WOW...I noticed that you branched out a little more on the beats Norm, maybe its just me, but fuckin sick non the less. Noticed the same thing with the Jesus tapes.

A lot more "feel good" beats

i've mellowed in my older years...

naw..just trying to make shit that sticks to the concepts for the projects..same sorta shit i did with lucha lonely..even the cowboys album..i'm always just trying to make the background noise for the movie..

i like the short songs...i got no attention span
i'd rather people think the songs are too short then too long.


thanks for the kind words everyone...

The beauty of short tracks when I'm doing a mixtape vs. an album is I don't have to cut off verses that people might like since I usually only play a verse when doing this style, so the tracks fit perfectly for the vibe, keeps it moving.

Album is dope as usual. And I'm glad to see you all cleared shit up with Bill that shit was wack well a good song came out of it but besides that it was kinda wack you all make a good team.

"What record that's perhaps local or under the radar did you suggest to the jury and would like to plug here to the whole world?

K-Dot-O-Dot & 9th Uno's Drugstore Cowboys. It's a gritty ode to drugs and the drug-dealing lifestyle that somehow avoids the clichés prevalent in most hip-hop on the subject, but it's also filled with over-the-top humour delivered with a straight face.

The interaction between the two emcees appears effortless, especially as they opt to trade lines while most collaborating emcees prefer to trade verses. And the blue-inflected east coast bangers courtesy of Arkeologist Norman Krates are a perfect fit, as are the precise cuts of DJ Shamann. Unfortunately, it might have been a little too raw for most of the non-hip-hop jury members, and the crew sort of suck at promo, too."

LMFAO

gee thanks Doogie

"..But Krates is alive and Bill is back to his brilliant marketing and promos"

doogies a flip flopper...lol

aw well...at least with bill we had some kind of promo...better then the non-existant promo we have now...lol

i\m thinkin of printing up some flyers and sticking them on poles

thing is, I was only able to do so much from a computer I mean, wtf else did the guy want me to do?

I don't really see him promoting much of his shit online and he's talking shit about me?

whatever man

waste of time I guess

people pour all kinds of cash promoting their shit, look at some of the rap acts on here who waste money on their wack shit

I try to promote whatever way I can, stir shit up whatever works, and everyone knows you guys because of it


doogie needs a fucking slap across the fucking face

this is from august, ..i think he was more talking about the rest of us...and he's pretty much right.
we dont know how to do it...getting people to peep your shit without looking like every other fag on facebook with a music page posting on everyones walls...

having people tell you from all over the world tell you they love your shit..and have to look in my car seat for change in the morning to buy cofee and a couple single smokes from the corner store..lol

it's a strange game out there man...
people are afraid to fuck with anything on a bigger level unless its pop music..

so fuck it all anyways...
