rhyme(s) and (t)reason..??

There's been a lot of interesting things happening lately,more so..

These insentient ‘goyim’ animal humanoid-alien shit fucks and popular poptarts and scene-posers are dick-riding the industry for acceptance. Even the superfluous elite on-line indie underground populace has fallen victim to this plaque of pretentious ‘cool shit’ and swag is nauseating as fuck!

The value and merit of originality is being undermined by disposable arts and biting ‘cut&paste’ freaks who lack the courage,guts and balls to challenge the status quo and introduce innovative ideas without replicating the same recycled concept of ‘what is’. 

It's kind of creepy realizing that my music has always revealed its prophetic semblance even more with the passing of time and intuitive experiential learning and lucid epiphanies in my neon reality dream world:

sometimes you know shit for sure..

but don't know what it means.

sometimes you know not of their meaning or very little of their volitile nature in spirit but tend to understand their intellectual capacity and pragmatic potential better.

Sometimes these details may seem trivial and incomprehensible and poetic but that is not an intended gesture to impress..

but to warn those wary of the perilous adventures that await us all on this unpredictable journey and dark path of warrior kings and queens of the underworld realm of 

rhyme[s]&[t]reason.

..ya digg?

#Heart4Sale: Thinking Out Loud Again!

RapLife has been great... Since my first original debut release on my fuckin' birthday in '06 things have often unfolded     excitedly well for an aristocratic indie ass bum like me self. Fuck media fireflies,the journey into higher heights certainly requires mics! 

Sometimes the attention and success of my work can be a little overwhelming for someone who usually enjoys an obnoxious quietly descreet life living under a rock just writing raps withno fucking pressure from an audience of analytical demon critics and newly ‘born again’ flock of fallen angels.. Haha. Okay,maybe it's NOT that bad.. We live for this shit. Life is a bitch and I'm sure everyone can conjure up a saying about it. There is always reality distortions that make things seem impossible but still adventurously ‘fuckwithable’. 

Honestly think my rapshit is more of a pathological disease.. and could never stop writing EVER!!! 

I enjoy ART,weirdly strange Music and NOT just HIPHOP shit but a lot of stuff that embraces couture grunge gutter intellectualism(wow! yeah,right.)

I spend most of my time alone in isolated contemplation,sometimes it does get kinda awkward being around people..

I don't normally say much except when I'm recording or drunk,buzzed and fucking! [..making battle mode Pokémon sound noises!! Hehehe😉].

I guess I'm an ‘underground’ New Age author.. sorta. Fuck Life.. I've often contemplated suicide but I'm just way too selfish to do it.. There's always one more thing! One more rhyme,One more beer,One more chick to BANG!!! Or something.. You know??😳

Fuck teleological speculation about what Life should be like and/or about and what not.. It's all bullshit. 

Least we could do is LIVE.. One day at a time,seek nothing but happiness and contentment with[in] yeself first before seeking confirmation from the world about thyself. The world is an over-populated asylum and the ‘TRUTH’ is often 

over-rated. 

Oops! Sorry,just thinking out loud...

All alone again.

