Name: Jeremy Blum
Nicknames: Blummer, JB, JAB, Shoryu
Crew: Nerds While AZN
Nationality: Half White, Half Asian (you figure out the exact mix)
Biggest Musical Influences - Mike Shinoda, Tiger JK (of Drunken Tiger), Tablo (of Epik High)
I started rapping in 2003 years ago, mainly because I really loved hip-hop and wanted to try creating my own musical works. I quickly found out that I had a knack for it, and I also discovered that I loved making music and sharing it with the world. I originally began rapping with my crew, Nerds While AZN (if you haven't already, you should check our group site out @ soundclick.com/nerdswhileazn) but since then I've mostly done solo work and have finished three mixtapes on my own. I hope you'll enjoy my music, find something that you think sounds tight, and come away with a few favorites. Thanks.
Lyrics
Blummer - bUdDhA STYLE rHymE FLO!
i never claimed to be anything that i wasn't
never tried a swagger, never went out frontin'
just a kid from the midst of Cherry Hill, New Jerz,
USA, trying to move up, get outta the burbs
i'm no gangster, just an average man
tryin' to whip up some tunes to formulate a plan
a master plan, to stick it to the machine
then come up big and maybe make some green
so i sit out at night, making midnight melodies
tring to rap about something other than felonies
don't live in the hood, it's understood
rapping 'bout moving weight won't do me no good
can't talk about bling or broads, i don't live that
gotta rap about something else, what do i have left?
searching my mind for a suitable topic
i'm only seventeen, my whole life's myopic
i ain't lived long, so it does get hard
to call upon experience, i ain't battle scarred
never held a gun, never busted caps
don't roll the dice, don't rock the straps
finding a suitable subject is a damn pain
for every word i write i gotta rack my brain
i can't pull a Mase, i gotta rap consistent
gotta work with what i got and stay persistent
(chorus)
you need heart to play this game
i'm gonna ride the best that i can, do the damn thang
you need heart to play this game
i'm gonna pen my own rhymes as long as the beats bang
and someday, i'm gonna blow
no homo, just call this the punk buddha style rhyme flow
take two, yo, here we go
sit back, relax, lie low and enjoy the show, Joe
yo, check the buddha style rhyme flow
yo, check the buddha style rhyme flow
yo, check the buddha style rhyme flow
yo, check the buddha style rhyme flow
and now i'm just moving to the sound of the street
i see some bboys breakin' to the sound of the beat
an old school vibe, i inject in my songs
try to be positive, we're the Nerds, not the Tongs
but sometimes i worry if i'm bein' repetitive
if i'm gettin' stale, not stayin' competitive
i'm the odd man out of the Nerds While AZN
and even though i might complete the equation
i'm not as loud as Jeff or as chill as Jun
i'm still self-concious 'bout me and my tunes
i guess it comes with the territory, can't be helped
i try to be charismatic, with a style to be felt
i'd do a fly dance and sing like Omarion
but rap makes me feel like a Rastafarian
gotta break from the rest, don't wanna conform
try to make an ID away from the norm
the answers are hidden, kinda like an exam
i'm doing these raps to figure out who i am
on a long road, stretching from here to Nippon
my third eye's open, call me Tienshinhan
i won't admit it but i got things to prove
i still want recognition, someone to approve
until that day comes, i'll flow like a fountain
to reach my special spot, be king of the mountain
(chorus)
