NO KNOWS DOPE – OCTOBER 2009

…& ya just don’t stop… back like a bad dream like I never left…Ya kNOw what time it cuz you iz da faithful… why I am typing “ghett-right”? I have no idea.  Anyways, this one goes out to all the purists of sound & the respecognition of listening to an album from beginning to end. If a track had to much damn dead space @ the end of a track I took that batch out. If a song was dope as fuck in a mix that I loved I got that schitt up in this piece! You don’t play when it comes to your NKD & therefore I vow to never play either.

I send no apologies for this months edition of NKD. It is – what it is (male quote of the century) “of course my goons is astounding, niqqa I used the Auto-Tune™ because I’m clownin’!”
