Did you hear about my birthday party?
My best friends got together and had
KRS-ONE, along with some of the othr best MCs
from around the world come to Hartford, CT
for one unforgettable weekend.
They booked venues, got 'em packed, and took photos
while I performed and sold my brand new merchandise.
A mob of them even tried to get me to release a new album
(we'll get back to that in a second)!
Anyway, it's important for you to know about
my birthday (I'll be posting pics throughout the week),
because April is national poetry month.
So it seems true that some people are Born Poets! AND
it makes sense that so many people have come to know me...
as the RAPOET!
I'm not saying you HAVE to be born in April to be a
born poet. And I'm not arguing that you can't make someone
into the most successful poet in the world either.
But you better believe I'm pasionate about what I'm about to
tell you right now - and I know it's going to offend certain
types of people. But here's the truth...
Some people have gotten too obsessed with making successful MCs
(which are the poets of Hip-Hop culture) out of people who
are so far from being MCs that they actually insult anyone
who loves lyricism... LITERALLY. I don't just mean they sound
horrible, I mean they will verbally tell you that anyone who
raps better than them isn't a real MC!
I may be better than the average MC, and even better than the
above average MC, but the majority of people who you try
to talk to, will not even have a clue until more
people are listening, buzzing about, and - of course - buying
this music.
So Congratulations to everyone who's been asking me to release an album. It's the last day of National Poetry Month - It's time - I need YOUR HELP!
