Naledge Speaks on “New Chicago” T-Shirt Fiasco

The saga continues! Fresh off his European excursion with Double O; Naledge dropped by FSD to share his thoughts on the “New Chicago” T-Shirt debate that exploded here in the comments section over the past week or so.

Enough from me, I’ll let Naledge share his thoughts:

Honestly people need to realize that designers (as do all music listeners) have their bias and allegiances to certain artists. Drew from Enstrumental is actually my frat brother and we discussed collaborating so I'm not surprised my group was included on the shirt. From the overwhelming response, I do however, think the shirt is serving its actual purpose: to promote certain artists from Chicago that the designers feel represent the type of creative hip hop spirit that THEY appreciate. Still, these people also happen to be recognized by a lot of major industry people as helping to build the first legitimate "hip hop movement" in the city. All of the artists on the t-shirt have a huge respect for chicago hip hop in general and we work together and collaborate with one another with the thought that we will be more formidable as a collective front. The funny thing about all the comments i happened to see on the message boards of FSD is that cats are assuming that the designers Didn’t have an agenda in exposing artists that they want to see promoted as well as bringing attention to our city. The designers picked people from their OWN SOCIAL SCENE to promote. I'd have called Drew @ Enstrumental personally if I WASN’T on the shirt...lol

Check the rest after the jump.

As for where I stand in the city's scene, I don't really bother with it much anymore. Personally, I have been all around the world and I've earned the respect of a lot of people. I have fans all over the world that love the glimpse of Chicago I give them. Whenever I do shows, interviews or freestyles I mention Chicago because - like it or not- it’s where I am from and it is the environment that I owe MY STYLE to. It's just funny that what I do is so much more respected when I'm in London, Los Angeles or New York when I make it for Y'ALL (Chicagoans...lol). What's even funnier is that certain Chicago people feel the need to parade around with a hate campaign on certain local artists rather than just let them do them and you do you in choosing to not listen. The industry sees us all as one scene and the quicker we mobilize, the quicker they will take us seriously…When we hate and act like the city can't be diverse, we limit our potential. This is a big reason that the artists listed on the t-shirt are beginning to make waves - We rep Chicago hard and we all are open to aiding, respecting and collaborating with ANYONE dope in the city...not just people we grew up with...

Long story short, we need Mic terror's view of Chicago just as much as Bump, Yung Berg, Lupe, Cool Kids, Shawnna, Myself, Hollywood, Kanye, Rhymefest, Twista, Kid Sister, Mikkey, Molemen and countless others....I don’t think that I am holier than thou or have the mightiest voice in the GO, but I'll be damned if a motherfucker tells me that I can't rep where I am from if I choose to. Those who don’t like the shirt, should just choose to make their own and promote it or just ignore it if they don't like it. What is soo sad is I (and the other people on that shirt) rep soo hard for Chicago even when its not necessary...(I could probably still be successful without ever selling CD in Chicago again)..if you can't honor my music…you should at least respect my grind......because my success has only risen in the past 2 years when countless people (possibly YOU) counted me and my crew out saying we'd never make it...I think Cool Kids. Mano, Mic, Holt and Timbuktu probably feel some of the same adversity....but now it IS OUR time...so don’t get mad...get your weight up....maybe then a local designer will want you on a t-shirt that reps OUR city....

I agree with certain points. I agree we have to unify. I don't agree that we have to all be seen as one movement. the south had a movement but they got all kinds of diverse music in there.We can be different. Also, I respect the hipster thing but the cities I go to just don't really get it.I'm always asked by the people I associate with through business,"you like that cool kid thing you got goin in chicago?". I actually respect they grind but I'm not a fan of the music. You have to be real with yourself and realize that pretty much only the white people are eatin it up. But hey, they are the ones that buy albums. People need to lay off.Let these guys do them.We praise mainstream artists like 50 cent or jay z when they put together excellent marketing schemes to reach the people?Why are we hating on our own when they do it?In the end, if your grind is right you can get a movement going too.

"Get the fuck outta here!"

