I don't know why I never posted this - even though I thought I did. Enjoy.

Eternal Love For Eternia

THEN

NOW

Eternia, Elzhi and Escobar

By now you've heard about Elzhi's much anticipated mixtape, Elmatic. If not, here's what's up: the half of Slum Village recently paid homage to Nas' clasic, Illmatic by dropping a 10 all-live tracks into a mixtape that is similarily titled. One of those is One Love.

So moved by it was Eternia, my favourite rapper who wears a skirt, that she just had to remix it. Yesterday she tweeted "I touched a classic and today I'm leaking" before she unleashed her take on the evergreen joint. Here's E's dopeness, Elzhi follows and the original 1994 gem by Nas is last. What do you think of the renditions?

Eternia -One Love by theblagg

To The Future

When Eternia and Moss finally got a deal that they were happy with they fed the masses with At Last. You already know how The Ordinary Girl feels about Eternia, but this album? You need At Last in your life. This song in particular, To The Future, is a sick drum and scratch slice of what some girls go through on the road to becoming women. Yet the outside world will never know - nor want to. And just because we don't know doesn't mean the scars aren't there.

We're taught that most guys have an issue with a womans past. If she let the homies hit it, if you were the first, if she let some dudes run a train on her etc. Whether by her own choice or not, once the truth about her past is out then some dudes can't handle that. ("When you talk about making a life I think about the two I killed already, it's too late for me, right? You could make me your wife but why would you wanna" raps E). Some girls who rap don't have the courage to tell the truth, whether it's their autobiography or not. Not like this. So what will happen to the girl listeners?

Think before you tell a girl (or guy) that you love them unconditionally.

Dear Mr Bacardi Live... Kinda

Our favourite skirt-wearing rapper does it again! How can you not be impressed by Canada's own Eternia? I really should say hip hop's own but... bleh! With her and producer Moss finally getting a deal and aptly titling their project, At Last, she's been doing some pretty darn cool things. Like this for example:



I wanna be a rapper too! Ok, back to reality. This is a video of Eternia performing her funny ditty, Dear Mr Bacardi (from At last), on a corner in Queens. Cool, huh?
