You ain't never heard Pharoah Sanders until you've heard him on coke!
Yeah, last I heard he was hittin' the pipe pretty hard. very sad.
I didn't even know that. I was just making an ill-advised joke and sniffing coke and listening to spiritual jazz. Too bad about Sanders.
yeah...not good news.
How would one verify this information?
I guess if one spotted him while one was copping oneself?
I don't know--I find it a touch hard to believe; I've seen him perform a few times over the past decade, and he always lookied relatively fit. He's a bit far in life to pick up a habit like that or to have it dangerously accelerate.

Anyway, hope it's not true.
I just thought this a joke in reference to the cover pic. Hopefully it is just that.
4. It's way too easy for me to get y'all's panties in a wad. So I give the Rub dudes shit for catering to dufus coke crowds...big whoop.
Shied, while you might like to see yourself as some crafty provocateur tipping over sacred cows, everybody else sees you as just some jealous little dude when you behave like this.

Jessus christ it was a joke. I always thought that was a wierd flute/pipe lookin' thing on that cover. I am sorry for any misunderstanding. In fact it is so much of a joke and in such bad taste I thought it could only be taken as a joke.
Pharaoh is actually a really great dude I who I have had the pleasure of Djing for and he actually signed a few of my records. He just had a baby with an extended friend of the family. Great Dude.
Coke and Hip Hop is a new thing? Coke La Rock, Kurtis Blow, White Lines, just scratching the surface here.
I have said it for a long time DJ'ing is like being a chef. I will give the crowd some meat and potatoes. I will give them some dessert. I will sneak in some veggies. Stuff I think is good for them to hear. I have seen it many times that some chef's want to serve all veggies. This is only cool if you have a room full of vegetarians. The Rub and Mel serve well rounded meals.

You just go ahead and let me know the first time that Mel ever drops a song done by a local rap group originating from east of IH-35.

Not to get all in the middle of this love fest, but weren't you the one crowing (or excuse me, channelling your homegirl, crowing) about how great Mel was in comparison to DJ Ayres of The Rub crew?
So now Mel is no better? Just want to keep my scorecard straight.
And is the girl you were channeling the one who has a penchant for "Tasty Jazztronica"?
This is all so confusing. Neither my Berkeley High nor my Wall Street experience have prepared me for this.

Huh? I was referencing a comment by jlee saying the same cokey crowd would show up for the Rub or Pharoah Sanders. It's the venue, not the music.
no if you read further youd have seen that pharoah is not smoking crack. it was a joke gone wrong.

I never said that Mel was better than the Rub.
I just posted the thoughts/words of a woman that I hardly know...who also seems to suffer from a myopia that has her recognizing only certain rap artists from the ATX.

Well, that's where I'm confused then - as the boy said, you clearly cast yourself as a crafty provocateur... yet when you post someone else's words, I usually read that as an endorsement of those words. Whereas I guess I should read it as mere crafty provocateuration.

Yep, the whole world is a static set of givens that never change.
That being said, my overriding music opinions have remained pretty darned consistent for quite some time now.
Y'all just wind up projecting way more than y'all listen and understand.

= "I had a falling-out with she of the Tasty Slabs of Jazztronica"
the reason no ones playing the shit is because (1) it sucks and (2) mostly derivitive of BETTER mc's/groups from houston. sorry to have to break the news to ya.
I still don't understand what Harvey is trying to accomplish by constantly pimping his Texas rap fandom and fighting tooth-and-nail with Faux and crew, who have their own taste in music.
OK, OK...we surrender! We accept Z-Ro as our Supreme Leader and will bow in the direction of the holy county of Travis five times a day! My cup of sizzurp runneth over!
