Hip Hop is a life long love for me, more than that actually, its an obsession for me. I sit in the john and tap out drum lines on the wall while I am taking a shit, I am always thinking of someway to make my next beat. People talk, and I hear Rap Lyrics. Its everywhere for me, its everything to me! But a few years ago I came to the realization that Hip Hop, like most things in life that have a heirarchy, is full of snakes, fakes and flakes! There is no way around it, its a sad truth but its the truth nonetheless. When I needed my Hip Hop community to come to my aid when I got a raw deal in Portland, OR (Long story, I will go into another time) the only ones that showed up are my real friends who would have showed up regardless of my music. In my opinion, the only similarity we share with Gangs and Organized Crime, is that when someone needs to roll on you to get over, they will do it in a New York Minute! Most people in Hip Hop will roll over their dying mother to hump their sister! Sad truth, but the truth nonetheless! DJ Drama and Cannon got what I got, what many others have got and what any of you will get if you ever think that their is loyalty in this game. The only people who will be loyal to you are the ones who were loyal to you before your music took you anywhere and you even have to watch some of them. I wish it were not the case, but it is the way it is. Loyalty in this life is a hard thing to come by, and when you find it, you better make damn sure you appreciate it, because its a rare bird that most of us will never even get to see in our lifetime!