For real Boogz Im with you on that!!!! That is a
goddamn insult....YOU MOTHERFUCKERS HAVE BEEN SLEEP.....Chicago has ALWAYS had one of the most respected underground scenes for YEARS right next to the Minneapolis underground and Detroits underground (shout out Guilty Simpson, Black Milk and Elzhi)!!! FOR YEARS my niggas, you "Johnny come lately" ass niggas was too busy listening to the rest of the world to even know about it. Molemen, Vakill, Juice, Typical Cats, All Natural, Prime, Rhymefest, No ID, Fam Tree, Green Weedz, all of these niggas have been getting exposure and have collaborated with many well known and respected artists, have had national press like XXL and Source the whole gamut....and still are at it. So you brand new niggas who can barely rhyme right eat a dick. Naledge are you serious this nigga is not even a sick spitter...he just happens to be in the game when the real niggas are old flabby and sick or cant get a deal because the south is runnin circles on niggas. These new cats are so funny to me.

What the fuck dude on chalee....????

Wick said...

I'm so tired of all this ignorant talk about these artists...it's bad enough that we had a gang of people hating on them simply because they don't fit into the category of music/fashion that they like, but now we've got people saying shit like "realize that pretty much only the white people are eatin it up"

Are you serious? Are you that close-minded? People need to wake up and realize that just because their circle isn't feeling it, that doesn't mean everybody as a whole isn't either. We are the third biggest city in the nation, you think every single person feels the same way?

And to the comment saying that these artists don't even know who some of the underground artists are from Chicago that have been doing it for years, that's such a dumb statement IMO. They honor them and get honored by them as well.

I swear we have an inferiority complex in Chicago because we've been overlooked for so long. Now because dudes are coming up that don't fit some people's idea of "real," and they get bitter because it's not them or their camp that made it. If you would just realize that the more Chicago artists get exposure, the more opportunities will present themselves for other kinds or artists to blow.

I respect the push you got goin for yourselves but to say you all the first to create a movement in the chi is slap in the face to alot of the OG's I call my role models. Fuck outta here.I tried to be mute on this shit and I tried to play the middle but that was some buuuuuullshit.

to say hip hops first legitimate movement is kinda disrespectful...i hope he was jus sayin how everyone fucks with each other tho. im pretty sure thats what he was sayin. but the thing is...WHY SHOULD I BE COMPELLED TO LIKE SOME OF THESE NIGGAS!? jus cuz they from my city...its not no real beef..like i wanna shoot them..its jus that i dont fuck with it..plain and simple. its good to have ppl doin the all facets of hip hop..its keeps shit competitive and the art constantly building. but to tell me its hating is stupid. can u jus not like somethin...

Chicago dudes so quick to say hatin they and that. nooo nigga an example of hating would be seeing mano or nigel on a moped or some shit and say..."damn they aint even gotta Biturbo exhaust! bum ass niggas!" Thats hating...but saying hey "i personally think he not that good..and i dont fuck wit em..but i respect they grind" is NOT HATING..

YALL WANT PPL TO HATE...like u feed off that..which in itself is very self defeatist..but fuck it im bout to get out of summer class and hit the beach..bye bitches!

Every1 has valid points except for the FUCKING IDIOT who says he's going to rob Naledge. What are you serious? Kill yourself.

please tell u jokin it aint that serious..lol

but forreal tho u gotta be a fool to think chicago will ever be a big time label capital like nyc or la...besides location being off a coast...reality is most the talent has always been panned around those coast..and prolly always will be.

Why would you rob Naledge? Why do that? Dru Ha and Buckshot are doing a good job of it already!!

Chris said...

The biggest problem with the scene here is...these cats aren't always the easiest to work with...some of these cats aren't even personable. And one of them really can't spit. I'm not going to name any names...but I like the Cool Kids, I like Mic Terror...I like Kidz...I like their stuff...but just because I like their stuff, doesn't mean that I have to like everyone they associate with. Sometimes people just have to be normal and understand that you can't like everyone from your city...you can't.

smh
Noone wants to see Naledge(or anyone of them guys) get robbed. You lil niggas is too wreckless. I ain't going to say you e-beefin b/c this is Chicago and all you little bastards is crazy.Just get off that. Ain't no need to mobilize the little hooligans. I'm sure dude ain't mean it like that.Even though thats what he said.

mrmildsauce said...

lol.this is funny. people are soo ignorant. what you all dont see is what he is saying is that the media didnt give a flying fuck about our city until we really banded together. there is a new movement of people getting money and you ALL can be a part of it..if you choose.

