Appropriate? Eh.. Who cares?

Well, it has been a minute since we've done one of these. I got an excuse, though. My laptop's in the effin shop, so I been confined to the old computer. It's all good, though. Found a couple beat gems, and a track that that I TOTALLY (R.I.P. Brittany Murphy) forgot about. There will definitely be more music during this winter break. Trust me... Seriously... Trust me.

I Feel..


about as cool as this song right now for no reason in particular. Maybe it's the basketball shorts. Maybe it's the anticipation to get some songs done this weekend. Maybe it's because I've started three sentences with the same word. 

I'm looking for some Joans.

Random Topic of The Week: Lunar Halos




This is a "ring around the moon" or lunar halo. Vastly overexposed in this 8 second exposure, in the center of the frame, is the moon.
Halos are caused by sunlight being refracted by cirro-stratus clouds. In the case of this lunar halo, the sunlight was first reflected off the gibbous moon, which was three days past full. Cirro-stratus clouds are thin clouds, very high in the atmosphere, and are composed of ice crystals. They bend light at a 22 degree angle, which creates a solar halo or lunar halo that is 44 degrees in diameter.

inside the deep minds of sooners...


Facebook statuses = inner-most thoughts

This is the first time I'd ever noticed this phenomenon. Three Sooners posting statuses within minutes of each other and no one in between. Crazy. Almost as crazy as this new bbbeat of mine that I ain't played for nobody. BLAOW!

The XX - Crystalised




A video from the album that gets the most play when in the car. Like this morning at 5:30 when Carlito&I went to Shortpump for BlackFriday. Starbucks was PACKED. Next year some of us should camp out.

Gon Getcha Some



Cheahhhh!!!!!

Its that time of year again when skinny ppl (like me....and the rest of the Sooners) can pig out like our more full bodied counterparts.

So in the wise words of my boy Big Sean when your Grandma offers you that extra plate you better "Gon Getcha Some"


Stay Up

The next time I get a moment to sit down and do something constructive I'm going to make sure I procrastinate by setting up an appointment with him for one of these next summers. As for the present? There is work in the morning, afternoon, and probably evening/night. So ladies, keep it tight.

"Just Ventin"



"Ahemmmm"

So, it feels like we've been doing this for a lifetime (To me at least...)  ,and while I am proud of how far we've gotten.. There's always room for improvement. I know on this journey called life, we still have a long way to go, and that's the main reason I am so glad we are doing this music thing. To chronicle our ups and downs, good-times and bad nights, and just plain goofy moments. So one day when we have the time and urge to look back we'll know that it all bad out in the end, regardless of the success we may or may not have achieved, we'll know that we had a damn good time doing it. Making memories and sharing moments with anyone with enough will to listen to these group of average astounding guys with dreams, hopes, goals, fears, and wishes; just like you.. but maybe a little more twisted. So keep enjoying the music...and you know we'll enjoy making it. Signing out...

THIS IS MY SHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII. I remember looking for this mp3 for ages! a few days and could never locate it. Beth Gibbons delivers, and the production?! Man, classic. So emotional! So dramatic!

Our first external feature. Mama, we made it off our own blog!

Can't you tell by the explanation exclamation marks...!!! Finally!!! Someone gave us the time of day to listen to our mixtape. And here's the kicker.... he liked it. It may not be one of the super-major blogs (I'm looking at you 2dopeboyz) but that doesn't even start to lessen our gratitude. iDOPEBOY, you really came through for us. No previous relation, no butt-kissin, just real recognizing real (<--- How cool am I for saying that? very.) Some pics that made my morning much better. BIG shoutouts to idopeboy.imstrate.com.

Sunday Night Insomnia: The Mixtape

Get Well Soon,GWS
Click the image to download.


I finally decided to put what we've been doing in a cohesive collection. If you've been following the blog (like you should've), you probably heard a good amount of these songs. If you haven't, welcome to Get Well Soon. Everybody has experienced that feeling on Sunday night when you can't go to sleep because you slept in on Saturday and Sunday morning after a full night of partying and getting wasted volunteering at the orphanage. It's what we call Sunday Night Insomnia. So we decided to start releasing tracks for those that stay awake, while the losers everyone else is enjoying a good night of sleep. Here's 16 tracks for the niggies and the bitties, which includes some unreleased isht, brought to you by the good folks at Get Well Soon.

Sunday Night Insomnia 10/25/09

Looks like the posters have been slacking lately. Personally, I had the swine flu, so I take zero blame for that. We do got a new track for y'all, though. Over some good ol' Dilla production, which is always good. I got homework to do, tests to study for, and I feel like I should be doing something musically. Well folks... I'm failing at all three. So, let's make it happen!

SoundCloud Test.Something Wrong




Testing out Sound Cloud. Seems nice so far but only being able to upload five tracks(hopefully 5 tracks show up.) a month is a bummer since I don't plan on getting a pro account anytime soon.

Bang Gang- Something Wrong by theSOONERS

Bang Gang's last album up since I don't have five tracks of ours on this cpu. Might as well promote somebody, right? Listen to it. Appreciate it. Love it. I am.

*Wondering where the live action Fist of the Northstar video is..*

Newest Inspiration/Fascination: Film-Noir



I would explain how&why I fell into this deep interest for film-noir within these past few hours but I'm too busy scouring Google for the soundtracks to Asphalt Jungle and Key Largo. Not to mention I need to get into my 2k10 Association (miDDLecLass vice #1.). So here's a wikiLINK.

Maybe Portishead's 'Dummy' album (which has been on a constant loop all day) is to blame? Any way you cut it, Wiki wins.

