RIDDIM DRIVEN - MESHACH DANIEL FALCONER ROBERTS

Playground Riddim

I recently finished reading a book called ‘Gentleman of Leisure’, which records a year in the life of Silky, a Pimp in New York
in the the late 1970’s. Silky’s really doing it, he’s making 100’s of thousands of dollars every year, he’s Hoes are all obsessively in love with him, he has a massive apartment, a ridiculous customised car and spends all his time buying tailored suits and at the turkish baths with his fellow pimp Dandy. By far and away the most Pimp thing he does however is get one of his pro’s to come over every morning and massage oil into his body for a couple of hours, which they happily do thinking he’s gonna give them a piece once there done but he never does, he just takes his pimp tax and sends them to work. My morning mistress is the playground riddim and the day starts with self moisturising to Who Am I - Beenie Man, getting dressed to Nike Air - Mr Vegas, and then eating my sugar puffs to Work Dem - Merciless. And do you know what I worked out from all this, is that Silky has a much better life than me and there’s just no getting round that.
