Q Tip - Life is Better (featuring Norah Jones)
So I’m in my finals season at school, crazy time, and usually when I’m doing work I love to listen to just amped up, hip hop. Q Tip’s album has been on STEADY rotation, for some reason I just work 10x faster.
This song is a good one with Norah singing vocals, and her voice has this crazy flow that I love to listen to. Apparently a lot of other rappers and hip hop artists feel the same way because I always hear her voice in the background. This song also won the Gilles Peterson’s award for best song of the year. I can see why.
Not much to say about it, it’s just a good song to groove to, feel the love, listen to when you are walking on a cool sunny day.
Now back to work. Be easy.

Norah Jones:
Life is filled with gray
But now he comes to me
Please fall away
Hip hop is playing again
And it’s bangin too
Gonna bang for you
Dont stop this feeling I feel
I just wanna run out all day for you and breathe for you at least
Im soo into your rich history
Tell me a story and take me away
Cmon and take me oooo
Cmon and take me with uuu
Chorus:
Life is, better
Now that, now that Ive found you
Life is, better
Now that, now that Ive found you
Life is, better
Now that, now that Ive found you
Life is, better
Now that, now that Ive found you
Life is, better
Now that, now that Ive found you
Life is, better
Now that, now that Ive found you
Life is, better
Now that, now that Ive found you
Life is, better
Now that, now that Ive found you
Q-Tip:
One step at a time, a man walked on the moon
One record got played Kool Herc said boom
One minute young man, your time come soon
We waiting, it was prophetsized you loom
We bang our drums, message in our sound
We rastlers and we takin up in your town
Hands set in
Tts perfected on this vibe Im gettin
Play is set in,
*Names various Mcs and rappers*
An when u look into my eyes, it makes all these feelings rise
Makes for a better place, cant u see youre in my face?
Norah Jones and Q-Tip: Chorus
Life is, better
Now that, now that Ive found you
Life is, better
Now that, now that Ive found you
Life is, better
Now that, now that Ive found you
Life is, better
Now that, now that Ive found you
Life is, better (Life is betta, since Ive found u)
Now that, now that Ive found you
Life is, better (Life is betta, since Ive found u)
Now that, now that Ive found you
Life is, better (Life is betta, since Ive found u)
Now that, now that Ive found you
Life is, better (Life is betta, since Ive found u)
Now that, now that Ive found you