THE BENEFITS of MASONIC MEMBERSHIP? Occasionally a member is asked by a non-Mason “What benefits do you receive from your Masonic membership?” Most members when asked this question for the first time have difficulty knowing what to say. This is especially true if the member has not given the matter any thought or he has had no experience explaining things to others. The situation can be further complicated for the member who erroneously believes that Freemasonry is a “secret” society and that the answer he may give might be disclosing a Masonic “secret.” We also must recognize that Freemasonry has so many facets and attractions that each member has sought membership in the Craft for a reason personal to himself. Each has entered the lodge in search of something that is prob-ably different than another member. It is hoped that he has found in Freemasonry that which he was seeking. This facet or attraction is intimately connected with the specific benefit which the member logically would ex-plain in his answer to the question if he is not prepared to answer the question as a result of careful thought and consideration of all the possible benefits that have come to him as a result of his becoming a Mason. Every member should be aware of the possibility that such a question might be asked of him and he should be prepared to answer it fairly, truthfully, and completely. Here are some observations on the matter that will help you answer the question under consideration. A benefit may be considered as anything which is helpful, profitable, favorable, and advantageous to a person. A benefit may take many forms such as improving a person in some way, promoting his happiness, raising his status socially, increasing his personal contacts with others, or assisting him in any number of other ways. In a general way the benefits of Masonic membership are both tangible and intangible. Here are a few of the tangible benefits that come to mind at once. Many Grand Lodges maintain a Home for the needy members in their Golden Years. Some maintain a Home for the children of deceased members. It is a comfortable feeling to know that if you have minor children, and with an untimely death that your children will be taken care of by the Craft; and if you are unable to take care of yourself in your declining years, it is a calming feeling to know that there will be help available for you and your wife. In some areas the Craft maintains a hospital for the public and takes care of the needy members of the Craft as well when they require medical attention. Most lodges have sick visitation committees. When a report is received of a sick member, steps are taken to have someone visit him. These visits are good for the person who is sick as well as for the one who is doing the visiting. If you are sick in bed or home bound, it is a great feeling to know that out there is someone who cares enough to take time to visit you. All members are taught to be charitable in word and deed. The word “charity” is used in the Craft in its broadest sense. When visiting a sick Brother you are urged to listen to his troubles, sympathize with him, and to help him unburden himself. Often the faithful breast and the listen-ing ear can do more good than all the medicine in the world to improve one’s spirits. Many lodges have Low Twelve Clubs in which members make a nominal payment each time a member passes away. The money is de-posited in a bank account and when word is received that a member has died, the treasurer immediately presents the family with a check for the prescribed amount so that it may be used to meet expenses at once. Some lodges and some Grand Lodges con-duct a blood bank program. Members of the lodges volunteer to give blood to the bank. When a member or someone in his family are in need of blood to regain their health, the blood in the bank is made available to them without cost . If a Mason finds himself stranded in a strange place and is in need of help, there is al-ways available help not too far away. In some areas there are Masonic Boards of Relief to help in such cases. In other places the needy Mason can contact the local lodge which will render whatever assistance is necessary. Many illustrations can be given of how Masonic charity has been dispensed to members and their families. Here are a few of them. A widow of a deceased member was in need of her house being painted and she called the secretary of the lodge for a recommendation of a painter who could do the job at a reasonable price. Knowing the tight financial condition of the caller, the secretary informed the Worshipful Master and a meeting was called at which the officers met to discuss the matter. As a result, several members donated the necessary material to paint the house for the widow. In Canada several years ago a widow called the Masonic Board of Relief and requested help in an un-usual situation. A family of skunks had settled in the crawl space under her house and she needed help to remove the new tenants. A number of lodge members were enlisted to bring this about. (Many fascinating examples of Masonic Charity can be found in prior Short Talk Bulletins. Indexes are available at no charge.) Clearly, the intangible benefits predominate over the tangible ones. In some instances the benefits defy classification because they are a blend of both general benefits. The first benefit received by a candidate for the degrees is the contacts he makes with those that recommend him and those who investigate his petition. The next benefit is the receiving of the three degrees and the friendships that develop with the poster and others connected with his securing the needed proficiency to advance from one degree to the other. The ceremony of receiving the degrees together with the lectures is a new experience and hopefully the candidate has come to the meetings in the spirit of anticipating an important event with a receptive heart and mind. The impressive presentation is bound to have an important effect on him. He is bound to observe that he is the center of attraction, that the degree is conferred on him alone, and that we are concentrating our attention on him. This should convince him that we are devoted to the importance of each person who joins us in our work. There are a number of intangible benefits that do not readily meet the eye, but they do exist in ample measure. Freemasonry is a selective organization and not everyone is accepted as a member. The mere fact that an application for membership has been filed indicates