To me, there's nothing like my home turf. There might be better home turfs out there, but just knowing the spots, knowing the connects, knowing the little idiosyncrasies, etc. pays off way bigger for me than when I've gone to some fancier locale that I know relatively little about.

Yeah, I cosign the above statement... But from what I heard, B-more generally have a gang of ill records, so that helps.

Golden Oldies in Burien was the spot!
uhhh, nope, no records out here
The scene -- the lunatics, the cheese, the glamour, the chicks.
The industry -- it's my business.
The records -- most records COME FROM LA.
LA is the place to be. So many raers.
NO RECORDS IN SAN DIEGO, IT SUX
