Los Angelinos (4 Carl Get'em) [Produced by Science]

Limited Edition Framed Canvas Print of The Achievement Gap
Very few things are Black&White...

The Achievement Gap wasn't only meant to be audibly appealing but also visually engaging. The artwork, shrouded in a bit of mystery as Foci has yet to explain publicly what it all means, is now available in its entirety, for you to decipher.

Commissioned by K "Foci" Wilson with close assistance from Mario "Antiix" Gutierrez and painted by Thomas Wu, set out to create a unique vision that reflected the content of the entire album.

The image is set within a white wooden bevelled edge frame with dimensions of 27 1/4" wide and 11 1/2" height and is quite the site to behold.

You aren't just getting a piece of Foci history for your collection but you are supporting "Team Foci" as the proceeds from the sales of this Limited Edition piece will go to getting them to...

New York City, NY for the 10th Annual Underground Music Awards (bit.ly/iamfociuma VOTE NOW!)

and most importantly

Compact Disc (CD) + Digital Album
The Achievement Gap in physical form signed by Foci

This 6 Panel DigiHub is truly a piece of art in itself.
Upon opening the CD, The commissioned painting of "The Classroom" by Thomas Wu (LAUSD Art Teacher) reveals over 40 students packed in a tiny classroom with students skin tones going progressively from light to dark.

This masterpiece speaks volumes to the actual definition of the achievement gap and is the central focus of the content on the album. A 16 picture photo collage represents each song on the album from tracks 1-15 and the last picture will resonate with those of you in education.

In true tradition the artwork includes the thank yous and credits holding down all those involved.

We'll also throw in a mystery merch item.
It could be a sticker... it could be a beanie... it could be an upcoming concert ticket.

Includes unlimited streaming of The Achievement Gap via the free Bandcamp app, plus high-quality download in MP3, FLAC and more. ... more

lyrics

Whattup Carl, peace to my man Carl Get’em

Chorus (2x)
C’mon Get’em, C’mon Get’em, C’mon Get’em, C’mon Get’em
Say what say what yo where you at Los Angeles
Say what say what yo where i’m from Los Angeles

Verse 1
Yo, she like german (achoo) Gusenteit
Yup and your outfit goes on tight
It don't take any liquor to lick her
But all within the building is kickin' scriptures for a picture
Blinding paparazzi and the flashing lights
She's talking crazy so the obvious goes down tonight
Let's get out of here too many eyes too many ears
Too many years of this nonsense to bring it here
Somewhere isolated, (what) mono y mono (ha)
Drinkin' irish and I ain't Bono
But me and you too rockin' bloody Sundays
The fun ways for them fun days
This is Hip Hop I used to put it down at Spundae
Tus poquito besitos got me looking dumb way
Smile on face like the radio gave me some play
You know it’s gotta happen, one day

Chorus (2x)
C’mon Get’em, C’mon Get’em, C’mon Get’em, C’mon Get’em
Say what say what yo where you at Los Angeles
Say what say what yo where i’m from Los Angeles

Verse 2
I don't believe what you believe but I believe in freedom (freedom)
I don't see what you see but I do believe I'll lead them (lead them)
You'd rather be happy through someone else's misery (uh huh)
And you can count me out the difference 'tween you and me
And if she doesn't understand that's her problem B
And if she doesn't feline land success on her feet
Yo ha ha ha yea that's another problem C
Her final grade will probably end up as a D
No Es are given unless she's taken drugs
But to fail is an F earned like fakin' thugs
If she worships G's up over Jesus
Some may just fall in love and H try to please her
But never for I that's asking the heart to break
These girls shady like J and always play for stakes
And this man named K ain't got time to play
Leave with an L loser for the lover's sake

Chorus (2x)
C’mon Get’em, C’mon Get’em, C’mon Get’em, C’mon Get’em
Say what say what yo where you at Los Angeles
Say what say what yo where i’m from Los Angeles

Verse 3 (Outro)
LA (where you at)
SGV (where you at)
Southbay (where you at)
South Central (where you at)
San Fernando (where you at)
MidCity (where you at)
Eastside Eastside worldwide (where you at)
Westside Westside worldwide (where you at)
