ain't a single white female rapping like this spitting back the poison of an attacker's kiss my thesis a call to hold myself up by my own wrists prematurely miss the one man who always held me in his still break my neck trying but i just can't die actions speak louder but i'm paralyzedbone tired, sun comes and stunned, i can't rise tongue tingling, not fun: these life-long lungs on fire they call me smokey taboo i got your name tattooed high like a helium balloon midnight to noon i'm a desert child and mountains make me nauseous still posturing fetal, baby, i'm crying "world" no frills. life is fostering Daddy's girl Will's bothering: "Baby, try to unfurl!" what's real's if Daddy's dying then i'm a dying girl this song's all self-medicating the wrongs i'm Righting then dedicating long to my father to levitate him. Mom alone? The thought's devastating. GONE. life's work just relegated from calm to pawn. (k)nights? race to evade them. and we're too proud to ever debate it. so i rap gifts just so i could say this: repeat fond words until i can take it no wand's magic can keep me breaking dawn on days i regret my waking. yawn, and smile. the feat is faking. oh, little Lawn that's my name and he's my core and he is shaken. that's the lesson-making: do everything right. and. Life will quake it. i like to look up wild at an infinite sky twinkling with diamonds it's true i get depressed in fancy hotel rooms undressed with nothing to flaunt but my loneliness thinking of the night song of your hair premature as evening falls it calls to me interrupted by the sirens in the street this song's all self-medicating the wrongs i'm Righting then dedicating long to my father to levitate him. Mom alone? The thought's devastating. GONE. life's work just relegated from calm to pawn. (k)nights? race to evade them. and we're too proud to ever debate it. so i rap gifts just so i could say this: REPEAT FOND WORDS UNTIL I CAN TAKE IT no wand's magic can keep me breaking dawn on days i regret my waking. yawn, and smile. the feat is faking. oh, little Lawn that's my name and he's my core and he is shaken. that's the lesson-making: do everything right. and. Life will quake it. somedays you're like an anchor on my heart they say that stolen water tastes sweet more like rotten milk and rancid meat to me i prefers when it is free like looking at the stars don't need no fancy cars when we first our kisses sparked yeah i'm afraid of sharks but not the dark you did the music thing and i would never sing wanted to be good enough not to be embarrassing i hit the lottery knowing that you're proud of me this is me on ground, not floundering the sound of things not going how we wanted them is paper thin in my mind it was a win and you? i am you. 5. 8. 11. 22. 27. 32.

about

Licki Los Angeles, California

Often ratchet, sometimes rapturous, always raw: Licki (FKA Licki Ucroj) juxtaposes the swagger and wit of contemporary rap with riveting, chaotic, and wholly unexpected production elements to cultivate a sound best described as "gift rap." Think Nicki Minaj's lyricism + Lizzo's performative prowess, raised to the power of an early-aughts indie rock band. ... more
