Notion has been putting in serious work for the past three to four years now, and his debut mixtape, It’s My Turn… documents his last couple of years of rhyme. Featuring production from GMC and DJ Dub Kay (who also mixed the release), alongside some of the hottest beats from recent times, and with guest appearances from Cee-For, Bekah, GMC, and Esscay to name a few, It’s My Turn… is set to create a serious dent in the scene and cement Notion as a name to watch out for.
Includes unlimited streaming of It's My Turn...The Mixtape
via the free Bandcamp app, plus high-quality download in MP3, FLAC and more.
[Verse: Notion]
(I'm runnin') way too fast, wit no road left,
Gotta work it out, & slow it down, hold my set,
Figure out a way to roll, advance my checks,
Distribute my own music, the mixtapes the best, yes!,
I gotta make it, I know shit ya can't learn, pal,
Its been a long patient wait, so its my turn, now!,
Like I gotta pay my dues, & take advice from dudes,
I know we say it different, so leave me alone fool,
Im on my own shit yall, get up & off of it,
You didn't want a bar of me, & now you wantin all of it,
Like fingers on the chalkboard, its deafening bitch,
Im constantly ridiculed, about this accent shit,
Im feelin suffocated, or better yet frustrated,
Contemplatin' just how much longer I can tollerate it,
Although I never trade it, feel im gettin agg-rev-ated, {_}
Seal up my shit, so they never take it, dawg, im runnin'!
[Verse: Cee]
Yeah it's Cee, I'm still all up in the game but,
Even at the best of times, this whole shit got me jaded,
It's all the same bruh, there's still no unity,
And what's with all the hatin' when barely a dude is movin' me?
Shit is stupid and the scene so small,
That to try and separate us makes no sense at all,
Dog, all I'm tryin'a do is give success a call,
And take Australian Hip Hop international,
What? Man this situation is really a pit, B,
I'm fronted on by cats who lyrically ain't shit on me,
I been puttin' in work, mixtapes with Soul D,
Took my ass around the world and I'm still the old me, homie,
Before you judge me, have you even heard me yet?
What the fuck? I gotta battle cats just to get a rep, huh?
Half these dudes ain't even write hot tunes, shit,
They barely average man, who are they tryina kid?
But, I've paid my dues, made songs for years,
Written respected articles throughout my career,
And I ain't never gonna quit, thank y'all for hatin',
Y'all provided me a valuable source of inspiration, it's on
[Verse: Bekah]
Gotta get up for today,
Gotta make this music and get paid,
Get it crackin', take over this game,
Come on, sing it with me, oh yeah
Oh oh oh, oh yeah,
Oh oh oh, oh yeah,
Oh oh oh, oh yeah,
Oh no, hell yeah
