Blind Fury Vs. Moon

In my opinion, Moon lost this from the start. He only gave Blind Fury a lot of material to use. Even thought Blind Fury… is… well… blind… they stage presence also tells a story. Moon was afraid to lose and could not keep his cool.

Speaking of which, why did he call himself “Moon”? That’s difficult to trademark.

Representing March 23, 2011… 23 of the #31femcees… Today, let’s talk about @KidSister Hails From: Chicago, IL. Game Entry Date: 2005 Label: Universal Republic Interesting Fact: Was one of Kanye West’s protégées. Was nominated for a BET award for Best Female Rapper in 2008. Like a few others listed, she is also a singer as well as a rapper. And she sounds more like a dance/pop music rapper than a hip-hop one. Indie or Major: Major Official Hub: KidSisterMusic.com Other Thoughts: Kid Sister has a degree in film from Columbia College Chicago. Her Thoughts: “Dance music is now pop music, and I think that that’s had a lot to do with [the album’s] success. I remember Jennifer Hudson came out with like a techno song— it was great, but I was like, ‘Damn, this shit is getting popular!’ Even though we have fun with it, we like to think that we come from a slightly more innovative, sophisticated place. ” - Pitchfolk

Representing March 19, 2011… 19 of the #31femcees… Today, let’s talk about Nitty-Scott M.C. @NittyScottMC Hails From: Brooklyn, NY by the way of Flordia Game Entry Date: 200… something… of the other… Label: Unsigned… maybe. Interesting Fact: Nitty Scott is one of the few that manages to get a buzz without major co-signs. Like AtLas’, Nitty Scott is a young traditionalist, sticking to the basics of Hip-Hop. In this case, she is mostly seen with a boombox, representing Hip-hop in the purest form. While no major artists has taken stock in her, she is featured on AllHip-Hop, Ms. Info and had radio interviews. She’s more than a emcee, but a personality as well. All this… … and she’s 1 year shy of the legal drinking age. Indie or Major: Indie. Official Hub: turntabletendencies.com Other Thoughts: Usually, I tend to have lil’ thoughtful things with a dash of comical statements, but this time, it’s about the picture. I tried really hard to look for a decent-sized picture of her with a boombox. Only picture I managed to find without it screwing up the look of the site is this one. It can’t be help. On the other hand, she does look like a Spanish Lauren London. To quote Mos Def “Lord, Lord, Lord, Lord, Lord… Loooord Loooooooooooooooooooooooooord!” Her Thoughts: “I think it’s the industry approach to the situation because my fans specifically, I think they just love what I do. I don’t think they love me because they want me to get to ‘the next level.’ I think they just appreciate it for what it is because my definition for success is not that. I’m here for longevity. I’m here to have a career. I’m not here for my 15 minutes. I’m humble about it and I get a lot of people that hit me with the industry [perspective], wanting me to switch up my whole style to be more mainstream and more commercial. That’s not my thing.” - Brooklyn Bodega (No Music video, No music. Just a display of pure skill)

Immortal Technique & Diabolic Freestyle

Hip-Hop can’t be always about the old times. Every once in a while, a fresh breathe of air comes thru. Even thought I’m a member of Digiwaxx, it’s not often do I post up something. But I’ll have to give a co-sign to Diggy Simmons.

I recently looked at this “Made You Look Freestyle” and I’ll have to give him my support as well.

Good luck on your journey, kiddo.

Sidenote: Some people say this isn’t really a freestyle, as one should come from top your head, not written first. However, according to other sources, a Freestyle is something that no one ever heard before. It can also be a freestyle if it’s on top of an instrumental that is already out there, flipping words to a known chorus. I’ll leave that for you to decide, tho.