a desire to belong to something and to be associated with something worthwhile. He may not recognize this intangible element but he is seeking to “belong” to a worthwhile organization and to make his contribution to the work of the group. Let us recognize that there is nothing more destructive of one’s happiness than the feeling of being alone, of not being a part of anything worthwhile. When he becomes a member he acquires a large number of new Brothers bound by a solemn obligation to do everything possible to make this a better world in which to live. I know of one case where an only child joined a Masonic lodge and after he became a member was filled with joy for he was no longer an only child but had acquired Brothers that he did not have before. Joining the Craft immediately gives the new member a new identity. He becomes a member of a world-wide fraternity dedicated to the Fatherhood of God and the Brotherhood of Man. Non-members are aware of the many fine charitable projects supported by Masons, and when a member is identified as such it is bound to reflect favorably in the eyes of the non-member. There is also the matter of securing identity with other Masons and creating warm friendships. Each member knows that in common with all other members he has taken a solemn obligation to be a good man and true. As a result, when meeting another Mason there is immediately established a close sense of friendship resulting from the unexpressed knowledge that they both have a common philosophy of life which makes them better men and that they can help and trust one another. This matter of identity is indicated by the many Masons who wear a Masonic pin and thereby tell the world of their identity with the Craft. The member who becomes active in the work of the Craft acquires some degree of leadership and eventually develops a feeling of “importance” because he is serving the organization in worthwhile activities. Every person, in order to be happy, must feel that he is important to his family, his employer, his community, or some other group. The more experiences exist in one’s life the happier that person is bound to be. Sometimes we complain about the many persons who are introduced at Masonic meetings, but this is one way that we show our appreciation for work done and making the worker feel important because of services rendered. Even the inactive member who pays his dues and attends Masonic functions occasionally will get a glow of satisfaction as he hears of the many activities being supported financially and otherwise by the Craft. One of the most valuable benefits that is secured by being a Freemason is the unlimited opportunity to make deep and abiding friend-ships. Working with other good men on worthy projects has a way of developing into close friendly relations with a feeling of mutual respect for one another. You know that in case of need you can speak safely in confidence with a brother Mason. In case you are dejected you know that you have someone to speak with and unburden yourself as you pour your troubles into a sympathetic ear. I know of two cases of bachelors who lived in a single room each in separate boarding houses. Each night they went to a different lodge meeting with regularity so that over a period of time they virtually adopted certain lodges as their own. The friendships that they developed and the visiting they were able to do each night enriched their lives immensely and saved them from the boredom of sitting in a single room looking at four walls night after night. Active members receive the greatest benefit from their connection with Freemasonry. Opportunity is afforded to develop one’s memory, working with others, learning to organize projects, develop speaking ability by making re-ports and presenting lectures, and learning how to work with others. There are many members who have no opportunity for an extensive for-mal education to thus secure considerable educational training. The intangible benefit that is often over-looked is that the Craft teaches its members a philosophy of life. The importance of this benefit should not be overlooked because every person needs a philosophy of life to guide him or her in the journey through life. In past years a great deal of the turmoil with our youth was the confusion relative to an absence of a philosophy of life as they floundered around seeking something but not knowing what it was. Some-times these young folks spoke of high ideals but really had nothing that would guide them into meaningful activities to make these ideals a reality. If we could only reach the minds of these young people they and the Craft could profit greatly. Another intangible benefit is the opportunity which the Craft offers its members to be-come associated with worthy projects that help make this a better world in which to live. These consist primarily of the many charitable projects that are supported by the lodges, the Grand Lodges, and the appendant bodies of the Craft. Non-members are aware of the spirit of friendship that exists between members of the Craft. The question is sometimes asked out of curiosity whether Masons are required to patronize other Masons in their business transactions. Every Mason knows that there is no such rule of the Craft. But we must recognize that when one is considering entering into a business or professional relationship he is more likely to select someone that he knows and trusts. If you need the services of a real estate broker, for example, and you have been working on a project with a fellow member of your lodge, there can be little doubt that all things being equal your Masonic friend will receive your patron-age. Personal contacts, working together, developing friendships is bound to result in business and professional relationships in many in-stances even though no Masonic law requires this to be done. For the member who is interested in intellectual pursuits, the reading of Masonic books especially in the area of Masonic philosophy and history, can be a valuable experience. These books, of course, can be read by non-Masons but they will not be able to receive full benefit of the material in these books because of their lack of complete information about the Craft . Each member, if he gives this matter some thought, undoubtedly can recall instances in which his Masonic membership has proved to be a benefit to him. Above all else, it is well to be prepared to answer the question should the occasion arise, “What Benefits do you receive from your Masonic members?"