You got the national guard about to invade chicago and all you niggas is talkin bout is a t-shirt. LOL! Simps. Fuck a hipster. When the invading army of state troopers and national guards hit the city these niggas still gonna be posin in they teddy bear sweaters like dude said yesterday.Why is this an issue?Let them do them.Remember Chris Cross.......remember how fast that shit came and went?Clothes can't make timeless music.Our forefathers(twista,traxster,crucial conflict,do or die,etc..... did though.)
We are still searching to recapture that magic.

naledge said...

First off I LOVE chicago hip hop!! :)

Secondly, you all are not very good at reading if you took away that I am unaware that chicago has a hip hop history..lol..Molemen? Memo (korey) is my first cousin!! He gave me my first beat and recorded my first demo!!! People really dont understand that I'm from 73rd and Jeffrey andnot the SUBURBS....These cats talk about backpack music but dont realize I GREW up on the chicago underground scene in hyde park and up north and idolized everything played WHPK when i was in grammar school...(BTW to 'anonymous', Black milk and Guilty Simpson are on MY ALBUM and very good friends of mine.lol)

Vakill, Juice, Fest, Twilite Tone and No ID have either already made records with me or approached me about doing records.

It also is very well documented that I respect all good music in our city. I am also probably the only person in the city who has a song with cool kids, fest, glc, bump J, Lupe, Pugz Atomz and Prime Meridian..It's a shame i even have to point this out...

And robbing me?? damn, thats a sad soul full of hatred to post that on the internet..

Boogz, i happen to really LIKE some of your beats..maybe one day you can overlook my pastelle polos and sell me a beat...you probably dont realize i have beat cds from you already through associates...aint u go to DeLaSalle like me?

AB, Why are they all soo angry?? lol do you guys want rock the bells tickets or something?

You really feelin yourself.

I feel you Naledge on what your saying, but on the real that comment was wrong "the first legitimate "hip hop movement" in the city"

I agree on mostly everything else you said and this coming from one of the biggest Chi hip hop heads you'll ever meet

just shouldn't have said that shit lol

RasRok said...

This is totally spiraling out of control...first the t-shirt incident, now we responding to someone who's jus responding to the first incident...

BOTTOM LINE....We aint all gotta make the same type of shit, we dont even really have to like each others music...these things would help the "movement" in the long term but the shit aint MANDATORY!

I PERSONALLY feel tho, that if a artist IS FROM the CITY , I support them in whatever instance i can...whether you do it by BUYING A TICKET...lol...DOWNLOADING a song to check out new material, SPREADING the word about a particular artist that you like....WHATEVER YOU DO....

all the hate is exactly that....HATE! if you been here for a while you should be used to it....

Yo Boogz, remember when you pushed ol girl in the pool with all her clothes on LOL? That was some funny shit!!! Euphonics, damn I looked up to yall cats.. Yall always had the baddest broads around. . . Shouts out to my big bro Mac!

And, cat's are not. . . . let me repeat ARE NOT hating... they're simply stating that the artist on the shirt don't speak for them... it's cool that they think we're wack... i'm just happy they know us at all... they coulda said "Who the fuc are these dudes!? I've never even heard of them"

This shit is funny. Naledge be humble. You received so many negative responses because your full of yourself.

Prolyfic said...

okay first off ...

from one of the most arrogant motherfuckers around this bitch: naledge IS humble

however i must ask you this question (naledge):

all i really wanna have is a better understanding for what it is that you was saying? i agreed with everything but that one line which seems to have people going ape shit. i just want a better understanding bcuz i know you and where you are from. I expect that from a mic terror, or a cool kids, or a novakane or a agacee because they wasnt there to actually KNOW! i even expect that from a new booty ass "i only rock on cdj's and people who use turntables are wack" ass "hey let's get together and catch up on old times" hip-hop reunion ass jay iLLa....LOL!

however you are FROM them days of the REAL CHICAGO HIP-HOP ERA ... you was at the
-euphonic parties
-the precious parties (even baby precious)
-the 3993/ill nature parties (yup that's us)
- the all city battles where people was ACTUALLY freestyling
- the every tues. and thur. at "the point"
- the nacrobats
- the akc's
- the sak's
- the ywca parties
- spending everyday at the "taste" battlin then walking over to navy pier after 9 to battle some more
- the nineteen hundred south michigan joints (yup i spelled it out)
- going up north to La piazza open mic (timbucks 1st gig, shout out to anacron)
---> YOU was there.

so i'm not mad cuz i think you just said it in a fashion where ppl misunderstood you , cuz i know just from me reading it, i'm kinda scratching my head.
and i'm doing that bcuz ANYONE
from boogz
to tim
to me
to pugz
to prime
to ras
to mano
to the party men eric malone and scratch rock master ERAC himself KNOWS that this ...

what we have now....

is very veRY vERY VERY FAR from the statement you made about being

"first legitimate "hip hop movement" in the city"

and another thing ... boogz naledge from our day. cut him some slack. he put in his dues, he just went away to school.

