Ignorant Shit...

Somebody named MakingCrazyMoves said:
"it's so hilarious how every dude these days is so trend-happy to have the audacity to say you would be doing something remotely CLOSE to what the Panthers were doing. I didn't see no Curtains rally in L.A. for the Jena 6, Sean Bell, Push Movement, Katrina....didn't see your name in the papers once. Don't you have some shoes to go rap about. Stay in your lane."

Now usually I don't respond to comments, but this kind of comment is what i'm addressing in my new record "Black Folks", so it only makes sense that I reply. Now reading this comment makes me understand that whoever wrote it is an idiot. First things first, by you saying "...didn't see your name in the papers once..." lets me know how ignorant you are. Since when does getting publicity for doing a good deed validate your deed??? Thats exactly the shit I don't respect people like Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton for. Sure they do rile up the troops and do their marches, but they do it when the camera's are on and the media is around, when all that attention is gone, so is their fight. So does that validate their cause? No! I'm not a defensive person, so i'm not gonna sit here and write a whole essay on what i've done and what i've been involved in to aide the black fight, just know that when I do something, its sincere and I could give a fuck if I get recognition and/or credit. Music is my #1 platform to raise awareness in this world, I am not a preacher nor am I a politician, I raise awareness of issues in my music first off, everything else comes secondary. Now if you wanna backtrack to a few years ago, 1st mixtape, Young Brooklyn Vol. 1, yeah I was dropping knowledge, raising awareness to the problems going on in the inner city, using my voice on the only platform I had at the moment. So if you wanna talk about "Trend-happy dudes" please direct your comments elsewhere fam. I been on this shit, this ain't nothing new, I been a "Rebel", been dropping knowledge, my 1st album got shelved because I wouldn't dumb down my music. My question to you is what are you doing? Leaving comments about something positive someone else is doing? Nice. Very productive. Your helping the cause greatly. I love ignorance, I have fun with ignorant people. Keep at it. Dope For President 2010!

Like Father Like Son....How True Is That?

XXL MIXTAPE REVIEW

Photobucket

Now this man can say “Brooklyn!” and I’ll recognize him as a Brooklynite. Unlike that Norman Bates muthaf*cka, Theophilus London. Given, Curtains doesn’t have your average Brooklyn flow or even style for that manner. His music has more of a D12 “Purple Pills” sound to it. His style is a little more animated than your average NY rapper, but not to the point where you can’t take him serious. His rhymes and lyrical content is definitely up to par.

His metaphors are as clever as any of these so called hot rappers in the game today. Take these bars off of “The Legend of Bagger Dope” for example: “Starting to get bored with this game like Quiji/shit watered down like Fiji/who led them to the well and forced them to drink? Dumb down they minds and ain’t force them to think/till I came back with the force of a tank/now they whole scene is destroyed and they think/I done it/see niggas pop shit like flies on it/go luniz with the jewels and drop 5 on it…”

When he’s not freestyling over Jigga’s “Where I’m From” beat (“New Dope City”) or 50’s “I Get Money” joint (“Dopesters Millions”), then most of the production sounds like they’ve been Neptune inspired: bass driven electro tracks. But even though the tracks of “Teenage Mutant Ninja Dope,” and “The Last Dope Scout” sound like they were put together in less than 10 minutes, C more than makes up for the lack of sonic sound with his words and flows.

When it was all said and done, CurT@in$ put together a mixtape that’ll definitely make heads stop what they’re doing and listen. Whether it’s a clever line he spit or a hot metaphor that’s never been used like “You’re an undercover fag, Clay Aikened out/and I’m a wild Cowboy, Troy Aikmaned out!” hip-hop fans will appreciate what this kid is cooking. Just pure and simple dopeness.
