I came across a very distasteful article regarding Eminem and D12 recently. It looks like some uninformed people like to spread their nonsense on the net. I am going to address the hypocritical and stereotyped opinions mentioned in this unpleasant article very soon.
I believe in freedom of speech, but maybe some people would look more clever if they opened their mouths after being totally informed on a subject…stay tuned…there is a lot to discuss about ridiculous opinions spread by ignorant player haters…

Mr Cliffnote…stay tuned, floks:)

Identity theft is a delict that should be severely punished.
I have met many Eminem impersonators since I became a fan, but this one goes definitely too far.
Not only does this asshole claim to be Marshall Mathers, he also dares to steal photos from a young Eminem lookalike from Sweden, Patrick Wahlsten.
He fools his « victims », going that far to pretend the pics he stole are proof this is Eminem on the web cam.
However our poser is really unlucky I came across his profile, because I will expose his lies publicly.
You want some more proofs? Patrick Wahlsten is a friend of mine. He is featured on my Eminem dedicated website.
Ok, so now I will leave you in front of a choice:
-whether you keep this account and I will inform Patrick Wahlsten about this identity theft within 24 hours and you will take the risk of being sued. No worries: Patrick will win against the liar you are!
-an other option is left to you: cancel your account, motherfucker!
You impersonators want to be Eminem right? Walk a mile in his shoes then and take his pain too, bunch of assholes!
PS:lol the motherfucker changed his profile and set it private…he admitted being 14 years old…now I want him to cancel this account or he HAS to delete Patrick’s pics…you hear me, you worthless cunt???I have emailed Patrick today, so you know that Court action might be taken against you!!!

(KP International) – Eminem is putting the bad blood he has his with mother, Debbie Nelson, who suffers from terminal cancer, behind him and has reportedly decided to help cover her medical bills.
The Detroit-bred Eminem, aka Marshall Mathers, is already dealing with the death of his best friend, the rapper Proof, and his second divorce from estranged wife Kim Mathers.
The comfort of a boy’s mother may be just what Slim Shady needs to bring him out of the “world of hurt” his friends say he’s in.
“The nightmare Debbie has been going through with her cancer has put everything in perspective,” said a source close to the family, according to Britain’s Sun. “She is very weak and knows the prognosis is bleak. She is desperate to build bridges with her son and put things right before it’s too late. He has recently started helping her financially with her medical bills. They’ve spoken a few times on the phone and now she desperately hopes he will visit her.”
Nelson, who is in stage four of breast cancer, has medical bills totaling more than C$400,000.

British hip hop doesn’t exactly sound like American hip hop and that’s also what makes it interesting.
Most of you have probably heard of Mike Skinner and Dizzee Rascal. Today, I’d like to introduce you to an interesting underground emcee from London. His name? 16 Bars.
His name gives you a foretaste of what he is all about: 16 Bars is the kind of emcee who flows sick and who made a passion of rhyming.
As his song points it out, he is trying to get noticed. Trying To Get Noticed is introduced by some dynamic electric guitar sounds combined with some catchy beats. 16 Bars will communicate you his enthusiasm for the passion that makes him tick.
The artist from East London has a real nice flow delivery and he uses astute rhymes on his track.
Enjoy 16 Bars’ sick flow and his typical « made in the UK » flavor.
The Journey is another beautifully handled track. Built on keyboard and drum sounds, the rhythmic track will allow you to fully enjoy 16 Bars’ artistic qualities and to travel through his mind.
Nice lyrics and nice flow delivery introduce the listener into 16 Bars’ world. Open your ears and let him tell you about his life.
I recommend you The Journey, because the song is very melodic and will make you feel like a globe trotter on the run.
16 Bars is certainly an interesting artist who is worth your attention. Check him out here.

a taste of UK hip hop…i will review a British rapper, 16 Bars, for you very soon…stay tuned:)

