Did Da Ace copy the name, "You Know My Steez", from Gang Starr? all of the names of tracks on Da Ace's first two mixtapes are taken from real artists' track names.

yeah a Big Willie is someone who is a top dawg like Ted said. of course, if you're from the UK then Big Willie can be describing something else too :3-laugh3:

i have this album on my computer because i downloaded it some time ago but i have never listened to it. if its as dope as u say it is, i will have to listen to it sometime real soon.

put You Know My Steez from Da Ace's last mixtape, that track was dope

Happy Birthday Brakes!!

Zion I - What U Hear (feat. Del the Funky Homosapien) Tim, u ever listen to Zion I?

actually the beat was just average to me

not really feeling this

U must be banned at once!! i think he's talkin about the JJFP b-side not the group New Kids on the Block

wow im impressed. i knew he would be able to write but i didnt know if he would be able to flow since hes a poet but he is impressive. im really excited about all these new and upcoming artists that have skills like rhymefest, lupe fiasco, and now black ice. i hope this record will be available in my local shops, since this is his first album and its an underground release.

Black Ice - The Ugly Show

ok well i guess you wouldnt be able to put any samples on the new music podcast then :shrug:

Kel Spencer - The Pen The Sword Lupe Fiasco - Kick Push or No Place To Go or Steady Mobbin the new Tatyana song and im sure ash trey could recommend some Rhymefest stuff, i downloaded some of his new stuff but havent listened to it yet

Lupe Fiasco - Steady Mobbin / Ghetto Story (two different names for this track) wow.... everyone needs to check his album

oooh dead prez and gil scott heron? talk about revolutionary. i will be checkin this out... so tim u obviously got the advance copy if u already heard it? lol

cool, not my type of music but im not gonna hate. anyone got any new pics of Tatyana? :kekeke:

yo Kel, i got a small request. is there any way you can make The Pen The Sword available for us to download? if you could put it up on yousendit.com that would be great. this is your best song in my opinion and i'd really like to have it on my mp3 player and not have to deal with the instability of the myspace music player every time i wanna listen to it. keep doin ya thang!

i havent heard of this guy but he sounds dope. i liked Saul Williams' stuff when he rapped in Slam and he's a poet so i'll be checkin into this further for sure. and i gotta agree with AJ that as a poet you're trying to convey a clear message to the audience, and when u use a lot of cussing it makes that image blurry and sloppy in my opinion.

Black Star - Hater Players

i love urbandictionary. sometimes i spend 30 minutes on there finding definitions to slang words i never knew. its convenient how they always give you a list of other related words to check out, keeps you browsing for a long time.

its a touchy and controversial subject. i think in a way it's like listening to music talkin about violence and sex, etc. kids are only gonna do something if they have problems. i know i would never ever meet anyone who i didnt know from a chat room cuz thats just common sense to me. so in a way, i think any kids who get caught up in that stuff are being mislead by their parents for not getting them involved in enough activities to where they arent on the computer 8 hours a day looking for something to do. but u can't fault parents for being protective and showing concern because we've all heard the horror stories of chat rooms and myspace and all that. i just think if u use common sense and follow a few simple guidelines (ie not giving your address out to strangers) then u wont get hurt by the internet. i would personally be pissed off if my parents were watching my every move. so what if i search for "hot sexy girls"? is that not what guys think about? i think im entitled to my own privacy and choices. but like i said, parents are supposed to be concerned. it's really a double edged sword but in the end i think internet protection comes down to using common sense on the users part, which i guess some people lack.

not my favorite type of movie, but i have a soft emotional side for stuff like this and this really touched me in the right place and i think i will love this movie

happy birthday Julie! go wild! lol

then get an education and do something with your life and get a good career. i think thats part of the problem, cats think they're gonna make money by releasing records. BigTed posted an article a while ago from ahh.com about how little artists make since they get the cut of the money last. the only people that are making money from rapping are the artists on the radio, going platinum, on BET, with commercials and concerts to do. the real artists do it for the love of the game and know they arent gonna make big money off it but they also arent gonna let the record companies play with them like puppets.

haha funny AJ, too bad its never been used so thats not possible!