Rashad said...

Prolyfic fuck all of that "REAL CHICAGO ERA HIP-HOP" bullshit that shit aint what this shit is about. This aint about putting in work, thats what the problem with Chicago niggas is, they have some fantasy or romantic viewpoint about what this shit is. Who cares if you niggas was jaggin off at the Point and went to such and such party...that shit is NOT what hip-hop is really about ITS about skill and entertainment and thats it, although you niggas participated in all of that shit does not give you a pass, cuz I know niggas in the suburbs that can make beats better than you and rhyme 30 times better than Naledge....for real!!!Y'all niggas act like because you done a little something in the industry that you niggas are elite ALL of you all including you Prolyfic are a fuckin joke!!! Me I grew up in NY and Chi and I grew up on this shit, The Tunnel, The Muse, I know Nas, Cormega, Lakey, Ill Will, MC Shan, Screwball, Marley Marl all of them niggas, Prodigy when he lived in Hempstead I rocked with MC Serch, Pete Nice, KMD, (MF Doom to all young heads) so you cant get anymore hip-hop than that, my point is that shit dont matter cuz niggas need to stop with that elitist shit....STOP trying to make yourself better than the next man and do some good music...and who cares if you did a track on some signed rappers album...in New York all kinda niggas have been in and out of the music industry- producers and rappers and end up working at K-Mart and shit..so until you pushin a 745 and got 7 figures in the bank and your kids kids are straight shut the fuck up, because you are NOWHERE!!!I know niggas in NY that have had deal, after deal and been on magazine covers and are fuckin broke today, if it dont make dollars it dont make fuckin sense...so just chill with that elitist shit.

Listen up. Its Agacee from Ivy League - Gov name: Carl. I've been involved in this so-called hip-hop scene before people knew I rhymed. I used to tag 28 Stony, 71st, (Went to war with BUC by myself when they stole my tag "REPEL," Went to Chi-Rock Meetings, the Point, EUP parties, Jack & Jill, Precious, Kendwood homecomings, 3993, all of that stuff. Also the hood shit too, like Dolton Expo, 50 Yardline college night back in 98-2000. All the above.

You niggas posting Anonymous that are talking "tough" and "gangster" can ALL Choke. THat's LAME. You're gonna rob Nalege? LOSER. Everybody wanna be a goon squad member. You niggas probably became thugs in COLLEGE. What I like to call TOLL WAY THUGS = Turn ya hat soon as you pay that last toll (NIU Stand up)

Ivy League is FAR from hipsters. I myself have been apart of this scene for many years in some capacity, incase some of you guys don't know.

Bottom line, Chicago's never really had a strong hip-hop movement from a National standpoint. Not even now. ONLY Kanye in real life. Not even Lupe. So, yall can wine about the past niggas that had a "movement" or hate on today's "movement" but until we're recognized Nationally, everyone is on the SAME level.

Its a MILLION people in the city who haven't heard of us, Naledge, Mano, Vakill, Molemen, Juice, Rhymefest, whoever else you wanna name. Its fact. Ask the average teenager who anyone of these artist are, and no one would know. They're more concerned with Lil Wayne. HE has a movement. WHat Houston did was a movement, and what MIAMI is doing NOW is a movement!!

We all need to grind in this city. If you're from the south side, everyone on the West side should know your music and vice versa.

In close, KICK rocks with no shoes on!!

gerald walker said...

When are chicago artist, producers, etc. gonna start supportin one another? SIMPLY off the strength that they're from Chicago?

ESPECIALLY the ones dope with the beats & rhymes, and not "strictly" fashion or your record label or distribution situation. Chicago artist shouldn't have to bounce to Cali or NY to blow - we should be able to go downtown and have majors - and if not, niggas still should band together.

