i thought that the lyricist lounge show was the wackest thing i've ever
seen. it was even horrible by mtv standards. and if you didn't figure it
out, there wasn't any freestyling on the show. all scripted. if you've
ever seen mos def live, you know he can't freestyle worth a shit.
i don't understand why mtv just can't bring back yo! mtv raps. well, i
guess it's because they don't show videos anymore, but besides that. . .
