Beautiful song, touching words. Makes you think about more than superficial. So many of us are suffering just to make ends meet and then theres the ones who think of nothing beyond what she can get out the pocket. Grow your minds and help our children. Yeah
I SAVED THAT PERKINS WAY SIGN @ :54 BEFORE OAK PW RECYCLED IT !!! I WAS BLASTING THIS SONG WHEN I DID IT . THANK YOU MYSTIC FOR SUCH A BEAUTIFUL SONG !!! -- MUCH LOVE, THE OAKLAND NINJA
@sistasahra for real the last time I heard her was in 2008 she was on track with aceyalone she just fell off and it sure was not lack of talent she is amazing .
i went crazy looking for this song back in the day. beatstreet,,,nope. rock and soul,,,,nope. found it on a mixtape. had to be content with that,,,,smh
@RiddimMixDJX I can't remember what record store I got 2 copies of this 12 inch at but I still have it.I think I got it at Yellowbird or at Rock & Soul
on the real, this was one of the songs that came out that made me want to truly find a woman that was intelligent in more than just name brand bullshit. next time you meet a heffa that claims she can tell everything about you by lookin' at your shoes, ask her what tell-tell sign or whorish sixth sense does she have for a rich, ingenious philanthropist that she just crossed paths with and he has just literally been robbed naked? unless he was famous by face, how would a hoe like that know? lol
this song is one of my top ten favorite hip hop/r&b songs of all-time
1-goapele-closer, 2-mystic-the life, 3-goapele-first love, 4-souls of mischief-93 til infinity, 5-goapele-milk and honey, 6-hieroglyphics - soweto, 7-hieroglyphics - make your move, 8-blue scholars - joe metro, 9-lost boyz-renee, 10-common-i used to love h.e.r.
@marvinbienaime1 Your comment resonates with me. I am from San Francisco and I (somehow) was lucky enough to buy this album (I can't remember who, how or where) when it was first produced over ten years ago. I lost it while in Vegas and for the last six years, I have been searching for it. FINALLY, it showed up, recently, on iTunes. Thank God I found it again. She is amazing, as is the entire album. Where oh where are you Mystic? We need your vibe in the Bay!!!!
@kim1by Lol, there's always a song that means something to us back then that we forgot the name and title of... Yes she needs to come back, soon too. Today's artist lack the vibe yesterday's artist provided for us.
This song is incredible...I really wish more people knew about it. Maybe if she got butt implants, wore a pink wig and rapped like a retard more ppl would feel her.
...when ur right u right, u cant argue facts..my man just put me up on this song & I know what Im talkin bout when it comes to music..whoever DannielleRenne is..UR GONNA MAKE IT FAR WITH A POINT OF VIEW LIKE THAT MA!!! ...dont matter what color skin u got how much $ u got etc. a real motha fu^&%$er comes in every shape size color BOI!!!!!!!!
I really love this song., especially this version since it doesn't have the rapping. I gotta be honest, I really don't feel her as an emcee. I listened to the album and it wasn't horrible, but I was hoping it would have more songs like this.
I just wrote a ridiculous hip hop joint to this beat, so it sounds weird when I hear the original... dope song though, but it feels like a waste. Ahh well, I ripped it to pieces lol.
greetings and thank you all for the love. we are celebrating the 10 year anniversary of the album:) you are not only invited to share but i'm asking you to:) you can ask me for the link here @thatgirlmystic love, m
I freaking LOVE this song... my sista... I heard this song in a mash up or a sample on something... Kept searching for it... Found it & thought it was pretty cool that the name was Mystic... as my name is Mistye.
i don't give a fuck if she's a female mc. i grew up to this album. shame she didn't come out with more. if you truly listen to music, even if you don't love her shit; you immediately notice that she's better than a majority of the bullshit that gets shoved in your face on a daily basis.
Not to be rude and pass any hate to current artist out there, but when I see this woman and her talent it makes me just wanna say fuck it to Beyonce, Nicki, Rihanna and the rest of today's musical influences...aka pop culture. It's a shame that artists like Mystic who spread positivity, love and truth are frowned upon in the music industry.
it's sad when you see such great artists getting skipped by the masses for whores and crackheads that have no talent , yet they reach the top. fucked up world we live in
@cashscholar Yes we met briefly, and i'm not trying to bash her at all. All the people who make music that kinda sounds like this are phony too...Common, Erykah Badu, Jill Scott, ect...
thank you! the album is indeed out of print but can occasionally be found on amazon or ebay. thank you for the love. "beautiful resistance" is coming soon. i have continued to write for films, do a rare collab here and there, do community work, get a college degree, and still record. my "absence" has been fully intentional. brilliant days to you all and love:) -mys
@thatgirlmystic i was in the bay area last weekend to see goapele in concert and met her and i said come to boston and bring mystic, souls of mischief, del. we get to see all the true (underrated) talent from the east like az, keith murray, redman, das efx yearly but we have love for the underrated talent from oakland like you guys too
anyways much love for "the life" - it is a timeless gem and will sound just as good 20 years from now like "closer" and "93 til infinity"
@thatgirlmystic - cuts for luck scars for freedom is still one of my most-treasured albums. still in heavy rotation BELIEVE DAT and i put everyone on that i can cuz to me you epitomize everything about talented women with something to say and jus the right combo of grace n swag to say it RIGHT. u r amazing and a true inspiration to me and im so glad u exist! i've never said that to an artist b4, but ur album is the SHIT and i really hope you continue to make music. u r 1 of the best 2 ever do it
@sistasahra That's RIGHT! You said it all! This album has been a piece of my heart since it was first produced. Her voice, her rhymes.....sublime. THAT is for real. Thank you Mystic.
@GrindStreetMusic this version was made without my knowledge. vh1 soul, at the time, played no rap so this was really made for them and all of the stations that did not play rap at the time. i never perform this version.
fatherless child is great so was neptunes jewles, does anyone know where there are anymore cd's. Where I got my original one is closed down everywhere else says they aint got it. is she still doin things, performin?
@eriestarroxsj Try Amazon, they usually have hard to find or out of print albums. As far as I know, I think she's still performing, I don't know for sure. The last song that I've seen her on was singing background vocals on Maroon 5's song "Sunday Morning"...and that was like six or seven years ago!!!
@thatgirlmystic good lookin, chillin in sj for a min, but spring is about here and would LOVE to see a show before I rox out again, somethin the baybees can see would be good too. got three lil ones that luv for mama to bump your words.......
This is her greatest song, true poetry in hip hop is underground and being slept on:
Eligh - Mystic Beautiful Resistance
Even if you don't like hip hop this song is deep and applies to us all, will you please come back and vote up this comment, so the song can get more exposure. I've never asked for any votes before.
I was wondering why I hadn't heard this song much... or heard much about her locally, so I did a lil research and realized this song came out the same year as Goapele's single Closer. That explained everything. 80)
know how long it took us to find her again, always had the cd years back. She is without a doubt unbelievably real and unlike any other, LOVE HER!!! What cd is this on so I can buy it again, any others anyone knows about too would be awesome!!
I love this album...still have this album...still play this album.My only concern is that they took her rap verse out for the video.ALL WOMEN should find,buy and listen to it. BLESS UP Mystic!!!
R&B was still great in 01',now there are no more soul singers in R&B that are mainstream.Back then we had Erykah Badu, Lauryn Hill, Angie Stone, Jill Scott, India Arie, Amel Larrieux, Gospele, Floetry, Macy Gray,Mystic, things have changed in a major way.
Got used to hearing this song on the second disk of SCRATCH when Z-Trip was demonstrating how to do smooth transitions from one song to another - (the other song was Lady Don't Tek No by Latyrx and produced by DJ Shadow).