If you HATE all the artist on those t-shirts, so be it, but there's a correlating factor between all of them. They're not all in a "click" per se, but they all work together. And if one groups grind is consistent and that group makes it, quite naturally everyone else they closely work with comes up aslo. Now if EVERYONES grind in on point (in that tight circle) - everyone is going to blow!

Now just using those artist on the tee as an example...Chicago would have the industry locked up if it banded together - like atlanta did!

but we got way better shit...but fuck! what do i know!

I'm MOVING said...

A bunch of corny ass dudes making simple rhymes and simple beats for simple ass white people. Thats the easiest shit to do in the world. Stop actin like they actually grinding, that shit they doin aint hard. If I start wearing tight pants tomorrow and make abc rhymes and toy keyboard beats, all the white kids playing with momma and daddy money would love me too & I would be a sensation at shows and on the internet. Get these gay fucks outta here.I think i'm moving to NY cause this chi movement is too gay for me right now.

Novakane said...

Quick clarification: MIC TERROR I/WE are saying there is ANYTHING wrong with being a hipster. I'm simply stating I'm not one (by media/blog definition. hahaha) If you read any of the previous comments I made, I said I rocked HEAVY with everyone on the shirt. But just because I am not something doesnt mean I'm saying its wrong with being said something. I'm not short, I'm not Puerto Rican, I'm not deaf, I'm not hungry, etc. But if you are any of those its all good. Just wanted to throw that out there because I handle issues like a real man as opposed to letting things get outta hand (ie: these postings over a shirt). So simmer down young fella, we on your side. LOL!

Agacee from IVY LEAGUE said...

Mike T, please cool out! Sir, I don't think really anyone on the shirt is a hipster. Your definition of hipster may be what it is, but the one that most people use to diss the artists including you on the shirt is "tight pants gay niggas" are YOU that? NO, so that's who I'm addressing when I say WE are not hipsters. Wearing dope sneakers don't make you a hipster, or none of that other nonsense. And of course, Riverdale, and Harvey is more hood than a lot of the city areas, no one cares. TOo many people are getting merked these days PERIOD. Mike, WE (Ivy League) have done shows with EVERYONE on the shirt, so guess WHAT, I'm not dissing YALL. Did you read? Calm down dude. I'm dissing the CLOWNS hatin on the shirt. You don't like THOSE comments? Get real. I show you MUCH respect at every show you do. I've seen you battle YEARS ago. Nobody is frontin on YOU or Mano, Naledge, Holt, Boardroom, Buk, or the Cool Kidz. I like everybody for the most part, just haven't met the Cool Kids yet.

That's what it is. Oh, an Delano, you ARE LAME. Sensitive thugz yall all need hugs.

Oh, and no there isn't an age requirement to be a thug, but I'm speaking on guys who go down to lilly white college towns, and become Larry Hoover, or Jeff Fort overnight, when they could barely go outside back home, and got allowance everyweek, and there parents (both of them) chipped in to purchase them a car, and they live in nice houses, been middle class ALL their lives, but all of a sudden are TOUGH when they get to school, but have NO credibility back home and probably chose to be GD, because thats the EASIEST gang to say you're affiliated with, with the easiest handshake that they learned from looking out the window and having a cousin that was "hard" but didn't get jumped in, never received a violation, don't know lit, law, or whatever. Never went to sessions, STOP LYING!!!

