brings it raw

very intelligent rhymes

is not black like I thought he was!

Are there two people in IT or just one?

I def. agree that IT is off the hook.

Pretty sure he is just one person.
And yeh hes fuckin awesome! I have Revolutionary Vol 1 and 2.I heard about him from someone at my Uni when we were discussing underground hiphop type stuff in a class.
His stuff is really interesting, huge breadth of topics he covers and to my ear he sounds good too.

Saw him live at bb king, was pretty good. The Prophecy is probably my fav song.

Dancing with the Devil is... sad. I could've cried that was so sad... And it was utterly sickening at the same time...

All of this guy's music is really, really good.

yeah I can't imagine anything more intellectually stimulating.

At one point he says its not a conspiracy, 'its real, and its on the one dollar bill under the masonic seal'. Am i the only one who thinks thats a contradiction?

Yeah, osama bin laden didn't blow up the twin towers. right.

Yeah i watched 'dancing with the devil' -http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=179mQaGnRnE

what a cocksucker.

He may be cocky, but he's smart and does not rap about cars b!tchs and patron.

james_dean · Post by **james_dean** » 01 Oct 2007 05:46

yeah, instead he raps about raping bitches and killing them. so glad he dosn't rap about cars. real fucking inspiring. dance with the devil is absolutely disgusting, it wasn't sad, it was just fucking disgusting.

He goes into a rant about how bad this rape was... then goes on to say that he raped the rapists' mother

Can you please help us find a better perspective?

But Aesop Rock, The Roots (?uest love is amazing) and Atmosphere are the shit as far as hip hop/rap goes.

In my opinion, almost everything is shit as far as hip hop/rap goes.

james_dean · Post by **james_dean** » 02 Oct 2007 02:27

well if you want to listen to it go ahead, but I don't wanna hear that shit. can't say I'm surprised which two flamed me

You must have a hearing problem. He didn't "go on" to rape the rapist's mother. He WAS one of the rapists who ALSO raped the kid's mother. And in the song he tells a lot of things including some advice, but he also tells that he has endless sorrow for his actions and is disgusted by his and his "crew's" actions. You need to listen better.

And to no surprise, Jame's can't read. Because the only one that "flamed" him was me. And it wasn't a flame, I simply gave you advice, and gave you a rather appropriate name for your stupid reactions to this thread.

At least listen to some of the best a genre has to offer (IMO The Roots are among those in hip hop, The Roots fuse hiphop with jazz)

A lot of music would not be the same with out rap/hip-hop and rap/hip-hop would not exist if it were not for Rock and Roll.

Don't call an entire genre trash from listening to a few artist. Learn to listen and appreciate music and not just throw out an entire genre as "shit" just because you didn't like the shit you hear on the radio or in this thread.

This coming from you?

I used 'flame' in a very broad sense there, obviously you weren't abusing me.

And FYI I understood the song completely, I just thought it was gross shit to listen to.

Oh and although he worded it badly, I'm pretty sure you and oli are saying the same thing. You need to read better.

Sorry for derailing topic, leaviiiiiiing... now.

Switch Kicker · Post by **Switch Kicker** » 03 Oct 2007 05:29

Where the fuck do you see "oli" flamming you? He and I didn't say the same thing, idiot. We disagreed for fuck's sake. You really can't read. Oliver was agreeing with your wrong opinion. This is hardly worth my time.

james_dean · Post by **james_dean** » 03 Oct 2007 05:49

oh damn, I really can't read, touche

I just couldn't avoid the "you need to read better" comment after your "you need to listen better" comment... my bad.