A fellow fan sent me this little poem to honor Deshaun Holton’s memory…published with Jorja’s permission.
Living Proof Forever
All it takes is one disagreement
One wrong move in a fight
For the penny to drop
Like a shot in the night
Then a second of silence
Which cuts like a knife
Before all chaos descends
The end of a mans life
The effect is heartbreaking
He leaves his kids and a wife
And the worlds greatest rap group,
Is now down to five
Yet whenever I play his songs
He still seems alive
I just turn down the volume
And close shut my eyes
To see him rapping on stage
With his best friend by his side
Gone now, but living on
Through his vibe
What I’m trying to say is:
Toting guns ain’t clever
But surrender? Never!
Living Proof forever

Ondre Moore aka Swifty Mc Vay is back, with a beautiful piece of solo work: his Forest Fyres mixtape. This mixtape has been made in collaboration with Swifty’s fellow emcees from Runyon Ave, the Fyre Department.
Swifty might be less known as a solo artist by D12 fans, he is nevertheless an amazing lyrical bomber. Besides his work with his fellow D12 members inside of the group, Ondre Moore has some very interesting work at his active with Detroit underground emcees from Raw Collection.
His former Grenade Pins mixtape is an underground jewel I recommend to hip hop lovers.
Swifty ignites the fire by dropping lyrical bombs. You could barely stay indifferent in front of his music.
Ready for a crazy ride with the Chief of the Fyre Department? Let me introduce you into his mixtape.
I Don’t Say Nothing is built on some rhythmic drum and guitar sounds that will lead you into a hot atmosphere. Listen to the sirens in the background. Swifty’s flow unstoppable and the valuable emcee spits fire on the mic. The words are offensive and murderous, our man is a « walking felony ». Welcome to Swifty’s world.
It Ain’t Safe is introduced into a raw street killer atmosphere. Piano sounds, violins, gunshots and sirens will lead you into the scary atmosphere of the streets of 7 Mile. Face it: it ain’t safe where he comes from. Heartbeats alike, the beats will remind you of a thug running away from an imminent danger.
Act A Fool is a club song. The title says it all…madness, drinks, chicks and blunts to smoke…be ready to get krunk.
Be Like Me: let the drums and maracas lead you into a funny fighting atmosphere. Let the words spread like deadly weapons from Swifty’s mouth. Knives alike, they will stab you in an offensive manner. Nicely done.
Change is a beautiful and rhythmic track that will show the listener what Swifty is all about. Always true to himself, he and his crew won’t change.
Back Against The Wall : a soft chorus introduces the song and it will soon contrast with Swifty’s reps. Where would you go when your back is against the wall. Feel the danger and the thuggish atmosphere of a politically incorrect track. Swifty shows some beautiful skills .
The instrumentals are well chose and totally fit into the song.
Swifty attacks a political system that created a lot of injustice and misery in the hood. The darkness of the track is underlined by piano and keyboard sounds.
The 7th song Fucking Wit Us is written on a beautiful oriental background. Instrumentally rich , it will make you enjoy Swifty’s gun talk. Better not talk shit about Swifty and his D12 fellows. Like the other songs, the track is a lyrical jewel, that I highly recommend to the listeners.
Do Somem has the same somber style. Swifty is writing murder music and it is lyrically highly enjoyable. Hell raiser, the talented artist is determined to bring a lot of darkness into his song. Welcome to the Murda Mitten, the dirty D town. Enjoy Ondre Moore’s great talent in creating an unsafe and murderous atmosphere.
On most of the tracks, Swifty and his Fyre Department are dropping some pure heat.
Be sure: you all gonna remember him. Don’t miss Obie’s track Kill Me that is also part of Swifty’s mixtape.
My advice to all of you: go cop Swifty’s mixtape that is available on his official website. You won’t be disappointed.
The lyrical bomber in D12 has dropped an explosive mixtape. Each track is definitely worth a listen.
More info about Swifty, his Fyre Department and the Forest Fyres mixtape can be found here.

