WELLL I 'LL START BY SAYING IT HASNT CHANGED IT'S BARLEY HANGIN ON BY A BREATH OR TWO . AND I'D LIKE TO CONGRADULATE THA RAPPERS WHOM HAVE NOT GIVEN UP COMPLETLY TRYING TO KEEP IT ALIVE AND POSSIBLY BRING IT BACKKK...I MEAN REALLY AM I THA ONLY ONE WHO FINDS MYSELF LISTENING TO OLD MUSIC FROM BACK IN THA DAY I MEAN REAL MUSIC ... LIKE MONTELL JORDAN ''THIS IS HOW WE DO IT''... YOU KNO OR KNOCKIN TO SOME OLD SNOOP '' GIN AND JUICE'' ... S*** YOU CAN VIBE TO ... OR WHOM EVER YOU PERFER ...... ITS JUST THAT NOW A DAYS .. ITS THA SING ALONG DO THIS WIT ME YEAR OF MUSIC . I GUESS AND I'M NOT REALLY FELLIN IT LIKE THAT ... I MEAN DONT GET ME WRONG I LISTEN TO IT HERE AND THER . BUT I FEEL LIKE TO BUY THE CD I GOT TO GET MORE THAN A HIT RECORD. I NEED TO FEEL IT .. VIBE WITH IT... AND THIS WHY PPL GET BOOTLEGS NOT BECAUSE THEY DONT HAVE THE MONEY BUT MORE SO . BECAUSE IT'S LIKE WHY WOULD I SPEND 16.99 ON A CD I MIGHT NOT EVEN LIKE ... SO WE DEPEND ON ARTIST WHOM WE ARE FAMILAIR WITH TO GIVE US THAT EXTRA UMPH .WHICH WE WILL GO BUY THERE CD ...BUT HELL EVEN SOME OF THEM FALLIN OFF. AND THIS MUSIC INDUSTRY WILL EAT YOU ALIVE .. I'M SURE OF IT.. TO MANY FALLEN RAPPERS. ALL THE GHOST WRITERS TAKEN THE ARTIST SHINE AND PUTTIN ON BLAST .THEN YOU LOSE A GREAT FAN BASE BECAUSE THEY THOUGHT YOU WERE BEING REAL . BUT YOU KNO THATS HOW THIS GAME IS .... AS WELLL AS YOU CAN TELL WHOM WILL BE AROUND FOR A LONG TIME AND WHO WONT ... LOOK AT J.T.

KINDA MAKES YOU SIT BACK AND WONDER FIVE YEARS FROM NOW HOW MANY ARTIST WILL STILL BE AROUND MAKING HITS AND NOT JUST S*** YOU CAN SING ALONG TO BUT I MEAN REAL MUSIC .........
