City Battle? + DT MAP!!

Is it me or is DT kinda weird at the moment? I’ve been tied up with mixtapes and work stuff so I haven’t been on as much as I’d like, but something feels strange around here. I got to thinking, why isn’t anyone smiling? I had a little look and gradually found a few…

Are Emcees Insecure?

This morning I was reading some newspaper thing about hip hop and emcees, and the basic idea of the story was saying that emcees are typically insecure.

Wassup With the Girls on DT?

The girls on DT are killing the boys. Ok, there’s a lot less, but as an average, I say the girls have got the fire. How you feel about that, huh?
