Okay, I just fucked royally in the ass at my "9 to 5". Listen people, being a government employee is not its cracked up to be, dig? Yo,,,my benfits are going up and my pay is going no where. I was just turned down for a promotion because some asswad got it, even though I put myself in school to get the proper certifications for that position! So now I have no where to go. I have a criminal record (which I can only blame myself) so another job in this post 9-11 time is not an option. So what else can I do? Well, I'm pretty much done hustlin. I can't have my fam put in that position anymore wit all the snicthes these days,,,so my only option left is music. So I say, fuck it! As an emcee, shit will be the same and I'm just angrier now.


,,,on the producer end,,,I'm am going to attack! Before I would only want artists on my beats. I figure I made somethin from the soul so I want someone who expresses their souls on my music,,,NOT ANYMORE. I don't care if you suck, can't flow, if ya a reggaeton dude, a wanna-be tough guy with mysopace pictures of you holdin a gun to the camera,,,,I DON"T CARE,,,,fuck society, fuck the industry, and fuck the underground! I bust my ass when I'm at my job, yet some dude gets fired for not takin a random piss test and gets rehired three years later with retro because of a "loophole" in our rulebook! Another cat has been fired numerous times(who i personally know) is a heroin junkie! He's been out of work for a few months and now I hear is getting his job back. YET, I'm workin my ass off to save the tax payers money and I can't get a measly promotion......FUCK!



So, rappers, singers, whoever,,,,You know you suck, I know you suck, but I don't care anymore,,,ya want music,,,SHOW ME THE FUCKIN MONEY!

I don't see this as Selling Out at all. As a beatmaker/producer, your job is to make a support for the artist no matter what. Wheter he's good or not, you getting the same amount of money.

Selling out to me, is doing some snap music or some bullshit like this.

You do what you gotta do, but if you get to the point where you makin' serious cheese use your position as a vehicle to later introduce some shit that's really you, some shit that's gonna help push this Hip Hop music forward.

Ay, the obstacles don't stop comin' just cause we got a 9 to 5. It's a hard knock life for us.

thats not selling out. as a beatmaker you sell beats for money. if they suck its noot on you. hot beats sell records anyway. i bet most people dont listen to the lyrics before they buy a record. they hear the beat.

i hear they take care of yall in NC
Well then you heard wrong...Quick story that sums it up....
Went to get an eye exam to get new glasses couple years ago,
Afterwards they inform me that my "Vision "Insurance doesnt cover exams(wait theres more).
So I tell the secretary, "Damn state employees get no respect"
She says"Oh are you a teacher?" I said,"No I work for the courts" she said"oh..." rather dismissively and was like "That'll be $100"... LOL
Not only that we didnt get a raise for 10! count them 10years!
They had a hiring freeze for thew past 8 years and have cut our budget every year of that 8....
All the while the city hires more cops to increase the workload....
10 years ago they took care of us not now...
The insurance sux, dont even try and put your family on it or youll be broke. No HMO's for the past 8 years.
SO I feel your pain...Yet everyday I roll the dice syin, this music is gonna pan out somehow....
Kids stay in school....lol
