About Me

Welcome to the myspace site ( official website coming soon ) of a God-ordained, God-breathed emcee, who is just as comfortable in a white tee and rocking a fitted backwards, or in a church building sittin' and chillin', chit-chattin' with Pastors. There's no reason for an emcee to emcee, if he ain't creative with it. If there's no creativity, it ain't existent. It's a forced facsimile of Hip Hop. Many will, I repeat WILL refer to me and mine ( Rahm Nation, Ali Stone,etc. ) as haters, because we believe in artistry over hustlin'. If I'm creative, and I'm an artist, there's a sense of urgency, which could be referred to as hustle. I wouldn't say things that you hear so many guys ( can't call 'em rappers or Hip Hoppers ) say, " I'm not the hottest cat out, but they can't duplicate my hustle." That's not Hip Hop, or even music. Sorry, ....... guys. You unsure of what Hip Hop is? Listen.

Nas vs. Rakim - ( please be as longwinded as possible, i love to read )

everyone knows Nas idolizes Rakim and some others, but what makes them distinct from each other? Both speak on what goes on in the world today, they both are lyrical titans. How can you differentiate?...
