Count me in on the Atmosphere love.

I do respect it for what it is, it's just something I've never been enamored with. After awhile it gets repetitive to me.

oh don't worry... i wasn't knocking you or anything... i was just putting in my 2 cents.

Do any of you guys catch the World Rap Champions on http://www.jumpoff.tv?!? The new season's just started up. Qualifying rounds have just ended. The best battlers from around the world go toe to toe. It's incredibly entertaining and very good for the rap game.

I am putting this out for free just because.... well, I want the world to hear some good music... and what better way to hear great music, than to have it be free? I am coming out with a mix-tapes here and there and hope to start on a full-length album at some point in my life but it all starts here. I'd like to go through the tracklisting to give you a feel what I'm all about, if you haven't been listening yet, or don't quite understand.

"Lost in Thought" is self-produced and is one of the headliners from my bigger and more creative mixtapes "Backwards" that will mostly be self-produced and have a lot more featured artists. This song includes lots of references and pop-culture pokes that are all very hard to locate on one listen or even ten. It's all about getting lost in thought when you write some intricate lyrics with indepth meanings.

"Make Me Feel" is a song about how the Rap life makes me feel, and how ladies make me feel which is a common topic of mine throughout my work. I feature one of my classmates back from highschool on this one.

"Foolish Heart" is a self-produced track in which I sampled Steve Perry's (from Journey) song of the same title. This song is about the aftermath of breaking up with a girl. The first verse is the immediate harsh thoughts of my ex and the pain she's caused even though I'm being bitter and unrealistic. The second verse which sounds more enthusiastic is me getting over it.

"Soul Saturday" is another self-produced joint which samples the 20th Century Fox theme in a feel-good party jam. It's the chronicles of my Saturday nights during my first semester in college.

"Blue Moon" is about living a rap life that is truly perfect and I'm not talking about having material things. However, this type of life only happens once in a blue moon.

"Just Wanna Love You" is the true story about meeting the same girl that I grumble over in "Foolish Heart". Not a single bit of information from this song is fabricated or made-up at all... give me some props for that .

"Come Down" is a conversation between me and myself up until the quote "new shift" in which I stop talking to myself and switch over to talking to a girl about listening to my music... hence the quote "New Shift".

"It Ain't My Life" illustrates what lives many rappers or rap criminals lead and I express that "THAT" will never be my life.

"Let Me" is an ode to the legends, the dead, and my favorites of all-time in the rap industry and how they helped pave the road for the direction I've taken in my life by doing hip-hop.

"So Clear" is the sudden realization of how most people you meet are fake and will only hinder you and don't want to see you succeed. The 3rd verse of the song is my unconditional love for people, whether they hate me or not.

"Royalty" is how Jay Illestrate and I decided to introduce ourselves.

"And 2 Baked Apple Pies" has nothing to do with the McDonald's dollar menu, although it is mentioned at the end. The song has to do with everything I love about the summertime in my hometown.

"Divine" is practically my anthem. I even use the "Develop, divine" catchphrase in the previous song. This song honestly, isn't really about anything, but it was commonly recited among the students at my high-school for it's catchy hook.

"Before" is about how much better I am than my peers. What? Can't I be conceited? It's titled before because I was better than all yall's before. It's an oxy-moron because I'm being arrogant with the lyrics, but I'm humble with telling you that I'm better than the rest only before and not after.

"I Wonder" is the true story about this chick I'm still in the chase for. She's fully-aware of this song, but she's been with her loser boyfriend for two and a half years, so she stays with him instead of choosing her true love .

"All That Matters" is about a girl too. See the trend? I'll tell you this... when the respective girls that these songs are about get their ears on this ****, it's not too hard to get laid.

"Gotchaluv" is my first recorded song and it's about random stuff.

"Love Is" is about showing the world what's right and what's wrong, which is my true love in hip-hop... a genre of music in which I find so much right and wrong in, that the irony is killing me. My excerpt in the 2nd half of the song is my definition on what Love is.

Re: fans of underground rap?

That cover is tight as hell... I thought they had 13 tracks... 11 seems way too short and Lil' Wayne!????

THATS CRAZY

Phonte always said that Wayne was one of his favorite rappers...no shock to see him on there...when is it supposed to drop anyway

Re: fans of underground rap?

Anyone hear Monster Maker by Sharkey and C-Rayz Walz?

Pretty f'n dope! Kinda reminds me of Gnarls Barkley vibe, minus the singing.

Re: fans of underground rap?

Best beat 9th ever made was from Chemistry and perhaps my favorite beat ever... "I Don't Know Why" ft Keisha Shontelle

eh...that beat was so-so....not even top 4 on the album IMO....I like "aint no comparison much better"

as far as my fav 9th beat...i really like the joint he wid with Bleek "Live from amsterdam"....short but song cranks

btw..."what we do" by just blaze was/is his best work...that combined with jay's verse in it make it incredible

"bullets breeze bayou, like lousiana man"
