Welcome to me...

Read me like an instruction manual
Skip over the important things
and get to the fun stuff

Over look all the warnings
But clip out the PCS code for rebates
To you I'm just something you use once
And then put away

Like hidden paper work
I never come back
Unless figuring out how it work
Becomes impossible




I become ever so elusive then
Not wanting to see you
For the treatment
Of being a used and torn
Instruction manual

Nitty Scott, MC - Deep Cover Freestyle x Sucker Freestyle

Sucker Free - MTV Shows

Nitty Scott is nice. The young lyricist is garnering a crazy amount of buzz as of late, and her freestyle on MTV's Sucker Free has been the culmination of this so far. Emcees like this should be celebrated, and it's most definitely nice to see her getting this amount of shine.

Paris Jones - Winter x Pop A Bottle

I happened upon Paris Jones earlier this year, through the "Winter" video, which instantly became a favorite song of mine. They young rapper/producer from Los Angeles has been building his fan base, and he's one of few young move makers who doesn't seem to have let his arrogance get ahead of him, returning a great deal of love to those who give him the props he deserves.

Above, you can get a taste of his sound through the aforementioned video for "Winter," featuring April Kelly. Below, you can hear his latest track, "Pop A Bottle."

Make sure you check out his Tumblr page for a ton of tracks/videos. Do NOT sleep on this dude.

Nameless - 16 Bit x 16 Bit:Bonus Stages

I discovered Nameless' "16 Bit" project earlier this year while scavenging the internet for beat tapes actually worth downloading. Tons of people online try to flip video game samples, but they're honestly usually trash. Nameless takes these chiptuned tracks and makes them his own. Very rarely will any beat tapes have my head nodding the way this one did.

Recently, Nameless dropped his long-awaited follow up project, "16 Bit: Bonus Stages." Featuring all new instrumentals along with a few tracks made by very talented emcees spitting over Nameless' beats, including many from the original "16 Bit" tape, this is not a producer you want to sleep on.

"16 Bit" can be found below, with "16 Bit: Bonus Stages" after the jump.

OUCH a poem by Valerié Porcelain-Celestin

Keeping secrets.
Secrets will ultimately keep you.
Maybe it's my secrets that ruined a love so true.
Or so I thought.
Intensify my wounds.
Burn me so deeply with that cigarette you possess.
Stick it deeper in my scars.
Regardless of my agonizing screams,
You continue.
Devour my soul.

I have never been too complicated.
Never asked for much.
I have never needed more than one,
And I've only yearned for your touch.
I've let you come inside me
And given it all up just to get here.
Razorblades and sun-kissed skin.
Red stained tile from my pain induced sin.
Forgive me?

I hate talking to you.
I miss you when you're away.
Come into my heart and love me today.
The more I love you,
The more I feel myself die.
It's wrong and doesn't even feel right.
Come and finish me off.
Say you'll love me tonight.

What is hip hop music?

What is hip hop music? i thought i knew, but dependin on what the day, i dont know what to tell ya'l..... Hip hop as a culture was a masterpiece painted by folks with no art supplies , no training no nothing. Even as the nusic and cultrue has become the most dominate force in american pop cultrue, we need to sit back and ask ourselves, what is hip hop music? do we even control this medium? do we as consumers of the culture know what's hot? who gets on the radio?
