First of all I hear everything yawl is saying and my beef ain´t with you.I respect every single emcee who holds a mic and spits shit on da real.Thus let me clear this up-I THINK ALL OF THE OTHER EMCEES ON THA EXPRESSIONS COMPILATION ROCK FOR REAL!!!ESP.PROVERB,SELWYN,OPTICAL ILL, SKWATTA, MAD SCIENTIST, NGWENYA, AND THE ORIGINS... NOT TO MENTION THAT MAXIMUM SENTENSE VOL.1 IS ONE OF MY FAVOURITE CDs.
So I´m way past the Underground/Commercial-Signed thing, or even the Kwaito/HipHop shit. What I´m saying is that I´m down for exposure, and that I think it´s about time SA emcees got a break, and SA hiphop began to grow on a larger scale. Secondly...
I DON´T ´PLAYA´ HATE I ´HYPOCRITE´ HATE.
If you just take a moment to really observe what Amu is about...you´ll see right through him...but if you choose to throw this shit back into my face, then it´s cool, my beef is not with you.
This forum is supposed to represent a society that stretches beyond geographic borders and unites fans of this art form. I was just making it more of a society by expressing my views, and that goes to say I respect yours...´coz I regard you as friends.
I don´t hate Amu-I hate what he´s doing. Not because he´s making money, but because he´s NOT TRUE & HYPOCRITSM IS JUST NOT MY THING.
Now that he has ´made´ he represents a public view of hiphop for every under exposed person who is new to this. To encourage people to support the industry, he needs to act responsibly, and for once stop thinking of only himself.
How can we expect support, when a HIPHOP artist turns around and says f*** HIPHOP IT´S JUST A STAGE SHOW?
Again, much love to everyone.Peace.
