1) Northstar was an American alternative punk rock band formed in 1997 in Huntsville, Alabama.

Since the beginning they have had around 5 guitarists and 3 different bassists, have been a 3 piece, 5 piece, and a 4 piece, and have had two different singers. Being from Alabama, where there is no rock scene, they decided to start touring around the country in 2000. They booked their first tour, bought a van, and set out on the road. Since then, they have been on 5 tours.

After two years of polishing their do-it-yourself skills of booking, promoting, and producing everything that is Northstar, the band ended up signing a deal in June of 2002 with Triple Crown Records in New York.

Northstar broke up in April 2005. Nicolas Torres and Tyler Odom created Cassino. The demos for Cassino were recorded with Matt Squire and used drummer Will Noon, of Straylight Run fame.

2) Northstar is a hip hop group consisting of Christ Bearer and Meko The Pharoah. Wu-Tang Clan affiliate.

Used to record with fellow Californian group Black Knights as Black Knights Of The North Star, and indeed the two groups were initially signed as such to Wu-Tang Records. The groups have since split into two separate units, and Northstar released their debut album in 2003, titled Bobby Digital Presents Northstar, which also featured a reunion with Black Knights on the closing song "Black Knights Of The North Star". Their second album West Coast Killa Beez was released in 2005.

3) Northstar is a unique combination of rappers, producers and profesionally trained jazz musicians hailing from Toronto.

4) NorthStar was an melodic hard rock/metal band from Los Angeles, California. They released an obscure and highly prized rare Hitman Studios demo in 1985. The band was a regular on the Sunset Strip, opening for bands like Great White, Warrant and Poison. They also headlined at Gazzarri's but were never signed by a major label.

Not content with playing its part in the commercial corruption of music, each member of Northstar is dedicated to elevating the modern musical experience to a higher degree of artistry. Thoroughly schooled in the arts of performance, improvisation and composition: Northstar shines both in studio and on-stage.

What began as Conquest's personal work as an emcee, trumpet player and producer has been transformed into the live and expansive presentation of the Northstar collective with the help of fellow emcee Sir Real, female vocalist Elisa Gold, bassist Mike Reid, drummer Josh Lane, guitarist Adam Saifer, saxophonist John DeSimini and Adam Hoy on Trumpet/Keys. The Northstar collective has set-out to conquer the Toronto music scene and has intentions to infilitrate America as well in the near future.

Destiny
Northstar Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

[Intro: Christ Bearer]
I'm in the mood for love..
Simple because you're near me..
I need bud, won't you hear me..
I'm in the mood for love..
Here name was..

[Chorus 2X: Intrigue]

Destiny, Destiny, Destiny, Destiny, Destiny, Destiny, Destineeeeeeeey

[Christ Bearer]
Sheila Park was at 3 desks in front of me
Her skin was dark 'cause she was always makin' fun of me
Tryin' to bag when I speak of what I'm gonna be
That's kinda sad, 'cause a pick-up she's-a gonna be
want to be in my videos with ho's, 4's
The pose with pretty toes and clothes
She goes (Destiny.. Destiny.. Destiny)
I remember when the bitch wouldn't mess with me
Told the homies from the block I was a flea
Matter of fact that she used to hate see back in '93
Now I push up on the block
22's in the limp fuze in the Alpine's knocked like..
(Destiny.. Destiny..)
Now she's on my ballzac's desperately
She says all she wants for Christmas is a real G
Throwin' with the key that could set her mind free
A father full of mockin' breed
The 6 figure fee and the S.U.V
I'll holler later as I dipped off the gator
'cause she wanted me to date her when she used to be a hater

[Chorus w/ Christ Bearer singing]
Oh I love weed..
I love my sweet..

[Beretta 9]
Her name was Destiny, I met her at a show, right?
Fly as shit, didn't seem like the ho type
21, she grown and free for the whole night
She got a man, but he won't even know, right?
I give her then, but she say she don't get down like
"O.K., man, I heard that shit the other night"
"So that's yo' plan, met with me, that sounds right"
At 12 AM I'm no psycho but it sounds like
Probably the lobby and, defintely in the room
We won't be watchin' T.V., but I keep you in tune
And I ain't all that easy, must be her perfume
There sayin' that she needs me and I guess she assumes
that it'll be O.K. to teast me, ""O.K
Get right on to head, bitch, let's play"
A dry hump and attempt later, guess who in the mix major
Destiny, blessin' me..

[Chorus 2X w/ Christ Bearer singing]
Oh I love weed..
I love my sweet..

[Meko the Pharaoh]
High-healed shoes, toes like pearls (yeah)
Diamond baby chain that hangs down to her pearls
Her features real vivid when she walks right on the curl
Niggaz blow their horns, scream and yell "Hey girl"
Waitin' for the day when she would, pause her world
And give a brother a chance, or even a glance
to elevate the night for the perfect romance
But everyday I wake up I'm screamin' again
I stay focused and aimin', expanded the game
Hooked up with RZA and planted a flame
Now it ain't nuttin' to make a girl stop in her tracks
Actin' like she never knew the Stars way back
But I ain't even trippin', 'cause it, be's like that
Nobody can't see it, 'til ya, blow up the map
Nobody can't hear ya, 'til ya, blow up an act
And now she just smiles when I blow out her back

[Chorus]
[Christ Bearer]
Like.. niggaz want the secret recipe
They I-D-E-see-I-double E from the L.B. (Long Beach)
Get to trippin', sippin' on the Belvy
Waitin' for I kick a rhyme for L.T

[Chorus 4X w/ Christ Bearer singing]

Oh I love weed..
I love my sweet..

Overall Meaning

The song "Destiny" by Northstar feat. Kinetic is a nostalgic reflection on the journey of the artists' lives and their relationships with women. The introduction, with Christ Bearer crooning "I'm in the mood for love," establishes a romantic mood, which is quickly disrupted by Bearer's verse about his high school crush, Sheila Park, who used to ridicule him. He outlines how she is now drawn to him because of his success and material possessions, declaring "she's on my ballzac's desperately." The chorus repeatedly emphasizes the word "Destiny," suggesting that all of the events leading to this point in their lives were fated to happen. Beretta 9's verse continues this theme, detailing how he meets a woman named Destiny at a show, whom he seduces with some effort. Meko the Pharaoh's verse concludes the song by describing how he has worked his way up in the music industry alongside RZA, and now women throw themselves at him. The song ends on a note of confidence and satisfaction, with the artists having achieved success and adoration from women.

The lyrics of "Destiny" reflect the changing attitudes towards women as the artists' careers have progressed. Sheila Park is no longer someone to be ignored or bullied; she is now someone who is attracted to Bearer because of his money and status. Similarly, while Destiny is initially resistant to Beretta 9's advances, she eventually succumbs to his charm. Finally, Meko the Pharaoh describes how women now approach him, rather than the opposite. The repetitive chorus of "Destiny" suggests that the events of the artists' lives leading up to this point were preordained and that their current success and romantic conquests are part of their destiny.
