    >decided to get paid.
        hell, i was exactly thinking the same thing, until i 've heard the Wildstyle stuff. not only the guy don't do his own lyrics by himself, which is quite funny for a rapper, but also all the sounds aren't that new, cause already existing in its near-exactly same version on Wildstyle.
       Jay z and this big crew of suckers/vampires don't deserve their success. the guys had potentiel, but they just drop it to bring instant cash instead of hip hop respect. hip hop people are the best to know how you must always remember what you've said, which values you bring, aren't they? Nas is the perfect example, for me, of a guy who was like "underground, underground, respect, for my people, hip hop,..." and as soon as he meet some bucks, he forgot everything that he was. i mean, look at him into these funny R.kelly videos. i'm rolling on the fllor each times i see him ; it's better than be sad thinking about how much it was good to listen "memory lane" from his best lp... call me nostalgic, i will tell you that 6 years ago is not old enough for callin it nostalgic, deception is a better word.

    >yhanx for the wildstyle tip.
       you welcome.
    peace & respect, listeeeeeeeeeeeeeeers.
