So Alex is like.. the best hip hop, jungle DJ i know, but he and i are always digging up obscure materials. hey, thats what makes underground hip hop so sick. this is an actual text conversation between us. and this is how it goes down all the time between hip hop heads. we pass the music around through exposure. what you like, you like, and what you don't you don't threaten to kill your friends over if they play it again. and what you love... well ... it sounds/looks like this:

Me: MAN WTF!! THAT STUPID FOSTER SYLVERS MISDEMEANOR SAMPLE! WTF... i hate you!
