No one wants to hear that much music in one sitting no matter HOW hot you are. What could a song over 100 bars be about that'd hold the interest of a generation of niggas with short attention spans? It's one of those things that was hot in like 2000 or so, but most people aren't interested in that type of shit anymore IMO.

Oh well.. Its something I wanted to do personally...
Just an interesting experement to test my limits....
Also, not many australian emcees have done this type of shit before... So I'm doing it to push other peoples limits too... If you understand me...

Aside from your attempt at shit talking..
I agree, I'm a little anxious about performing this live cause so many things could go wrong.... Theres so many flow and style switchups over each beat that it def aint gonna get monotonous... Its really sort of like 10 tracks back to back without pausing..
NNN said I should put some bridges in, I'm prolly gonna do that at some point before I record... I just got about 5 other tracks to work on aswell so I cant do everything at once..
On stage I get mass cats up with me and whoevers doing my dubs can keep the crowd pumpin while I'm up there rapping till my mouth bleeds...
If I do it that is... I'll have to be pretty confident and find the exact right audience... But overall its a good addition to my portfolio....
