"From open mics to solutions, i got a collage of answers, with a ten point program just like the black panthers.

1)first respect ureself as an artist. If u don't respect ureself, then ure rhymes is garbage.

2)Make sure ure crew is as tight as u. cuz when them (brothas) fallin off, they gonna bring u down too.

3)Understand the meanin of MC. the power to move the crowd like moses split the sea.

4)Know ure shit and don't ever be blunted. if u don't know what the words mean, then ure rhymes mean nothin.

5)Kick facts in the raps. and curse with clarity. whats a curse when language is emersed in vulgarity?

6)We gonna fix industrial politrix. shit, they made an art form outta ridin dicks.

7)We soldiers for God needin new recruits, so if u rhymin for the loot then u's a prostitute.

8)Acknowledge that u need food on ure plate. In order to say ure grace make sure ure business is straight.

9)We buildin black minds with intelligence. and when u freestyle keep the subject matter relevant.

10)Every MC grab a pen and write some concious lyrics to tell the children.
I'll say it again. Every MC find u a pen and write drop concious shit for our children.
