Gone Head...

On this first note I can only speak for myself. Last Friday, when Jay-Z's latest single DOA was aired, on Hot97 in New York, like I said before, I was excited. AGAIN, not because of Jay-Z, per say, and not because the song was SO HAWT. I was estatic that music lovers ALL OVER THE WORLD were at their computer and radios anticipating new music. Not only that but an exclusive that would have been exclusive to only one city, through modern technology, was available to the world via old school radio waves. ENOUGH OF THAT NOW...

What I really want to say

It seems that more people are pretty up in arms about it. The ploy was to create a divide about weather to be for or against the AUTOTUNE, and it seems to be working. I heard a "response" of course by somebody probably recording in their basement. Even Wyclef and Nick Cannon have a Autotune dis record. Now I'm hearing and reading about all these extra sensative people upset that Jay-Z is attacking autotune. Acutually he attacking autotune using RAPPERS - I mean, he did say "get back to RAPPIN, you T-Pain-ing too much" (not get back to singing, get back to rapping). Which only brings 2 rappers to my mind. The autotune is not going to die I think better choice of an autotune records popularity will be brought into effect.




This "Jumpin out the window" song is/was and FOREVER will be WACK ASS HELL. I think we all can honestly agree that that song only got air play because it was on autotune (same can be said for the "pop champaign" song with Jim Jones - OMG). So there is a serious problem with "The Industry" rewarding artist with air play because of their ability to make a song with autotune on it. Its bad enough we get force fed the other crap, now every other song got to have some MAX HEADROOM soundin' ass muh fuggah on it?


The two rappers that use this autotune are Kanye West and Lil Wayne. Now I can Not say this was aimed at them because Jigga mentions both of theses guy in the "DOA" song, and not in a negative manner. PLus, they both "changed genres" for their autotune ladden albums, though those songs will/are still on rotation on your local HIP HOP station.

Every one is commenting on Jay-Z's latest release, a single entitled "DOA: Death of the Autotune". I've heard everything from, "Jay-Z is trying to take money away from artist" to "its not a hot song, he could have done better" to "Its just a way for him to come back"...

I tend to agree with all those statements. Thing is, we are missing what truly happened on Friday evening. Lets see, from anywhere IN THE WORLD, that had Internet access, you could have heard this debut LIVE. I do not think that has ever been done before, Has it?

Most people theses days can not even get a good album release date due to leaks. Some artist leak their own music to get a "buzz" going. Some artist even build buzz from saying it will be release for a year or so, to build anticipation for the album. Then we have to think about all these songs that get debuted as "downloads".

"Back in the days", I'm talking like the origin of hip hop days, late 70's early 80's, this is how all rap songs got out. The KRS1's and Juice Crew All-Stars (I will not make this a naming showcase) they would record at the studio then run down to the radio station and give the tape to the DJ. Of Course that can not happen today, TOO MANY NIGGAS WANNA RAP!

Fact is DOA could have been the worst track in Hip hop History and it still would have received the largest audience a single ever debuted. At least that what excited me. I know that not how most viewed it though and thats why we collectively get taken. Its was nothing more than a great marketing/publicity ploy.

Aight, so last week Twitter had its 1st, and hopefully not last, snap battle/ Jonesin contest/ roasting session between Kevin Hart(left) and Lil Duval(right). It was Hillarious! If you missed it I got is ALL HERE...












































FINISH HIM!!!!










WINNER!

It was entertaining as hell I want to see more of this

Exactly, Misconstrued is right Mr Juelz Santana

I totally agree that using the internet for spewing hate is an act of "gayness"(what is gayness or "acting gay" is a whole 'nutha topic). Problem is you can NOT get mad at a specific person(hater) then make a generalization about all people who hate.

Thats the trap!

We do not want to identify the specific person because we do not want to give that hater unjust publicity. At the same time, we want to subliminally admonish the embellishment of haters by , as stated by Juelz Santana, letting them fuel your energy, building off their hate, and other such statements. Thats an oxymoron if I ever seen one, its very self-contradictory and leads to these "misconstruments"(yeah I made that word up, its the Jessie Jackson in me).

Giving haters all this "praise" without proper recognition, is Mad, I tell you MAD. That like the Grammy's or Oscar's only announcing the nominees and not having an awards show. Like, these people deserve awards but lets not pick a winner.



Actually, if the video is not working Keri Hilson probably does not want people to keep listening to her back pettle (like beep beep beep beep beep).

So lets not do it to ourselves, if you see a hater "point 'em out, point 'em out". If you dont theses seemingly pointed generalizations will tranfsorm into misconstruments that will screw you - EVERYTIME. Then you'll have to make a Recantation of Hateration, that will have you back peedling like "go go beep beep".

If you dont want to "name names" at least name the "hoish" or "gayn" or "bitchass" activity that was committed - that way you dont get UNWANTED haters "fueling your energy", "motivating you", "giving you ennergy to build off of", or making you GO GO! BEEP BEEP!

Look, yall got me saying it now.
