do you really think 3rd Rail benefits from _this kind_ of publicity? judging from this board, a lot of people who never knew him before now have animosity towards the guy. I can't see how he's gaining anything from this. and i seriously doubt he sat at home and said "How can I get fame? I know, I'll get into a beef with a guy who is pretty much universally known as a peaceful cat, who isn't really super popular, and then I'll ride that into fame and fortune." Huh?

Thoughtfully yours,

Spirit

Just listen, you will believe...

"I don't denounce writtens, but freestyling at its essence is improvising. It's spontaneous, uncut, mind, thought, travel, energy - all at the same time...the thing is to be at a peak where your freestyle sounds like your writtens and vice versa" - Aceyalone on freestyling (Rappages, Sept. 95)
