LadyChinita, Quote (LadyChinita) Quote (Watcher) whoever inserted that slide has downs syndrome... Sorry, that was me (Art School Fascist) as usual, didn't realize I wasn't logged in lol...maybe YouTube can invent a special video player for these guys thats twice as high as its wide, so we can watch their tall videos, perfect for uploads about tall buildings (WTC?) I suppose if a crucial track is posted by one of these visual illiterates, then theres a (musical) argument for posting it in the forum, but a visually illiterate video of the day??? A contradiction in terms surely (lol Erik). Nitpicking? Well, scientists (possibly excluding Erik's cultural anthropology professor lol) tell us that 93% of the brain's sensory input is via the optic nerve(s). These kids have no doubt heard the rumor that MTV channel used to have music videos back in the day (whereas now it only has reality TV retardation) & that apparently lots of the videos were dope. Well, I think certain standards should apply...For instance, the video of the day should be a VIDEO surely. Of course I dont have a vote on these matters, but surely the production values/artistic merit of the "vid" in question should come into consideration at some point in the deliberation process. People know how to read, write, spell, & of course EVERYBODY thinks THEY have great taste, style, visual sense, but people don't know how to decorate their homes, how to dress, make a BG for their channel, preferring to leave it to "experts" or to lift a "look" from a magazine. Theres a channel called TheNotoriousMex I direct people towards sometimes for a laugh...his icon is a black square & all his uploads are pitch black 16:9 rectangles...his profile simply states "No distracting videos here..." XD http://www.youtube.com/user/TheNotoriousMEX $$$

Quote (gemini) Sorry, that was me i knew that lol Quote (gemini) ...For instance, the video of the day should be a VIDEO surely. Of course I dont have a vote on these matters, but surely the production values/artistic merit of the "vid" in question should come into consideration at some point in the deliberation process. LOL i understand what ur saying 100% so true and i feel the same way but when i first started "video of the day" or lets say it should be called "track of the day" depending what it is.. was because many of the younger members here were saying they didn't know to many underground tracks and it was over whelming over at the underground hip hop thread, so i started it so that we can post one "track" and concentrate on one, so that it wont be so over whelming to some that are still getting to learn about the underground. although i agree, it wasnt about the video but more the message, lyrics. sad that most underground hip hop on youtube dont have videos so we put what we can just for the message and because we are concentrating on getting the underground known as much as we can. If i happen to find a "track" for video of the day, surely i check for a video first on youtube or other sites first, then if not we do the next best thing and use one of these crapy slides.. Like when i posted ur track, i saw that it was on youtube but i put urs because it was a better video but in all honesty its not the video persay, its the track itself and the message but having a great video does help awhole lot hope that made sense.

Quote (gemini) No distracting videos here..." XD LOL wow thats funny, never seen that channel, he does have real hip hop but black lol, i rather have at least a pic then black lol..but really its about the message and lyrics, many great underground artists dont have video. like tuckdragon has some great underground that he finds, i love going through his channel..if u notice most of the artists he finds are pretty unknown underground or rare, there just isn't any videos out there and many are just not putting the effort in making videos or they just dont know how but a good video would be great if it was avaliable but most times it isn't for these great tracks..so we can't let that stop us from putting it as a video of the day, sometimes we write "audio only" or we should write "track of the day" when its not a video but in all honesty when i started this, it wasn't for the videos but the "song/tracks" message, lyrics, flow, beat etc and if a good video comes with it then all the better underground hip hop thread http://realhiphop4ever.ucoz.com/forum/4-51-17

