Hamapika, the most unreliable japanese gaming news site, reports that our beloved CFA☆ is actually still in progress, and it hasn't been eaten by the jam !
I know, there's no reason to believe Hamapika once again, but I have grown addicted to this shit.
I find this unsubstantiated rumour very heartening, because, for me, no information would ever lead me to believe that this game has been cancelled*. If the game continues to not be released, check back with me in 2010 and I may finally be ready to concede. But I doubt it.
And the more this kind of thing happens, the harder I get to laugh at the end at fate, myself, and everyone who thought that the game was cancelled for sure.
*- don't get techincal on me here, you know what I mean

You should be. You see, Li'l Jon is the Dirty South version of P. Diddy and Jermaine Dupri and all those other good producers who think they can also rap (well). Except... Li'l Jon and his Eastside Boyz know they can't, so, as they say in the business, they pass the mike and just yell really loud. Of course, the best possible outcome is a guy like Kanye West or Dr. Dre, who can both produce and rap well, but at least Li'l Jon knows his limits, and produces some of the best crunk in the business.

ha ha. I like your explanation K-man (your 2 for 2 tonight, your shungokustatsu mini essay was good too). I hate P Diddy's tactics, even though I can't help liking some of his work. But why bash Jermaine Dupree? I never thought of him as annoyingly boastful as Diddy. Plus he sounds pretty good. Diddy sounds like... I don't now. He sounds like a black man that can't rap, so he just makes himself sound angry but even that comes off lame. Ha ha ha.
The only rapper that I'm really liking right now from the current crop of new rappers is Ludacris. But he actually doesn't have a lot of good tracks on his albums. Just one or two hits and thats it. He needs a better producer or something.
As for everthing else. Dr. Dre as best producer for life. And Methodman as best rapper for life. Tupac was great, but he kinda kept redoing the same flavor over and over (he did it great though.) Biggie was great, but he also redid the same s--t over a lot. Jay-Z has more variety. But Meth has a grittier voice, and I like that.

I don't know why I don't like Dupri... I guess he doesn't seem original or polished enough, and I need my artists to be one of the two. I do like his constant declarations that he's about to let it go (barf, that is). That's the way to party.

Yeah, some rappers get inconsistent production by luck of the draw or some other reason. I believe on Ludacris's most recent album, he mostly let unknown producers have a go at it except for Kanye West and a few others - noble, but it didn't work, as most of the unknowns weren't that great. As for other good new rappers, I would recommend getting K-OS and Cee-lo's solo albums. If you're trying to find some good old-school, look up the Wu-Tang and Goodie Mob. Goodie Mob especially. Those guys need to reunite.

Biggie and Tupac were all about polish. And while they did rap about the same stuff, they never turned in a dead track.

Umm... I'm pretty sure that's just the weed talking.
