This group is....Slum Village...When I got the news of this I(Pedro Parker) headed down to the basement of the OMGP WTF offices to talk to the profound and sometime cocky Multi-Man tha Skipso..On this day as I entered the basement. I found Multi in a somber like state eating Plantanos and drinking Brugal...So I thought why not just come out with the questions..This is a following account of how it went..PP: Yo Mult what's up? MM: Oh its you again. PP: Did you hear about the break up of Slum Village? MM: WTF? WTF? What are you talking about yo? S Villa broke up. PP: Yeah it was announced that this is probably their last cd. MM: Ahhhh hell naw, man that group is one of dopest groups of all time. The D(Detroit) is known for having some of illest emcees in hip-hop. Thanks for making my bad day go worst. PP: Sorry to break the news to you man MM: Well after hearing this...Let the door nob hit you where the GOD LAWD SPLITCHA!!! So with that said along with a couple of choice spanish words. The interview was ova..

Freestyle

Just the other day, we at the offices of the OMGP WTF blog had a heated argument in the offices about free-styling in regards to being a emcee. Once the crazy guy from the basement Multi-Man tha Skipso walked in the offices he had a few choice words about how important it is and how it effects the climate in hip-hop today. The following are excerpts from Multi-Man Tha Skipso's tirade in our offices. "So who believes free-styling is some bull or doesn't make sense? Raise your hand!!! You two guys over there with your hands raised, you two are fired, pack ya ish and get the hell out of here. Yeah Gash gave me that authority. Anybody else feel the the same. Okay, its the thinking that those to clowns have that has hip-hop in the stupid commercial stuck state that it is in now. As a emcee, I feel...Hold up I know that free-styling is what every emcee needs to be able to do. It makes interviews more interesting, it makes the process of song writing more intricate also. Imagine you listening to the radio on your way home in traffic and you hear your favorite rapper, rapping off the top of his head(free-Styling) about being stuck in traffic. See this is true talent and what music should be about in the first place. I once seen a drummer from Tha F.A.C.U.L.T.Y. of Nu High( a local band) go head to head with there lead emcee on the mic. As I looked at the crowd in attendance I understood why this art form was so important and so lost. The emcee and drummer switched patterns so many times that the audience experience 5 songs in 5 minutes without even knowing it. So I say this to all of you who feel that free-styling isn't important. Why spend money to see a show and hear exactly what u have on the cd in your car, when you can spend money to see a show and hear additional music. Real emcees freestyle and hip-hop needs it more on a daily basis". With that said and seeing the passion that Multi, expressed I now understood where he comes from with his sometimes unrealistic demands for perfection at this blog offices. Pedro Parker signing off...Oh yeah here is a freestyle from Sean Price..Salute..........

Duck Down Music 15 Year Video Montage

Today we at OMGP WTF want to salute Duck Down Records for doing their thing for 15 years. This group has brought some of the best hip-hop gems ever to your local college stations and personal i-pod players. SO after a game of paper scissors rock Pedro Parker lost and had to do what no one else in the office wanted to do. I Pedro Parker was force to go to the basement of our office's and interview MultiManthaskipso. I found Mult with his ever present mask on smoking a black and listening to music from AHZ the New Face of Sound and Tha F.A.C.U.L.T.Y. of Nu High. After being asked what the hell I was doing here and responding with, "I just wanted to interview you Multi in regards to Duck Down Records being in the game 15 years" Multi nodded his head and we conducted the interview that follows. PP: What does Duck Down Records mean to you Mult? MM: "Duck Down Records means alot to me famila, its like Banana Fruit Cake!!! ummmmmmm Animal!!!, ummmmmmmm Wowwwwwwwwwwwwww!!! Their company and label of artist are able to merge the essence of hip-hop with different styles and still stay true to what hip-hop is meant to sound like. I can't listen to a Boot Camp Record without a hoodie, Timbs or at least a NY Yankees fitted on. Its like Brooklyn's dopest rappers with a few outsiders that make hip-hop for me and you. Matter of fact, get the hell out of my basement so I can listen to that Duck Down Records shit buddy. Oh yeah by the way, your girl looks like she has snot in the box. Now beat it!!!!" PP: So after being chased out of the basement by this crazed Dominican with a Brugal bottle, I will just say this..Duck Down Records represent hip-hop, enjoy the video montage..If u missed the show, don't feel bad,I did too. This is Pedro Parker signing off...Uno
