Dyme Def - Let It Be

Dyme Def is an exceptionally solid group hailing from Seattle, Washington.  From what my Seattle friends tell me, Dyme Def still hand sells their albums at the end of other hip-hop artists’ Seattle concerts.  Honestly, with skill like this these guys definitely deserve a larger following. This is my favorite song off of their way above average album Space MusicLet It Be is a true hip-hop classic in my book.  It has an amazing beat, outstanding production, and profound lyrics that are heavily laced with emotion.

“See, I got two jobs and I’m still broke
See, I got bad asthma and I still smoke
The doctor tellin’ me that my breathing’s getting worse
And soon I won’t be able to spit a verse, now I’m feeling cursed
No turning to my dad ‘cause he’s too far to look for
So instead I look forward, but I don’t look forward to seeing him
At nights I still have bad dreams of being him
People say, ‘You look just like your dad
You got his laugh, you got his walk, you got his talk.’
But, I don’t got his heart”
