~ 01 Chase The Dream I ~ #ChaseTheDream #NotTheMoney ~

 Never let it be said, that... "Just Nice critics, fall on the death ears"

~ Just Nice ~

Revamped and reloaded, Just Nice takes on this circle research  produced Heat Rock.  Delving into a wide variety of topics...... he elaborates upon the true meaning of chase the dream and not the money.  This is the first in a series of lyrical manifesto that are played out throughout the album.    Foregoing the traditional skits and entertaining interludes, Just provides what listeners have come to expect, (Nice Music).  Playing heavily on the sample I don't really love, Just metaphorically relates the relationship between chasing his dream and that of a woman.  He takes solace in the fact that both recognize he's coming.

~ 04 Chase The Dream II ~ #ChaseTheDream #NotTheDream



... bred in the 90's an 80's baby by timing / 
You could tell by the rhyming / 
He's got a culture behind him...

~ Just Nice ~

JU$T NICE in this second (journalistic) entry, provides listeners with a plethora of thoughts to ponder... Touching on the era (of 90's rap) that most influenced him musically, he provides a foundation for further examination.  Obviously, those that have followed his career from its early days, are well aware of his ability to embody a wide range.  However, this one is strictly for the Hip Hop Heads!!!

Circle Research (the production team) provided both the Intro and Outro make another audio appearance on this piece.  Flipping an auspicious loop the guys keep the tempo slow and instrumentation to minimum.  Many have begun to make comparisons to Alchemist & Nasir... We'll see in time if we able to get a "Nice Research" Album!

~ 07 Chase The Dream III ~ #ChaseTheDream #NotTheMoney ~

To much for these part timers 
Got my degree in music / specializing in hard rhymes

~ Just Nice ~

Rodrick (or R. Burns) makes his production debut on this installment "Chase The Dream (III)".  To assure he's Keeping heads nodding, he utilizes a throw back sample from Mr. Burns (The Simpsons) to intro the track.  Then as many have come to expect from Just; he provides the perfect amount of lyrical dexterity and pure swag to colorfully illuminate the track. 

Tossing barb after barb... Nice is relentless in his approach! Take a second to hear it on your medium of choice below...

~ 12 Chase The Dream IV ~ #ChaseTheDream #NotTheMoney ~

Years later... remain Awe, of all the thoughts it provoke
Few scars is notice though out side this pain in my throat

~ Ju$T NiCE ~


For the final interlude JUST hooks back up with Circle Research... He then, in an introspective fashion questions his own destiny and recognizes that in the bigger picture "the tables are rarely balanced".  However, success is truly in the hands of those bold enough to define it. 

Kicking his bars in a slower less methodical fashion, he allows the listeners to truly digest his smack.  And some good smack it is... From paying homage to his old state, to valuing his new state of mind Nice does it all on this one... Take a listen below

~ 09 Who's The Nicest ~ #ChaseTheDream #NotTheMoney ~

Word smith about this action / like these verb is...
Book and street smart / 
so i'm smarter... than these nerds is

~ Just Nice ~

"Who's The Nicest"... We're assuming its rhetorical question. For those who have never seen or heard Nice body beats, this is an excellent point to start.  As has become tradition for everyone of his street tapes, he provides a lesson in lyricism... strictly for the purest.

With Kirk Olie handling the rings as producer Just effortlessly hurdles through a number of different beats, pasterns and rhyme schemes.  Buckle up and settle in for the ride! We hear shades of The Game, Canibus and Joe Budden.  Let us know what you hear...

~ 11 Me And My N%##@ ~ #ChaseTheDream #NotTheMoney

 Me and my N!##@'s Go back like pampers 
Ya'll N!##@'s is dirty / 
You'll end up in dirty hampers

~ N. Nance ~

Taking it back to the earlier days of Project Pleasure... Nance brings that vintage freestyle flow that helped the crew establish their following.  This is definitely one roll up to!  While lingo is far from what we've come to expect from Just... Its Nice to see that he remains true to the songs values... Feed back welcome...

~ 08 Just Digital ~ #ChaseTheDream #NotTheMoney ~

You got friends, I got friends too... I'm with It
You got plans, I got plans to... Include me in them

~ Just Nice ~

A Nash (a constant collaborator as of late)... blesses this Lexosyl/Dilom produced soul joint "Just Digital".  Originally, the track was  supposed to feature a couple other emcees.  However, after securing the proper vibe on the hook, Nice decided to keep it bouncing on the solo tip.  Be sure to stay tuned for remix COMING SOON!!!

Comparing our societies current digital addiction with that of a volatile relationship, Just draws upon multiple comparisons to explore the rational for not leaving.  Perhaps the imperfections or the minor eccentricities are large part of the drawl... Anyhow, take a listen to "Just Digital" here:

~ 03 Spandex ~ #ChaseTheDream #NotTheMoney~


I hate when emcees say "I'm lyrical".  It seems like something that should be evident. 

