SMH. I remember when it was uncool to like Ferg on gaf and Rocky was the "One".

Well yea, then one of them put out mostly mediocre debut album and the other put one out that fucking knocks.

To be fair though, from jump I've always stated I only liked the first half a dozen tracks on LiveLove. I'll listen up to Purple Swag, skip down to Leaf then im done with the tape. Clams made Rocky for me + Brand New Guy.

same here. clams made him so interesting, but he abandoned most of that and his best tracks usually sound clam like.

I'm just bragging Because I saw this coming ever since Work" and Asap Mob Tape I knew he had next. Rocky did help his sound tho.

Same way I feel about my ava.

(surprise surprise). That space jump scene.... whewwww. I still think Into Darkness is the best looking movie (didnt see the most recent hobbit). Saw that shit in IMAX 3D and i left feeling fucked up in the head.
 
You know those days where you wish you had a fucking gun to off yourself so you wouldn't have to bother anybody else with your existence

Yea one of those days

What I noticed about (my) life is that it just keeps getting worse and worse. No light at the end of the tunnel. Anything good that happens has to be balanced by something bad. Last good day I had, ended with me finding out my dad has cancer. The only reason I keep myself on this planet is because I wouldn't want my mom to be sad without me. If anything ever happens to her I'm 100% gone from this planet.

Yeah normally I think toku tv recs are on point but this show is just boring as fuck to me. Moved on to rewatch of xfiles instead

Man I fucking said, Fringe doesn't hit it's stride 'til late season 2 when we get episodes like Tulip, Peter and Northwest Passage.

Basically when they learned that they couldn't do compelling Monster of the week shit but were good at powerfucl character driven scifi.

I always say this when I "reccomend" Fringe.

Nothing to say that you haven't heard before, but it actually can get better man.

I just can't buy Pacey as a roguish badass, especially when he just whines about his daddy issues every 5 fucking minutes. Fuck you Pacey.

I'm sorry to hear that man. Bad things are happening to the people you love, it sucks. But you gotta remember that what those people want more than anything is to see you grow and become the person your potential says you can be. You already have the right mindset, just gotta keep going for their sake and yours.

Fringe had a very slow start. It picks up a lot towards the end of season 1. Walter is probably one of my favorite tv show characters now.

I know what you said. I just can't drudge through season 1 to take your word for it.

I might just skip to season 2 and see what's up

Ogmios vs. Real Deal is a good battle that came out recently. Ogmios is like a poet and shit, and this is one of Real Deal's better showings. I think I give to Ogmios 2-1 (first and last). His last round when he
flips gun bars, lmfao

Cmon brah, you need more than that. You need a distinctive sound, the ability to write the right kind of songs, a certain voice, and a look. Loaded Lux looks like an xbox 360 Redguard preset in Oblivion character creator.

edit: now that ive watched more battle rap, think Calicoe vs. Lux is not really that great. It's a bodybag, but it doesn't really have that full unadulterated sonning feel until round 3. Round 2 is mostly just calicoe starting to come really wack and Lux building up steam... But it's with some pretty standard bars.
Nah Lux blacked out. 2nd round is my favourite, it builds up though, I don't like the guard dog and job core lines near the beginning. It's Lux talking that shit why he's unfuckwittable and a myth, and he knit all three personal rounds together like no one else. What he's saying is always relevant and the way it was constructed and delivered was pretty creative when there wasn't crazy wordplay all throughout. Lux isn't a scheme rapper, normally not a personal rapper either but every line cut deep.

The whole meek/peak/optical reach/optimum leap
Definite/Death in it
Bio has it/Biohazard
Evil to live backwards
Lock X-Factor in a room to watch the match with Clips
Battle on the roof, the loser had to jump
Been killing since they paid shillings, these dealings I have a license in
"If you find any skeletons in my closet n***a,
Well I should tell you how long I had bodies in it" (probably my favourite line ever)

Goodz walking around with that Hennessey bottle is an image gimmick. And it's certainly better than all these dudes putting the same tired ass slogan bars in every battle.
Slogans are so inoffensive and only really add personality to battles, I don't know how they take away from anything, hell Goodz brings lines back too. Goodz getting twisted in battles may help his image but it's a problem still if Mr. Professional kept drinking and drinking while Hollow was killing him to the point where he chucked his bottle into the crowd out of frustration.

Keep your head up man, things always get better man. You cant succumb to this mentality or else you will make yourself make it so rather than cherish what you can in life.

All good, I think they didn't do his character introduction properly. He's supposed to be less roguish badass and more lost intellectual.

Goodz getting twisted in battles may help his image but it's a problem still if Mr. Professional kept drinking and drinking while Hollow was killing him to the point where he chucked his bottle into the crowd out of frustration.

Slogans get played quickly and serve as easy ammo for opponents at best and become filler bars at worst. I'd rather dudes use fresh bars at the end of verses than rely on crowd chanting.

And I didn't get the impression that Goodz was drunk at the time but I also haven't seen that battle in awhile so maybe you noticed something I didn't.

I knew this going in because of your recommendation and I just finished Peter today.. Holy shit what a fuckong great episode. But yeah it took a whole to get into, definitely something you should probably go through as fast as possible to get to the good stuff. Definitely worth it.