(I said all of that which has NOTHING TO DO WITH ANYTHING) I think I'm going MAD

WOW! SIMPLY WOW! THE UNDERGROUND NIGGAS IS BEEFIN WITH THE PRODUCERS, ARTISTS WITH EACH OTHER AND EVERYBODY GOTTA BIG MOUTH. WE REALLY DO HATE EACH OTHER. WE REALLY ARE THE CITY OF HATE. WOW! NALEDGE, YOUR STATEMENT ABOUT A MOVEMENT IS TRUE ITS JUST THAT EVERYBODY DOES NOT ACCEPT IT AND IT HAS NOT SOLD TO PEOPLE. THE CITY IS SPLINTERED WITH NO DIRECTION, NO MOVERS AND SHAKERS, AND NO ONE WHO CARES TO MAKE IT HAPPEN FOR THE CITY. I DO NOT SEE NIGGAS MIXTAPES, I DO NOT SEE PEOPLE COME OUT TO THE CLUBS UNLESS ITS THEY OWN CLIQUE THROWING SOME SHIT. LETS BE REAL, COMMON HAD TO LEAVE TO GET ON AND GET BACK ON AND RESURFACE, KANYE HAD TO LEAVE, BERG LEFT, HOTSTYLES GOT DISCOVERED BY A DJ AT BLUE FLAME STRIP CLUB IN ATL WHO GAVE THE RECORD TO JOC WHO THEN PEEPED ON YOUTUBE. BUMP SIGNED AND GOT DROPPED THAT WAS A SIGN FROM THE JUMP OF HOW THE CITY IS. LUPE GOT ON THE WAY HE DID BECAUSE OF HIS PARTNERS AFFILIATION AND YOU SEE WHAT HAPPENED. YOU KNOW THE CITY HAS THIS CLICQUISH MENTALITY AND NO ONE FROM THAT HAS BEEN ABLE TO RISE OUT BECAUSE WE HAVE NO "BUSINESS(CEO-DAME DASH, PUFFY, SUGE, J PRINCE, JASON GETER) WHO WANTS TO FILL THAT ROLE AND TAKE IT TO THE MAJORS TO CAPITILIZE. THAT IS THE CENTRAL PROBLEM. RADIO DOES NOT EMBRACE AND IF THEY DO ITS ABOUT MONEY, SERIOUS MONEY THAT NO ONE HAS. YOU RAPPERS AND PRODUCERS WHO I SEE ON THE SCENE DO NOT CREATE YOURSELF AS A BRAND. YOU DONT. I SEE NO SHIRTS, NO POSTERS, ON A REGULAR BASIS, NO MIXTPAES AT THE CLUBS, NOTHING. WE ARE SO FAR BEHIND THE OTHER CITIES ITS A JOKE. AND NIGGAS KNOW WHAT THE FUCK I AM TALKING ABOUT. WE DO NOT SUPPORT ONE ANOTHER AT ALL AND WILL NEVER HAVE UNITY. TOO MANY OF YOU NIGGAS HOLD ON TO YESTERYEAR AND WAY BACK WHEN. YOU ALSO LIKE NEVER WAS, AND TO MANY NEVER CAN'T NIGGAS WHO CANNOT RAP WORTH SHIT AND COULD NOT COMPETE IN SONG MAKING AGAINST THE ARTISTS. YALL NIGGAS DONT CREATE MOVEMENTS. YALL CREATE CLIQUES. SO WITH BEING SAID, WORK TOGETHER. I KNOW MY MOVEMENT IS GAINING AND BUILDING DAY BY DAY, YEAR BY YEAR, AND IT WILL BBE RECOGNIZED AS SUCH. INFINITE HUSTLE ENT.

Agacee of Ivy League said...

Actually, we got on MTV because people voted us on. Actually 102,000 people voted on us here in chicago. That's how. No manager sent a press kit in, we didn't have a hook up, it is what it is.
Far as what yall feel about Tony Baines, listen to 3 of our songs, I'm the Man, Jamaican Carl, and Vanity. Not ONE (1) of these beats sound the same He's dope. He's not the only producer we deal with. Be easy.

I agree with one of you dudes comments about Chicago not doing things the right way, thats really what I said in an earlier comment. There's no REAL movement here in Chicago. Niggas ARE making moves, but thats about it. Chicago artist get industry credibility, but have NO REAL FANBASE except COOL KIDZ. They got a good fan buzz first.

Mike Terror, you're my dude. THERE's NO BEEF for all yall that really think there was. We have unity, if yall read carefully you would've seen that, but one of you guys can't spell to SAVE YOUR LIFE, which obviously means you CANT READ!!!! Chicago artists, including IVY LEAGUE need to grind MUCH harder in other areas like, getting the ENTIRE city to know who we are via VIRAL INTERNET VIDEOS, LEAKED MUSIC & MIXTAPES, GOING TO MORE CLUBS, COLLABORATING MORE. ITS TOTALLY TRUE.

WE SHOULD ALL BE DOING LIKE THE SOLDIERS AT WAR USED TO DO. THEY WERE WACK (MUSICALLY) SORRY!! BUT THEY HAD HUSTLE, AND PEOPLE KNEW WHO THEY WERE. THEY WEREN'T AFFRAID TO GET OUT IN THE STREETS WITH THOSE ORANGE T'S ON AND PROMOTE. IF THE TALENT WAS AS GOOD AS THE GRIND, THEY WOULD'VE BEEN PHENOMENAL.

