What do you call

Somebody

Who brings hope

To the hopeless

Put it on me like soil on seed

I'm made to go like foil over the greens

I'm in a league with me and no other team

So I don't feel any need to compete

Most of my early work way back as a teen

Still better than anything that you done released

Boy I been poppin like backyard weed

Boy I been poppin like granny's reused grease

Boy I been talking bout how they music is weak

And they try to justify it by saying they keeping it street

I be on a beat deep thoughts and a complex

Gotta win when I shouldn't see it as a contest

I'll be honest I'm blessed I'm American

I say that more for the location than the heritage

Land of the free home of the arrogant

But hopeful to be the reason people care again

Amen

Amen

Said before I settle I would leave earth

Banded with the rebels do the research

Found out that the devil had wings first

So I beg to differ you say I need church

Dippin through a city with no guidelines

They just killed one of his children right in God's eyes

I was all about the mission but in hindsight

That meant staying out the way trying to bide time

Every line like iodine on my side

I'm sanitized I'm that clean I'm sterilized

I never lie I been solo my whole life

Handing out humble pie

Get a whole slice

See when it was meant for me I had to own mine

Turned a alternate opinion to a gold mine

Now it's white gold fronts out front

Sitting right in front yo main one yep, yep

Amen

straight 8 shootout japan 2018 - launch video - Duration: 3:03.

hello Japan how are you?

my name is Ed Sayers I'm from straight 8 in London

this is not London but

that's where I'm from

and we have launched the straight 8 shootout Japan

and we would like you to enter

so I'm making this little video in one take with no edits

so if I get it a bit wrong please bear with me

it's not very long

it's gonna be 2 and a half minutes

which is exactly how long you will have

to create a story about anything

and see it for the first time at its premiere

but you have to make the whole film

on one cartridge of super 8 film

so each cartridge looks like this

and it's got some film in it

and that film lasts 2.5 minutes

there is no creative brief

you can make a story about anything

happy, sad, fiction, fact, it doesn't matter

but every single time you pull the trigger

you're editing your film

so that was my shot 1

I can't do it again.

now I'm gonna take my shot 2

it looks really good over there

trust me

so that's shot 2

and i carry on

until I reach the end of the film

making every creative choice on the shoot

and at the end the film will say "exposed"

then, when you've done that

you send the film back to us in London

we're gonna get it processed

you work on your soundtrack which must be original

and you won't have seen your film when you're making your soundtrack

so you won't know how well it will line up

and the first time you will see your film is with everybody else at the premiere

it's really good fun

we've been doing it at Cannes Film Festival and Cannes Advertising Festival

and lots of other festivals

and this is the first time we're bringing it to Japan

so with the help of San Takashima

and some other members of the team there

we're really looking forward to see you enter to seeing you enter

if you have any questions email ed@straight8.net

or san@straight8.net in Japanese

and we'll tell you all about who's entering so far

what you need to do by when

and any questions you've got

basically we want you to have fun

be very free creatively

with all these technical limitations

and really enjoy it and go for it

you can get these cameras very easily all over the place

don't be worried about getting one

the thing to worry about is the idea

once you have a great idea

the camera, the crew, the locations,

everything will just fall into place

so really have fun

check out our website: straight8.net

and you can see some of the past films that have done really well

including some made by Japanese companies already for Cannes and CICLOPE

I really hope you go for it and we hope to hear from you

so shout with your questions or just start registering now on our or on our website

all the details are there
