I heard a lot of talk about it and its name but after i heard the "Be a N****r too" I realized is point of view. He's smart and I've always liked how he's tried to take himself away from what everyone else is doing in the industry. He is definitely taking responsibility for the power that he has instead of rocking white framed sunglasses to set a trend. <BR/><BR/>Thanks for doing a tribute to him. It would be ill if he copped the original offa you and framed it.Andre Barnwellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14236322820759158484noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29376186.post-86629663147173534762008-07-31T00:45:00.000-07:002008-07-31T00:45:00.000-07:00This is baller, and thank you very much for the il...This is baller, and thank you very much for the ilya repin download!Yu Chung Peter Chanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02142912506437895110noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29376186.post-82322133191552056142008-07-29T19:24:00.000-07:002008-07-29T19:24:00.000-07:00thanks for the kind comments everyone!
