hey friends lets share!

here is a way to share files, music. this uses a gmail account as online storage. we all can upload to and download from it.

how it works:
download this program (for mac, thats all of you i think)
http://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/gdisk/gdisk/gDisk-0.6.1/gDisk-0.6.1.dmg?use_mirror=cdnetworks-us-1&ts=1278898252
install it and use this account: thegeeisme@gmail.com
ill email you the password

now you can automatically upload files to the account and download what someone else has uploaded. you can also login to the account normally, on another computer and play or download the files like ordinary attachments.

are you down?

the roots album and the big boi album are on there now for some incentive.

World Record Holders (Kanye West, GLC & Timmy G)

Once upon a time there was a Chicago music conglomerate known as Kon-Man Productions, which was represented by Hustle, a marketing and promotions company run by Don Crowley, John “Monopoly” Johnson and Happy Lewis. At the top of the Kon-Man productions pyramid, was a up-and-coming rapper/producer by the name of Kanye West. Kanye had recruited some of Chicago’s top talent to join him on his road to riches and quest for stardom. Producers such as Boogz, Arrowstar and Brian “All Day” Miller helped him on the production side, while emcees such as GLC, Mikkey, Rhymefest, Timmy G, Miss Criss, Shayla G and Really Doe held down microphone duties.

Out of this conglomerate, a small “group” was formed which featured Kanye himself, GLC, Timmy G and Arrowstar – and this group was called the Go Getters. The Go Getters recorded a handful of songs, did some promo shoots and made radio appearances – but an official album was never released.

Tracklist

1. World Record Holders (Intro)
2. GLC, Kanye West & Timmy G - World Record Holders
3. Kanye West - Nothin’s Gonna Stop Me
4. GLC & Timmy G - Dem Guys
5. Miss Criss, Kanye West & Shayla G - Ghetto Senorita
6. Kanye West, Mikkey Halsted & Miss Criss - All I Need (Produced by Brian “All Day” Miller)
7. Mikkey Halsted - Foolish Game (Produced by Brian “All Day” Miller)
8. GLC & Timmy G - No Luv
9. Kanye West, Rhymefest & Mikkey Halsted - Fight With The Best
10. Rhymefest & Kanye West - 10 In A Benz (Produced by Andy C)
11. Kanye West, Timmy G & GLC - Uh Oh
12. GLC, Timmy G & Kanye West - Mind Yo Business
13. Kanye West, GLC & Timmy G - Let Em In

A few of these tracks were released about 10 years ago via the World Record Holders album, which was more of a Kon-Man Productions compilation that also featured some completed Go Getters tracks. Also included on this album/mixtape were loose songs Kanye produced and completed songs from various Kon-Man artists.

Instead of trying to decipher what was an actual Go Getters song and what wasn’t, I just included who performed on each song.

Info Via Fake Shore Drive blog...

Stand out tracks:

"Fight With the Best"

"Nothing's Gonna Stop Me"

The instrumental for "Foolish Game" has also circulated a lot.

It's kinda cool to hear the birth of the more recognizable 'Kanye' sound. A lot of these tracks are trash but it is great context.

All is right in the world

MISS INFO SAID,

Last week I had a conversation with two old friends. But what was remarkable about this wasn’t the fact that they called, or even what we talked about….what really meant something is that, for the first time in over three years, these two guys were calling me together…

“Minya, it’s Jimmy….I’m sitting in the passenger seat of this car right now. I want you to talk to the driver real quick.”

“Ok, Jimmy.”