The Radiant indigo-child: Basquiat.. [Life&Death in Art].

Jean-Michel Basquiat, born in Brooklyn, New York, was the second of four children of Matilda Andrades (July 28, 1934 – November 17, 2008),and Gerard Basquiat (born 1930). He had two younger sisters: Lisane, born in 1964, and Jeanine, born in 1967. His father, Gerard Basquiat, was born in Port-au- Prince, Haiti, and his mother, Matilde Basquiat, of Afro-Puerto Rican descent, was born in Brooklyn, New York. Matilde instilled a love for art in her young

son by taking him to art museums in Manhattan and

enrolling him as a junior member of the Brooklyn Museum of Art.  Basquiat was a precocious child who learned how to read and write by age four and

was a gifted artist. His teachers noticed his artistic

abilities, and his mother encouraged her son's artistic

talent. By the age of 11, Basquiat could fluently

speak, read and write French, Spanish, and English. In September 1968, when Basquiat was about 8, he

was hit by a car while playing in the street. His arm

was broken and he suffered several internal injuries, and he eventually underwent a splenectomy. While he was recuperating from his injuries, his mother brought him the Gray's Anatomy book to keep him occupied. This book would prove to be influential in

his future artistic outlook. His parents separated that

year and he and his sisters were raised by their father. The family resided in Boerum Hill, Brooklyn, for five years, then moved to San Juan, Puerto Rico in 1974. After two years, they returned to New York City. When he was 11, his mother was committed to a

mental institution and thereafter spent time in and out of institutions. At 15, Basquiat ran away from home. He slept on park benches in Washington Square Park, and was arrested and returned to the care of his father within a week. Basquiat dropped out of Edward R. Murrow High School in the tenth grade. His father banished him from the household and Basquiat stayed with friends

in Brooklyn. He supported himself by selling T-shirts

and homemade post cards. He also worked at the

Unique Clothing Warehouse in West Broadway, Manhattan.

In 1976, Basquiat and friend Al Diaz began spray-

painting graffiti on buildings in Lower Manhattan, working under the pseudonym SAMO. The designs featured inscribed messages such as “Plush safe he

think.. SAMO” and “SAMO as an escape clause.” On December 11, 1978, the Village Voice published an article about the graffiti. When Basquiat & Diaz ended their friendship, The SAMO project ended with

the epitaph “SAMO IS DEAD,” inscribed on the walls of SoHo buildings in 1979. In 1979, Basquiat appeared on the live public-access television cable TV show TV Party hosted by Glenn O'Brien, and the two started a friendship. Basquiat made regular appearances on the show over the next

few years. That same year, Basquiat formed the noise rock band Test Pattern – which was later renamed Gray – which played at Arleen Schloss´s open space, “Wednesdays at A`s”,where in October 1979 Basquiat showed, among others, his SAMO color

Xerox work. Gray also consisted of Shannon Dawson, Michael Holman, Nick Taylor, Wayne Clifford and Vincent Gallo, and the band performed at nightclubs such as Max's Kansas City, CBGB, Hurrah, and the Mudd Club. In 1980, Basquiat starred in O'Brien's independent film Downtown 81, originally titled New York Beat. That same year, Basquiat met Andy Warhol, at a restaurant. Basquiat presented to Warhol samples of his work, and Warhol was stunned by

