--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This Isnt A Personal Attack On Anyone
But What I Keep Seeing Is Cats Cant Work Together On Here. There
Are Too Many Egos Who Really Feel That Sc Fame And Popularity Means
They Hot Shit. Truth Is The Sc Popularity Is Invisable To The Real
World. The Majority Of The Artists On Here Have No Fanbase Outside
Their Own Neighborhood, If They Even Have That. I Say This Because
Instead Of Bickering About Who's Best Or Who Did What, Yall Should
Drop The Ego Trips And Actually Network With Each Other Forming
Relationships That Will Benefit More Than Your Own Ego. Step
Outside The Box Called Soundclick And Act Like Businessmen And
Business Partners. Cross Promote, Form Aliances, Build Together
Instead Of Trying To Always Tear Each Other Down. Help Those Who
Need It Instead Of Ridiculing Em. Be Able To Take Criticism Without
Taking Offense. Remember That Everyone Is A Prospective Fan,
Supporter, Or Business Partner So Be Respectfull And Act
Responsibly. My 2 Cents. 1... HOFFA!!! (even tho the beef is
entertainin at times)

Here's the deal with net ego's. For example, people have told fempire that he is good their for he gains an ego and then more and more people tell him, most of them are d/r's their for his head gets bigger. Now that he's in a.i. he has them to build his net ego even bigger. I have a net ego from time to time but mine only comes out when niggaz wanna get giddy and talk shit. For example fempire says that he owned me when he got me dq'd for having to many battles open, he actually reported me to strobe, he's talking shit now but yet he just ducked a battle challenge yesterday, i am still waiting for fempire to accept but net ego's almost go hand and hand with respect, not all the time it just deals with the situation

I'm not concerned about a fan base because I rap to relieve stress and to express my thoughts; it's a hobby.




If anything, I'd want to produce more than rap in "real life".

werd... i'm more into finding talent and promotional shyt... i still wouldn't mind dropping some shyt every now and then but there is much more shyt involved in hip-hop than just spitting... networking is an important part of hip-hop.... ego's can mess up everything that you worked so hard for...and quicker than it took for you to build it up

I actually try to entertain people.....I'm not gonna lie, what people say about my music affects the way I perform the next time. I am constantly taking constructive criticism with a grain of salt and trying to apply it the next time I spit. I may not want to have a record deal or whatever, but I do spit for entertainment :thumbup:

But you better believe that if I was approached about a deal, I wouldn't turn it down ;)

tru...though I may resist, I always ponder and review what people say to me to possibly incorporate some of their suggestions...I've learned the difference between hate and constructive crit...



some niggas jus don't know how to speak to people...so I won't hold that against them...but when niggas i won't mention come in your thread and go "ur gay"...that ain't helpin my vocal quality...so those I ignore...
