Word, I mean you don't have to be Robo-Rapper Metaphor Rakim 3000 but I mean dam, that dude was pretty bad. The dude coudn't even stay in the pocket when he rhymed. Pretty much any Visionaries stuff is terrible. I don't even check for that shit.
Actually there was an old LMNO record I liked because he was kicking rhymes about "don't go to school" or something like that, and being the 1.98 GPA student I was in High School I was like "ROIGHT ON! DAWG!".

Put it this way, "Blessings" had a dope beat.
Blessings was cool, LMNO had one joint on a battle axe comp, about skateboarding that I thought was dope. There is also some promo only clear vinyl 7" that LRG put out with LMNO and Key Kool rapping about LRG clothes
but luckily it has an instrumental on the flip, the beat by Rhettmatic
ANYONE HAVE A SENDABLE VERSION OF THE CASUAL/SAAFIR BATTLE??????????
Is O-Dub in the place??? He used to have a line on a video version of the battle. Come to think of it I'd like to peep that myself.
Saafir To Tajai: The fresh prince of Bel Air with a slang dictionary/you used to play pictionary with mom and dad/You grew up with kids named Buffy and Brad/you used to talk like "that's rad let's go surfing."
Tajai's reponse (paraphrased): Uhhhh...you used to tell me how you used to like to hit women...dude, that's disgusting.

What pre-"boxcar session" tracks are there with Saafir?
I need more info about this!!! > "Runnin from 5-0" off of the late Plan B's "Quest 4 Survival" 12". What label/year? etc. I need to track it down Or if anyone has an extra copy for trade, let me know.
I'll upload these when I get the chance: - the two "Crawl Before You Ball" 12"s - a few Golden state warriors tracks - Digital Underground "No nose job" 12" - BUMS "Take A Look Around / Rain" 12" - Ras Kass, Ahmad, Saafir "Come widdit" 12"
I think there might be some Hobo/Hieroglyphics freestyles/battles on the Wake Up Show albums.... I'll check later...
1) I need "Running From 5-0". Why the fuck has no one bootlegged that shit yet? I'm saying. You can hear it on the "Golden State of Mind" Mix-CD by DJ Serg from a few years back. He gave his copy to Riddim though - amazing. Just GAVE IT AWAY.
2) JP - I had a copy of "Rock the Show" on white label, no one wanted it! I traded it back to Riddim. He might still have it.
3) I don't have a video version of the battle. I do have the entire thing on CD. I briefly contemplated booting it and then realized that I'd be asking for a beatdown from all the artists involved so I've quietly been making dubs for friends and that's about it. If people want one, hit me up on email (not PM) and I'll see what I can do.

Some hot joints on there, but aside from Eye-Que (and Saafir obviously), I could never really get with the other Hobos 100%.
Wasnt he on a Digital Underground song?
He was on a few songs off The Body-Hat Syndrome.
