'cause her album seems like it's repping for Brick City!
Ma's album went brick selling a total of 75,000 copies. (If you think about it, that's 1,500 albums sold per state.)
Move over Knickerbockers! Ya'll aren't the only negros from NYC putting up bricks. If she sold a record for everytime someone saw her MySpace profile she'd be halfway gold by now.
Before there was a MF Doom, there was Kool Keith - the father of the off-beat style is 32 albums deep - way more than Jay-Z & LL Cool J combined. You may write of Kool Keith as a weirdo but you have to give him credit for some of his futuristic insight on why rap music in NYC is stuck...
The people that know me always ask me what's it like being so hated on. My reply, "I don't listen to most of them because the majority of them can't read anyway."
Really, it's true. I'd say only 10% of you actually read what I'm saying. The other 90% of you studder and stammer through the first few sentences, read that one line that sets you off and then you get all emotional.

"I think he knew something that he wasn't able to tell me," Lara Ramirez told The Daily News. "But that's up to him. That's his conscience. If he's a God man, like he swore to me he was on the phone, I think he'll do the right thing."
"Busta said he was there when it happened," Lara told The Daily News. "He said he would do everything in his power to get justice."
Busta also promised to pay for the funeral of Ramirez and said he would try to help provide for Ramirez's three children. What are funerals these days? About $4,000 - $25,000. He can make that money back doing a guest appearance.
Did you see that black guy get stomped out by four officers in St. Louis? It's shouldn't be shocking to you since this thing happens everyday in Amerikkka. Just a few weeks ago in Ohio, a 350 pound black man was beaten and killed on video. But back to the St. Louis beating...