Met her at ROTR in 2002... I was so stoned & when she sang this song I fell in love with her voice. I wonder why she hasn't made more music. She is a beautiful woman with an outstanding talent. She is also sooo cool to speak to and so grounded and down to earth. I wish her the best
@phaze101200oo the commercial was cleared by me. i own my publishing. if you remember, all the women were clothed and the presentation was appropriate. there were answers i needed for clearance to be given and they were provided. paz
i really missed that song :) i searched for this songi couldnt find it it was in my head for 10 years :) a relaxing song indeed :)

Got used to hearing this song on the second disk of SCRATCH when Z-Trip was demonstrating how to do smooth transitions from one song to another - (the other song was Lady Don't Tek No by Latyrx and produced by DJ Shadow).
Trouble is, on that demo he bumped the BPM from 95 up to 97 and that made the tuning brighter - about the difference between A-431 and A-440. A lot of people don't know what I'm talking about and don't care, but I do. I'm not used to the lower tuning at original tempo!

Met her at ROTR in 2002... I was so stoned & when she sang this song I fell in love with her voice. I wonder why she hasn't made more music. She is a beautiful woman with an outstanding talent. She is also sooo cool to speak to and so grounded and down to earth. I wish her the best

Sad they used this on a beer commercial when it has much more meaning than beer.

@phaze101200oo the commercial was cleared by me. i own my publishing. if you remember, all the women were clothed and the presentation was appropriate. there were answers i needed for clearance to be given and they were provided. paz
