...That all the hiphop now is on some retro shit. Everything sounds like "Supersonic" and every hook is just an old rap line with a Dj Screw twist on it. What happened to groups like Company Flow and Rebel Alliance (7L & Esoteric, Mr. Lif, Virtuoso etc...) that rhymed about the future and used technoligical references. I always get into debates about progression in music and these artists were way ahead of their time. Im not even gonna front, half that shit I don't even know what they're talkin about but the shit sounded so good that it made me want to find out what they were sayin. It definitley wasn't music for all you college drop-out heads that won't listen to something because it's too complicated. Everything in rap music today is simple and elementary, is it that big of a deal for 1 fuckin emcee out of 1000 to rap about something else or are muthafuckas that stupid to understand...make your mom proud and supeman your ignorant-ass out the room. Wordplay is frowned upon in the "music biz" because you can't be too complicated when you're rapping to some little 12 year old girl who knows nothing about hiphop. Im shoutin out all the emcees that don't give a shit about makin music for the masses and really focus on the artistry and creativity of their music. Don't worry people you'll catch up sooner or later. For now you can count on Kanye West to start sampling all of Daft Punks catalog so you can get your "we are the future" fix.

Company Flow - The Fire In Which You Burn

7L & Esoteric feat. Virtuoso

[Esoteric]

I assault the mic and rock it stompin out the microscopic Esoteric's like anthropic psychotics, semi-robotic/When I drop it, I launch a pencil through your central ventricle/Tear those tenticles, makin you a mental vegetable Acumenical, malpractice evil demi-Gods attack the baptist/Severin their prefix/My molecular, structure, raises the temperature/All praise the emperor, tarantula, nebular inhabitant/Esoteric's landed past extravagant/Established in between Giza's stone age and the Vatican/The Paladin, battlin crabs stabbin their abdomen Travellin through densities Devils witness the acumen

[Virtuoso]

Delay the ossification of vertebrae like hypocondro-genesis/Melt his pelvis to the shape of a shellfish/Hypophosphohic-hessially balanced/Lethal short limb, dwarfism, draining crimson plasmafrom cadavers through a catheter my methods baffle themedical profession by assessin bone density/without the use dual photon absorption geometry/My camraderie of biologically engineered MC's break you like pottery

[Chorus]

[E] Dichotomy you're God awful

[V] in Virtuoso's arteries

[E] The re-attached half

[V] and have to rap symbiotically[

[E] Psyionically communicating

[V] We're the first humans dating

[E] back to the second

[V] when the sun was first illuminating

[Chorus]

[Esoteric]

The Elder God'll strike troglodyte, God Awful Rocks the mic and stomps the likes of softer types/In archetypes of carbonite/Smuggled on a charter flight, contented with the ministry/Mastered on epiphany for Babylon ventriloquy/Rap assassin, master craftman, Sebastian/Blowin rappers up in tract compaction/My faction, calls upon the Esoteradactyl/Call me that, once you get your rap geared up for battle I travel, to Camelot, apply a hammer lock on Lancelot/Mandelbrot sets, we spot the process/The Loch Ness, monster, track taxidermist/I pack my furnace with a wack rapper's epidermis/Esoteric's dialogue's outlawed by demigods/The analog exposin the God's fraud/Your squad, I violate their primate mindstates/like fire drakes, breathing fire to annihilate/and violate, your complex Lexicon/I bring your death upon encephalons and teflon we place you on

[Virtuoso]

A medieval torture rack to contort your raps/To speak your mental thought will get you caught and hung from rafters/by your ligaments, suspended with your forehead dented/Tormented, claim you represented get your frame demented//Bloom like habiscus, consume the wind resistance like a discus/Lobotomize platoons I sodomize them with their biscuits/My syringes injure skull cavities/Savagely removin human brains by pullin gravity/to strange locations, I rearrange the Earth's rotation/Placin, theories of Copernicus in furnaces/Murderous rhymes find applied minds like shackles/Explosively my shrapnel makes your skin holy like chapels/Fracture faggots to fractals grow frail/I inhale through blowholes like a whale/You rob and steal I guard it like a grail/Impale plate mail, with eight nails/Make a nickel cadium to whip craniums like geraniums

...how in the hell do you think of this stuff!
