The New York Times Tape Vol.1 - Skank Dollar
The New York Times Tape Vol.1

I released this tape on datpiff.com in 2012. Febuary 21, 2012 to be exact. Before i introduced the world to my one man rap show. I was a one man rap show moving through parts of new york city and the south building my street presence as a rapper for YEARS. It was and still is a stressful process. But if you love making words rhyme then you gotta make sacrafices man. Like ya gear for one, because your buying studio time every chance you get because your fed up, and tired of being ran by the radio. Or your love life because people go out of they’re way sometimes to see what the big deal is. What about people who didn’t believe in you in the first place or just didn’t like you at all. You didn’t think i was good enough when you heard me years ago last decade. It could be a lot of things. But it’s okay because you take all that stress an hate and you use it as fuel to make some shit happen. My first mixtape is a proto type full of stuff i gathered from way way waaaay back.. a lot of writen stuff. I freestyled songs, and had freestyles from old recorded home movies. P.c. freestyles. I pretty much give you the gist of it throughout the tracks on Genius. I made the cover… And the back which was kinda done poorly but who’s perfect? Shall ye cast thy first stone. I broke the rules of rap beef amoungs rappers i think but then again i’m a single street individual living in new york city of all places. Its hard to keep that title if i rap. Anyway i arranged everything with my commrade but i have so much say since i’m just one guy. It’s has a 7 track throwaway tape For a sequal and well it’s different. I’m usually shooting for different instead of the limelight. It’s 2015 so I’ve given the tape a minor touch up and its back out to you to vibe to.. Spiritually, drugs, sex, politics, domestic violence, and weed!! I promised my facebook substance and subatance abuse way back. I was trying to freetyle over it beforehand but you know how the game go.. wait till later when i’m breaking down my rap police chapter. Everything negative you’d expect to happen if you’ve tried this has happened to me. I could never after years of doing this in the street never willingly make a mistake on a track then push it. remember that.. remember you read that here too.
