>>>>If it weren't for you I don't think anyone outside of Chicago would know anything about this, other than the ones directly involved of course. But it was you posting shit here and on your site, not Talib until recently. Do you not see how dangerous this sort of shit this is? Not just for you and Talib but for hiphop in general. Word of advice. If you keep calling someone and they don't return your repeated calls, that usually means they don't want to talk to you. Get over it. The world doesn't end if someone disses you, and the world doesn't revolve around you or Chicago.<<<<<

Talib is a grown ass man - he was responding to someone calling him a bitch all over the internet - fighting fire with fire. The situation never would have gotten this far had the internet not been involved. Folks think this is 'just' the internet - but you are reaching thousands upon thousands of people when you send an email or post regarding an artist like Talib - because people spread the word.
It is dangerous for Hip Hop. Set your egos down and get back to business. I'd hate to see this escalate further.
