Most emcees today use drugs as stimulants when performing or recording. Okay, think of me as lame or whatever you may call it, but is there any good in smoking/sniffing/injecting when in action? As far as I know, no matter how much weed you consume, if you are wack then that's just how it is...What? Is the chuang going to make your beat sound any better?? Oh yah, I get it!!! Maybe if you smoke you will be in your right mind when spitting??? :? I SERIOUSLY doubt that...Okay, my point is, you don't have to waste your life living what you think is hiphop...We will lose you in a flash - but Hip Hop will live on, you dig???

right!about the Indo/dope usage part, ok let's narrow it to indo aka weed aka chronic, some peops actually feel it brings 'em to a level where inspiration and creativity is unleashed, as if it had been in confinement till that moment :lol: .

indo usage is globally notorious amongst songsters and the likes, notable mentions: bob marley, Snoop etc but really it doesn't increase sh*t as those two named above are just some amongst many users within the music frat. but there are majorities that don't get to blow.

so it f***king don't matter what you are on? if you were born to make it in the music line you will but not effortlessly.
why not cut the smoke off and live longer.

ha ha @ you, 26. jokes apart , i feel the AHH community is discussion shy. you put in a very good topic and no one is willing to discuss.
they prolly will say this is an hiphop site lol they better get it right. hiphop has some of the most intelligent heads that ever tasted the sun - nas, jz, rakim , biggie,IT,AZ,Method, Red,dilated people etc

i guess that's summov tha reason they all sound wack in rhymes :lol: now i'm becoming too peacocky :lol: fuck you wreck :lol:

The use of drugs lyk weed will increase ur inspiration...but just 4 a while,
dat is why most mcees sniff cokes or burn weeds before going into the mic booth/
4 example ol dirty bastard,methodman,redman,nas,jayz,rza,gza,moob deep,2pac,b.i.g...and all dhose real hiphop hedz,
go listen 2 their albums u will find out how dope it is,dey only smoke it 4 inspiration before dey start writing their lyrics,
God created weed 4 a reason,i think he made it 4 mcees.

men u were really right in every shit,but i don't like the way u approached the matter,u knw,i started smoking way before i started digging real shit,and now am 21 still i am still smoking,and the shit is kind of worrysome to me,ma life now hangs on this shit,still i knw it ain't no way connected to the hip hop i listen to,so i think u re geting it twisted by saying that clunging to weed makes u spit fire or shits like that,thats never the mindstate of smokers,it's sth u start off cuz u want to belong,seeing ya seniors puffing and watching em get street cred cuz they are viewed as strong niggers in the neigbourhood,nat because i see mofuckers on tv screns puffing and i drag away ma lung cuz i think we real fellars in the game,NAW,it's a lifestyle way before i started listening to pac,and i believe it's same with a lot of cats in here,so get the shit right and maybe we can come up with a way to stop his shit,cuz am really tired of this kind of life,since yesterday i read this shit i've been wondering ,u knw i've nat even smoked today,nat cuz i want to stop it,just cuz i am busy,,,,,,, 8) 8)
I swear beside ur potrait if u can show me how to do it.

^ word, touching. Our lives are important specially to those who are close to us and our ambitions and potentials shouldn't be slaughtered on the altar of addiction, i get what yo saying. this year i still puffed a cuban cigar and yes, it was in an all night. shit peer pressure and social gatherings push one into shit.
NE ways your lungs is what that suffers . i don't want to get to like 40, madly made money and then die of lungs cancer w/e death is an inevitable eventuality but one should be wise.serious Talk :)

Drugs have never been a solution to anything and reason to anything, its purely unpopular and uncalled for, true success on the mic is all debated on how sober and educative or informative one is, i don’t do drugs but I spit good rhymes and the rest can do that as well so 26 your on point it aint cool at all
there is a diffrence between dreaming and visualizing, which one are you doing?

aint how sober you are its how dope you are cause your raps can mean some real ish but if you iant dope....you aint dope...

its a tough call cause you hear music from peeps who were definitely high when they recorded, but its still dope music. In my experience though, when i would get high, i would feel real creative, but at the same time would get really unfocused and impatient, and a lot of times after i heard something i recorded high, i would feel like it was garbage. And working with other artists you can tell once they get high they get all over the place, yeah you feel creative but your ability to execute your creativity becomes impaired.
I mean i'll smoke now and then, but i know it fucks me up, it doesnt make me anything that i am not already. Anything stronger than weed and booze i feel like you're risking really messing yourself and your music up. and i dont buy it when people say they NEED it to be creative, that's bogus.
