Facts. Math needs to stop making music or whatever you wanna call it. His whole aura or look doesn’t fit for the culture. Stick to interviews please I beg of you. Take wale and logic with you too.

Steve Rifkind is one of my favorite executives in hip hop. Loud Records had a line-up of true spitters in Big Pun, Wu-Tang Clan, Mobb Deep, Xzibit & others. Never knew Big Pun called Steve Rifkind to leave the fat farm so he can take his daughter to her first day of school and that Steve Rifkind offered him money per pound he lost.

Lord Jamar’s 1st verse clearly in his new record clearly shows a disdain for PR’s & Jamaicans. Secondly he says there was no influence from those groups yet he attempts to drop patois in Love Me Or Leave Me Alone and has a rapper doing some patois on Step Into Da Cipher…and on that Sam record there is a rapper who is white who raps after Lord Jamar and drops the N bomb. Bottom line is Lord Jamar found out he had some Guyanese heritage and literally came sucking at the teat of “FBA” when some people questioned his FBAness. Sad really.