BUT NONE OF US ARE DOING THAT AT ALL. WE WOULDN'T NEED RADIO PLAY IN OUR CITY IF WE DID THAT. BUT MOST ARTIST THINK THEY'RE TOO GOOD TO DO SOMETHING LIKE THAT.

I take all the criticism. Its a good thing. I don't feel like the people that hate on some of us are qualified enough to make a decision on our talent level because they may have only heard a few things, and maybe what they heard they didn't like. SO its up to US as artists to saturate the city with more info, music an etc., so they can make valid opinions. The haters make assumptions about a group of artists based off their opinions of 1 of the artists, and then thats the "BOX" they put us in. I can't really get mad, because thats just what people do. I was a little mad at some of these clowns on here, but now, not really. So, you all will see IVY LEAGUE grind harder. We take the CHALLENGE.

Ivy League deals with everyone. We have a song with Que Billa, V.I., Naledge, Boardroom, GLC, plenty others. Listen to our music, we're versatile. Rap Fast, slow, on any beat, its whatever. You think we're wack? Great!! Your mother thinks YOU're wack!!

BOSSFRESH said...

its just sad that you gotta leave to achieve when you live in huge market. the nightlife is wack because its the same promoters, certain djs claiming they KINGS OF THE MIDWEST,but do not have the power nor will to break new artists and records, its just fucked up. as a city we are so far behind its a shame.

I don't care what you'll say,Tony Baines is wack and need donations on new equipment cause he sounds the same.I c ya taking up 4 ya boy,but deep down inside you are tired of hearing that shit!
Nobody have the guts 2 man up and say shit!
Ivy League,BoaRdroom and Project Mayheim music all sound the same.
U stated that he's the only producer you'll use, Dat's WACK! Do u like the way all 3 groups sound alike? Obviously u do!
I knew it was a reason you'll got on MTV.I definitely knew it wasn't off of TALENT!

Yall niggas gettin mad over a RUN; the Cool Kids and all these other cats in this circle is having a RUN and we gotta respect that whether you dig the music or not. Yall acting like these niggas about to have a run like Jigga or Kanye or somebody.
These white kids need somewhere to go and party without the typical nigger violence, with music they can understand(simple words and simple beats)they cant dance on beat so the music gotta be simple and they cant wear what black people wear so they gotta wear what they wear. These dudes are supplying a demand until it's no longer demanded and it looks like this stuff is on it's last leg; I just hope they got a plan B so they wont fall off just as soon as they got popular.
Yall making possible uncalled for situations; If MIC T. see Prolyfic at a show is he gonna steal off him, if the IVY LEAGUE is doing a show is somebody gonna rush the stage and mess up their polo sweaters, are we finna see hipster rappers get stuck up every show, etc... Yall dudes stop it and go make money and fuck the shit outta these chicks. Too much going on to worry about a RUN.
Like the God AZ said:
"it's only a run, enjoy this here
Matter of fact you ain't done, enjoy this year
And uh it's only fair I make this clear
You could neva fuck wit me, so don't neva fuck wit me" - A to the motherfucking Z

Let 'em have they run, it's all good.

Wise up Niggas!!!!!

Trackstar the DJ said...

wow.

i seriously just spent 30 minutes of my life reading this. crazy. thing is: this goes on in EVERY city with a hip hop scene of any size...this is some human nature shit. due to the number of artists and the lack of room in the game, only a few artists in any scene will succeed, success brings jealousy, and jealousy brings irrational and unnecessary bullshit.

peace to Naledge and Andrew...

SEE HERES THE PROBLEM WIT CHI...For all the cats on the Tee plus Common and Ye Chicago is really a city for grimey individuals AND backpackers more than any other city..We got Hollywood Holt but then We got Mikkey Halsted not comparing them but contrasting their styles and upbringings and hoods...We also have Naledge but then we have Vi from the 100s its apples and oranges people no one is wack from the MCs i mention but it depends on what u like...We just have to realize Chicago got that shit for everyone! and once we know that we gonna be a dope ass city in hiphop mark my words
...Windy City World Wide Tour....cuz we got the acts we just need the unity......
