5th Letter- What's your opinion on today's hip hop?
Turfaholic- Commercially it's in bad shape. We got Kendrick, Cole, & Sean. Then we got The Super Friends making one long track about being junkies. When did being a Junkie become the cool thing to do? Future and The Weekend remind me of Pookie. Zannys and Lean. Everything sounds the same. Beats. Flow. People thought 08 was a bad year, but atleast Souljah Boy threw a "Kiss Me Through The Phone" into the mix. Then it's like, the artist who want to get on are forced to make music that sounds like The Super Friends music. That song "Uber Everywhere" is a perfect example. The machine have Desiigner a #1 song in the country. How did we as a culture allow a biter, (remember that term from the 90s?) To have a number 1 track in the whole country? Shits bonkers. I hope Khaled gets deported soon. He turned the genre into a Kwik E Mart. Thank God the Bay Area put me onto independent music and how to find it. Its so much dope shit shot in the underground right now that would put iheart radio out of business.
5th Letter- How did you discover the IC?
Turfaholic- Like everybody else..... Illseed. Like a week after Stillmatic dropped. I googled "Why did Nas make Ether?" And it took me to the rumor page. I lurked for a minute. I had two other profiles but I forgot the passwords and even the usernames. Turfy seemed to be the that stuck..
5th Letter- How long have you been on the IC?
Turfaholic- Since 01, I lurked like 5 years before I signed up
5th Letter- What took so long?
Turfaholic- Didn't really see a need to sign up. Until I saw something I couldn't help but respond to.
5th Letter-Do you remember what it was? And what were your early memories of the IC?
Turfaholic- Lol, I think it was something Bay Area related. I got in my feelings and had to gear up and represent the soil. The earliest memory I have of the IC is probably the Eagle Grease thread. Seem like not too many people remember that thread. It was a FOF thread before they came and crushed the buildings. That's the thread I think I planted my flag and said "Turfy's here". Outside of that I remember always talking shit to you, H- Rap, & Cain. Lol. I was a young man trying to make a name and earn stripes on a message board lol.
5th Letter-What are some of the craziest things you've seen since you've been on the IC?
Turfaholic- Been so much comedy lol. Chuck and Pico exposing niggas who was sending them checks and risking it all for some IC pussy. The Eagle Grease thread. I think the Eagle Grease roast was far worst than the Shenco roast. Shenco still here. That nigga Eagle Grease got roasted into oblivion. When that nigga Towers got exposed for being a petty thief. Watching Du go through some real nigga shit with his wife behind Khaleesi. He handled it well. Part 2 of the Playas thread is crazy. I went on date with a broad for IC entertainment lol. We all got a healthy laugh out of that.
5th Letter- Speaking of that, youre a regular in the playas thread what's your favorite/craziest playa story(ies)?
Turfaholic- Lol, I ain't a regular in there no more. My girl snatched me up and locked me down. I respect her for it though. One of the reasons I pulled her is because of the Playas thread. But my favorite story in there is mine lol. I went on that date with the bald headed chick with the big titty meats and the cast on her foot. I was on that date giving play by play analysis with pics and shit lol. I can look at that thread now and see my pursuit of my current girl. But that date with that bald headed chick will forever be a good inside joke.
