Im all for new forms of hip hop music. If you want to wear tight jeans and smedium T-Shirts, hey thats fine. The baggy white T and baggy jeans are played out. But when you change up your style completely while trying way to hard to break away from what you are, and that seems to effect your music and not in a positive way, well thats when I gotta call you out. I mean dam take a look at Cages outfit here. I feel like the old Cage made better music. Bring the old Cage back. Yak Ballz, your falling into the same category. My Claim was a great album. Ever since your just aiiight. Isnt Aesop rock still rocking Nikes and baggy jeans? Yea and his music is still good. It seems people are trying way too hard to break away from the norm, but in doing so you have fallen into a new category, one which you will deny you are, but you my friends are indeed "hipsters."
For those who dont know ICR is one of the most OG and respected crews in Los Angeles. Some of these dudes been painting 20 years and are still active. Went out to catch up with my ICR TAF homies at The Good the Bad and the CIVILIZED show at the Basement. Good to see my AZ homies Pubes, Bug, Wyner, Srek, Rank and Tens and also my LA homies I havent seen forever Jero, Kools, Versuz and everyone else I knew or met there. Some great work there but I only got to take a few pics.
My old homie RYU (SOB, Fort Minor) has a new group called Get Busy Committee. Members include Apathy (demigodz) and Scoop Deville (producer for Fat Joe, Snoop etc.) I went out to a video shoot for them being directed by 2Tone.