Basquiat's genius and allure. The men later collaborated. Downtown 81 featured some of Gray's recordings on its soundtrack. Basquiat also appeared in the Blondie music video “Rapture” as a nightclub disc jockey. In June 1980, Basquiat participated in The Times Square Show, a multi-artist exhibition sponsored by Collaborative Projects Incorporated (Colab) and Fashion Moda. In 1981, Rene Ricard published “The Radiant Child” in Artforum magazine,which brought Basquiat to the attention of the art world. From November 1982, Basquiat worked from the

ground-floor display and studio space Larry Gagosian had built below his Venice home and commenced a series of paintings for a 1983 show, his second at Gagosian Gallery, then in West Hollywood. During this time he took considerable interest in the work

that Robert Rauschenberg was producing at Gemini G.E.L. in West Hollywood, visiting him on several occasions and finding inspiration in the accomplishments of the painter. In 1982, Basquiat also worked briefly with musician and artist David Bowie. In 1983, Basquiat produced a 12" rap single featuring hip-hop artists, Rammellzee and K-Rob. Billed as Rammellzee vs. K-Rob, the single contained two

versions of the same track: “Beat Bop” on side one

with vocals and “Beat Bop” on side two as an instrumental. The single was pressed in limited quantities on the one-off Tartown Record Company

label. The single's cover featured Basquiat's artwork,

making the pressing highly desirable among both

record and art collectors. At the suggestion of Swiss dealer Bruno Bischofberger, Warhol and Basquiat worked on a series of collaborative paintings between 1983 and 1985. In the case of Olympic Rings (1985), Warhol made several variations of the Olympic five-ring

symbol, rendered in the original primary colors.

Basquiat responded to the abstract, stylized logos with his oppositional graffiti style. Basquiat often painted in expensive Armani suits and would even appear in public in the same paint- splattered suits. By 1986, Basquiat had left the Annina Nosei gallery,

and was showing in the famous Mary Boone gallery in SoHo. On February 10, 1985, he appeared on the cover of The New York Times Magazine in a feature entitled “New Art, New Money: The Marketing of an American Artist”. He was a successful artist in this period, but his growing heroin addiction began to

interfere with his personal relationships. When Andy Warhol died on February 22, 1987, Basquiat became increasingly isolated, and his heroin addiction and depression grew more severe. Despite an attempt at sobriety during a trip to Maui, Hawaii, Basquiat died on August 12, 1988, of a heroin overdose at his art studio in Great Jones Street in New York City's NoHo neighborhood. He was 27. Basquiat was interred in Brooklyn's Green-Wood Cemetery.

Fred Hoffman hypothesizes that underlying

Basquiat’s sense of himself as an artist was his

“innate capacity to function as something like an oracle, distilling his perceptions of the outside world down to their essence and, in turn, projecting them outward through his creative acts.” Additionally, continuing his activities as a graffiti artist, Basquiat

often incorporated words into his paintings. Before

his career as a painter began, he produced punk-

inspired postcards for sale on the street, and became

known for the political–poetical graffiti under the

name of SAMO. On one occasion Basquiat painted his girlfriend's dress with the words “Little Shit

Brown”. He would often draw on random objects and

surfaces, including other people's property. The

conjunction of various media is an integral element of

Basquiat's art. His paintings are typically covered with

text and codes of all kinds: words, letters, numerals, pictograms, logos, map symbols, diagrams and more. A middle period from late 1982 to 1985 featured

multi-panel paintings and individual canvases with

exposed stretcher bars, the surface dense with

writing, collage and imagery. The years 1984–85 were

also the main period of the Basquiat–Warhol

collaborations, even if, in general, they weren't very well received by the critics. A major reference source used by Basquiat throughout his career was the book Gray's Anatomy, which his mother gave to him while he was in the

hospital at age seven. It remained influential in his

depictions of internal human anatomy, and in its

mixture of image and text. Other major sources were

Henry Dreyfuss Symbol Sourcebook, Leonardo Da Vinci's notebooks, and Brentjes African Rock Art. Basquiat doodled often and some of his later pieces exhibited this; they were often colored pencil on paper

with a loose, spontaneous, and dirty style much like

his paintings. His work across all mediums displays a childlike fascination with the process of creating.

