With radio and club DJs seemingly spinning nothing but Dirty South club bangers, one would naturally wonder, ”What’s an East Coast lyricist to do?” Massachusetts-native Termanology gives his two cents on the direction of The Music Industry, describing how MySpace and YouTube have been revolutionary. The primary focus of the song, however, is that DJs almost never spin street songs (”this record here might never get played”). Regardless, with an old-school beat courtesy of Fizzy Womack (better known as Lil’ Fame of M.O.P.), even if The Music Industry never receives mainstream airplay, it will expose lyrical hip hop at its finest.
Now that’s what I call music!! Finally we got something fresh, lyrically focused and real. Everything he says after the question “What’s Hip-Hop?” (1:28) is just a remarkable inconvenient truth! The beat is also great yet!
Dude i felt the real feel here if you ever want me to sweeten your track with an R & B Hook. I would be honored you heading in the right direction .Hit me up Colbyo.com
I like his change of style. This is very very mixable, and downtempo (i dont know how u say it in America). This sounds like it will be perfect for a x-over track. I def could use this track in my lounge set
I mix in Germany and Uk mainly DJ Z, I sometimes do kurtains for an Deephouse artist called Kaskade so I travel a lot and dont get to do many Urban sets; but I saw this cat when he was at the Beat Hut in London earlier this month, this guy can spit real nice. I think why he is good over here is that his flow is very laid back; I would rank him in the top 10 of mixable artists right now in the game.
samples of Q-tip always work, nuff said! this will go inside my ride along side , Got to get you home, still ray, Lost ones ,you got me,scenario, flava in ya ear.....etc
Yooo! I heard of him before and heard his other tracks on this site, but I really like how he is flowing right on top of the beat without rest. It is really creative and the beat is tight. I can't hate on this right here. It's good rap music and very DJ friendly. I'll be lookin out for termanology in 08!
Hey Deadly D, good question: why isn’t he bigger?! I guess it has to do with some issues he points in this song. Anyway, he SHOULD be bigger! As for the album, he has one called Out the Gate. But if you or ANYONE wanna hear more of him, get Statik Selektah's debut album Spell My Name Right: The Album where he is also featured heavily. It’s a GREAT ALBUM!
Wow,lol a nigga just now realized how fast HipHop is fallin to shit. I mean don't get mean wrong, I love Tip and The Peoples,BUT NIGGA........you tryina tell me this is what HipHop's been missing?Lol so white kids sampling Dialated Peoples' tracks and spittin over a 90's beat is what the game's been missin huh?Well in that case lemme get my the hardest Caucasian comrad I know and let him sample a Biggie and or Tupac track ,lol so we can save the rap game.
Wait..too late Slim Shady made a career out of that shit huh?White folks been stealing nigga shit since the old days
. Elvis and Frank sample and remix a Nat King Cole song and that muhf***a is Gold(like platnum today),its a repeat of the same shit just with some "Milk" in it (i.e. Alicia Keys(Lauren Hill),AmyWhineHouse(ErykahBadu),HallieBerry(a slew female actors,but untill she left niggaz and showed them Breast---Oscar
feeling this track....loved him on his hood politics mix cds...Also loved him on Statik Selektahs cd....Hope he gets far seeing how most underground rappers don't get promoted the way they should be....
