True story, dude hops on BET, a station known for its promotion of mainstream music that is considered bad for the black community, to get exposure. Dude gets ethered, bodied, murked, killed, loses, beaten, defeated, [insert any thing thats deals with defeat here] by Posterboy and suddenly claims he has no interest in mainstream. He just using that as an excuse because he knows he isn't a marketable artist.

FYI, he's NEVER been interested in mainstream. He came up as an underground artist and he plans to stay that way. What would be the point of making and upholding an underground record label if he wasn't? He's been offered deal by labels such as Sony and Defjam, and he's been turning them down because they tried to control him.

I.T is too opinionated and strong for other mainstream artists to even handle.

you missed the entire point of kc's post. which was, if he's so uninterested and couldn't care less about the mainstream, why even bother going on BET? the silliest thing any artist "against" the mainstream could do would be to willingly go on BET or MTV. so i mean you guys can say how he doesn't care at allabout the mainstream all you want, but he still went on BET lol.

i like to listen to IT's stuff to hear what he has to say, but i don't enjoy listening to him for any extended amount of time. if someone said he had good flow, i'd ask what flow, because i don't even think he has any. his production sucks. and over all at some point i get tired of being yelled at in a very angry upset voice, so that's why i can't sit back and listen to him for an hour or anything. if i got to choose how stuff is, i would retire him from music and have just be a writer. reading his stuff is more enjoyable than listening to it to me.

Thx JC, thats exactly what I meant. Also,I agree I.T. just writing, perhaps for Lil Wayne, then he would really be the best rapper alive. _unsure.gif Ok, maybe I'm reaching with that one.
