  1. this is cool as hell. but like you said too bad there isnt krs one and other living legends. not to mention some of the underground greatest. but what can you expect.

    some match ups were very hard for me.

    lupe vs mos

    common vs black thought

    andre 3000 vs method man

    ice cube vs the game was kinda on the tuff side

    ----

    my final 4 was lupe nas, ludacris ( i dislike luda, but he was best out of that whole bracket IMO), and common

    i didnt read on how it will be decided but my final 2 was lupe and nas

    cant decide a winner

    i feel like depending on what your frame of mind is you can get many different results with this.

    like if i wanted to fill it out choosing the rappers that are most original i would get a differnt outcome. or if i picked the most consistant... or the one with me most soul.

    so i mean this fill out was my first run through and it was pretty much who i thought deserved it... and it was hard, very hard.

    i think im going to print out a bunch of copies and make my friends fill it out. and we could do it wit hthe differnt motives too, like i siad before

  2. www.myspace.com/michaelpetrow

    1) my newest song is "close your eyes", it samples two tony bennet songs and the movie dead poets society. guitar by my bud dan and the rest by me. hope you enjoy it.

    2) the new album Organized Mess is going to be my best cd yet!

    it includes:

    taking time (vin diesel extended version)

    fools gold (without me singing)

    moment of truth

    the race

    good news is coming (feat dan zavaro)

    lets get lost

    counterclockwise (maybe)

    story of a free spirit

    and this new one close your eyes.

    i hope to have 14 songs. all good enough to be on it. this time around im not just making a song and putting it on automatically, i will have b-sides. not to say that i am releasing them. but i want to be picky about what i put on. i already have 2 songs that i liked alot and now are on my b-sides.

    --i took the album pictures so i will have to decide on that and then i will have the cover up. i want to have a majority of the final songs before i have the covers though.

    3) On another note, i sent out 9 packages to 9 labels. each with 3 discs. and a letter

    Disc 1 - Moment of truth, the race, two sides to every story, the race, story of a free spirit, taking time, counter clockwise, fools gold, an intro by me and a part of me.

    Disc 2- good news is coming (it wasnt finished in time to be on the first disc)

    Disc 3- DVD of variety show performance (same thing as youtube but without the glitch near the end)

    the labels i sent to are these:

    - Definitive Jux

    - Sony

    - Interscope

    - Epitaph

    - Rapster

    - Warner Bros.

    - Virgin

    - Atlantic

    Looking back i think that these labels are too big. I should really have sent to some smaller ones. I hope to at least get a rejection letter from one. That way i can have it as a souvieneir. Worst case scenario, they dont respond and that it most likely whats going to happen.

    --------

    so thats the 3 things. alot to respond to. wish me luck with my stuff!

  3. Who cares? Why are this so called legends dissing a 17 year old kid? Because he is selling records and they don't? What people expect should he portray some fake gangsta **** like them??? Mostly southern and westcoast music is mindless and catchy music without message! Back in the day you had Kriss Kross and Vanilla Ice, now you have Soulja Boy and 50 cent.

    so you are against method man, snoop, ice-t and in support of souja boy, flo rida, jim jones and people like that?

  4. i sent the link to 2 people before even reaching the bottom of this thread! im likign this

    EDIT: i was checking out other tracks from nas and ''hero'' is soo good. the beat is crazy too. it has sort of a mystical feel surrounded in hip hop goodness, kinda of sounds like a sample that DJ shadow would use... just the beginning sample. and nas rips it!

  5. i dont know if they are referencing the show or him as an artist.. so picking a thread to put this in was difficult. i decided to pick this one an account that the song that FP is referenced is called "heart songs" and its about songs that are meaningfull to him. so heres the lyric.

    Michael Jacksons

    In the mirror

    I've gotta have faith

    If I wanna see clear

    Or wishing well

    It takes two to make

    A thing go right

    If the [b]Fresh Prince

    Starts a fight

    Don't you worry

    For too long

    'Cause you know

    These are the songs

    so thats it.... show or song? and top of that what episode/song?

  7. "if you really love me i will come back" - nas

    from hip hops voice

    i feel like there is going to be an age of bad rap, maybe another 5 years or some extended period of time... and then we will have a golden age when people cant take it any more
