today is the second of back-to-back features of my fellow climber-rapper @ronin.fm…personally i love listening to this one, so i hope you guys do, too! DAY FIFTEEN: Damn, It Feels Good to be a Climber (feat. Ronin.FM) ARTWORK PHOTO: me! ORIGINAL SONG: “Damn, It Feels Good to be a Gangster” by The Geto Boys CONCEPT: that same laid-back, cool attitude from the original song, except applied to rock climbing…we all have those moments where we realize just how great this sport is, how great it has been to us, and/or the greatness that has yet to come, so i figured i would pay tribute to those idyllic moments in a climber’s life. FAVORITE LINE: “real climbing-ass niggas don’t talk much / all you hear is the slap when they hit slopes / and real climbing-ass niggas can’t crimp for shit / cause real climbing-ass niggas don’t crimp closed”…in addition to the tongue-in-cheek remark about crimping lol, i really like this line because it embodies what i think of when i imagine truly strong climbers…they VERY rarely will tell you what hard things they’ve done, and actually are usually pretty quiet in general from my experience because most of their ‘talking’ is done when they get on the wall. that, to me, is not just a sign of true strength, but of much experience and resounding command…that’s what i wanna be when i grow up, haha. enjoy the song! #climberrap #rockclimbing #climbing #training #music #workout #rapmusic #rap #rapper #tapeclimbperfectrepeat #tapeclimbrepeat #albumcover #albumart #climbermusic #climb #bouldering #boulder #blackclimbersmatter #blackclimbers #blacksettersmatter #horsepens40 #hp40 #steele #alabama #hammock (at Horse Pens 40)
