In October of this year (2021) I was seeking out new music and came across an album on YouTube. I decided about halfway through listening that I should take 4 of my favourite pieces from it and rap on it. I went back through the album and ended up using what you will hear on this E.P. / mini project thing. I decided I should challenge myself to write and record whatever came to mind. No rewriting. No multiple takes. Just write some honest, off the top stuff... and be ok with it not being the best lyrics or delivery (not that it's ever the best of either of those from me). It may not seem like a holiday project, but I most definitely had the Fall and Winter seasons in mind... AND the festiveness that comes with it as I worked through the songs.
All credit for the music you hear on this goes to the artist - Melodiesinphonie. These are selections from 'Unreleased Ja$$ 2012-2013 (full beat tape)'. Any minor edits with samples were not meant as a slight, merely to add more of my own personal touch without taking away from what this artist originally created.
Melodiesinfonie - I appreciate your work, you sharing it and hope you don't mind me sharing it in this way. Any additions or edits I made with samples of Raj or otherwise were not meant to take away from the artist's original composition...ALL RESPECT DUE to the original creator of the tunes. This is obviously not for me to make money; this is free.99. I do, however, urge listeners to go seek out this artist's work. Go stream, go purchase, go enjoy. Here is a link to listen/support:

Happy Holiday times to you all.
