Were those lyrics that really hard to decipher? Anywho, Hip-Hop took over my life at young age. I’d say 4 or 5. Or whenever the videos of Ain’t Nuthin But a G Thang and Scenario hit back to back on MTV. I was hooked. I listen to everything EXCEPT COUNTRY, but hip-hop is my bread and butter. New or old I’m hooked. My love for it is completely unquestioned by those that know me. I invest time in everything to HS and college sports and comics and random ish, but hiphop seems to always find a way to the forefront. It has reached a point where I’m obsessed. Of course its a way of life, but it really goes beyond such in my mind. The aesthetic reaches out, its just so real to sit in my room and vibe to shit. Just get lost in it. Its more than a knockin beat or ill punchlines. Its a feeling. There is no better feeling in life than ripping off the plastic of a freshly purchased cd. The HipHop is Dead “statement” Nas made was BS, but i was willing to hear him out until it was found to be publicity stunt that failed. Then it spawned a bunch of elitist dumbasses who would continuously say it was dead. If you really think that then leave hiphop alone. Now the record labels refuse to release anything that isn’t ringtone rap. You are hard pressed to see/hear on the radio/TV anything of value, maybe a handful of the same shit tho. It wasn’t too long ago that they would play any and everything, mix the good with the bad, but now it just seems all bad. That said I know what I want and thats good hiphop. So I’m gonna stay tuned and ride this bitch til the death. Keep it locked to 2dopeboyz, stuntinonprose, her, —>> hit the lainks. At least some people still have sense.

**i hope a couple years from now ppl will look at american gangster as a classic record. At face value, its incredible. and J Burn said it was mad dope upon first listen, but let bs change his mind. Just take it for what it is. DOPENESS!

Love, a dangerous necessity that people seek without regard
To where they are, the human heart is curious above all things,
laa the lights are low
your eyes are bright
the music, makes it sweet delight
It’s out inside, I’m feeling right
your dress is tight
Oh waaaa ow, I want you right now

Mos Def kicks some serious shit over a funny not really meaningful song Drunk and Hot Girls. Some places with lyrics have it listed as “Lot of” not “Love, a…” uuhhh MF are you stupid! but this is a very raw (and deep [II]) statement to be in the middle of a song bout drunk hoes. I hope more people appreciate this.

***I hope he does this at RTB…or at least travelin man (he sang the chorus A Capella last year)

so I was gonna post this, but Von Pea beat me to it! I want my linear notes. apparently they are available thru iTunes. I i dont fuck with iTunes as i buy hard copies. Send em my way if you have em. AND EEFFFF Def Jam for not allowing ?uesto to do it on the cd book (although I’m not sure of the facts to the statement, its just safe to ASSume)

The Lox used to be the SHIT. D-Block is meh, but The Lox was mad ill. From there shiny suits to their songs on the Ruff Ryder compliations (after v2 the series was all down hill). Go Head from RR v2 was a life changer. The ominous beat and grimy lyrics, man!! It just takes me to another place. Jadakiss solo joints are just ok. Outside of A Gangsta and a Gentleman, Styles joints are hit or miss. I mean good but not fuckin with his first joint. Sheek’s first solo effort was cool, highly under-rated but not a 5 mic-er(when they meant something). Silverback Gorilla is decent nothing special. So from money, power, respect to D-Block it’s The Lox. BITCHES!!

so ive just seen several vids of GITD and now im convinced Ye was really crying at our show, becuz he was fine during others.

So at the end of Mary’s set she played the opening to Flashing Lights!! Kanye’s Stadium Status is correct. That shit hit hard!!! Now I’m even more geeked for Glow in the Dark on Tuesday!!