In 1991, poet Kevin Young produced a book, To Repel Ghosts, a compendium of 117 poems relating to Basquiat's life, individual paintings, and social

themes found in the artist's work. He published a “remix” of the book in 2005. In 2005, poet M.K. Asante, Jr. published the poem “SAMO,” dedicated to Basquiat, in his book Beautiful. And Ugly Too. In film Basquiat starred in Downtown 81, a verité movie that was written by Glenn O’Brien and shot by Edo Bertoglio in 1981, but not released until 1998. In 1996, seven years after the artist's death, a biographical film titled Basquiat was released, directed by Julian Schnabel, with actor Jeffrey Wright playing Basquiat. David Bowie played the part of Andy

Warhol. Schnabel was interviewed during the film's

script development as a personal acquaintance of

Basquiat. Schnabell then purchased the rights to the project, realizing that he could make a better film. A 2009 documentary film, Jean-Michel Basquiat: The Radiant Child, directed by Tamra Davis, was first screened as part of the 2010 Sundance Film Festival and was shown on the PBS series Independent Lens in 2011. Basquiat, a Life, a film by Jean Michel Vecchiet, in 2010

Basquiat sold his first painting in 1981, and by 1982,

spurred by the Neo-Expressionist art boom, his work

was in great demand. In 1985, he was featured on the cover of The New York Times Magazine in connection with an article on the newly exuberant

international art market; this was unprecedented for an African-American artist, and for one so young. Since Basquiat's death in 1988, his market has

developed steadily – in line with overall art market

trends – with a dramatic peak in 2007 when, at the

height of the art market boom, the global auction

volume for his work was over $115m. Brett Gorvy,

deputy chairman of Christie's, is quoted describing Basquiat's market as “two-tiered. [...] The most

coveted material is rare, generally dating from the best period, 1981–83.” Until 2002, the highest money paid for an original

work of Basquiat's was US$3,302,500, set on

November 12, 1998 at Christie's. In 2002, Basquiat's Profit I (1982), a large piece measuring 86.5"/220 cm by 157.5"/400 cm, was set for auction again at

Christie's by drummer Lars Ulrich of the heavy metal band Metallica. It sold for US$5,509,500. The proceedings of the auction are documented in the film Some Kind of Monster. In 2008, at another auction at Christie's, Ulrich sold a 1982 Basquiat piece, Untitled (Boxer), for US $13,522,500 to an anonymous telephone bidder.

Another record price for a Basquiat painting was

made on in 2007, when an untitled Basquiat work

from 1981 sold at Sotheby's in New York for US $14.6 million. In 2012, for the second year running, Basquiat was the most coveted

contemporary (i.e. born after 1945) artist at auction, with €80m in overall sales. That year, his Untitled (1981), a painting of a haloed, black-headed man with

a bright red skeletal body, depicted amid the artist's

signature scrawls, was sold by Robert Lehrman for

$16.3 million, well above its $12 million high estimate. A similar untitled piece, also undertaken in 1981 and formerly owned by the Israel Museum, sold for £12.92 million at Christie's London, setting a world auction record for Basquiat's work.

Also looking at the contemporary music scene and other auxiliary facets of post-modernist deconstruction sub-culture art scene,his influence and overall impact has been noticeably commandable and awe-inspiring.

Shouts out to Basquiat..

#RealTalk: Cathartic Hopkins Blog Therapy

Umm.. It's been a while since,umm??

