    Here's the verse I.

    June 22, 2004 (11:42 p.m. - 12:08 a.m.)

    In 1985, they said "Letz create a drug that destroys their race
    Call it crack and send it all over the place
    It dysfunctions the brain, rips apart the family name
    And limits the chances 4 changes 2 gain
    It got in our homes, and destroys the way we livin
    Took our parents love from us, and we did nothin but give in
    I was unaware, scared, but God was there
    Helped me get thru it when my survival was rare
    In the courts, the Fuquas the plaintiff, there was no defendant
    A lost soul wit no mother, but that just ended
    I look at the world now, and can't believe the ignorance
    How did they find it in their hearts 2 make a difference
    Ain't no sympathy but can U picture the imagery
    I've been told the story and now it'z part of my memory
    Those peoples lives I'm part of, think if I wasn't there 4 ya
    These R the dangers when your Made In America

  4. Will's Comeback

    As long as he comes out, I'll be happy. He said it'z old school, which may be a good, but at the same time bad thing. As far as him adjusting his style 2 those out now. HA! Gangsta was in. Code Red?!? I really hope he finds the right home 4 the album.

    This was written 4 the obvious reason. All the problems in this country. But this verse only covers one 4 the most part. Peep it.

    Written: June 23, 2004 (12:17 - 12:53 a.m.)

    Being poor is no joke, when ya traveling roads
    Tryna survive by love being all that U load
    Hungry and ya stomach growling terribly
    And ya thinkin "is there even one decent person who can be there 4 me?"
    The richys say "It ain't my problem, I'm livin it up"
    U got 2 much money 4 U, but U ain't given it up
    I'm sure U worked hard 4 the money and U deserve it
    but would it kill U 2 help out a few times in the world and turn it
    around, much like the axis does everyday
    Ya actionz determine more than what U say
    Sometimes, it'z like why bother cuz it'z hopeless
    Look bakc at my wordz thinkin I never should've wrote this
    Sometimes I wanna help, change the way we live
    Sometimes except the fact, that it's just the way it is
    And it'z up 2 whoever 2 change their surroundings of their area
    Learn what U gotta do when your Made In America
    ____

    So any questions or comments?

  10. WHY?????????

    Yes he did. He did it at Ashley's party, 4 Geoffrey when he'd got out wit Helen (Tyra Banks)-man she's Fine!, when Jazz played the drums, numerous times.

    Jeff showed his when he'd scratch up Mr.Banks record player during "Tea Time".

    'Sorry Phil, no oboes coming next' ha ha!

    [quote=lambertj3,Jun 17 2004, 07:20 AM]I found this on pop dirt .com what do you guys think of this article?[/quote]
    I think it'z exactly where it came from. Poop dirt. Oh, I'm sorry, pop dirt. I read it wrong.

    U know, this makes me question my own intentions of becoming a famous music artist. This world is so so not right. The quality of Will's music is great. Both 4 what it was, and what it is. (especially when u listen 2 an old album again) There R all kinds of music, and different ways 2 present it. But people choose "This" or "That" kind because it'z most appealing to people, or seems so. Now we seem to have 2 much of the same thing. Nobody's use to being different. I guess money does rule the world. It's either an extreme maker or breaker. More than likely, it'z a breaker because of those around someone. The way the world is, is such a fueling topic. We question 2 much. We don't LIVE enuff. Music really does suck.

    What was I talking about?!?!?!???? ^^

    I'm Trippin.

  16. Tupac Ressurrection DVD

    in Caught in the Middle

    Posted

    Hey guys. I purchased Tupac Ressurection 2 days ago. This DVD is absolutrely magnificent. It makes even more powerful because 2pac is talking. THey used different segments from interviews, but to be honest, U really shouldn't bother 2 try 2 depect a difference. I knew a lot, but felt like I was learning about 2pac all over again. It's better than I thought it would be.

    The extras R great also. The delete scenes R nothin hype, but interesting. There's his 1st interview wit MTV (that never aired because of his legal problems). It was done in '92. He was going 2 be featured on a Christmas album, but he was cut. People talk about him in different aspects. Like when he died. There's him at a MAlcolm X Dinner Speech. It's one of my favorites. 2pac would've been a success at anything. there's a extra concerning his trial wit the shooting of an officier by teens. There's the 96 interview wit MTV at the awards.

    And I thought Thug Angel was good. This is by far the best DVD of Tupac I've seen.

    If U only choose 2 buy one Tupac DVD, this is it.

  20. Outside The Lines

    in Caught in the Middle

    Posted

    This morning I was watchin ESPN Outside The Lines. It was about how basketball is dominanted by blacks. They made references to hip hop also. One guy said that the perception of the game has changed. Guys will pose, scream, point to the camera. Just like hip hop is dominanted by blacks, so is basketball. There R all kinds of activities that R dominanted by one race.

    There was this high school kid from Staton Island, who wants to beat the odds. He said a lot of his friends take up other sports because they feel there's no hope in basketball. That recruiters won't look at them. Their coach said its the work ethic. They get distracted more easily and don't put in the time. The kid, who's name I 4get, puts in 5-6 hrs almost everyday in the gym. He applies to the term "Gym Rat".

    They looked at the NBA back then, when Bird and Stockton was around; and the NBA now. SHoe endorsements happened once BIrd's career was winding down. So he never got the opportunity. Jordan opened the doors for that. Bird said he got offended when he would be guarded by a white guy. He was in a way making a joke.

    There's this one kid from CA, who's a center from high school, and is gonna enter the pros. They also said that only 13% of the NBA is White American. Actually I think WHite in general. A lot of the white guys, R from other countries.

    I'm not to sure what 2 make of this topic myself. There R people that said there's always gonna be change. But does changes include some bein bad? I don't think they should. I thought this would be a really good topic 2 discuss wit y'all.

    [quote=Da Brakes,Jun 12 2004, 05:00 AM]I think somebody else on this board has told me I remind them a bit of E-$0!! Thats strange coz i don't think i've heard an E-40 track in my life!!

    I recorded it thru headphones! If i would have done it thru speakers, i wouldn't be able to get a clera recording of my voice (eg if i wanted to prduce an acapella, then i'd still be able to hear the music in the background) The best way is to definately use headphones.

    And Cool Edit Pro works on Windows 98!! Its the operating system that i'm using at the moment!!! I have to admit tho i did download my version!! :ohnoes:[/quote]
    Where'd U download it from? I don't know why it doesn't work. It's just what I need too.
