Listening to EarthGang is like being transported to a cosmic utopia where black excellence and cultural pride reign supreme. Originally high school homies in southwest ATL, Olu aka Johnny Venus and WowGr8 aka Doctur Dot are a brotherhood, a pair of pals who attended HBCU Hampton University together, and returned home with insatiable music dreams. Playin’ the underground venue circuit and droppin’ mixtapes under the name Spillage Village, their creative sounds attracted locals like J.I.D., 6LACK and Young Thug. After multiple mixtapes made the rounds, J. Cole signed them, giving their progressive artistry a proper home at Dreamville. Considering their eccentricities and deep well of musical inspirations, the media started comparing them to OutKast. But everything from Quincy’s cool to Kendrick’s consciousness comes through in an Earthgang track. When we chose them to be part of our DSCVR: Artists To Watch program back in 2017, we knew they would continue to dazzle us. They hit the box to perform “Blue Moon” and “Trippin” from last year’s ‘Mirrorland,’ their very impressive debut disc. It all turned out to be the most funkadelic day we’ve had down at Ctrl central.

The night is ours and the stars, they rise
And the sun goes down on me and you
Who holds the light?
I been hustlin', I don't get no rest, once in a blue moon
Every time I got life figured out, I get bad confused
(Bad confused, bad confused, bad confused, bad confused) yeah, okay
First time I saw you, I knew you was trouble (yeah)
Still, I take the gamble, I'm rollin' the dice (woo)
Knowin' I wasn't willin' to sacrifice
I invested too much time in my trajectory
Rely on my obsession, bitch, I'm finna level up
I'm only lettin' you chill 'cause you let me fuck
And I ain't tryna dog you out
But while you in a nigga face, I'm plottin' and makin' plays
I'm put on this earth to conquer, it's a limit to my days
She say, "Fuck with me papi, get up inside of me"
I'm lovin' her body so deep, it feel like she part of me
I said, "Hold up, lil' Mama", we complicatin' by promisin'
We'd hate to find out, this shit ain't as great as we thought it'd be"
Yoncé and Hova Carter ain't common (no)
We'd be smarter to just fuck and enjoy the camaraderie (yeah)
We not each other property, but wait (huh?)
She ain't waste a breath to argue, she just put it in my face (ah, haha)

Every time I got life figured out (ooh), I get bad confused
(I get bad confused, I get bad confused)
I been hustlin', I don't get no rest
Once in a blue moon (once in a blue moon, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh)
Every time I got life figured out (ooh, every time)
I get bad confused (ooh baby, ooh baby, oh, ooh baby, yeah)
You know I'm so elated, overjoyed and grateful, euphoric
I want everyone to know it, if you hatin' it's gon' show
Slap a smile on my face, that'll brighten up the whole damn place
Scoreboard, I'll take ya, come along
Tell me how you ever stepped out on half-baked dreams
Fed fifty lil' niggas with the fish out the streams (ooh)
I made it, I suppose, her grace is, overflowin' (feel it comin')
I'd be a God damn fool if I took all the credit (no, no)
See the power runnin' through me
All I had to do is get out my way (shoo, shoo)
Short circuit, doors turnin', like the Six Flags gate
Was the time they was shut in my face
But I ain't complainin', I ain't connivin'
I ain't complying unless it's got time to turn up the bass
Baby, I'm praisin', I'm crazy
Come on over honey, give me some sugar
Come on over sugar, give me some honey
Put it right on my tongue and I get back to the money
I been hustlin', I don't get no rest, (I don't get no rest)
Once in a blue moon
Every time I got life figured out (ooh), I get bad confused
(I get, I get)
I been hustlin', I don't get no rest, once in a blue moon (ow, ow)
Every time I got life figured out (I get), I get bad confused
Once in a blue moon
Blue moon, ooh-ooh
