I forgot I made this thread, looks like it ran away on me.

I heard the same thing, that he does lot of spoken word. I use to be a big fan of his until he wrote that 911 truther song about Bush and the twin towers. Then I was like... this guy is whacked! lol.

The underground scene is so volatile, I'd fear for my future when I can't do it anymore. You never see rappers performing in their 60s like you do some of these rockstars.

I am more concerned about underground artists who would be trying to blaze the same trail as JMT and Technique. I'm worried that with all the free downloading they will never get off the ground, and all we'll be left with is the Kayne West's & the Lil Wayne's.
