"Ayo Yo Redman... What the f**k, get off that smooth bullsh**...."

The vigil didn't get shot up. I was right there against the wall of the juice spot. It was a fight and bottles broke so people thought it was shots ans started running.
Now afterwards it got crazy cause some shit went down in the intersection and some people were down.

Stop acting like we don't really rap in LA and Cali period. Everyone ain't a gangbanger out here and dont use that sound as a crutch. We will rap circles around anyone.

It's plenty of Black + brown owned streetwear brands that are better than Supreme in design and quality.
Supervsn, Bricks & Wood, Crenshaw Skate Club, Awake NY, Born x Raised, Carrots, Apt 4B, Union LA, Bobs liquor store etc. And that's just mostly LA based brands for starters

ATTN INDEPENDENT ARTISTS:
Always give yourself at least 30 days to release a project and promote it properly before release.
YOU ARE THE RECORD LABEL. So move like a company, not the artist, when releasing product aka YOUR MUSIC.

If you listen to an artist, go buy their music. Streaming does not help. TikTok does not help.
Buying music actually tangibly helps artists career more than just the money. The data let's the artist know who the real fans are so they can better engage with them via shows etc

Black + brown people run Hip Hop but don't control hardly any media. So every article feels like a national geographic article. Like these white journalists are on safari in rap-land.

The dude Lupe rhymed:

Turn ya umbrellas upside down,
Did you even catch the change in theme."

LA is more than gangsta shit. We are the center of the world. The music reflects that too. Yet niggas stay sweeping anything other than gangsta music under the rug when it comes to speaking on who actually pushed the culture forward out here.

I know rap peers and homies that took a looong break from making music, but recently returned and have released high quality projects in the past two years. Some older than me! 😂
So if you really love this, you're gonna still rap and create this hip hop shit.

While mainstream rap has been dealing with streaming, the underground cats have been selling physical product like crazy. Vinyl for $80+ that then gets resold for $200-500+ on discogs and ebay. And Fans who buy physical shit are worth more than the fans who stream a song

Don't spend all that time and $$$ in the studio creating the music and no money on building your brand and presenting the music. Cause ya just placing fine china in a garbage bag and trying to sell it to folks. That's why you're not getting where you feel you should be.

For the past 5 years it really hasn't been any solid outlets for rap and music shit in the city. In 2018 we got:
PayDay LA
Don't Come to LA
Bananas
Beats & Tacos
The Basement LA
So keep supporting the dope shit...
Feeling like 2010 in this bitch haha

If you are outside protesting cover your face for safety and so they won’t be able to identify you. Protest smartly because authorities will come afterwards trying to charge people. They do it everytime.

Yes he can sue. As long as you can prove the other party benefitted off the song being leaked you can receive a judgement and compensation. Doesn't have to be sold to show benefit.
Playing it in the biggest streamer in the world stream is a benefit.

Hot take: a lot of the current Hip Hop fans didn't start listening to it until 2016.
They are not part of the "who's the best MC's Biggie, Jay-Z, or Nas?" Generations lol.

That was legendary on slauson today.

Grateful to be able to stand in the middle of slauson and give thanks to a legend with the WHOLE HOOD!

My advice for Rappers these days: limit the access fans have to you and be more deliberate with what you decide to let them access.
The tide is turning and everyone is getting burnt out by the constant promotion. The ones who limit that will win in the future.

Some people forget that Dilla was LA based in those last years before he passed and stayed in the Melrose area. So a lot of LA music folks love him and claim him like he was from the city.

Still biggest debut as far as fanfare for a rap artist I've witnessed. Only 50 debut comes close imo.
Newsweek even portrayed him as the most dangerous man in America lol.

if I can skip more than 3 songs on your album it's not a classic lol
A classic is really an album with NO skips. or maybe 1-2. No more than that.

You know how they have a songwriter camp or the playlist retreat? We need one for rappers to show them how to develop your career in 2019. Let's work on one!
