Rising rap star doesn't need RIAA
|
You won’t hear up-and-coming rap star Flo Rida griping about fans pilfering his songs on P2P sites, or complain that technology is hurting the music industry. Don’t talk to him about so-called digital divides either.
As one of rap music’s fastest rising stars, Rida, 28, is new enough to music success that fans are still precious [...]

“Romany Soup” is absolutely classic: haunting, hypnotic, melodic. Please do get started on Bolan. Please do. (And don’t you dare leave out “One Inch Rock”.)

Dark Lotus Biography |
|
"The sinister group known as Dark Lotus has finally awakened...
July 17, 2001 was the date that finally released a taste of what Dark Lotus was all about. After more than 2 years of speculation and holding it off, Dark Lotus eventually emerged from the darkness. -*Note that the Dark Lotus album was released on the 17th of July*- Anyways the album was released to a few thousand lucky Juggalos on the Gathering of the Juggalos which was about a week earlier than the scheduled nationwide release date.
Dark Lotus consists of Violent J, Shaggy 2 Dope, Jamie Madrox, Monoxide Child, Blaze Ya Dead Homie, and Anybody Killa. Now lets go back to an ex-member of Dark Lotus. You know who the fuck I'm talking about......Marz. Thats right muthafackos, Marz. That really pissed me off when J announced Marz was out. What the fuck was that? And they didn't even tell him in person and just posted it up on the site. That was pretty fucked up. And over some stupid ass reason which I won't get into right now, because its a long fuckin story.
So the album was released and it was #1 on some independent charts, which was really surprising, because I went to a number of record stores and they said they didn't carry it, and probably never heard of it. I finally had to order it on Amazon.com which took about two weeks for me to get. The second I got a taste of it, BLAMMMMMMMMMM! my fuckin head exploded. Let me tell you, that was some of the craziest, wickedest, sickest, most diabolical shit I've ever heard. I guess the two year wait was well worth it. Unfortunately, a couple of weeks later news came up that Marz was out, which I discussed earlier, and Anybody Killa was the new sixth member. Now they're working on the re-release of Dark Lotus-Tales from the Lotus Pod with the Marz lyrics out and Anybody Killas in. Plus a couple of new songs, and a special guest, you know it, Three Six muthafuckin Mafia. So only time will tell how long Dark Lotus will last until the awakening of the DARK CARNIVAL?!?"
