Katz couldn't catch his artistry bcuz, as a NEW artist... in a group... El was trying to stick to that SV vibe... it got him on

I think the industry generally didn't wanna put out such positivity as slum village and the like. There should always be a 'slum village, d12, pharcyde, Dilla, Tribe, Citizen Kane, De La Soul, Madlib, MF DOOM,' place in hip hop. But its more profitable to sell something else than young dudes having musical fun. These dudes my favourite emcees possibly. Made me question the way I like rap. That simplicity and off the dome messing around can be the best thing ever, its so personal and light hearted fun.

I eventually realized that I read the schedule wrong. I sprinted from Greektown to the Renaissance. When I arrived, the area was packed, the musicians were pounding their instruments, and the stage was empty.
