We’re not saying that he’s the savior but he’s been working on the humble for years and Exhibit C opened him up to the world. World, meet Jay Electronica…support his victory for Hip-Hop.” – DJ DUB

What is the FLY X made of?

Growing up MC Lyte was my first and only idol, i developed my "laid back swag" from this lady. I was already a tomboy even though i kept myself fresh and looking like a lady with my jeans saggin complimented with my fly kicks...I would like to think of myself as SILENT BUT DEADLY with a great sense of humor lol anywho...when i seen this video right here i was in aww! I went out and bought the single - wrote all the lyrics down - and recited it over and over again. Im not saying that she made me who i am just that i saw myself in her through her music. I did talent shows doing this joint lol and even TRIED to become an emcee but im a lyrical cluts so i stuck to dancing and supporting hip hop...true hip hop...(to be continued)

Chain, Chain, Chain...Chain a Fool

Don’t work to hard to give yourself the best of everything, instead make a greater effort to give GOD the best of yourself…add a star if you believe *******

Stop it with the damn chain texts already folks!!! I don't think adding a star will give me any pendants in heaven, and if I HAVE to send some friend shit back to you to prove I am sincere in our friendship then just go head and delete me - make an appointment with a shrink - build a bridge and GET OVER IT! We can end this nuisance if we delete one fwd at a time...break the chain already damn...that will be all.

Willie Mitchell Invented Liquid Swords

Willie Mitchell

1928 - 2010

Willie Mitchell. The passing of another great. Without Willie Mitchell there is no RZA,Just Blaze, Heatmakers or Kanye.

Mr. Mitchell was the noted producer of Al Green, Syl Johnson and Ann Peebles.

If you love Hip-Hop (or any soul based music), stand up for a pioneer. Salute.
