Man, some of the most fun I’ve had performing in a long time was the the G.O.O.D. Music showcase. It was just exciting to be around so many talented people who just love what they do. It felt so good being around the guys and trippin’ out. It was real good to rock out with E again too! Shout outs to Kanye! G.O.O.D. music is definitely in the atmosphere!

  20. Wow Commz…

    That made me wish I lived in Texas. Stuff like this, is exactly what needs to be happening in hip-hop. A little less over the top prepackaged stuff, and back to what made it all work in the first place. It’s still good enough. :D

    By joelle on Mar 23, 2009

  22. enjoyed watching all of you. The guys playing in band with the visors on I like that. Erykah looked excellent in her silver pant and long braids. always great when you guys freestyle. In Dallas the three of you performing together. It was classic. Thanks
