Lose the Vagina why dont cha? Talking revolution in song but there seems to be little revolution in your (captain kirk this one) actual life sooooooooooo who's burning flags on flag pole street? you? not me(emphasize). i fast while most of you assholes eat so give thanks (yea!!) you couldn't see me with a lens made of pyrex I press my fingers real deep where your eyes rest- tired like I feel cobwebs,I remove one digit I then wrap these cold arms around whats left of you and speak hello................. where's your brain?

about

The Metal Jerk, is named after a rhyme style I am currently employing. Martial and Marital, something old, something new, something borrowed.

The Metal Jerk is a walking abortion. It is a rhyme style that seems to have an advantage by vocally mimicking and adhering to the instruments inside of a beat. It is inspired by popular piano right hand techniques and improvisational jazz. It is also a rhyme style that is handicapped by my lack of practice, primitive syllable placement within composition and my incessant, desperate use of the punch-in function and delay effect while recording. This album marks a period in my life that I discovered that my imagination is much larger than my skill set.

This album is dedicated to all you fucks creating safe-hop complaining about other safe-hop artists. Your blood taste terrific and you make my job really easy. My colleagues and I have discussed your plight for many centuries. The best advice we can give you is to start and continue to seek opinions about your work from outside of your peer group. Listeners, the industry and the times may not be the best place to place all that blame.

On behalf of myself and all the amazing people who are a part of this project, we hope you enjoy the sounds of The Metal Jerk. Ta ta. XYXYXYXY

Limited Physical Copies of this album will be available before Spring of 2012.

about

Cloudy October Portland

I am a half-american, myth buster, beatmaker-songwriter, rhyme inspector, social magician and b-boy. I make hip-hop that caters to the listeners intellect. It is a form that stresses emphasis in specificity.

It's LL Cool J doing audio commentary of an arm wrestling match between Frederick Kreuger and Edward Scissorhands on BET.
