Ghostpoet - Cash & Carry Me Home : attention à la gueule de bois !

Obaro Ejimive est un MC anglais d’origine nigérienne. Il vient de sortir l'album Peanut Butter Blues & Melancholy Jam  chez Brownswood Recordings, le label de Gilles Peterson.

Son mélange d'électro / dubstep / hip hop embrumé est efficace, mais ce qui fait l'intérêt du mec, c'est son flow nonchalant, mi bourré mi endormi... Aussi addictif qu'un rhum Père Labat à 59°.

Il passe en concert à la Machine du Moulin Rouge vendredi 10 juin.

Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
The right distance, the right distance

My hand grip whiskey like a newborn child and
Last night I must admit it got quite wild now
Morning's approached and I wrestle with a headache
That was spawned in hell by the devil himself
Now it's not quite clear
But I wonder what shenanigans brought me here
While I'm cryin' out loud and I'm feeling quite sorry for myself
I need to check my health
Cause I have much to know about myself

I know we fuss and fight yeah a little bit
I've had a couple drinks well a little bit
I'm beggin' you
Just carry me home home home home home

I know we fuss and fight yeah a little bit
I've had a couple drinks well a little bit
I'm beggin' you
Just carry me home
I'm all on my own

Smashed up my phone,
Not sure of whereabouts
My mum kept on callin' me just tellin' me to sort it out, sort it out
Mum look, readin' books and takin' tests won't take away the pain in chest
The aching limbs decide to vapour, sparked up your cigarette
Lookin' out the window at the world,
I just ain't ready yet
Such things just get me stressed,
Grey hairs are springin' up and I'm startin' to shake a bit
I've still got some whiskey left, maybe I'll just take a sip

I know we fuss and fight yeah a little bit
I've a couple drinks well a little bit
I'm beggin' you
Just carry me home home home home home

I know we fuss and fight yeah a little bit
I've had a couple drinks well a little bit
I'm beggin' you
Just carry me home
I'm all on my own

I've kinda lost my throne
I'm absent from the scene,
I'm searchin' for a way in life
I'm lookin' for a theme
A plan or a scheme
A road to a better place
I'm splashin' water on my face
Wake up lazy bones
Please just take me home
I'm out of my comfort zone
The liquids wearing off
Now I just feel alone
Now I just feel alone
Now I just feel alone
Now I just feel alone
Now I just feel alone

I know we fuss and fight yeah a little bit
I've had a couple drinks well a little bit
I'm beggin' you
Just carry me home home home home home

I know we fuss and fight yeah a little bit
I've had a couple drinks well a little bit
I'm beggin' you
Just carry me home
I'm all on my own