~ Just Nice ~

JU$T NICE and Drm Spch come together to concoct one of the summers most creative and timely joints ever.  Bombarded by the beautiful weather on the west coast, Nice was inspired to create an ode to the most used but, seldom celebrated garment "SPANDEX".  From the petite princesses to the full figured beauties Spandex have become a staple and apparently Nice isn't too mad about it!

Assisting in this composition FuEGO V1 provides an upbeat playful vibe to this soul driven 90's throw back.  While doG Child fluctuating timber (reminiscent of Prince in his earlier days) assures that the track remains in pocket.  Both Darnell (previously heard on "You Never Know Who's Watching") and Nadia (a new addition to this growing collective) bring the track full circle with playful metaphors... This is definitely one for the tape deck, (excuse me)  MP3's.

~ 02 How It Goes Part 2 ~ #ChaseTheDream #NotTheMoney ~



All in your grill like HD3, I got card... Can-I-B(y)-Us? THC... 

~ Just Nice ~
"How It Goes Part 2" an obvious sequel to the certified hood banger, "How It Goes" (DeeBoi - Overtime Pay) was a last minute addition to the project.  The track features a handful of
premiere artists including SONNY BLACK (216), Lil EVil (916), Sam-Sin (209) and of course JU$T NICE.

Trading bars throughout this four minute opener, each emcee displays his lyrical dexterity... In it, we see everything from the rapid deliver in the beginning to the slowed down southern bounce at the end.  Take a second to listen to the track below & feel free to comment!

~ 06 All For Nothing ~ #ChaseTheDream #NotTheMoney ~

 http://chasethedreamnotthemoney.blogspot.com/2013/07/all-for-nothing-chasethedream.html
Through the years "New Years" I Invested
Investing so long I feel 
You got the spot on ME! Where Your Breast Is!

~ Just Nice ~

 JU$T NICE along with the entire cast (minus Darnell) from "Spandex" reunite once again for this Dj Sharehl produced banger "All For Nothing".  Testing out the rapid delivery Just throws a barrage of: tensely tied-up tongue twisters in an effort to explain the troubling outcome of a relationship with an x.  Not to be out done, Fuego,also throws himself in the mix... landing a couple solidified haymakers with bars like...
"I don't play with my girls triggers / I keep Password on my phone / For all these biting as N*##@

With Nice and Fuego handling the rhyming... doG Child (now going by Rayshod) and Nadia hold down the infectious Hook... The collective brings all necessary elements together to certify this song Niiiiiicccceee!!! Peep the record below:

~ 10 Trap Sutra ~ #ChaseTheDream #NotTheMoney ~

http://chasethedreamnotthemoney.blogspot.com/2013/07/trap-sutra-chasethedream-notthemoney.html


 Trap harder than baby mommas // More hood strips than a prison suit
Made it out of foul circumstances // Barely floating like an inner-tube

~ Just Nice ~

TrapSutra aptly titled after the producer Trapzilla is another Just Nice & Fuego concoction.  The duo take turns playing with a variety of metaphors for trapping, all while ridding the dub step like beat.   
This joint goes, also be sure to check out the extended version which features doG Child excuse me Rayshod!!!

Many have already started campaigning to get an entire project from these brothers; I guess only time will tell... Until then enjoy "TrapSutra" and let us know what you think below...

~ 13 Open Inbox For Dr. Waters ~ #ChaseTheDream #NotTheMoney ~


I Got a fever since we spoke / An even higher degree
But the more I go to the clinic / That just higher fee
Let these spots got national / I could pay it with ease
Cause once you make it M's / You don't worry about G's

~ Ju$T NiCE ~

In the two years since graduating from CSUMB Nice has experienced a world wind of emotional highs and lows. In this joint he reflects on the experience and pays respect to the individual that heavily influenced the move...

~ 05 Be Your Friend ~ #ChaseTheDream #NotTheMoney ~

 http://chasethedreamnotthemoney.blogspot.com/2013/07/be-your-friend-chasethedream-notthemoney.html


  (She was) Most popular / I was crazy as F*$#
Before the Kardashian(s) / My First Armenian crush

~ Just Nice ~

When JU$T NICE hooked back up with SUPER PRODUCERS LEXOSYL & Dilom... Few could've predicted this would be the outcome... Rather than taking the production to an even darker place,  Nice playfully pokes holes in his own machismo (something rarely done by hardcore emcees).  Reminiscing on his more innocent days he tells the story three different cases where as he states: his "mind was far ahead of where (his) maturity (was) at"...


Forgoing any features (or the obligatory vocalist) to smooth out the hook, he croons out this infectious tune on the solo tip!  Each sixteen getting even more enthralling, he first reflects from his earlier mind state on "NINA" the young lady that I'm sure every guy and probably (most of the girls) at his elementary school were in awe of.  Then on to a childhood's friends mother and culminating with his affection toward his high school English teacher.  Enjoy the track below...
