Stop The Press (Instrumental) - Brother Ali[00:00:00]

Another one of them long a** breaks.[00:00:02]

Damn, Brother Ali where the hell you been?[00:00:05]

What, you disappear?[00:00:08]

Stop the presses give me couple seconds[00:00:09]

Let tell my friends what’s up with big brethren[00:00:12]

New year new beard a new record[00:00:14]

Made a few adjustments I want to discuss it[00:00:17]

In a life of pain and sadness[00:00:19]

Never would’ve guessed that a taste of success[00:00:21]

Would’ve been the first time I ever got depressed[00:00:24]

I know I’m blessed I just couldnt ’adjust[00:00:26]

In life all I ever knew how to do is fight[00:00:29]

Scrapped on the playground fighting for the mic[00:00:31]

Trying to build a life with an insane wife[00:00:33]

Fighting for a little bit of time in the light[00:00:36]

Then I got a daughter a car and house[00:00:38]

No one left to fight with but myself[00:00:40]

Gained a lot of weight wasn’t thinking about my health[00:00:43]

Maybe the music I’m making could help[00:00:46]

I can’t drive ‘cause this albino sh*t[00:00:48]

Told you I was legally blind that’s legit[00:00:50]

I ain’t want Ant to have to come scoop the kid[00:00:53]

So I bought a crib a couple blocks from his[00:00:55]

That’s the greatest friend I ever had[00:00:58]

Like a brother to me a borderline dad[00:01:00]

Maybe making a record will get me on track[00:01:02]

Help fix whatever’s wrong with my head[00:01:05]

I jumped back in the basement at once[00:01:07]

Made the album Us in a couple of months[00:01:09]

But I can’t lie to y’all I felt lost[00:01:12]

Energy I brought might’ve been a bit off[00:01:14]

Couple great moments though of course[00:01:17]

Babygirl Puppy Love and The Travelers[00:01:19]

I toured two years off that album[00:01:21]

Was on the road ten months out of one of them[00:01:24]

Did the globe with my brother BK[00:01:26]

My life coach slash DJ[00:01:29]

Literally been with me since day one[00:01:31]

Had a lot of hard times had a lot of fun[00:01:33]

Long story short he got hell of a wife[00:01:36]

Catastrophe damn near ended her life[00:01:38]

Brought our wifeys out to Hawaii[00:01:40]

These f**kers got pregnant on Waikiki[00:01:43]

He said "I need to talk to you Ali[00:01:46]

This is what you were born to do, but not me"[00:01:48]

So after Soundset two thousand and ten[00:01:50]

Say goodbye to my Deejay but not my friend[00:01:52]

My career ain’t stop it just grew[00:01:55]

I rock(ed) the bells and Glastonbury too[00:01:57]

Close enough to smell Beyonce’s perfume[00:02:00]

But it just ain’t the same without dude[00:02:02]

Couldn’t slow me down no lord[00:02:05]

Stayed on the planes and the busses and cars[00:02:07]

Brought a young DJ into the squad[00:02:09]

Sucker quit on me cause I toured too hard “Wahhhh”[00:02:11]

On to the next one[00:02:15]

Then me and Ant had trouble connecting[00:02:17]

If I was here then he was always there[00:02:19]

Touring or recording with Atmosphere[00:02:21]

What the hell's goin on with my career[00:02:24]

Within a year my team disappeared[00:02:26]

Got a phone call on the 4th of July[00:02:28]

My dad died, he committed suicide[00:02:31]

Sh*t should've been there for him[00:02:34]

Had to fly home from Europe to bury him[00:02:36]

Im sorry, I need a minute[00:02:39]

Bismillah...) Alright, listen[00:02:41]

Trying to hold this marriage together[00:02:44]

But me and my baby barely see each other[00:02:45]

I’m in France with the fans taking pictures[00:02:48]

She’s with the kids making dinner doing dishes[00:02:50]

She ain’t got to worry bout me screwing other[00:02:53]

But that ain’t enough to make a woman feel precious[00:02:55]

If we don’t start to intersecting[00:02:58]

We got no choice but grow in different directions -Damn[00:03:00]

I got that phone call again[00:03:03]

You know the kind you never want to get[00:03:05]

Mikey’s mom couldn’t get a hold of him[00:03:07]

And found him dead in his apartment[00:03:10]

Just drowning in tears[00:03:13]

Probably won’t get over that in all my years[00:03:14]

I’ll remember forever[00:03:17]

A day later boarded a plane to Mecca[00:03:19]

And the next month changed my life[00:03:22]

Listening to God in the holy sites[00:03:24]

Inklings I had all my life[00:03:26]

Suddenly presented themselves in plain sight[00:03:28]

Any doubts I had about the mic[00:03:31]

And whether or not what I write is right[00:03:34]

Fell out of sight like the tears on the floor[00:03:36]

Now I’m going harder than I ever did before[00:03:38]

Got a couple of beat tapes from Jake[00:03:41]

Genuine dude and his music is great[00:03:43]

I told Zach to hold my tour dates[00:03:45]

Roll the tape I got something to say[00:03:48]

So, I’m gonna go make this album.[00:03:54]

Let me start it off right though[00:03:56]