It doesn't really matter that much.. I guess but umm.. Just some stuff is still hella weird..thinking about and being a part of.

There isn't a lot of exploration going on that much as far as HipHop goes and just music in general,I think people carelessly throw terms like ‘experimental’;‘alternative’;

‘progressive’ rather quite candidly without doing anything excitingly challenging without pop culture references and stuff. I've become weary and tired and  umm.. BORED!

I don't even think people listen to music anymore or even read books or anything for that matter. This vapidly insipid age of information anarchy and revisited pastimes offers nothing stimulating nor challenging or exciting but we definitely living in boring exciting times though considering the evolution of hiphop/rap indie/DIY aesthetic ethics and what has dubiously earned the insouciant term~ ‘COOL’ from insulated cubical television defined ‘Swagged-Out’ test-tube babies in feminine tight pants and questionable colourful 80s gear.

I think whatever lacks a sense of History about its own traditions and growth desperately needs to call into question its own sense of being and progression as a people and creative unit but then now we are dealing with an insatiable monster of trend consumerism and homo-erotic jiggyfication and sensual fixations with liberal politeness and fake vaginal soft smiley poker face responses to Satan’s mutinous rebellion against the World.

Fuck being nolstagic about shit too..

Fuck the past,we could always learn from it but then when it has such a hold on us that it even holds us back from growth and progression and embracing the future or any other way of doing things besides the traditional dogmatic pattern,it becomes burdensome and BORING!

He is a man of many names, beyond that he is a man of interesting Tales. He is commonly known as Sir Mainly Hopkins but others know him as The MultipleXXX(multiplex), he has many other stage aliases 

(like.. Jonathan Asmodeus Wolfgang; Charlie Skillz; 

George Looney; Scary Truemann; Dr.Jigsaw;The Evilman Monstah; Thedevilzmindsky!),but that is for when he takes on the stage. He was born in South Africa but made his international mark in 

Australia,[and other scattered parts of Europe and desert lands of the Americas and Japan]. Sir Mainly Hopkins is an Occult Nerd Hip Hop artist, his journey of the south has him infusing international music taste to feed the ear of about anyone whose purpose is to hear.  

 

Occult Nerd Hip Hop artists are mainly confused to being in the secret society due to their information used in their tracks. Mainly these artists chose this path in order to inform the public of what they thought they knew, beyond the fact that the artists promoting the genre are mostly unsigned, Sir Mainly Hopkins signed himself into Murder Channel Musik also known as [Untitled]Humanoid Rekordingsz. His focus is mainly on the sciences of the world, from voodoo to the simply [complex] kabbala.  He is also a proud admirer of the 666 movement and the story of Baphomet, though one cannot say he’s a devil worshipper.  

 

Having worked with producers like Vou,Madlib [..MF D00m,

el-p,aesop rock 

(of DefJux),BiggJus(aka Company Flow’s Justoleum),C-plex(J23),

(K00L KEITh),K.NINE,zebb.i.maxx (aka Joseph Mangla),and [Rayczar] just to name a few, he sure is looking on making sure Occult Nerd Hip Hop gets its spot in this choosy world we live in. In most cases, Occult Nerd Hip Hop artists aren’t in it for the fame or the money. It is like a scientist researching for a cure, Occult Nerd Hip Hop artists are in it to inform the world, to teach the world through music and to make sure that the word hears their tales.

 

With intriguing art work, unmatchable knowledge and a love for his work, Sir Mainly Hopkins has set the stage for more artists to come, and he is always going to be the leader and maker of the new school of Occult Nerd Hip Hop. He hasn’t released a solid project yet[?],but his music is currently scattered on the net, from audiomack, reverbnation to soundcloud and other online music stores, make sure to find him and tie down yourself to the imminence and radient sounds of the Occult Nerd Hip Hop prince of darkness..

Perform with all your heart your long and heavy task...
Then as do I,say naught,
but suffer and die."
