dear jd and family, sometimes we gotta say I love the haters..

[nubianmuslimah]

Once again I have to say it's not really the industry that is at fault. It's the consumers that are buying into the garbage that permeates the radio. It's not about putting things out cause the industry is gonna put out whatever we r buying. It seems to no longer be about the lyrics but the catchy beat behind some whack ass rhymes. I think JD is relevant but sometimes I feel that he isn't always on the tracks that have worthy lyrical content which to me defines true hip hop.

The music playing in the background while JD is talking makes this priceless. Real talk, though. People need to think before forming their opinions.
