Here’s a cross country collabo for Hey Soul Sister Remix by Lil Crazed x Jason Chen x SummerBreeze x Marc the Sharc. Jason Chen starts it off with the vocals for Hey Soul Sister. Lil Crazed spits his rhymes over the track as Summer Breeze strums the guitar and Marc the Sharc plays the piano. Much like dumbfoundead, Lil Crazed also shows his diverse music styles. He slows it down with this track. If you like this remix, you can download it FREE here.

Lyrics:
(Crazed)
~there’s something bout ya girl, i gotta let you know,
i’m retarded in love, your’re so special,
love drunk like we sippin’ on X and O’s
so good for my body like a vegetable
i love you, speak louder than words are actions
mute me and i’ll prove it closed caption
you plus me, baby we’re nothing average,
so you can count on me like i’m mathamatics
trash it, i’m talkin bout your x men,
those wolverines must’ve been signed to Def (deaf) Jam
hearing impaired, they didn’t listen clear,
so it’s time i make magic happen and have them disappear,
yeahhh, cuz you’re the one i need,
and your smile shine brighter than the sun i see,
you prolly have a couple crystal balls in disguise
cuz i see my whole future when i look at ya eyes

~when i’m with you, i can be me,
no more blanks in my heart like a burned CD,
i put a spark to the love, you’re the gasoline
no undercover like the first page of a magazine
i put you out as my girl to the world
and we still stay straight even when ya hair’s curled,
cuz you’re a masterpiece like Picaso in the mood
now you’re part of my soul like the bottom of my shoe (sole)

Clouds by Dumbfoundead x Jay Park x Clara

Clouds by Dumbfoundead x Jay Park x Clara

Last week, we told you about a song coming from Jay Park x Dumbfoundead x Clara. The song just dropped and it’s called “Clouds,” which is dedicated to those going through tough times. We’re definitely feeling this track with high caliber Korean American crew. All three artists excel in their own style on this song. If you want this track, you can download it FREE here.

We continue to be impressed by dumbfoundead‘s diverse style. For a person that never graduated high school, dumbfoundead is a online viral marketing genius. (support the man, get some dumbwear) Jay Park‘s verse is pretty dope. Looks like he’s spitting some real life rhymes. Can we say first step in “crossover“? Clara continues to get her name out not only winning competitions, but also doing collabos like this. Love her sultry voice.

Clouds by Dumbfoundead x Jay Park x Clara

Lyrics to Clouds by Dumbfoundead x Jay Park x Clara

Roll, roll back the clouds
Let the sun shine through

[VERSE 1-DUMBFOUNDEAD]
There’s light at the end of the tunnel
I haven’t seen it
Not all of us become rockstars and ballerinas
Even in California the sun ain’t always beaming
Can’t predict the forecast for all four seasons
We have dark days
Can’t make your car payments
Workin a whackass job living in mom’s basement
Some lands never get rain so there’s starvation
Some only see snow through neighborhoods scarred faces
Not everything is set in stone
The weather changes
It’s like God that the devil’s trying to entertain us
Walked in the treacherous storm and overcame it
It is never an easy path on the road to greatness
So don’t you give me that boo hoo hoo shit
We’re moving on to that new new new shit
Look up into the clouds and watch it blow away
Until my problems just go away

[CHORUS-Clara]
When the clouds are in the sky
Know that they’re just passing by
There’ll be sunshine
Yeah
If your days are stormy nights
Dry the raindrops from your eyes
There’ll be sunshine

[VERSE 2-JAY]
Everybody works hard for their goals to achieve
But like the ocean is sea, man, the motion is free
So nothing ever adds up the way we want it to
I guess my math teacher was just a substitute
Everybody hits a rough patch turbulence in the sky
Life’s a cow I made a burger
And I’m serving it with some fries
Gotta make do with the cards that are dealt
And though it’s hard as hell
I know that God will help
Cause although I live in Seattle
It’s not always gonna rain
There’ll be some sunny days coming up this way
Everybody’s wanting to see me struggling
Running away from pain
But I know the wondrous things are coming to visit again someday
So no worries I just stand here with a smirk on my face
Although I know some people out there throwin dirt on my name
But it’s all good
Still show em some love
Cause unlike that girl from the movie
I ain’t holdin no grudge

[CHORUS-CLARA]
When the clouds are in the sky
Know that they’re just passing by
There’ll be sunshine
Yeah
If your days are stormy nights
Dry the raindrops from your eyes
There’ll be sunshine

[BRIDGE-CLARA]
I’ve been a little lost
But I’m not colorblind
I’ll follow that yellow brick road
And put my fears behind
And on that yellow road
I’ll find a wishing well
Cast a line and in time I know I’ll prevail