Ignorance. Yea, ignorance motivates most people to talk against rap and hip hop culture. Each time some ignorant and comfortable journalist opens his dirty mouth to spread his disrespect about a culture he is totally ignorant of, my heart is bleeding. Each time white America is making a mean statement about ghetto life, the truth seems to get buried very deep into a comfortable America’s conscience.
People don’t wanna hear the truth from the underprivileged’s mouth.
No matter how deep you bury the voice of the ghetto, it will scream from the innocent victim’s coffins. No way: you can’t stop the truth from marching on.
NWA legend Ice Cube raises his voice loudly and the truth comes out his mouth. To all of you who are spreading your ignorant lies about hood life, open up your ears.
The video is introduced by some powerful keyboard sounds and rhythmic tracks. Ice Cube points his finger at the American government as he introduces us into the LA ghetto.
George Bush wonders why thugs act the way they do?
« They give us guns and drugs
Then wonder why in the fuck we thugs
They wanna count the slugs
Then come around here and fuck with us (Uh huh)
They give us guns and drugs
Then wonder why in the fuck we thugs
They wanna count the slugs
Then come around here and fuck with us  »
Watch prisons, drug and gun traffics, watch the misery all around you. You probably think ghetto inhabitants are the animals? No. You Mr President are the real animal. You created the system:
« I’m from the land of the gang bang
Since I was little, ain’t a god damn thang changed
It’s the same ol same
Bush run shit like Sadaam Hussien
I cock and aim, clinically insane
To deal with this bullshit day to day
If I sell some yay or smoke some hay
You bitches wanna throw me up in pelican’s bay
Call me an animal up in the system
But who’s the animal that built this prison
Who’s the animal that invented lower living
The projects, thank god for Russell Simmons
Thank god for Sugarhill
I’m putting a different kind of steel up to my grill
Y’all know what it is, scared for your own kids
How these ghetto niggaz taken over showbiz »
You created a place where you isolated people and condemned them to a miserable life.
« Thugging » and hustling are ways of life you created. Why the hell do thugs act like thugs? Because you Mr Bush created horrible conditions of life in the ghetto where each day is a matter of survival. Ever thought about that, all of you who prompt to condemn people who live in the hood, their music and their culture?
Every day is a fight to survive in the jungle where you can get killed in no time:
« It’s boyz in the hood, it’s toys in the hood
Y’all wanna know why there’s noise in the hood
Cause there’s drugs in the hood, thugs in the hood
Nigga killed a crip and a blood in the hood (For real)
Cause when niggaz get tribal
It’s all about survival, nobody liable
I got caught by five-oh
Grandmama came to court with her bible
But when the judge hit the gavel
Now I’m too far from my family to travel (Fuck)
I just came unraveled »
Life is hard and blood get spilled in no time in the hood. Yes, every hood looks the same. The government created a disaster and is unable to handle it the right way.
Black people who are taken to Court pay their crimes harder than white people and are jailed in a inhuman system.
I have corresponded with a roommate from Arizona jail for three years and I could barely translate all the horror about jail I read in his letters.
Being black means « second zone citizen » to the American government. Being black means less chances to get a proper education in high schools. Being black means being discriminated against on a daily basis by the cops.
There is injustice everywhere and comfortable people would like to shut down the voice of the hood.
Corruption is everywhere. They put you in jail for years and it is so hard to get the right defense.
Damn) I can’t take the pressure
Pulled the fo-fo up out the dresser
Grabbed the weight up out the closet
Po-po coming but I’m scared to toss it
Y’all know what happened last time I lost it
Can’t tell you niggaz what the fuckin boss did
The game got a nigga exhausted
Gotta go for the plea bargain they offered
Twenty years for what?
Breaking these laws that’s so corrupt
Taking these halls and fillin ’em up
Some powder cake shit that’s about to erupt
Ay y’all, I’m about to be stuck
Until the year two thousand, what the fuck?
In the hood, don’t press your luck
Cause these motherfuckers will set you up, word up
You can’t stop the voice of the truth. You can’t stop hip hop soldiers from raising their voices and pointing a finger at you.
Hip hop culture is a powerful tool against racism, injustice and discrimination. People from all countries have joined it and are ready to fight for the truth to shine on.
Lyrically and instrumentally, Ice Cube’s song is a masterpiece. The video is beautifully handled from the beginning to the end.
The video ends up, showing all of them Compton legends who always had the courage to fight the system. Black men from the hood? Yes, but with an attitude.
Watch Why We Thugs here.

come up to you with some brand new hits…and always amaze you with their talent.
Ice Cube released a very good video, Why We Thugs…I will review it for you soon…stay tuned, folks:)
