XV - A Girl Named Destiny ft. AC

The first verse was nothing special, and the second was pretty good. Cool production but the lyrics brought its rating down.

im kinda get-n sick of thiz dude. yeah i am....i keep x-pect-n a gud track from him but he neva seemz 2 make one. yeah i dont lyk n-e-thing about thiz song. beat=0, lyricz=dont care.

i like it,its got that old skewl good times feel to it..hence why hes rockin' an old skewl nintendo and sega in his pic..lol

Real nice beat it's creative. XV and AC did alright on it.

Oh you simple minded people that can't HEAR the true lyrics behind the song...he, along with talking about destiny, connects to hurricane katrina in his first verse...and because he stood up destiny, it saved him from katrina...

this is from XV himself:

TODAY…I dropped, “A Girl Named Destiny” featuring AC. I talk about a girl we all know named, Destiny, but I stand her up. And it saves my life.\

—————————————————————————

I met this girl named Destiny.
I knew that she would be the death of me.
Too pretty for her own good,
You prolly seen her out in yo’ hood.
But she caught me, called me, on August 23rd,
3 years ago, but I still remember her words.
She said come down south, right now I’m in Alabama.
But in a few of days I’m a be in Louisiana.
I’m just chillin’ out with my Grandma, I miss you though,
and your Midwest stammar, so hit the road.
No, baby, I gotta finish some beats.
Besides, I thought we was goin’ to Texas in a week.
She said if you don’t come we prolly will never meet.
And if you stand me up we prolly will never speak.
I heard her homegirl Katrina came to look her up.
I had a date with destiny, I’m glad I stood her up.

————————————————————————————

So, “destiny” is calling me to come meet her in Louisiana. I stand her up. And Katrina comes. Mind boggling. Get ready for a CRAZY record tonight.

9th snapped on this production! I already knew from the intro that it was going to be a smash. That sample is ill. I felt he could have used some hard kicks and a cleaner snare that snapped back with a slight reverb. That would have set this track off perfectly. DANG Jaydee. Your further description of this joint's underlying topic is mad crazy! That just makes the track so much better! XuUP17, you better take that back. The first verse was ABSOLUTELY something special! That's awesome!

Listen to the sublime undertone that we all have a date with destiny. And it is up to us to fulfill it

after reading jaydee08's comment it raised my rating a star because i dont think i wuld have understood what the underlining meaning was. i didnt really like AC's part but.. i still like this. it is chill.

very very well done. this song has more symbolism than kafka.

Beautiful. The best song XV has dropped so far. No doubt

This track goes hard. I`ve never hard about these guys before but I want to hear more.

Mmmm it's not my type of song, I guess the best part of it are the lyrics...which I don't understand so I won't rate! Anyway I was catched by the title, it must be a deep song

*I was caught sorry grammatical mistake :P

Nope.. hand this beat/track over to Lupe and let him rip it..

This sample is like a couple of years old...
It thought it was a nice beat that no one was using...
Its good to finally hear someone using it...

Wow, this is some good @*#$!.

XV comes correct again. For all those who doubt his prowess as an emcee you need to look no further than his "The Square In the Circle". His lyrics are in depth and meaningful but not to the point where they are "too complex" for some to understand.

Chilling beat. Like the lyrics too.

DAMN!!!! ARE PEOPLE THAT SIMPLE MINDED AUGUST 23RD=HURICANE KATRINAGIRL NAMED DESTINY=KNEW SHED BE THE DEATH OF ME =HURRICANE KILLED MANY PEOPLE-IN ALABAMA IN A FEW DAYS ILL BE LUOISINANA BE IN TEXAS IN A WEEK

PattyPatty85, read Jaydee's description...you'll understand the lyrics a lot better! DJ XLR8, Jaydee already explained all of that, way more detailed above.

This song is sick, XV has proven me wrong since the 1st time i heard him, lyrics are very deep and thought provoking (well for me anyway) and 9th Wonders production is good as well

I like when artists do this kinda thing with metaphors and similes

Dammmmnnnnn This @*#$! is hot. Gotta love 9th Wonder. He shits fire.

clssic song

The female voocals on the chorus dont help the instrumental here but both XV & AC do their part here...2.5

Two thumbs up for an ominous beat, creativity and historical context-tis' good.
