>I can <BR>>see he doesn't want to educate <BR>>his "fans" on things, no disrespect <BR>>to him. Perhaps as an artist <BR>>he didn't want the responsibility of <BR>>the things he's facing at the <BR>>moment with letters such as Brokes, <BR>>and posts such as Marc's. <P>i'm not dickridin (i love how we toss that phrase around) and i'm not takin a side. but since when did it become the artists' job to educate the fans on the finer points of the industry? next, of course he doesn't want the responsibility. there's no reason he should HAVE to deal with that. his basic job, as a touring musician, is to play where he can for whoever wants to see him, and to give every audience a hell of a show. would it be nice if things were different? maybe. but they're not. the man's doin his best. he's not perfect, he's not god, he's actually no better than the rest of us, really. but he's no worse, and he's DEFINITELY not worse because he can't live up to OUR standards of what he should be. whatever, this whole argument has been stupid as fuck and i'm only making it worse.<P><a href="http://www.thehungersite.com">http://www.thehungersite.com<;/a><P>KRH-ONE (nine-nine-nine): the ORIGINAL and ONLY OkayKoolKeith<P>"if it wasnt for hip hop id probally die"<BR> -DaZeD<P>"Where the F*CK is my purse icon??????"
