  3. man people. you think that folks went to john coltrane and told him hurry up and put out music? davis? cook? ray charles? james brown? they released it when they were ready and if the fans supported them then they went and bought it.. nowadays cats just sit in front of a desk with mcdonalds greased fingers typing demanding shit from artists. did michaelangelo only work at demand / did da vinci only invent when demanded of?

  6. Somebody here is on Jay Elec’s nuts hard. To mention a rapper in the same breath as musical geniuses and legends like Ray Charles, John Coltrane, James Brown, etc. is putting the cart before the horse if I’ve ever seen it.

    Let Jay’s nuts loose long enough for him to even put out a cohesive release of some sort (not just a bunch of random ass tracks compiled together), then maybe 15-20 years down the line you can start mentioning him with the greats.

  7. @ipodded Well, actually, Michaelangelo and Da Vinci did do commissioned art, if that’s what you mean. When people asked them to sculpt or paint for currency, they did, in fact, do that shit.
