Self Emcee
15 year old MC from Elympia. Mixed feelings toward this young kid only motivate his style and elevate his deepness in each of his tracks. He has worked with underground emcees all across the globe. Some have come to love his music while some say his voice is to emotionless. He was quoted to say in an Underground Interview:
I realize that many cats dont understand the cool calm collective techniques in which I portray on my tracks, well its not that I dont have the emotion, it's just the way I rap, and express myself (laughs) but for real, cats talk all this an that about how its emotionless, then go an praise Guru, Binary Star, and MF Doom, (laughs again) Not dissing noone but its the truth alright? and thats just how I feel on it, Word Life''
This young kid is slowly workin on his first mixtape, with a release date not close to being set. on the issue of the mixtape Self says:
(Laughs) Yo, I'm still just relaxing, doin tracks when, I feel its the right time for to jump in with action''
He is working on a couple of songs with artists overseas. His lyrics have been called greatness by so many in his area and those international. He hopes to stay in the underground for thats the most realest to him. He freestyles on the subject of mainstream hip-hop:
It seems nowadays, that hip-hop is just a craze,
cats who praise, tracks that phaze this new millenium,
emcees spit the real, about bits we feel,
but then change styles, when this money hits the deal,
spit to kill, kids who real, try an split the skill,
it doesnt matter if your dope, cause your body sells,
the facts are wack to hip-hop, rock somebody else,
stop the thrills, mainstreams all about the men that win,
I remember when, cats would only rock for benjamins,
now its for applause, cars and awards,
and debatin on whats real an fake, is causin a war,
pause for the raw, these crews who lose there funk kid,
emcees choose to use the bunk shit, so whoda thunk it,
Boom bap beats, discrete these days, find me more,
everything sounded better back in ninety four,
Check it,
It seems nowadays, hip-hop has lost respect,
Ive squashed the cheques, so now its time to off there necks,
I offer bets, to my crew, like whos about to fall,
cock my head back, shout an call your mouth to stall,
spout to yall, your style is about clout thats all,
offer raw teachings from the master In his temple,
step correct or so come disaster in your mental,
my styles detrimental, not for mass appeal,
trash your skill, smash an kill your ass for real,
passed my thrill, lines somethin I bet hurt,
I dont battle or freestyle in online networks,
I collect dirt, grime which emcees thought was wack,
spot it black, contact the owner and start the track,
I was brought up phat, Nasty Nas in my eardrums,
Mathematik, tactics speratic when you hear some.