Well here we go again, another sunday another fun-day! (or not). I know you've been missing MARS, well here's something to feed your appetite. Some more rap for the soul. I recorded the first version of this song a couple of weeks ago and finally came back to write another verse. Here it is-

My bbbad, people. My bbbad. I forgot we had this track in the vaults. He went in on this track, so the title was fitting (no shots at everybody's favorite dog-loving football player that might've been a low blow) Anyways.... here's some new heat from Mars' favorite rapper.

You can drop a link in the comments section or you can send it to our email at gwsamerica@gmail.com

Teaching um... Who cares? Kids love Field Trips!

Everybody who visited this site regularly (or semi-regularly) last year knows that we didn't do to well with having consistent posts. Well, we're trying to change that mentality this year. It's time to get busy! (corny punchline. Hah.) That means more music, more middleclassmen, more um.... I don't know where else to go with this sentence. But I know for a fact (for a fiddddact) that you're not actually here to READ what I have to say. Y'all can't read anyway. I'm trying to keep my good karma, so enough chit-chat.... Here's the new track niggies and bitties!

So, what now?

Hello bastards and broads it tis yours truley MARS aka Patrick Blayze, so I KNOW you wondering "what's next for get well soon?" Well I am too so we're in the same boat. But let's enjoy the trip, new musuic will be posted soon. Yaknow! -MARS

Hump Dee?

I was telling D.U.C.E. about this the other day.(because his name is/used to be an acronym.. "Get Well Trivia!") The kinds of commercials I come home to after midnight.. Notice the Old Man's 'sugar-feet' though.

When bad ideas come to fruition.. and get even worse.

this is a public service announcement


Not sponsored by Rocafella... but, still very entertaining. I don't know why, but I find old PSAs wildly amusing. Like I can't help but to smile when I see these. So I'm going start spreading the joy like VD! (is that a pun or just a lame joke?) Anywho, apparently, the number one fact off life is "VD gets around." I can't make this stuff up people. It seems like songs were the way to appeal to the young generation then, so they came up with this stuff. Can't understand why she's so happy to sing about it. And this is what they used to have on TV. Why don't they have this on TV anymore?

P.S. New track will be released by the end of the week.

if i only had some cash: notebook? edition

I always wondered why they called laptops, "notebooks." It always just seemed like more confusion than it was worth, BUT I get it now (I get it!)! ::lightbulb flickers overhead:: This right here, though! This right here?! Bananas. insert lame joke here. If this was put in my price range of about $20, I'd hop on the nearest bus to the nearest airport, to the nearest place in Asia selling it (cause I'm almost positive they gonna get it first, like c'mon... made in taiwan?). Apparently Microsoft is developing it and it might be like, the future of computers. Goodness gracious I need some money. Such is the life of a college boy(? man? young adult? scrapper? hooligan?) This thing is like some type of tablet laptop/book type thing that can instantly make you the envy of your friends. (no lie: that's actually the tagline) don't sue me microsoft.

simply, the carter


This may have been the top video for GWS in 08 (and part of 09). I remember the day too... I saw it extra late one night in September 08. So that means when I decided to show it too the fellas, it may have turned out much weaker than what I experienced when I was 3/4-way into a deep sleep. BUT, luckily for everybody, after a slow start, it ended SUPERBLY. Had it full screen on the big TV, too. Just marvelous. After that, we spread the news of the video around school and it just hit like BLAOW (NICCAT!)! If you ain't seent it yet, just watch. And make sure you watch the WHOLE thing. AND JEEZ there were just soo many quotables... like which one is the best?

So, you know Mars. If not, you should know soon. New track produced by Willie Green (good look on the production). Mixed and mastered at the local sweatshop.

So you may not know about this song, but if you did... They wait is finally over. Middleclassmen two SNI's in a row? Somebody's getting on the griiiinnnd!!! Enough talk though. Listen to the track... (I feel like we should make a video for this one...)

iHate(2's)days - .middleclassmen


iHate(2's)DAYS update....

Well, for those that know about it, this is a highly anticipated track. But then again... so is every Get Well Soon track (yeah, i'm feeling myself [| |]. so what?) It should be getting released tonight. However, that's only if the Magic win this Game 7. If the Celtics win (hopefully not.), then the track isn't coming out til Tuesday/Wednesday. Why? Cause I effin' feel like it! Thats why! Chea!

We wanted to put an intro on this, but that wasn't done in time but still... I been playing this track on repeat for like an hour even though I'm tryin' to listen to alot less rap for a while (read: Mission Impossible). We'll see how that goes. Here goes the fruits of miDDLecLassmen's labor.

Rob - Four Seasons of Frostbite

SO ever since January I've been practicing with my poetry team, Nahuatl (pronounced na-what), for a competition called the Soundbites Poetry Festival held on Broadway in NY. On April 10th-12th, we competed against about 9 other teams, mainly concentrated from NY, and we ripped them...ALL!!! Repping Richmond VA hard, we became the champions of the competition (we were rewarded a nice lil amount of prize moolah too.) Anyways, that Friday I got to perform at the "famous" Nuyorican Poet's Cafe. That whole weekend was amazing for me, so I thought it would be nice to share a piece of that with you:

"OOOOOOHHH!!! 757 on 'em"


Ah man.... we (read: Middle Classmen) probably coulda been way more productive considering we had a whole week (springbreak) to record. But we were SUPER-productive for the first 6 hours of one day, and then... pure exhaustion. At one point, we were recording a new track (not this one) and then all of a sudden the whole computer cuts off. We were on the last verse. Pandemonium ensued (hm... didn't know I knew that word...). We look down and see the charger is unplugged like the gods were working on their sabotaging skills. Luckily ,the track was recovered though. But by this time... Huh...? I'm supposed to be putting up a track? Not ranting? Jeez... a brother try to share his experiences and this is how... Man... Just take the track. ungrateful bastards...
