[JJFP Solo Freestyle Battle - ALL TIME RANKINGS]

I think this is a good idea. I'd like to get this place buzzing more like the old days. I don't want half the contestants to move on by default!

[POLL: Hero1 vs Big Ted - Who Won?]

I think Tim took this one too. Ted's verse wasn't bad, but I don't think it matched Tim's in terms of punchlines and overall aggressiveness.

BTW, Brakes- Concerning the 2-day time limit: If Schnazz decides to post a verse at the very last second, do I have two days from that moment to post my verse?

[REGULAR BATTLE SIGNUP]

I'm in... I'm disappointed the audio battle didn't get no love though.

[BACK TO BACK ID4 SEQUELS - WILL SMITH LOCKED?]

I'm a little worried about MIB3 too. It sounds like it's a filmmaker's nightmare.

[Jimmy Fallon & Justin Timberlake - History of Rap 3]

These are great.

[Can Modern Hip-Hop Be Traced To 6 MCs?]

I saw this a few days ago. It's pretty stupid.

[new podcast 23rd October - join us]

So yeah... about that....

[It's good to be a Smith kid]

Hey, a cookie....

OT, I often tell people that I wish I was Will Smith's kid...

[The Shady 2.0 Cypher and Heavy D Performance]

Heavy D's performance was dope. That was a really good cypher too though.

[DMX Cleans Up Image And Is Working On New Album]

"[There's] a lot of whack rappers out there. It's too corny."

He's right here. I hope he comes out swinging with this next album.

[new podcast 23rd October - join us]

I'll try to get on this one.

[American Pie 4 - American Reunion (First Trailer out now)]

I lol'd when he threw the sock on his kid.

[JJFP ARE BACK!]

Finally! Dope news!

[AUDIO BATTLE SIGNUP!]

BOOM! I'm in! I will show no mercy! I don't wanna hear no Lil' Wayne-style nonsense neither!

[messin around with music]

Nice job, Tim! You should have participated in the audio battles back in the day. Did you make the beats too? I really like the "Art of You" beat.

[XXL's Tribute To Big Pun]

Big Pun was extremely talented. He was a terrible husband, but a fantastic rapper.

[50 Takes Aim At Lil' Wayne and Game On "Love, Hate, Love" Track]

I would love for Will to go all out on a wack rapper like Wayne. He won't though. He balances his image too much for that to happen. I think it's the same reason he didn't do Django (which I'm not happy about).

[50 Takes Aim At Lil' Wayne and Game On "Love, Hate, Love" Track]

Yeah, I'll give him that. This is one of his better joints, IMO.

[50 Takes Aim At Lil' Wayne and Game On "Love, Hate, Love" Track]

An interesting beef would involve someone that could really rip Wayne apart, lyrically. There's a ton that could (and should), but they all jumped on the popularity bandwagon.

[Fat Joe To Release First Mixtape Of Career]

LOL, I was NOT calling K-Smith a gangsta rapper, Turn. I was talking about Will hooking him up with 50 Cent.

Anyway, I'm over this conversation too. We like who we like, I guess...

[Fat Joe To Release First Mixtape Of Career]

Man, you guys always come back with a wall of text. I gotta go to work. I'll try to reply when I get back. I feel like my last post went through both ears though so I don't know how much effort I'm gonna put into it. I'll just re-iterate "pick your poison."

[The N Word Debate: What's It's Future?]

Like I said in my first post. I'm not for censorship. I do believe the word would be used less if people understood its impact. My main point is that it will never become a word to empower if it is also seen as a word to degrade by the very people who use it.

[The N Word Debate: What's It's Future?]

I agree with that.

Another thing I wanted to mention was that a word cannot be used to empower one group of people if it seen as a bad thing when used by another race. All you're doing at that point is limiting yourself by placing yourself in the negative category that you associate that word with when it is used by someone else.

[Fat Joe To Release First Mixtape Of Career]

Yeah, they are. I actually thought of them while I was writing that. A while back they admitted that their verses aren't a reflection of their real lives.

[Fat Joe To Release First Mixtape Of Career]

fat joe doesn't praise cocaine use, to say that is just as ignorant as when politicians criticise rap without even listening to the song, they pick apart one line and make it look like it's all negative when you could pick apart scenes from an arnold schreigner film, it's all art, it's a concept behind it

lol, really Ted? I didn't say "cocaine use," btw. I said he praises cocaine as a way for drug dealers to thrive. If you think I'm picking him apart like a politician. Please listen to That White and tell me where I'm wrong on this one. He's ALWAYS talking about crack, btw. Which is another turn off for me.

If you want to get into an argument about whether or not everyone has their own hypocrisies, then sure, you win. Everyone sucks. But it comes down to asking just how full of it are they? Then you pick your poison. I don't care who it is, if I like someone and they say or do something contradictory to something they once stood for, I will be happy to call them out. Like when Will backed 50 Cent for K-Smith. It was completely against Will's stance on gangsta rap.

I don't hate FJ with a passion or anything but he's made enough choices I can't back for me to leave him out of my list of rappers to give a damn about.