[brief pause] “What up, Min. It’s Cam…”

Yes!! Now we’re finally getting somewhere…Before I could start grilling them about the who/what/where/why/when….Jimmy made it very clear that he had to get something off his chest, with Cam right there…

Jim Jones said: “It’s 2010, and this is something I gotta get off my chest…You’ve known us from back when we didn’t have what we have now, so you remember, that above all, me and Cam, we still brothers. And we’re building on getting back on track but first, I apologize for being a rude brother, for saying things publicly without first trying to handle them privately. I apologize for not leading by example because what I didn’t realize at the time, I was venting but it wasn’t all about me. There were other people whose dreams were also part of this movement. So by not leading by example, they were left stranded too. The way I handled our business issues was with emotion, and it got totally f–ked up. That’s what selfishness does….”

read the rest after the jump

Jim Jones (cont.): “…I have demons that I’m learning to deal with. We’re all successful, me and Cam and Juelz, so we’re blessed. But that comes with responsibilities. I had complaints and I’m not backing away from the issues I had, but I’m just mad at how I handled them. The business of the Diplomats could have been fixed before. But by putting my emotions out in the public, it only made things worse. And of course, some of us became bitter about it. We had this luxurious life, but the rest of the family, they had slow down because of the ball I started rolling. I’d be pissed at me too…

But God works in mysterious ways…a couple people took vacations, and there’s a lane that’s wide open. What we built solo since Dipset grew apart, we can combine and make even stronger together. I needed to clear my conscious before we work on building a bigger and better movement. Plus, consider it fair warning to everyone else.”

When Cam got back on the phone, he was definitely more pragmatic and cautious with his words.

Cam’ron: “There’s nothing really Diplomats-related to show you yet. We all have our own obligations right now, our own projects. I have this Boss of All Bosses Pt. 2.5 mixtape with Vado and DJ Drama dropping soon. But yes, me and Jim have been speaking, we’re working out the mechanics of this, and looking at our options right now. If it makes sense, it can happen.”

Ok, so no speeding, Dipset fans. Let’s not call it a “reunion” just yet. But this is still progress, especially since the last time the subject came up.

Tracing the history of the Dipset split and the rollercoaster ride that followed, it always felt like the main problem was a communication disconnect. Two brothers who stopped talking to each other and just talked at one another. The lack of communication prompted Jimmy to air out his gripes about Cam. Third Diplomats member, Juelz tried to stay neutral but without dialogue he eventually walked off on his own. The public comments made Cam so disillusioned with his own crew that he walked away. Then everyone started moving dolo: alliances were made and concert appearances, and reactions followed. Time passed…and MTV reported that Cam and Jimmy spoke. But then Jimmy backed away. It was 2 steps forward, 3 steps back. But then last March, Jimmy offered another peace pipe to Cam on the Funk Flex Show.
“…if Cam is listening, maybe we can sit down and get some business together and…give the people what they want.”

And it’s true. Through it all, that is still what “the people” have always wanted. They want to see Killa Cam and Jim Jones, in a stretch limo with a hottub in the trunk, Juelz Santana on deck with a bandana on…all rhyming over a Kanye West or Just Blaze beat with a good sped-up sample; ) I don’t want it if its just a series of .wav files sent via AIM. I want 5H. But I’ll even take a couple guys who have grown out of 5H, having a couple drinks and reliving the struggle they came through, and enjoying the chemistry that they still share.

WOW ILL!

T Pain Drinks From his Grammy Award?



T Pain better treat this better. I don't think he will win another (See D.O.A.).

I like that idea. Also if you want to comment, instead of clicking the comment link, edit the post and add your comment at the bottom. That way everyone can see it instead of having to leave the page. I cant figure out how to display the comments normally.

This shit is really rainbow. No rainbow.
-Julian

New layout and standardization of color of youtube video players and font and size should probably happen soon too. Ill look in to the comments stuff.

I dont dislike the layout, but what you thinking? I want to express myself through using any color youtube player that I feel like. Also you gotta sign you name to the comment you leave. --jordan

Better default font I think. Also Jon needs a neck tatoo also there is this online entity know as (CDR Crack Distributors Radio.) Corntang Clan!!! Also I cant look at this shit-orange color we r going white or cream. -Julian

New rules?? When you make a post write a sentence. perhaps 2? Lets make this thing make a little more sense.