Quote (LadyChinita) "song/tracks" message, lyrics, flow, beat etc Yeah, never mind me lol, MUSIC is #1 of course, funny thing though, if you press play on one of his (TheNotoriousMex) standard quality uploads (350x240 3:4 is actually the size of a pack of cigarettes) the sound quality is incredibly rich & that must be because the video track is absent in WMM. Best remedy is to go HQ or HD, or/and to use WMA files instead of MP3 (a 5Mb MP3 music file is about 45Mb as a WMA file)...the other cool thing is that its usually LOUDER which is cool...I have double problems with finding content, cos I need large pics/vid files for HD, plus the more obscure/underground the Artist/subject, the more thin on the ground the material available is, so I might scrape together enough bits & pieces for one vid on a certain artist/group, but when it comes to trying to do a second one, I can't find any new stuff, so its difficult...I'm trying to collect stuff for an Irish Underground act called Messiah J & the Expert (MJEX). Funny, talking of bad dress sense, the denizens of Dublin, Ireland were voted second worst dressed capital city in Europe in a tourist poll recently (Milan was best dressed, then Paris). Messiah J is awesome, the Japanese go crazy for him & P.E always take MJEX with them when visiting Japan, but like a lot of Irish Rap acts the lads dont look that great dressed as they are in t-shirts & jeans, balding, sporting battered guitars, the lot...I'll figure it out I suppose lol  Added (22/May/09, 11:10 Pm) --------------------------------------------- eboyd, Erik, you'll like this Irish guy, this isnt a song its Irish Underground Rapper Messiah J of Messiah J & the Expert ranting in a niteclub...poetry!!!  Added (22/May/09, 11:21 Pm) --------------------------------------------- eboyd, Messiah J is more of a Rap Poet/Comedian these days, I'm sure Chris Parker digs him, but heres some older lyrics from a few years back when he was more hardcore: Messiah J & The Expert - Bloodrush Song Title : Bloodrush | Artist/Band : Messiah J & The Expert Rating : By 1 users. Save/Share : Send "Bloodrush" as a Ringtone to Your Cell To be specific, My prolific talent Is too terrific. Two tone, too technical, Too crude, too cryptic. It's too critically, Lyrically apocolyptic My sick, quick, shit, Sticks to notepads like pritt stick. It's mad, sadistic, Mystic, persistant. I'm keepin' M.C.'s quiet, Like a library assistant. Witness the intricacy, Preditably you're sick of me. Swiftness and trickery, Messiah take the mickery. Habitually, check the dictionary for lethal, Explained is my name, Dash, no match, no equal No catch, rappers hide in dark corners. I'm makin 'em sweat, Like Jo Brand inside a sauna. Call the ambulance, Call time, it's all over. The Experts beats are putting D.J.'s in comas. M.C.'s on stretchers, the architect induleges, Paramedics scramblin', Checkin' necks for pulses. Forget the bullshit, We're only rich in talent, I'm rescuing the heads Like I'm fuckin' Mitch Buchannon. There's only one way to stop me rappin', It's call Dr. Brown, Travel back to '81, don't let me happen. Stop my crew jammin', Mind and body slammin'. I speak knowledge, I ate the whole fuckin' salmon. C.C.'s too deep, Too dope for understandin'. Hip-Hop had three wishes, An' now you're lookin' at 'em. I'm on a bloodrush, I'm on a bloodrush. With every word, I ryhme, I push. I'm on a blood rush, I'm on a bloodrush. With every pen, pad, mic I touch. I'm on a bloodrush, I'm on a bloodrush. I'm on a rush, a rush, I'm on a bloodrush. I'm flippin' out as such, I need chrome to crunch. Bloodrush, bloodrush, Bloodrush, bloodrush. I overdid it, I O.D.'d on venom & adrenaline. The medicine that's pumping me up, Like an amphetamine. We heard the orchestra, We were strung out, We sent for 'em. From Earth to Pluto, I'm workin' neu voux's to veterans. You know the better men, You know who's wreckin', You know the name, You know you're lovin' every second of this. How many times am I gonna have to say this?, C.C. are not great, C.C. are the fuckin' greatest. God bless us & save us, If we're not in your playlist. You must be comatose, Or be listening with your anus. I'm sick of sayin' this, Hope this beat makes me famous, I'll battle for my city, Like Romulus did with Remus. Takin' it to the pages, With scripts to make 'em sacred. I speak the truth, Till it's stripped & shaken naked. And take it from me, The competition will be wasted. You'll need a tongue, lung, And self-esteem replacement. I'm on a bloodrush, I'm on a bloodrush. With every word, I ryhme, I push. I'm on a blood rush, I'm on a bloodrush. With every pen, pad, mic I touch. I'm on a bloodrush, I'm on a bloodrush. I'm on a rush, a rush, I'm on a bloodrush. I'm flippin' out as such, I need chrome to crunch. Bloodrush, bloodrush, Bloodrush, bloodrush. It's straigh-forward, Gimme the mic, I'm made for it. Reported, that's what divinity & faith ordered. The more that I ryhme, The more M.C.'s in frustration. I'm blazing through the rest of em', In need of resuscitation. The mention of my name, Menaces your arch nemisis. Checkin' more beats than a fuckin' heart specialist. Generating gems since genesis. The general. The opposite gender, Genuflect at my genitals. Gemini, wants to put me & the mic together. My tongue is movin' faster, Than beefy dykes in leather. The clever mind. Rap skills, you couldn't measure mine. I'm takin' you to spoken nirvana. M.C.'s nevermind the contest, Cos I was made to shake fakes, And heads are goin' up & down, Like Ricki Lakes weight. I wait for nowt, M.J. I'm breakin' out. Sound systems are left shakin', When my tape is taken out. From North to South, East to West, I'm bein monitored. You're begging me for more, As my tongue twists like Oliver. I'll make it clear with this ryhme that wrote though. I won't be off stage til the mic is in my chokehold. The vocal trip from Soho to Kyoto, I'll blow for blow, show 'em all, For an Oranoko. You wanna battle? Well that's a no, no. You're only so-so. You'd be loco, To test the virtuoso, Colloseus M.C., Bout time you cut your loses. The bosses, excavating from remains like in Konosis I'm digging up the fossils, Of M.C.'s from the mosses. Accompanied by broken microphones in the process. Turn to artifacts, Anyone, any description. Irish, French, American. Fuck it, Egyptian. I'm blowin' up. You're like a land mine survivor. Cos you've no legs to stand on, Coming up against Messiah J. Lemme lay down the law, So call me Marshall. You said you had skill man, You couldn't rap a parcel. I kill the bass drum, Rhyming until the place thumps. The 'A' stuff, Send fuckin' tremors to your tastebuds

