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.

This song first appeared on the Independent Chart on January 14, 2008

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!

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

Termanology would get mixed into my set any day of the week. This defines Hip-Hop. DJ Krunk, what country do you mix in?

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.

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!

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
