I don't know if ya'll have heard or seen.
Most people especially rona bodarkie(i'm not trying to be derogatory against my own or anything) are spending more than we can really afford.
Some stats say that we aint even saving for our retirement, that is real scary ya'll. If all the money we work for is consumed by all that we "own" are we really wealthy. These marketing people seem to be targeting this exact point spend, spend, spend. We need to be careful else we will e poor in a coupla years time. My friend told me that marketing strategies are now focusing on the emerging "black middle class", from whips, jewelry, gadgets, clothes and all it is all targeted at you to spend all you got and all that you dont have, since we are the most economically active. I feel like a pawn, these marketing scavengers have taken advantage of our previous disposition and our current favourable cash-in-the-hand position to strip us of all that we have, of course if you neva had money you gonna want to buy all that you can in order to experience what it it feels like to have.These advertising punks know this very well.
Becareful, dont be taken for a ride, save a little every now and then.

Buckwild
Let Me give you some old school Wrap about what these kids should know today.

Not many crews can claim two great producers. Diggin In The Crates have four fully fledged beatmaking legends in one little eight man click. Three of those four producers have done their fair share of rapping over the years (Lord Finesse is a master in both fields), but the fourth man has made beats, simple and plain, for more than a decade without touching a microphone. Perhaps because of this low profile, Buckwild has never go the kind of props that Diamond D and Showbiz get from the thinking Hiphop press.
In my opinion Buckwild has long been both the most reliable AND the most diverse member of the crew when it comes to knocking out a tune. Anyone listening in the early 90s can tell you what a Diamond D track sounds like or what a typical Lord Finessebeat will do, but can you really tell me OC's classic "Times Up" shares much sonically with Black Rob's "Woah"? Like LL says, Idon'thinkso. And he's still doing it! If there is one thing that unites many (not all) Buck produced tracks it's the space. Rarely does he fill a track up to the brim with layered samples when a fresh loop and hard beat will do the job. It's this economy that unites the above tracks.
