wutz good Illest?









I never beat on the week ... only toyed with the greats
got intentions of heaven, just a boy with some faith
done wrong, had guns drawn subconciouslly avoiding the gates
scared of the after life, fear its just a void in a lake
don't get joy from the hate; but these verses are like my second home
deploying the bait; won't rest untill my mark has been Set in stone
beyond when the text is gone; i want my words remembered
and my supremacey celebrated every third December
ya'll can hate my punchlines, or they way that i cap-em
Just create your own style, be yourself when you Rapp-in
real recognize real, so its good to be noticed
don't conceal how you feel, rep your hood with no motives
and its good to be focused at the prize at hand
i'm not sparking hate, please read and realize the plan
don't act so surprosed my man; Quix a beast with the poetry
with inspiring words, "i'm my own man", i am who i chose to be
you can believe i'm the best or just proceed with the test
retreat and regress; won't find me decieveing the best
cuz there ain't nothing 'MORE PATHETIC' than cheating in Text
ask Cory, now he's dead!!! ran with his tale tucked
Promise its honest, ain't cuz i'm not a Fan of this pale Fuck
but enough of this stale stuff; lets get back to the matter at hand
lifes too short, find the girl you hurt and grab her again
find your passion in life, whether its being an athlete or rap
just assure that your words true, and your tracks are all fact
watch who yah beef with and becarefull where you aim-kids
cuz you can change your name and shit ... but like Rugged you'll still be that SAME BITCH

LMFAO.. you were one of those pig headed kids that held a grudge weren't you Quix? Face all frowned up, hands folded when you thought someone did something too you saying to yourself, "I'm a get his ass back, you just wait.. I'm a get his ass back!" LMFAO!!!!

That's why I enjoy readin' your shit, it's always little subtle innuendos... (ie ya'll can hate my punchlines, or they way that i cap-em & there ain't nothing 'MORE PATHETIC' than cheating in Text) LOL!

Always enjoyable.

I like how this didn't really have to have any direction to go anywhere. Some very good lines here. IMO, I think the Rugged stuff at the end made this take a different direction slightly, but I can also see how it was relative. I think, though, that everything before that was done very well, and seemed to show a little more ability with your lines that I didn't notice before in any other verses I've read. I think you should get strictly topical with it and open up some more boundaries people might have set for Quix as a writer. Nice, nice drop.

Nice lil drop. Nothn' that jumped out as spectacular but a solid drop all around. Ruggs must be busy cos I aint seen much from him regarding this matter.

Kind of weird how it was half deep shit half Rugged diss. But an enjoyable read, none the less. Flow was tight with some nice multies, too.

In general I thought this was a pretty solid drop, but the rugged diss thing in this instance was kinda whack. The flow had a nice feel about it, and I appreciated the direction you were goin with it at the beginning. I just really wasn't really feeling the veerin' off into the Rugged diss thing, just felt completely unrelated to where you were originally going with it. Your goin along with some elevated ideas, then suddenly it's like "fuck rugged!" and then your back to your elevated spit and then finish off with a "oh yeah, and by the way, don't forget.. fuck rugged!". I feel like holding on to that hate in the midst of a piece about becoming the best emcee you can be takes a lot away from the overarching message your tryin to get across here. Hate don't elevate. Gotta let that shit go, seems like an unnecessary grudge to be holding on to so strong. Really brings the potential of this piece down quite a bit. But parts of this piece were damn good, with a bit of editing on it this'd be a real good drop... Stay up...
