IM IN A BOX APPARENTLY......

YO.......WHAT'S GOOD WORLD????

I WAS ARGUING WITH AN ARTIST THAT IM GONNA BE WORKING WITH WHO SPITS OUT HERE IN ALABAMA...AND HE WAS SAYING THAT EVERY ARTIST IN HIP-HOP CAN BE PLACED IN A BOX WITH OTHER ARTISTS AFTER YOU LISTEN 2 JUST 3 OF THEIR SONGS....LOL AND HE DECIDED 2 LABEL ME AS A "CONSCIOUS RAPPER"....


OF COURSE I WASN'T GONNA LET THAT GO....CUZ IM PASSIONATE ABOUT HIP-HOP...I GOT SOMEWHAT OFFENDED BY HIS OPINION....AND WE ARGUED 4 ABOUT 2 HRS AND 30 MIN......LITERALLY....NO BS

I HATE THAT TERM "CONSCIOUS"......LOL
4REAL I MEAN THAT MAKES IT SEEM LIKE ALL OF THE RAPPERS WHO AREN'T IN MY BOX ARE STUPID....EVEN THO I'M NOT IN A BOX....
FORGIVE ME FOR HAVING A HEART....UNLIKE EVERYONE ELSE I USE IT....2 AFFECT CHANGE AND INSPIRE OTHER PEOPLE...

HE SAID HE WOULD PUT ME IN DA BOX WITH TALIB KWELI, COMMON, MOS DEF, AND KANYE WEST....AND I DON'T MIND BEING COMPARED TO THESE GREAT ARTISTS....BUT HE SAID WE TALK ABOUT THE SAME THINGS....AND WHEN IN REALITY WE DON'T.....
I FEEL IM NOT SIMILAR TO THESE ARTISTS BECAUSE I HAVEN'T DEFINED MY STYLE YET....REALLY BECAUSE I LOVE ALOT OF STYLES....I WRITE R&B MUSIC ALL THE TIME....AND NO NOT RAP/R&B.....NO DISRESPECT TO PLIES....BUT I MEAN REAL LIKE KEITH SWEAT BEGGIN R&B.....SO THAT ALREADY PUTS ME IN A DIFFERENT "BOX" SO TO SPEAK.....REALLY ALL THE ARTISTS I MENTIONED DON'T TALK ABOUT THE SAME THINGS...IN MY OPINION....IF U REALLY LISTEN 2 KANYE'S LYRICS....HE DOESN'T TALK ABOUT HIS PERSONAL LIFE ALOT....HE JUST SOUNDS MORE HONEST THAN ALOT OF THE OTHER RAPPERS OUT 2DAY...AND ALOT HIS RECORDS HE REALLY ISN'T SAYIN ANYTHING 2 PROFOUND.....NOT SAYIN THAT'S BAD CUZ THAT WORKS ALOT OF THE TIME.....LIKE JUST RIDE THE BEAT AND HAVE GOOD VOCAL PRESENCE AND U HAVE A HIT SINGLE.....NOTHING WRONG WITH THAT.....TALIB KWELI IS ON DA KNOWLEDGE SHIT....PEEP "HOSTILE GOSPEL" 2 SEE WHAT IM TALKIN BOUT....SO HE'S DIFFERENT FROM COMMON....NOT THAT COMMON ISN'T ON KNOWLEDGE CUZ HE IS ALSO....BUT I THINK OF HIM MORE AS A FRIEND HOPING HE'LL RUB OFF ON U POSTIVELY....AND TALIB KWELI AS A PREACHER....TELLING WHAT THE TRUTH IS.....BOTH SUPERB ARTISTS....BY THE WAY.....AND MOS DEF CAN BE PUT WITH TALIB KWELI ONLY BECUZ OF THE FACT THAT THEY WERE ORIGINALLY "BLACK STAR"...U KNOW, A GROUP???
SO, OF COURSE THEY WOULD HAVE THE SAME SUBJECT MATTER....BUT THEY ARE NOT IN A BOX....AND I HATE WHEN PEOPLE TRY 2 PUT OTHER PEOPLE IN A BOX....JUST MY OPINION....BUT I DON'T LIKE THINGS SO ORGANIZED LIKE THAT....DON'T GET ME WRONG I LIKE ORGANIZATION...BUT I DON'T THINK WE NEED ALL OF THESE SUB-GENRE'S.....I MEAN LIKE WHAT THE HELL IS A CLASSICAL ACOUSTIC FOLK-HOP MIXED WITH JAZZ AND EMO.....WHAT IS THAT???? I MEAN LOOK AT ALL OF THE GENRES THAT MYSPACE HAS ON MYSPACE MUSIC.........AND TRUST ME I'M "CONSCIOUS" OF THE FACT THAT THERE IS ALOT OF MUSIC GOIN IN THE WORLD....IVE BEEN EXPOSED 2 ALOT OF IT...IM WILLING 2 LISTEN 2 IT ALL....FROM MARILYN MANSON TO MOBY TO HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL TO SCARFACE TO TAYLOR SWIFT....I LIKE IT ALL IN SOME WAY....BUT DON'T PUT PEOPLE IN A BOX....YOU DON'T EVERYONE'S POTENTIAL....ONLY GOD DOES....CUZ HE'S PLANNED THAT PERSON'S LIFE ALREADY.......
