Skrilla do you consider yourself a writer? I ask this because some folks...as much as they write they'll say "No. I am not a writer". You display quite a bit of your work, pound for pound more than most folks in this forum, ((except me in my forum)),........ and that's a sorta bold move b/c u leave yourself wide open for critique....like all artist do when they display their artwork. Do you post your work in the battle forum b/c you want a battle, or are you simply sharing your work?
I write poetry, for myself, so it does not matter much if anyone posts to it. I get 100 views, on a topic some times, with no posts.....

your work usually has a theme, it's usually easy to follow, and humurous at times, with a rap friendly flow. I can buy the gangsterism from Pac, Jz, Nas, even DMX b/c I already saw that they were intelligent, and well informed. They demonstrated understanding of the world around them, obviously you have your own unique thing...I'm just commenting on what makes the gangsterism, brag tracks, something I can identify with. U never seem to write about loss.
That's me.

I can't really rap about loss. I'm in like a growth period right now its like everything is on a roll for the kid. I'm mainly doing the gangster storytelling thing because I had been listening to my dude Ghost all day at the time and it was just ingrained.

Wutang is ever so covertly conscious, they were more on some revolutionary thinking, they may have come off as "loose cannons" but RZA is an intelligent brother, and
Ghostface Killah & Prodigy - Trials Of Life (2007)
as well as Assassination Day
"white lies and blackmail land me back in jail".....those are not empty type lyrics.....

Conscious music, we can define it, right?......part of it has a great deal to do with experiences what you see, what you know to be true, Skrilla.
Have you watched Ghostface's interviews lately, I'm not trying to force the brother into something he's not, but my perception is that he is conscious of certain things, I do not see him as an empty braggart, talking
just coz it sounds good. Some artists are bigger than the boxes we try to put them in.....range

Pretty much everyone falls into that category. Now if you mean politically conscious alot of people fall in that too. Ghost is ghost. He's not conscious he's ghost. Same as Kanye is is Kanye, not conscious. Now Common he's more Oprah's bitch than conscious but I guess I can see that. People make conscious songs but aren't necessarily conscious. I mean look at De La Soul and how they felt after being labeled conscious.
