I DON'T CARE ABOUT OR HAVE ANY ALLEGIANCE TO ANY OF THE SOCAL NETWORKING PLATFORMS LIKE MYSPACE, FACEBOOK OR TWITTER BUT....I HAVE TO BE HONEST, TWITTER IS THE EASIEST WAY FOR ME TO UPDATE YOU GUYS ON WHEN I LEAK A NEW SONG, OR WHEN I HAVE A CONTEST RUNNING OR WHEN I NEED TO ANNOUNCE A NEW TOUR OR EVEN WHEN I NEED TO UPDATE YOU GUYS THAT I'VE UPDATED MY MYSPACE PAGE.

Who could deliver everything from Bun B speaking from the suicidal perspective of Kurt Cobain to Everlast channeling ‘Howard Zinn On Genocide’ to ILL BILL’s lyrical adaptation of ‘Memoirs of a Boy Soldier’ by Ishmael Beah all in one song?
