz I was once a teenager too
And respect from my peers is really all that I related to
But I made it through, you gonna make it too
So much I wanna say to you"
- Talib Kweli