The 'A' stuff, Send fuckin' tremors to your tastebuds idk if it's a poet thing, but that is how my rhymes look (structure wise, rhyme scheme wise, concept wise, etc. EVERYTHING!!!) when i'm just getting super lyrical like that except i don't cuss. that's pretty crazy!!! yeah, i have some stuff like that but i only post a very select amount of my best material and i save the rest to actually spit on the mic. i'm readying something sort of similar for one of Render's beats, just less historical references and dictionary checks. lol! it'll be sick. i may mix some of the lyrics from other tracks though to strengthen it.

Quote (LadyChinita) that guy is good I havent made a vid for my main page in a week, so I'll try to do the Messiah J one tonite...poor dude has become follicly challenged recently, track is far better than that one, I'll use violent Irish history I think for "Bloodrush" heres new fixes for old vids: * New Options for Uploaders: In our continued effort to give you ultimate control over how your videos are presented, uploaders can now tweak the appearance of their video when played on YouTube or in an embedded player. Just insert any of the hint tags below into the tags field of your video and voila! yt:crop=16:9 (zooms in on the 16:9 area, removes windowboxing) yt:stretch=16:9 (fixes anamorphic content by scaling to 16:9) yt:stretch=4:3 (fixes 720x480 content that is the wrong aspect ratio by scaling to 4:3) yt:quality=high (default to a high quality stream, depending on availability) Song about the continued British occupation of the north eastern part of Ireland which denies the Irish people the right of national self-determination. Today in 2008 there are more British troops in the north of Ireland than in the illegal occupation of Iraq. When Irish people rise up against British rule as they have done throughout the centuries you get images like these in the video. Thanks to you all for your worldwide support for freedom in Ireland Song performed by Wings. Give ireland back to the irish Dont make them have to take it away Give ireland back to the irish Make ireland irish today Great britian you are tremendous And nobody knows like me But really what are you doin In the land across the sea Tell me how would you like it If on your way to work You were stopped by irish soliders Would you lie down do nothing Would you give in, or go berserk Give ireland back to the irish Dont make them have to take it away Give ireland back to the irish Make ireland irish today Great britian and all the people Say that all people must be free Meanwhile back in ireland Theres a man who looks like me And he dreams of God and country And hes feeling really bad And hes sitting in a prison Should he lie down do nothing Should give in or go mad Give ireland back to the irish Dont make them have to take it away Give ireland back to the irish Make ireland irish today Give ireland back to the irish Dont make them have to take it away Give ireland back to the irish Make ireland irish today Category: Music Tags: paul mccartney beatles wings ireland troubles give back to the irish
