everyone on here poppin’ off on Rhymefest but have ya’ll actually listened to the album? its one of the top 5 hip-hop albums to drop this year, granted not sayin’ much (but it holds its own against Ice Cube’s Laugh Now, Cry Later; T.I.’s King; DJ Khaled’s Listennn; and Busta’s Big Bang).

Bol you are truly on some kinda power trip. i’m not sure if you actually believe the shit that you post on here or you just keep crankin’ out anything that is remotely controversial so you can attract readers (a la People, US, Star). i’m thinkin’ its the latter since it seems like you want to be the Howard Stern of the internet. sometimes ya shit can be funny but i wouldn’t get yaself all hyped up cuz i doubt anyone is influenced by all of your outsized opinions.

dude… you guys (mindset army) are really feeling yourself. I am Fest’s former manager and the one who was with him when we did the MARK (not mick) Ronson deal (trustfund?records). Your theory of why Fest didn’t sign with Kanye is way out of touch with reality. While I no longer represent Fest, I can assure you that not for one instance did the internet ghostwriting come up at the table. As a matter of fact, we had already done the deal with Allido 2 years before Jesus Walks even was nominated for a Grammy. If you ever want to know the real reason why Fest signed to Mark, you can ask him or email me at crushevents@aol.com.
sincerely,

I dunno.. I’m pretty sure that in a head-to-head (nullus) fight, without any “hammers”, I could definitely take Juellz. Dude is like 42 pounds.

I could probably take Cam (nullus2), but he’d just cheat and hit me with one of those big-ass earrings his little sister lets him wear.

“DipSet’s music may almost always be below par, but as LUCKYME said, there is not one person on this board that would ever step to any of those guys in person.”

…

No one’s trying to fight them. People are just saying that the music ain’t that hot.

“J Records and Hip Hop music is like Dipset and, well…Hip Hop music.”

Damm.. I love a good Dip Set “Ethering”.

He’s on J Records people! Did anybody really expect this guy to do anything? J Records and Hip Hop music is like Dipset and, well…Hip Hop music.

Point is that he’s on a wack label and his first single and video were not up to par…there’s been plenty of near signings that didnt go down and it didnt mess us folks careers….Jeezy was supposed to do his deal thru Sho Nuff and Jazze Pha and actually had the Sho Nuff logo on his early material, he shook them and did his numbers….good music wins out in the end.

Rhymefest’s Music=Not good.

well i got Blue Collar. obviously legally…………..its not half bad anyway.

he got Just Blaze on there too, which was surprising. he would have done Mobb Deep numbers if it was released but eh, looks like nothings happening. good riddance to be honest.

The internet can be harsh in opinions, but it can’t end anyone’s career. What’s funny is, half the people sitting behind their computer screens, really wouldn’t say or do anything in front of these artist face.

If they were to see them in the flesh. A lot of the times, the internet is a way to say stuff, that you wouldn’t say and act up without any reprocussions (because I’m sure there would be in real life).

Anyway, as far as Rhymefest is concerned, I guess people just weern’t interested. It has nothing to do with internet jibberish.

“(not that I watch it or anything. . .fuck it, I do sometimes)
…
Kanye did his whole verse
….
I laugh every time I see it.”

I dont, i do occasionally, i look forward to everytime it is aired, i had a portable video playing device stitched into my breast plate with the clip on repeat…

Rymefests name is a roadbump, most “fests” aren’t worth your time.. (i see you oktoberfest).. plus am i the only one thinking that a good half of the lyrics to jesus walks are stalez

ex.”Now hear ye hear ye want to see Thee more clearly
I know he hear me when my feet get weary
Cuz we’re the almost nearly extinct
We rappers are role models we rap we don’t think
I ain’t here to argue about his facial features
Or here to convert atheists into believers
I’m just trying to say the way school need teachers
The way Kathie Lee needed Regis that’s the way yall need Jesus”

kanyayo… ‘yall’ need a new ghostwriter..
or is ‘yall bloggers’ on some ghost spite hype,.,.,

Reality check time.

The LA Times doesn’t mention your gang by name if you didn’t have shit to do with the dude’s label situation.

I’ll have you bitches know that I didn’t pitch that story to the guy who wrote it or have anything at all to do with it otherwise.

Rhymefest told the reporter that he had a falling out with Kanye because of the Jesus Walks incident.

Ombiant:

“And Exo…what do you mean Lupe’s shit wasnt leaked. What internet you coming from?”

You seem otherwise capable of grasping the English language, so I’ll regard the personal rancor reflected in your question as an honest mistake and not proof that you’re a RIF-deficient, mathematical symbol-challenged imbecile.

It’s in the highest interest of all involved that this be the last word on this matter.

I saw the Wild’n Out thing. That was pretty funny. That counts as getting “ethered”, right?

You & Mr. Irreverant should start your own blog site together. You could call it nahrelevent.com. That pretty much describes both of you to a tee.

Wrong info again.
Fest was signed to Mark Ronson before GOOD Music even exsisted. Bol your ranting and raving about Jesus Walks had no affect on anyone. O yea and they still walked away with the Grammy right? Go spend time trying to ruin Bun B & TI and stop focusing on good artists.

Rhymefest is on Allido Records/J Records. He is also performing at the boy Mark Ecko’s joint in Central Park.

And Exo…what do you mean Lupe’s shit wasnt leaked. What internet you coming from?
