I don't care what you do, stay for all I care lol. It really doesn't bother me in the slightest lol. I'm not irritated at all, the trolls helped in the thread along with all the positive, intelligent dope music discussion, trolls played their purpose too. It's completely up to you what you do...


I'll take that as a yes then. I hope this thread reaches 1000 posts, I know I played my part :pachaha:

It will, you did play a small part :salute:

K-Rino clearly and patently ....



All or most trolls gone now, so hopefully we can have an interesting substantive discussion...

P.S: Anyone know, did this sample Thundercats? Lol. @PlutoEighth ?

Put it on 50 posts so you can be deprogrammed and unplugged from the Matrix

I'm not sure what you are trying to imply. I think you are just hopping on a bandwagon rather than having something substantive to say. Are you trying to say there is no propaganda, manipulation of brainwashing in society?. Also what about K-Rino's songs not about this?

Like this for instance...



I don't see the reason for the hate/trolling lol, do you even like Hip Hop, or respect it? If so why are you dissing and disrespecting artists who have dedicated over 30 years to the culture and music and given so much to Hip Hop? I don't get that, just to get some daps from fellow trolls on the internet? Really that pathetic and desperate for attention? Some real sellout shyt, I don't understand that mentality....

Obviously I DON'T need to be Deprogrammed cause I'm not like that lol. Music critiques and discussion are fine, but I don't get why so many diss, everyone real in Hip Hop respects K-Rino, no-one disses him like that besides the board. There's posters that I don't like on here too, like that fool IR (me and many others lol) but I'm not gonna diss Pac cause he's a Pac fan, or even Twista cause he's a Twista fan simply because of that.

That shyt is dope, I always liked the melodic flow in Life And Death too. I'm listening now to some of the first K-Rino tracks I ever heard.

You Ain't Real







From what I gather the 98 self titled album had some label issues that accompanied it, what tracks were on that that were removed?

These are a few others I remember hearing first...





I wonder how others first heard him.

I remember his Eminem diss too cause that created a buzz also, I really felt that at the time and still do, played that to a lot of people even at the time, I was pretty much only a kid at that point too... but I was pleased someone stood up, and the content was right...

Deprogrammed, Longevity, House Of The Enemy. But every track is brilliant. I will check that thread out regularly.

Yeah, Longevity was an amazing song, really was...

The knowledge dropped was ILL...

The whole album was a conceptual masterpiece at an extremely high level. I'm already eagerly anticipating the next project.



[Intro]
See you in a million years
Longevity
I see you in a million years, that's if you're still here

[Verse 1]
Say, some of y'all just are arriving
So I'm obligated to familiarize you with where I've been
Subscribing to the sacrifice is usually the problem
Surviving and even thriving in the game is so conniving
The first thing that you should do, is make sure you
Study the history of artists who came before you
Their successes, their failures
See, there's a lesson in every message they tell you, don't let the stresses derail you
The next phase essentially, is finding your identity in the industry
Be patient cause it don't happen instantly
It takes a lot of long nights
Make sure that when you song write, the words correspond with your own life
Then you might appeal to all ages
You gotta maintain the same flame when the game evolves and changes
You can last or be a one-hit wonder
Make the choice between being a sprinter or a marathon runner

[Hook]

Longevity
It ain't about what people seeing now, it's about how long will you be around
Never mind what you just made, will you be relevant in a decade?
Longevity
The game will chew you up and spit you out, don't be that cat that folks forget about
Not everybody in this game is meant, try not to be the dude who came and went

[Verse 2]
Definition of longevity
Means that folks will be steadily bumping you heavily even when you're seventy
Establishing an eternal legacy, artistic equity
But long careers is what the average artist never see
Mastery of musical gospel
You don't want to be that hot dude today and next year people forgot you
The gift that God gave you keep feeding it
Increasing your deepness by reading and challenging your level and exceeding it
Accomplishments you had, gotta put those in the past
Never being satisfied with what you did last
No relaxing or chilling even after the checks cash
The only thing that matters right now is the next task
When they say your new project's your best, get mad
Then go back in the lab and surpass yourself fast
The key is to reap your skill and still keep it real
You last forever when you drop music that people feel

[Hook]

[Verse 3]
Claiming the real state that you can drive in the earth
Do insert yourself and multiply your body at work
When you're writing to save people with intelligent flows
The more you connect with them man your relevance grows
Yeah we want cash, but it's bigger than having some ends
You gotta be able to see past the fads and the trends
In the conversations of greats Imma consistently be
I want my fans' grandchildren to be listening to me
From my new music all the way to back in the days
And in my old age let them wheel me out on the stage
I want my hand to write every great creation it can
I thank God for the many generations I span
Last but not least, you doing good business, you maintain
Nothing runs you out the game as quick as having a bad name
If you tough enough to fight through the failures you get stronger
Be the people what you want them to be, you'll stay longer

[Hook]

"The big bread cutta
What I utta could make the feds stutta
Nanodiamond skullplate
Meteorite head butta "

:whew:


Top 4 songs off the maven with Multi Reflex, The Maven and Tower of Sadness





"What are the causes in the seas of depression?
Whos ultimately affected?
These are the questions
We all stand guilty and in need of a blessin
So we weave through the scriptures to read as a reference
Foundations were laid years ago etched in
Neglectin' rejection sent you in that direction
Your heart was exposed with no type of protection
The innocence you displayed was met with aggression"

"Everyday the hurt builds, deeper and deeper it drills
Nobody is understandin' so I keep it concealed
All these artificial people say they keepin it real
False happiness and alcohol, reefer and pills"

"They sit watchin me closely, hesitant to approach me
Hopin that I let a professional diagnose me
Instead of communicatin they wait to sedate me
Makin me deflate to unsafely medicate me
And turn me to a vegetable
with antidepressents bro, a cocktail of Paxil, Zoloft and Lexapro
The Prozac and Cymbalta make my moods alta
not only mentally but my physical started to falta
So hard, Oh lawd, no money no job, won't starve, options
Sell dope, go rob
Cant seem to get no
Peace of mind it's so
Chaotic and frustratin, borderline schizo
Deal with it, get help
Must make a fast choice
Conversations in my head
good voice bad voice
"Dont jump, jump now"
Somebody come help me
I just with the me in my own head would accept me"

The album was great, I gave it a lot of play. I can't count how many times I've played it. The Maven is dope and a really sick story.

I'm Not is dope, some humor, raw,

Imperfect was amazing, really deep.

Obstacles was touching.

Multi Reflex he merked that shyt, classic K lyrical shyt...

Tower Of Sadness was dope...

"I'm rehabbed as a murderer don't make me have a flashback"

Cyhme Scene weren't no joke either lol.

I Just Wanna Know was brilliant.

Gone Away was deep...

No Stress, love that beat, love that song, a really nice vibe to that.

Struggle Addition is also deep and a great song.

It's probably at least a 4.5 mic album to me.

K-Rino's quality of his albums is incredible, that's probably why I have him so high, he's got many albums that are between 4.5-5 mics to me.

He's got a dope sense of humour and a lot of style and charisma in his music too, a lot of wit, has a lot of witty lines or humorous lines littered throughout, I think it's his diversity also that puts him over the top, he can do nearly anything and make it work, even flows wise, he can still spit super fast or rap in different styles. Very dope, it's impossible to put him in a box cause he's always innovating in some way, whether it be conceptually or story wise or whatever.

Tower Of Sadness is very dope, beat is ill too, like that sample.
