thanks for everything you've done for hip-hop and for music overall.

don't expect okayplayer to be all wine and roses but if you can hang with the criticism you might enjoy the experience. it's a good way to interact with fans. most other artists can't hang though. it is tough, admittedly.

make sure you get some heat from some good producers for your next album! i dunno about "for free" but they should feel honored and priveledged to work with you. doesn't matter if they're big names or nobodies, just get some heat.
