the point of the show was for the artists to sing along to other peoples shit and rope in the audience. you think the audience is gonna be able to distinguish the ill emcees from the wack ones? no. are the emcees gonna be albe to express themselves to the fullest? not unless they think like will smith.

on top of that, hasn't p.diddy got a habit of screwing people out of money? how many SERIOUS emcees do you think are gonna enter that competition?

and finesse, if you really are a big-shot producer, how come you gotta advertise your shit in your sig? you must have a lot of time on your hands to amass 300+ posts in a matter of a few months.
