    I'm not sure what percentages my opinion would work out to...

    75/25 old/white???? Probably more like 60/40.

    Nah. I have pretty much got Kendrick Lamar and Vince Staples' new albums on permanent replay on my IPod.

    I like a Blueseum type groove behind poetry but never could latch onto the hip hop drum machine me, me and more me stuff.

    My feeling about music is pretty much what Freddie Mercury said when someone asked him how he could mix heavy metal with gay disco vamps on the same album. "Oh. It's all good dear!" ; )

    Not too bad for a first song. Nice voice.

    It's a good thing he has basketball to fall back on... until he can write some hits anyway. :smiley-dj:

    Correction: That's "Mumford and SUCKS!"

    I know what you're getting at, Riverman... you're just not listening to the 'right' type of hip-hip! Good hip-hop can be REALLY hard to find these days, but it IS out there!

    It's not a bad song but it is not really good enough to be worth discussing if he was not a professional basketball player. At least he is better than shaq.

    exactly my thoughts. those slow moody numbers are cool but it makes it hard to get a good feel of how the artist can actually flow.

    Old people think hash is something that you have with eggs and tags are what comes on the clothes at Target. I speak with authority on this.

    There were older (quite) posts somewhere (it was the old boards & not this 1) where ppl were talking about giving him a nickname when he was 1st drafted & I was the 1st to suggest it :wink: Every1 came to the conclusion that calling him Dame was the way to go bc he said he liked it/was already using it & there's no sense in giving him another nickname (I & I think some other ppl said that he might need another nickname bc NOW he's in the NBA; new stage... new name:tongue2:) if he already had 1 he liked.
