J. Keys spazzes, dropping a calculated lyrical rant that just happens to make a lot of sense. Keys pokes fun at those that often seek to put a label on his music. Fueled by the high powered Eddie Kendricks sample via Kariem Riggins, lyrically Keys delivers as always promising KeymoTherapy is on the way.

J. Keys delivers yet another heater. This one is powered by the sounds of late Detroit brethren Dilla. "Wake up calls and alarm clocks to everyone that slept on!!" If this is any indication of what we can expect from KeymoTherapy, we are in for some fire.

I can't repay you I'm forever in your debt Retracing my steps thanking God for the day we met A lot other women came and left Or maybe that was me that did, well never the less I was off course too much clouding my sight Destructive but gifted like Denzel in flight Had a pattern for back sliding till you came into my life Knew the second I met you I had come to meet my wife Now I know that's not the hot thing for a rapper to say right now But I'm a grown man so can't come out and play right now Games are for children like I used be I'm off that Playas have the strongest women but be like damn I lost that So keep playing like you too cool for love Soon you 42 with 24 year olds up in the club And they just wanna drink up off yo bottle Talking about who they party with telling you how they model Then you finally realize all of this sh#% is hollow And you lost at least 3 good women that you could count on In this lifetime, the right time is something we often run from I hope you like sad songs, he's gonna hum one Ain't wanna play the dumb dumb, so I cleaned my act Training day, she wiped the pain away and got me back on track. I say all this to say, she caught me for I went astray Hold this I owe you, I'll pay you back along the way
Just in time for the warm weather, J. Keys spices up Luke James' I.O.U. on the Remix. Keys basically says, whereas it's "cool" to be a player, its not cool to be a player past your prime. lol!! When you find the right one hold on to her and don't become the washed up 'Sugar Daddy' in the club. Get your button ups ironed real crispy for this one.

Bet against my team you will get burnt up You can still rep if you ain't graduate wit us Hail to the victors, we leaning off the liquor But no Bacardi Gold, only Bacardi Maze Umich, do this, better on any day, Shout out to them freshman, them bad girls in Markley Its too cold for class, with they lazy ass but they still make it out to that party Pop the bottles we winning, (winning) pop the bottles we winning (winning) Them Spartans sure ain't smiling, and them Buckeyes sure ain't grinning

Verse:1 Its like my music may take you to places, though I was never there Like white folx walking their dog I'm sh!tting everywhere, And never cleaning up, give me the mic I beat it up Put ya mothaf#%*in' hands in the air, and just leave 'em up Took my joint to Radio, they told me to make dance up They wanna spin my sh!t but the PD got 'em handcuffed Tolerance getting low like I took time off drinking Seem like we as an audience took time off thinking You in denial like an addict admitting that he's a fiend Or girls with flab falling out of low rise jeans Thinking you hot when you barely luke warm Thinking you full price, when you really coupon You singing the same song that's already on the air Gucci, Louis, Diamonds, No Roof, nobody cares Tell a ni66a you rhyme, they assume you want record deal I'd rather have a fan base and a way to feed my family meals (that's real)
Hook: Let's go y'all, This one here is for the soul y'all You can feel it in ya chest Yuh yes yuh yes
Let's go y'all (c'mon) This one here is for the soul y'all You can feel it in ya gut, Unh Hunh, Unh hunh yeah
Verse 2: Buyer beware, sellers wanna hang with ya A lot of dream danglers a lot of dream stranglers Other people's dreams try to tangle ya You doin' you now they wanna try to mangle ya What's ya angle huh, acute or obtuse Is this line perpendicular, or parallel to you Been in a box so long I'm happy to see a rhombus. Every time I click record I'm on a quest to be timeless To make up for all the days I tapped the bottle to be mindless A lot of rappers dropped a song never to be rewinded Blinded by the lights, the cameras, the action For all the money, cars, and hoes what's life without passion Some of my best times was spent broke with my loved ones You make it to the top look around and you alone son In America we work everyday 'til we die So busy trying to stack money that we don't enjoy life (that's right)
Hook: Let's go y'all, This one here is for the soul y'all You can feel it ya chest Yuh yuh yes yuh yes
Let's go y'all (c'mon) This one here is for the soul y'all You can feel it in ya gut, Unh Hunh, Unh hunh
...Yeah

J. Keys literally gives you the math, dropping high octane bars to the soulful production of Pete Rock's 'A Love Thing.' From muffin tops to 'Dream Stranglers', Keys delivers the perfect blend of comedy, wit, and truth that you can 'feel in ya gut'.
Be on the look out for his forthcoming "KeymoTherapy" Mixtape.
J. Keys attended the Public Theater's dual opening night party for its productions of Guillermo Calderon's Neva and Dominique Morisseau's Detroit '67 on Monday, March 11 at their Astor Place home.
Detroit '67, a co-production with the Classical Theatre of Harlem and the National Black Theatre, the work follows a pair of siblings in Detroit in 1967, who end up dealing with a mysterious visitor and the city's eruption into riots. The complete cast includes De'Adre Aziza, Francois Battiste, Brandon J. Dirden, Samantha Soule, and Michelle Wilson. The show runs at The Public through March 17 and continues at the National Black Theatre from March 23 through April 14. Guests included Public Theater veterans Colman Domingo (Wild With Happy), Sharon Washignton (Wild With Happy), Stephen Spinella (As You Like It), and John Douglas Thompson (King Lear), among other stars.
As a black man, I ABSOLUTELY care who tells my story. If you disagree with this philosophy you might as well stop reading now... (you won't like where this is going).
If you ask me Spike Lee is not mad enough. We as a people are not mad enough! It is 2013 and Spike Lee is still the only one 'Mad.' Every segment of our society has evolved, yet very few us are in a position to green light our own films on a consistent basis. We do not have a fair balanced representation on TV or the Big Screen.
In 2012, last year 16 movies featuring a black lead made it to the big the screen in some capacity (they were not necessarily blockbusters they just made it to the big screen in some capacity.) 6 of those films had black directors. 1 of those was a woman. (I saw her film and loved it).
Red Tails, Sparkle, Alex Cross, A thousand words, Beasts of Southern Wild, Django , Gang of Roses 2: Next Generation, Madea's Witness Protection, Good Deeds, the Last Fall, Red Hook Summer, Elza, Think Like a Man, Middle of Nowhere, Flight, Chico and Rita
This is UNACCEPTABLE!!!! Figuratively speaking, this is 'below minimum wage.' Politics, Music, Finance, and every segment of our society is more evolved and progressive than the film industry. So yes If you are a director (especially non-black) and you decide that you want to tell one of our 16 stories a year, I am cautious of your intentions and I am watching you with a microscope and that sh#% better be on point! ....not 'average' ON POINT!!!
My question is not 'Why is Spike Lee Hating?' ....My question is 'Why is No One Else?'"
