Sooooooooooo its May 2011 and I'm in NYC producing some joints at the Engine Room for a few projects and I get the text that Chris Lighty's Bday party was later that night at Juliet... This was a big deal cus all the heavy hitters were gonna be there.. Im with one of my best friends who also Engineered a lot of my music (Grammy Nominated Engineer "Kal Dellaportas" Google him) and my east coast crew I roll with when out in NYC... We decide to go and get there early to beat the mayhem so we pull up and grab a table which happened to be super deep in the back corner.. (shady location but we had real estate, shouts to my nikka Kal Boogie) 
Anyways we settle in and the crowd starts coming through, mostly groupies and flashy nikkas i didnt know. Then notables started coming in like Busta, Uncle Murder, Q-tip, Maxwell, Marlon and Shawn Wayans, The Cataracs, etc. Im gettin juiced cus I haven't met some of these nikkas and its like a super star studded event. So my nikka Kal is like, we gotta move around and network like kings so we can make some new connections in the game..
We're already one Ciroc bottle in and the it starts getting loud and crazy in there, we look and its this nikka Puff shakin through the crowd like it was '94..
It was the first time I seen this nikka in person so it was like I was watching a good ass Saturday morning cartooon.. I was super juiced my nikkas.. Bodyguards lookin like Orlando Pace had babies with Kimbo Slice, pushin nikkas and bytches around like rag dolls making room for the OG.... Epic moment as he went straight for the mic and starts givin his shoutouts to Chris, the club and to everyone drinking Ciroc
Sooooo I'm mingling with everyone while getting hellllla fukked up and I've made my rounds shakin up with mostly everyone, gettin numbers, shootin the shyt having the time of my life... All of a sudden I start gettin shoved in the back HELLLLA HARD!! Im talking about a "We got Beef Shove" and I think I owe a nikka money, or there's a brawl going down or some shyt...
After all the smoke clears I look over and its gawd Drake moving through the crowd hella cool steppin up to his table... Im like, oh shyttt... cus this is the nikka that hasn't came out of the rotation since So Far Gone.. in the flesh..
My nikka Kal points over and says "There's Drake nigggaaa you gotta go holla at that nikka asap or else!!
Im hesistant cuz I dont wanna look like a hoe ass nikka but then again I can't pass up an opportunity to holla at one of the future GOATS in the game...
I figure out a plan to slither over there without looking like a groupie ass nikka.. Next to his table was production team "The Cataracs" (Produced Like a G6 and Bass Down Low) table and they were from the bay.. I ran up on them nikkas like AYYYYEEEE!!!! wuttuppp and introduced myself to them and the managers.. I'm from Sacramento so we like family/neighbors whatever so we had a bit of common ground... So I sit at their table and get settled..
Now I look back, and this nikka Drake is standing on the back of the table's bench, against the wall chillin, sippin real lowkey.... Im like, lemme holla at this nikka right now.. I take a huuuuge swig of the Patron bottle that was on the cataracs table, put it down, then tap this nikka on the leg..............
Drake bends down and I stick my hand out and say "Hey wussup man, I'm Hot Rod, I'm with......"
This nikka cuts me off hella fast and goes "I KNOW WHO YOU ARE, WUSSUP MY nikka!!"
I'm like "What?!!?"
He's like "Yeah, back in early 2000's you was fukkin with the same producers, you was fukkin with MRell, Con Artist and that whole crew" (Not that Kon Artist btw)
Im dying like wtffff, the GOAT knows of me?? This shyt is crazy! That surreal shyt started kicking in then this nikka said this.....
He goes, "Mannnnnnnnnn I used to bump your tapes when you were "Young Rod" my nikka, me and Boi1da used to sit in the car and listen to your shyt for hours man your shyt was crazy!!"
At this moment I just look this nikka in the eyes and literally said "SHUT THE fukk UP nikkaAAAA YOU PLAYIN WITH MY EMOTIONS
"
He was like DEAD ASS ASK BOI1DA... I about died and was trippinnnn cuz im drunk choppin it up with Drake, who was telling me at one point he thought I was amazing..
I cant really get my point across on how i felt but it was a moment where I was just there like wtfff......... I caught myself and gathered my composure and said wow thanks lol
I took it all in and told him he was Jesus and we both laughed.. We took a flick and proceeded to just chill at the same table randomly talkin bout shyt, checkin out bytches and just overall kickin it at the party...
P.S.
SOOOOOOO IN CLOSING...This nikka started hollerin at this one bytch and coincidentally I was hollerin at the friend earlier.. Looked like he was closin the deal so I turnt up and tried to lock in the friend... I was probably spittin that drunk, 2 minute warning, down by 24 points game so it wasnt working.
We exchanged contact info dapped up and I had to dip to find the rest of my nikkas so we could settle up and make our final rounds.... Im sure this was typed kinda shady but once again its too long to proofread so I hope i got the point across again..
THIS was a night for the history books... I am no longer under contract with the unit so I'm plotting my next move. Would love to work with Drake and the OVO sound but we'll see... Craaaazy night though... R.I.P. Chris Lighty

I done seen it all. Drake considered a GOAT? The rap game is on it's last leg.

The lack of album sales and the fact that no rapper has gone gold besides Iggy this year and it's mid October is proof that it's on it's last legs. This could very well be the first year that no black rap artist has gone gold.
What does oblivion mean? And how can I fade into it? Also where does the name Mowgli derive from? I feel like I've heard it somewhere before.
Can you enlighten me? That would be amazing... I can tell you're a good guy
