    , T is that DUDE!



    Made a real-world connection via-telephone this weekend, good talking with you hommie. Sounds like things are working out real well for you and I respect your work ethic and relentless hustle.



    Secret server to share raers on is definitely what's up, too! Hmmm...who else can we get to contribute?



    Noting but respect.

    yes indeed, Tsega is dude.

    he raises the bar for meeting random record collecting strangers in person!

    Tsega's a jolly good fellow. Met up with him when I was in town after dozens of recommendations to do so, and he lived up to the hype. Showed me and my girl around Hollywood, downed some shots, and traded a Vanguard Squad 45 for a cookie.

    That was one good cookie too!

    Damn--that's a great idea.

    all i asked him to do was to make it look like The Final Comedown poster/cover art... he made the rest happen...

    i wish i could show you the logo... i dont know how to do that though... its on a CD that i give to printers. Tsega is more than welcome to put that up if he still has it saved somewhere, but regardless he designed the logo and presented it to me in different formats, which i may add was very professional, and PRo and i chose the one we liked the best. anyway... it was money WELL SPENT.

    all my business goes to the King Ethiopian of Hollywood... holdin it down cuzzo...

    APPRECIATION!

    Homie is a great tour guide / host for out-of-towners and has his various creative games on loque.

    I love it when Tsega pulls out that sketchbook, like, "Let me show you a few things I've been working on..." He did the same thing with the Vanguard logo. Had 4 notebook pages of sketches. It's heartwarming to see people use pencils.



    The Justin CD cover reminds me of those Thump Records lowrider compilations you used to see all over the Bay. I doubt Tsega planned it, but I thought it was beautifully appropriate for Jinx, since he oozes lowrider loveliness.



    And the secret server jumpoff is going nuts. DocBreezy sent me some old rap videos, and I got some MC Breed Oakland shit together for him last night. I'm tryna get Hogg in on it, for some more bay shit. PM folls, let's get this shit!





    Tsega is my ace homie. I could write you a book, but I think you've all read it already, if not written it yourself.

    True, that would be the real bonus, but I was thinking "bonus" more along the lines of Justin throwing the poor kiddies a bone...

    Ya'll know I'm in the fan club.

    Congress is working on an Amendment to the constitution so that Tsega can be elected president. We better get going on that before Ethiopia snatches him for Emperor.

    after the wedding... so far only me and my old lady, tsega, drew (who recorded the whole thing), and my man rome whos doing the packaging know the all the titles...

    as far as rarity goes... not really... i was going to drop an unreleased Darondo track but decided that this isnt a competition but my wedding cd... though i did think really hard about it...

    as far you kids call raers...

    Least raer: Michael Jackson - Baby Be Mine

    Most raer: hmmm... i'd have to have Dante really tell me but it's between T&E Corp and Majestics...
