I applaud Hov for making it on his own though…He stood on his own two…
A lot of these famous niggas…had to get on their kneepads with extra support…and give these record executives some of that Lewinsky special…to even be put on…

But for me, once I START writing something it just flows out. I don’t try to force multi syllable rhymes, they just flow out as such. maybe I’m just programmed that way…hardest problem I have is figuring out how to END my verses…endings are real important to me
But concepts and all that…I get a million of them a day…you can write about anything & make it ill…I do have problems remembering everything I think of though…Ive forgotten some of my illest shits
^
See, i would like to think that all avid Hip-Hop listeners have dabbled in writing, i mean it’s inevitable especially when you hear something that inspires the shit outta you…
So, with that being said, I’ve always had trouble on where to start and what to talk about but then again i was messing with writing it was back when Fab was flooding the streets with ridiculous metaphors, so being inspired by that naturally i would try an think of the dopest metaphor.
But you naturally grow as an individual as well as your ear for Hip-Hop, so i can’t say that i would have trouble with ideas today.
Who know’s, maybe I’ll start fuckin’ with it as a hobby or maybe not…

I got a file full of rhymes and I’m waiting for a mic.
If you love hip-hop, you should write. Point blank. Helps you better evaluate verses and so on, so forth.

Whatever happened to that emcee battle/NO benefit idea? I think Jay-Z would be scared. Lil’ Wayne should push for it that’s HIS hometown.
