Josh where can i listen to it? - went to your soundcloud couldn find it.
If everybody else finds it ok - you can use that as an entry (???)
Rules are different this battle - or did you use some other rules/no sp?
i love/know your art - i'm curious bro!

TepaphoneSP wrote:Damn RunMe that was a loaded sample! I liked the clever wording on the rules too.
I broke those rules though 'cause my power was the pitch control on Audacity...hehehe. But I learned a LOT from further exploring Fela's work.

grandpakyre, thanks a bunch for the youtube link. I had no idea Fela was such a badass multidimensional being, a true human. Damn that dude was going for it..

Made me think about how music is used as a weapon most effectively now, perverting our favorite art form into a recruitment tool for poor kids to sell the elite's drugs for them with the added benefit of helping the prison industrial complex to make money. Shit, I'd be OD'ing on Codiene too if I was 'Lil Wayne...Haha just a thought.

Anyway:

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
thnx brother from another mother!
i appreciate the honesty about breaking the rules , you know how i think about ''rules'' , i prefer ''battle discipline'' myself.
If all the votes go to a gladiator - whos broken the rules, then wat can the rules do? (hehehe)

Its only a weapon if the musician/gladiator has woken up! and stands up knowing what to fight for

im thinking about writing a verse on top of this, but i wanted to atleast get the instrumental in then go from there. @Runme_Raw will a deadline be posted/would i be able to re-submit?

YO Sam! - Sure bro go ahead - why not?
I'm down with a deadline when all the gladiators are down.
For my feeling it always has been an open&nice friendly battle community ,that takes the time to battle and to vote - in comparison with STBB - because of a smaller group.

Since i missed a week (electricity) ,
i wanted to ask the fam if i stil can upload a flip too?
(not for the win/vote - not for the shine - but for the love).

And let it last a day longer for us 2 and maybe other ''late gladiators''
i say lets do it Sam!

Battletime started : Sat March 16 2013
