There is a lot of conscious rap out there. The ish is so tight it is mind boggling but here our people are making millionairs outta of fools like TI, JayZ, P Diddy (or dildo), 50 cents, Young Berg, etc..

Definitely an obsessed stalker! (LOL), just playing, but she is very talented. Thanks for the info.
I love to hear when people appreciate different talented and often times underrated artists, especially artists that are not shoved into our faces daily. (i.e. your ex Bey, rihanna etc... no doubt they are talented, but so overrated, sorry skiz).
