Yesterday, the hosts of The View engaged in a round of reading mean tweets made famous by their guest Jimmy Kimmel. I thought I would get a kick out of the tweets as usual until I realized Raven was nowhere to be found. Typical. So these tweets go out to you Raven Symone. Sorry you missed all of the fun.
Thanks goes out to DJ Ave Mcree for including my beat in this mix.

So there is a rapper from Jersey claiming that Fetty Wap bit his style. From my perspective, everyone bites. This rap/singing style has been bitten and is not new. Artists usually put their spin on things that have been done before. I don't fault Tax G for speaking out and I can admit that I, as well as others, have spoken out when we felt as if someone was copying or imitating parts of our personal or professional lives. It's a natural reaction. People handle these situations as they see fit, but if I was Tax G, I would change my name to something more recognizable and booking agent friendly, I would go hard in the studio and make the best music of my life, and drop it right now. The people who really purchase and love music do not care if multiple artists sound the same. There are at least 15 rappers in Atlanta who sound the same and they all are making money. Why does this situation have to be any different.? Check out Tax G's interview below with AllHipHop.com and his video for I'm Up, produced by K.E. On the Track. The similarities to Fetty Wap do not stop at the dreds.
When I saw this I was like so what. He Gets most of the money. I listened to the clip and The Breakfast club tried to explained what caused the low sales. What numbers did he expect to do?
On Wednesday, September 3rd, 2014, Jean Batiste released his first solo mixtape titled "O.T.I.S. - Only The Intelligent Survive." The mixtape is a direct message to the next generation of music makers and music consumers. It is an answer to the call to bring back hip hop to its original level of conception. It is a tribute to the storytelling elements of the hip hop pioneers with a southern mainstream sound, but with underground content. No Parental Advisory necessary. This is the future of hip hop, if hip hop has a future.
