you've always come across as a bitter dude who projects his failings upon others....

but I have no wishes for anyone to fail... In fact I think I may have downloaded a compilation that was on your label...not sure..I'll have to check...but it was probably pretty good..

no ill will player... You took this so-called beef way way way too personal... lighten up my nigga... this a message board...Warren Coolidge don't give a fukk what you do.

best of luck with all that shit....

you wouldn't know who those guys were without it. Period.

yeah..but that's not how those specific artists I mentioned got heard...right today it's about what I called the Internet chittlin circuit....


The idea
>that they would have been nothing without your "chitlin

the reality is that those people are known because they took a very specific route....they aren't known becasue of college radio or no damn magazines....lol.. deal in the reality player

not that where breaking on the scene doing the type of music that Mayer and Dam or the stepkids did...stones throw been doing it for years no doubt...but regardless they are not a major and in recent years have put out new, current, not the rare re-issue type of stuff...and not hip hop/ rap music ..but Mayer and Dam and the stepkids are a new thing for them....

yep... Jose James ..Mario Biondi.... Gregory Porter.... They are gettin promoted on the internet chittlin circuit...

It has a presence on the Billboard charts... there

I'm not talking about older folks checking for established artists..I'm talking NEW music...

So again, the notion that jazz

New Jazz is being broken that way....not exclusively obviously.. (you keep acting like Warren Coolidge is speakin in absolutes) I'm talking about NEW artists ....BEFORE they hit the mainstream jazz magazines.
