Blake Carrington Intro: Check it out ya’ll - this is Blake Carrington comin’ live… This is “Revival Time” with my man Lokey Now give it up for Die-Rek, 7 Life and my man Reason “HIP HOP STAND UP RIGHT NOW!” Check it out – ONE, TWO!!! Die-Rek Verse Hear the children cry “freedom” That young man - yo, where he went? Filled the visitors card out – it read ‘Clark Kent’ (DANG!) It feels good to see the people jump on it Scratch my ear cuz I’m hearing things that’s melodic Now I got a peace and see the picture full grown Harder to live in but Christ yo, that’s my Homes To get my point across, I’m a nail ‘em with that… It’s “3 in 1” forget the foreshadow Christ got my back – and that’s that. 7 Life Verse Yo, I signed on the dotted line A heavenly contract – in fact “sold my soul” to the Divine Now some say, “7 Life’s dead and gone” But when Christ rose again he came in different forms You only have the luxury of that if you’re “dead” I’m a “Walking Resurrection” – that too deep what I said? I take you further like I’m walking with God You can “back mask” the record - hear me talking to God Now people asking, “If my rapping is done?” When they really should be praying that the Kingdom would come I once touched a man who couldn’t hear and he heard Even if they don’t rhyme – I found the ‘Power’ in words Reason Verse I’m on a highway - so every day I pray for a better day I really feel good but at times it’s not ok… I can’t cover up now But since I’ve finally found the “right path” - I must say that I can enjoy So much ‘Love’ that I gotta live I still go through stuff in my life baby – “Can I Live?!” I feel good no matter what I go through I still live a life that is made “brand new” Blake Carrington Break: Awww YEAH! I bet you thought we was done ya’ll But right now we just getting started I got my mans - Sev Statik, Relic and I got Promise coming thru And this is “Revival Time” ya’ll! Put your hands together – this is the old and the new “Revival Time” coming back to you…. Sev Statik Verse So let me jump right in and be a part of the change It’s brand new when we thinking of words to say We gon sing in the rain for that “price” was paid When the revolution begins – we invite the pain Ain’t no running away - it’s not me We haven’t been given a spirit of fear to kop pleas Spot these emcees without frees We always bringin’ what’s real, we get it from dropped knees It’s the REBIRTH, REBORN, REWIND I ain’t talkin’ bout change – betcha gon see mine We don’t flow whack but you all know that When we get in something to say – we don’t hold back Relic Verse It’s like a negative to positive So now I feel I got a reason to (what?) let the jam rock Need a beat – Lokey always on standby Providing me with high voltage to get it up and runnin’ - Shock the world out of cold hypnosis – Hot butter on your hip hop pallet Rel and Lo – we let cha you know – you can’t live without it A dose from the Most High, ‘rise!’ And stay close - see we “bifocal-ly” wise To recognize the flesh but get focused on a spiritual depth -THE REBIRTH IS IN EFFECT- So rest assured the ‘Script’ could not be broke You know we do this for the low and high lofty folk We poke fun at ourselves a lot, we’re not perfect The Reservoir reflect the T-Dot, it be the melting pot With full service – emerging with an urgency to stand upon the surface of rock It got purpose and it don’t……… Promise Verse I saw cyphers that I wanted to get in But I sort of didn’t because I wanted to fit in As soon as I started spittin’ – I feared they wouldn’t listen At first I was scared they’d hear that I was different My first time there - declaring I was “Christian” Dropping knowledge and sharing His wisdom Like – Dude listen, its cool spittin a few writtens for you to listen – But I’m here on a mission… Living life in this world today is hopeless They don’t know what hope is and they know this How could they say, “He does not exist??” He’s an “optometrist” – I mean He helps me stay focused…

about

That Brotha Lokey presents his latest single off his soon to be released “Urban Revival” compilation called “Revival Time” - a real boom bap/ throwback with a positive outlook featuring the likes of Promise, Die-Rek, Sev Statik, 7Life, Reason, and Rel McCoy (aka Relic).

Having teamed up with long time friend and Grammy nominated producer/engineer, Adam Messinger (Magic!, Justin Bieber, Chris Brown) to mix this full project, Lokey is poised to bring it back to that traditional sound of hip hop.

“Having this song finished some years back, I felt that this was the perfect time for this release to give to that audience who has a real appreciation for hip hop that’s audible, not over produced - paying homage to the idea of “to know where you’re going you got to know where you’ve come from.” states Lokey

Having a hint of that “nostalgic” with that feel good vibe of the “golden era” of hip hop (Tribe’s “Scenario”, Souls of Mischief’s “98 Til Infinity”, Pete Rock & CL Smooth “T.R.O.Y.”) - these 6 emcees bring that energy which is a “breath of fresh air.”

In the mists of the current hip hop landscape dulled down with 808’s and redundancy messages of drugs, money, women and the love for material goods, “Revival Time” is “breathing life” back into the art form taking a stand with the message to uplift and encourage. Wake up World! Boom Bap Is Not Dead!

“Revival Time” is the 3rd and last installment to drop from the upcoming “Urban Revival” compilation dropping summer 2018
