It's tough to say where he should go. He calls himself "post-punk laptop rap"

He raps, he was in a punk band, he's more than socially aware. Exposure for the man is more than needed. Heres why I think so (song suggestions):

iGeneration - is a clever collage of the pop fetishes of the ought's. "And people tried to put us down, when iTunes bumped a post-Cold War sound.
My generation sat the mecca of malls, Times Square, I'm there, Viacom installs.
So we hit the net while the Trade Center fell, New York met Hollywood, we ran like hell."


Signing Emo - A great emo sample fills the chorus, and the rest of the song uses emo plus-ins to illustrate why movements occur."The label pres. calls and yells, "Sign more emo!"
How about screamo? "If it sells, sign Nemo,"
"We're down 2%, and BMG knows,
My Daughter likes Dashboard, so get me one of those!"
"

Hot Topic is not punk rock - All you need to know are the following lyrics:"Hot Topic is a contrived identification with youth subcultures to manufacture an anti-authoritarian identity and make millions. The $8 you paid for the Mudvayne poster would be better spent used to see your brother’s friend’s band.

DIY ethics are punk rock
Starting your own label is punk rock
G.G. Allin was punk rock.

But when a crass corporate vulture feeds on mass-consumer culture, this spending mommy’s money is not punk rock!
